I "compete" with myself in that I try to one-up my previous work on each new project. It doesn't always happen, but that's the hope anyway. Film festivals, contests and competitions have their place and serve a purpose; rarely for monetary gains, sometimes for that "stamp of approval" from...

"Slate for Sarah" via CNN http://www.cnn.com/2014/02/26/showbiz/slates-for-sarah-elizabeth-jones/index.html

Yep yep. :yes: This is pretty much where I am and where I'm at. If some notoriety finds me or one of my projects catches on with a wider audience, I won't turn down that ticket to ride. In the meanwhile, I'm just tinkering as an enthusiastic hobbyist and trying to produce work that I, and anyone...

Cracker, the both of us are working on "trippy" videos simultaneously. :cool: Don't think I'll be going down the fractal rabbit hole, although those Cyriak examples are pretty wild and well done. I'm incorporating some layers of video feedback which could be considered 80s trippy? Ever mess...

Keep us updated with progress if you can. All the best to you!

At this point in life, I would actually rather have a house, even if it is that small. Well... OK, maybe not that small. And a job, too. A full-time job. That would be nice. :rolleyes:

Set design for music videos is something I can agonize, deliberate and obsess over for weeks on end and still feel there was room for improvement. If it's worth doing, isn't it worth doing well? Why does the band need to get this thing shot so hastily? Why is this a rushed project? Are they...

When I worked at a video store back in the mid- to late 90s, come February 2nd we would play Groundhog Day ALL day on the in-store TVs. SO much fun! :D I hope he and John Hughes are together enjoying what the afterlife has to offer!

I tend to agree with this since what approach might work for a hip-hop track wouldn't necessarily be the same for a country or indie song. For me, it mostly comes down to the tone of the music and the personality of the artist. Sure, having some interesting fabric and stuff falling from above...

:lol::lol::D I don't know about you folks, but I'm pretty burned out with this thread. Might be time to deliver the extinguishing blow?? POOF!!!

That's a tragic thing to happen to anyone. Hindsight is 20/20... but man... equipment and props can all be replaced. People can't. Leave it and get to everyone to safety. Sadness.

>>a spec script is a blueprint. :yes: I tend to feel similarly; the trick is crafting an incredibly detailed blueprint and finding the right producer, prodco or director who can visualize the end result. ** maz, sent you a PM re: that cold open

Sounds fun and ambitious! Music video? Short? So it'll be a combination of shrinking the greenscreened human actors to fit the miniatures and puppets and enlarging the puppets to fit human scale sets as well?

Likewise! :bow: I need to see El Topo at some point. I've seen Santa Sangre (twice?) and Holy Mountain, which is an incredible film. As an unabashed Lynch fan, I liked a lot of what he did with Dune, but in many ways he was a bit out of his element and probably wasn't best suited for the...

I'm definitely looking forward to this one. :yes: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q-oBEGF7uwE Anyone here seen it already?

:lol: :lol: You guys have sparked my resolve. Now I'm all fired up to shoot more! :angry:

:lol: Yeah, some would agree that it's gone up in smoke. * while others might argue it went down in flames...

Snuffing candles! :eek: Just a lighting and slo-mo test... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W22B2kehh8c Camera: GH2 (unhacked) Lens: 50mm NLE: Premiere Footage: 1280x720 60p Shutter Speed: 1000 ISO: 3200 (I think. If not it was 1600) First clips slowed down to 40%, second clips slowed down 20%...

Just when you thought it was safe to say "No one loves me..." :redgrin:

Yep. Got their email. Thanx.
