    archived-videos Midnight Cookie

    After a while without having done much we got together with just a team of three people and created this little comedy short. I wanted to do it without using words but still be dynamic. On the day of the shooting we had many "loses" so we ended up with 3 people having to act, setup lights...

    archived-videos Monkey Blindness II: The wool menace

    This is the second part to Monkey Blindness. This film was made for fun while we were looking for locations and ideas for our next project.

    archived-videos The dangers of soul migration

    This was just a test to see if it was possible to pass through people for another story. I just setup the camera on 3 situations and improvised what was going to happen, so there's no story line. I used the light as it was, and it was changing rather quick due to being near the evening. So I...

    archived-videos Like a Butterfly

    Here is our latest film. Our best project so far. The whole film was shot in one day and edited in 3 days, so we are also proud of that too. We had 2 cameras, a semi professional and a normal HD camera. We use the later very little for the final cut due to the difference of quality, still some...

    archived-videos Monkey Blindness (my personal editing nightmare)

    This is something that I put together during a day in my holidays. The story was written the same morning, with the intention to be simple and no complex plots... to say something about it. The footage I had was pretty bad as I had to also be helped by children, which means entertain them. And...

    archived-videos The Move - My first (and maybe last) stunt

    This was our third short. In this one we wanted to try a couple of new things: stunts, and using green screen to get a hit. I think that these two were pretty ok. The script isn't that great, we didn't review it enough. And the audio needed improvement. But we only have one camera guy with a...

    Ok, this is no award winning video, not even close. So you understand the background, we were going to meet for a day shooting but my fellow actor friend couldn't come. So while having a coffee we were watching videos about how to recreate car crashes. With a rush of silliness we thought of this...

    This is the first music video that we did fully ourselves. I just asked a friend of mine if he wanted us to make a video for one of his songs. He proposed "close your eyes", considering that the song doesn't have lyrics, this is what it inspired. With only one normal HD cam, basic lighting...

    archived-videos Time flies (An amateur attempt)

    This time around our camera/editor man wasn't available. But in order to keep momentum and because passion goes over talent, we decided to still film and edit this little film ourselves. We tried to film it on a TV sketch style, so it's pretty simple. Still we learnt a lot about filming angles...
