    archived-videos My first short film "Chá para dois" "Tea for two"

    I understand what you are trying to say and agree with you on most things. I'm going to try and re-edit it with a 4 minute limit. I guess i got too caught up trying to emulate refn's style. (yes i know he doesn't show long scenes of a character doing trivial things but there's a lot in his...

    archived-videos My first short film "Chá para dois" "Tea for two"

    While im going to try and do a re-edition with a 3/4 minutes of running time limit just for experience sake, i must tell you that the short ended up almost as i had envisioned it. I like things slow, i already had to control myself in order to get a 12min running time. And if i cut more, i don't...

    I know nothing about anything

    Thanks, and i already did that and would love some feedback. I filmed in b&w with my shitty cellphone without recording any audio. 99% of the audio was downloaded online except for the 3 lines i recorded myself. It's bad but it really gave me some insight on what went wrong and what i need to do...

    archived-videos My first short film "Chá para dois" "Tea for two"

    My first short film (in portuguese) called "Tea for two". This is the first time i've tried to really film something and i also had never edited a video before. I only made it to start gaining experience. I used a Nokia 5800, filmed in black & white with nothing but a shitty small lamp...

    I know nothing about anything

    Guys btw yesterday i watched Pusher from Nicolas Refn for the second time and i payed special attention to the lighting or the lack of it. Did he shoot the movie without using any "special" lights or whatever ? The only source of light i spotted was either the sun or the normal house lights...

    I know nothing about anything

    So several lamps using 10-20w bulbs and natural light (when possible) will do ? Yes you're right, i just got a major lack of confidence. And it doesnt help that i have to ask people to come n' help since i have no camera, asking someone to help you and then look silly in front of them without...

    I know nothing about anything

    I want to start making my own short films but besides having ZERO experience i know nothing about anything, literally. I have several scripts but im focusing on one that i can shoot in my house with just one actor due to being simple. Thing is i don't know what lighting i need, i don't know if...
