Need any chicken footage?

Hi all,
I was digging through some of my test \ learning shots last night and noticed I have some pretty good chicken footage (dont ask!) I seem to have a hidden talent filming roosters!

As my wife and I noted, every movie of any importance has chickens, how about yours?
:)

Oh my, I thought of some funny things I'm going to do with chickens...

One is a short I was going to call "Man who kills with Chickens" :weird:, so far all I have are some silly pictures which I was going to use for a promo picture and about 30seconds of rubber chicken test footage (for a quick trailer). Yes a bit rediculous, but it was going to be a silly slasher film (sort of a spoof) as the main Indie Filmmaker in town does mainly horror films.

So I guess, yes, I could always use some chicken footage...:yes:

This is my favorite thread topic ever.

You are quite wrong, YOU DO NEED CHICKEN footage, I challenge you to find a block buster action movie that DOESN'T have chickens in it! Not having chickens is probably the only thing thats keeping you from being the next Senor Spielbergo.

Well, its more of WHY ON EARTH would I have so much footage of chickens.. :cool:

Basically, its because, generally, they are the only thing moving on the farm when I am trying to learn\test some new technique on my camera. I have some dramatic shallow DOF of a duck that is really quite beautiful..

Sorry for such a pedestrian answer..;)

Actually, that's makes sense, and a pretty good answer. I know who to turn to if I need footage.

I wouldn't have the courage to show some of the stuff that shows up on my test footage....:weird::lol:

Chicken Footage Request

Well I could use some chicken footage of a guy in the middle of the night (or day where I'll colour correct it to night) dress in full black sneaks in and stealthily steals a chicken (or rooster).

And some random number of camera angled shots of a Chicken(s) footage on an even ground colour so I can import the chicken into various location shots (rather then running around with a chicken).

Also having a chicken walk into the sunset would be cool (except then you have to get the chicken back!)

A good amount of haunting clucks would also be cool.

Not sure when i'll do the project, but its always nice to have some footage in your back pocket.

lol. Well I want to start out with like a timelapse sunrise and then some pics of them as kids and then together before they were married. And they just started raising a bunch of chickens in their backyard so I thought it would be cool to put some chicken footage in there, too :)
