I like how gritty and grungy it is. The sound is cool also. My only criticism is its dark as all hell. Footage needs color correcting. This is a decent tutorial http://greyscalegorilla.com/blog/tutorials/how-to-color-correct-footage-from-your-5d-or-7d-with-after-effects/ Tell her to keep it up the video is neat.

With that being said, really liked the steady camera and shaky when needed. The red head is hot as hell, Zombie should have ripped her tank top a little bit. Some shots made me cringe(in a good way). The monster at the end had gross make up. good job when the guy gets stabbed in the belly. Nice work.

My band has long aspired to make a "tv" show. We finally started working on it for real and released the first episode last week, aiming to make an Adult Swim style 12 minute episode, with a new theme for each episode. The first episode is "Fashion" -- https://vimeo.com/capeandchalice/wizztv01 We shot, edited, and made the music for everything in here (outside of the stock footage used in one segment). There are definitely a lot of improvements we are aware of and working on for episode 2 (sound is a huge one), but I'm really pleased with how this turned out. It's the first video we've made (other than some shorts used for projection during out sets), so a hell of a learning experience all around. edit: since some people like to know these things. We all happen to be goons. Asnorban fucked around with this message at 00:43 on Jul 2, 2013 |

I and my crew attended to the annual U48 (Sleepless 48) film competition this year. It's one of those "make a film from start to beginning in 48 hours". On ours, we were given the task to do a spy film, and to include a character who's an "inventor". This is what we came up with: http://youtu.be/kUhrY8hWPk8 I wanted to have a really heavy retro/neon look, kind of inspired by Hotline Miami and Universal Soldier: Day of Reckoning. I think it turned out pretty well. The version on the net is a bit more refined than the one we sent to the competition; biggest difference is the image filtering, which there was none on the original piece. Here it's the way I wanted it to look from the beginning. Also, I wanted to reinstate the violence we had to tone down originally; the comp movies had to be rated 12 or under. Feedback would be welcome

A smug sociopath posted:Feedback would be welcome I really dig this! It does has a roughness to it but that's probably thanks mostly to the rushed schedule and otherwise it's very tight and fun and extremely good to look at. The fades felt a little weird, though, and the club scene looks great but the visual topography is kind of wonky, there wasn't a lot to indicate that they were having a clandestine meeting and not sitting directly across from each other. You also really need music there.

Thanks! The fades are something that kind of annoys me as well, I usually tend to avoid them as much as possible, but ended up having to rely on them here. It was kinda my bad, I neglected to do pickup shots in the heat of the production, and we ended up not having time to do exterior inserts of the "Laboratory". It's the nature of the beast, I guess, a lot of the current flaws would've been easily avoided with just a little more time spent. The club scene as a whole is another thing that I think suffered a little from that. We did all the interior scenes at our studio, and the "club" was literally just a 2 square meter area covered in black molton and set up with some vinyls and neon lights

Friends and I made a short mockumentary while vacationing in Wisconsin last month. Though not remarkably original (another fake inside-the-music band story), I'm really happy with the performances, pacing, and ridiculousness of the story. Here is Black Hearts Bleeding Black, Featuring Marcus Misery and The Sorrow: https://vimeo.com/75896324

Just helped a friend of mine with a test scene for the feature he's writing. Shot it all in a car parked in a garage, but I think they did an OK job with the lighting, convincing enough for me! I acted (the one behind the wheel) and did the music for it. The other actor is also the writer/director in his first screen outing. http://vimeo.com/69708665 Give it a look, let me know what you think. Sound is a little sketch in parts, but otherwise I think it's ok.

This is a teaser trailer for a series I wrote that my friend edited together. I think it turned out pretty cool, especially shooting on the budget we had (none). Feedback is always appreciated, though I'm sure most of it will be geared towards making fun of me for being a huge nerd. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2Cu6FTWe8fY

https://vimeo.com/60764261 password: gasoline Our short got shown at the Franklin Institute two weeks ago in an Emerging Directors series. We also got shown at the Trocadero in Chinatown. I since have entered it into a few other festivals and my confidence is building a little bit. If it gets accepted, I'm going to push harder. Would love some more folks to take a look at it.

