MUST be in all caps just to be clear

**SageTree** · 05-30-2011, 10:30 AM

No idea what is happening.
I like the music in the back so that the other tones are more apparent/magnified.
I like the back ground of him walking outside after the hospital scene.

Good shit man.... what's it about?

Über King · 05-30-2011, 11:32 AM

erm its 5 minite film, about this guy, who find his estranged father on his deathbed, he tells him about nightmares he had as a kid, the father dies, and then he goes and has a little existential moment on a beach at the end.

meh i didnt write it.

Über King · 05-30-2011, 11:39 AM

also, i really want to put the finished film online, but i cant cause we have to get it copyrighted, and sort out what festivals we want to send it to (if any will accept us)

osirus2020 · 05-30-2011, 03:42 PM

It's broke.

Xil · 05-30-2011, 03:54 PM

no its not

Cambium · 05-30-2011, 10:10 PM

It's nice and clear, easy to watch.

The Don · 05-30-2011, 11:34 PM

I would change "A LLC prod..." to "an LLC"

Sorta of like how "hour" is "an hour" and not "a hour"

THe L sound is kinda vovel-i. "el"

it took a lot of effort not to point this out.

i dont know why but it always bugs the shit outta me. and im no grammar nazi

Über King · 05-31-2011, 03:52 AM

yeah i got to say it bothered me aswell, but i didn't actually know the rule. I know its 'an' if you put it infront of a word beginning with a vowel. but 'L' isnt? but it sounds like one? argh grammar fail

The Don · 05-31-2011, 04:00 AM

It's what it sounds like. If it sounds like a vowel, you use "an"

Examples, consonants:

A Love So Great That...

A Night to remember...

Example, vowels:

An Hour In To The Mining

Well I can only think of that one..

I'm sorry I don't have anything to say about the video itself, the audio isn't working for me for some reason.

clive · 05-31-2011, 08:52 AM

looked very professional Uber well done.

The Don · 05-31-2011, 09:27 AM

Word it does

What was your role in the production über?

adventure · 05-31-2011, 09:27 AM

yes it looks very professional, nice work!

Xil · 05-31-2011, 11:14 AM

can't say the plot sounds all that interesting (i've got pretty unrefined tastes), but the camerawork from the preview looks really nice, captures the mood well

I was Cinematographer.

so i worked with the director on the shot list, chose the 16mm stock we would shoot on etc, did all the camera operating, and was in charge of the lighting.

in post production i had a lot of input in the grading aswell.

Über King · 05-31-2011, 11:48 AM

also, a cinematographer could also be called a Director of Photography. im not sure which term i prefer :/

The Don · 05-31-2011, 11:56 AM

Cool beans bro.

I would definetly say Director of Photography.

Über King · 05-31-2011, 05:00 PM

yeah, the issue i have with DOP though is that it claims too much authorship. DOP seems to imply that it is the DOP only that is responsible for creating images, but film making is always a collaboration.