I'm trying to be more consistent with my film stuff now that I'm graduated, so I'll hopefully be posting stuff regularly. I wrote a script and did storyboards, but once we started shooting, we just weren't feeling it, so we decided to toss the script and just wing it. Given that, I think it's pretty cool. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oID-LM8yiKI

So every year, the Asian American Film Lab (AAFL), a non-profit that promotes diversity in film and TV, hold a filmmaking competition called the 72-Hour Shootout, in which teams have 72 hours to make a short film incorporating a specific theme. The top ten selections are then screened at the Asian American International Film Festival (AAIFF) in NYC. I just found out about AAFL this past year, and consequently entered the Shootout for the first time this year as well. The circumstances under which our team came together were completely crazy but clearly purposeful, and though it the first time most of us worked together (the crew had worked together, though informally), we thought we came up with something pretty good, especially considering we had less than 72 hours to make it. I thought it was a great experience, but with the sheer number of competitors, didn't expect anything more from it. I was content merely with the experience, the networking, and the exposure to the judges, who included a commercial agent at a big agency here in NYC and the executive director of casting for ABC. Well, today was the screening at AAIFF, and the top ten films screened--among which was my team's entry, "Drawing Lines"! The winners weren't announced ahead of time, so everyone found out at the same time, at the screening itself. This is the first time I've ever had a film in a film festival, and it is absolutely exhilarating. I seriously don't know what to do with myself. Like I keep standing up to DO something and sitting back down again because I don't know what to do first. Compounding on this is the fact that my agent just called and told me I booked a role I just auditioned for a series on the Discovery network. I don't think he could tell how excited I was because I was still reeling from the film festival news, which came less than two hours before that! ANYWAY, we can't make it PUBLIC public yet because we're still submitting it to festivals, but here's a private link to our film, "Drawing Lines". The theme was "A Guest In My Own Country". http://www.vimeo.com/67605082, password "Lastman". I come in at around 3:50.

I wrote the script for this short film and a friend of mine directed it. It played in a local film festival and is now available online. "Hate" http://vimeo.com/70186048 For me it marks the first time I've had someone else make a film I wrote, and I realized that I like just being the writer. (technically I'm credited as line producer as well, but I didn't really do much) As a result I started doing more writing for other people and currently have four short scripts that are in various stages of pre-pro, each with a different director and producers, so I'll hopefully be posting those soon as well.

My friend and I are trying to do a community webproject, basically a shared setting that we’d like others use to make their own creative works. We haven’t had a large outpouring, but we have had a few different videos made. It’s called Not One Zombie, and the idea is to make zombie themed fiction without ever showing a zombie on-screen. Honestly, it all started as a frustration with the oversaturation of the genre coupled with a bad experience at a film festival where the headline film was a piece of garbage. I think it's kind of a neat creative challenge to make compelling stories without being able to fall back on all the blood, gore, shotguns, and chainsaws. Here are the ones that we’ve made: The Boys- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MiowIStIjQU&list=TLSnZqoWf8oJY Our first and longest short. Lots of cursing. Pestilence Blues- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BOeKnPnOFhY&list=TL6VDaLLig3mI Second effort. Lots Caste- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qiLS2heuk64&feature=c4-overview&list=UUynLgSG6ccydvof7iNdPuAg Our most recent. Right now, we’re working on pre-production for the next short, and I’m pretty excited about it. These are all zero-budget works, hopefully building up enough of a portfolio to get some interest in either funding future films or submissions from other people. We’re all pretty amateur, but we’re learning a lot as we go, most importantly, we all enjoy the poo poo out of it.

My newest is now available for online viewing: "Go Scratch: A Dreamer's Documentary" (2012, 21 minutes) http://vimeo.com/55300701 Fate, chance, karma, reality and art collide in a social experiment about four women, one hundred lottery tickets and a million dreams just a lucky scratch away. Mixing fact, fiction, scripted scenes, improvisation and chance, "Go Scratch" straddles the gulf between what's real and what's faked to get at the heart of something true.

Here's a short I DP'd and edited last year called Rendezvous: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HA94k4NTEUw Another guerilla shoot that had us with no lights, horrible wind, and super rushed because the director had to go back to Canada the next day. On a brighter note, I just quit my job and am going to be working nearly full time on shorts. It'll be great to actually get a chance to actually be able to focus on a project instead of rushing through it like always.

I made a 1 minute short for a contest RIFF is holding https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YUIybgpKxnQ It's a bit incoherent but that's mostly because I went with the very first idea I came up with, I also gave it a very pretentious name because the short barely fits the theme of "air" and the name means both "air" and "spirit" the latter meaning actually having some connection with what happens in the short. e: It's a poop joke FreudianSlippers fucked around with this message at 22:51 on Sep 14, 2013 |

Hey film folks! I've decided to release my short film I shot early last year here in Vancouver, BC. It did the festival circuit and won an award from the CANADA INTERNATIONAL FILM FESTIVAL. I would love for you folks to sit back, crack a beer and give it a shot. Please, share the link, post on Facebook, I could use any exposure as it is going live and public for the first time today. I have a couple exciting projects in the works and I can't wait to share them with you. For now, please enjoy. Feel free to ask me any questions or critique the film. It is not a perfect film, as it was my first, but I learnt a lot and would love to share more about it with you. I work in the film industry here in Vancouver, BC and am lucky to have a job that allows me to fund these projects, hoping for a big break one day. "The comforts of home are sacred, sweet and beloved. Mark had all of that... a beautiful wife, an angelic daughter, a purpose. His role was simple: To provide and protect. There was just one problem. Mark never learned how to stand up for himself. He lacked self-confidence and avoided confrontation for his entire life. For the most part, his fears went unnoticed and he was able to cloak his nervousness, until the day that everything around him changed. Mark finds himself in the middle of a very dark and terrifying predicament and is left with only one choice. He can stand up and fight, or lay down and die." Shot in Vancouver BC with lots of local talent and professional industry crew such as the Director of Photography, Peter Wilke (2012, Rise of the Planet of the Apes, A-Team). It won a CANADA INTERNATIONAL FILM FESTIVAL Royal Reel Award, and was an Official Selection for New Orleans Horror Film Festival, Midnight Black Festival of Darkness and London Best Shorts. Shot on the Panavision Genesis camera, the film oozes production value and ends with a very satisfying finale. IF YOU ENJOY THIS FILM, PLEASE HELP US OUT AND UPVOTE ON REDDIT: http://redd.it/1p34d1 PLEASE WATCH IN HD AND FULLSCREEN https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q3oYQBivk1o

Not a short film, but a 30s teaser to get people interested in something my alma mater is doing: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gOl1jksfXtg They're the only university based team in the international Google Lunar X Prize competition. The first (non-governmental) team to land a probe on the moon by 2015 wins $20 million. Penn State has a serious team and a good shot at winning but even studnets/alumni don't know about it. This video is supposed to play at home football games on the jumbotron in the stadium to get people's attention. Let me know what you think. I did everything but the music.

It's cool. But, honestly- and this is probably just a personal preference-, I'm not crazy about the slow text reveal image text reveal format. Especially when it's just one word at a time. It'll probably play well on a jumbotron, though.

This is the film I made with my friends for the 48 hour National Film Challenge last weekend. My group was comprised of mostly university students, and I ended up directing. Unfortunately due to a technical error we submitted just after the official cut off time. The silver lining in this is that we can legally share it without waiting for clearance! Hope you like it!
