Flash 8? I think that's what it would be installing, but you'd have to accept.

It wants Flash Player 9. I suggest going to the Adobe site and getting it instead, just to make sure. But remember even they want to add Yahoo Toolbar, so uncheck that box.

After Flash Player 9 is installed, the MySpace stuff works OK.

Not a waste of time at all. Very funny.

Cool tunes.

I'd appreciate any feedback. There's another film on the site that I made in 24 hours.

Guess I should have warned that it's about 8 minutes long.

'refuge' grabs and production journal
 

Hey,

Began production last weekend on a short we are trying to get done before all of us go off to college. (probably not going to happen). Anyway, I am cataloging our escapades through this movie, along with some BTS pics and grabs here: refuge homepage.

And here are the grabs with no CC:

My doc: ¡Sí, Se Puede! (Coming soon to fests!)
 

..Well, it's coming soon to one festival (and one DVD publication), at least.

¡Sí, Se Puede!

I wrapped up work on this documentary in May of this year, but it has just recently gained some recognition.

Focusing on the stories of two everyday undocumented citizens currently working in the US, ¡Sí, Se Puede! is a short documentary highlighting the immigration reform issues debated within the United States.

The doc is also featured on Volume 4 of The Journal of Short Film, releasing August 8. It was also recently accepted to the Newburyport Documentary Film Festival.

The doc was produced with no budget, using a Canon GL-2 (primary cam) and an XL-1. It took approximately two months to complete.

Camera wise, it was an alright documentary. It was informative, but wasn't highly entertaining when it came to cinematography IMHO.

Also, your documentary says that all people should be treated the same, no matter what color or race or religion or WHATEVER. But the problem that I think you missed is the fact that we do treat people the same. Anyone can break the law, whether white or black or mexican or asian. Illegal immigrants want the same rights as Americans. They can have those rights, as long as they enter the country legally. To come here illegally, and ask for rights (and etc) would be like someone from the US going into Mexico illegally and demanding free healthcare and not to be deported. The immigration laws in Mexico are VERY strict.

In your documentary, the man said he is illegal, but not a criminal. I have much sympathy for the man and the millions of other Mexicans because the current state of the country of Mexico is aweful. I just did a missions trip to build a house for a family near Tijuana and it is horrible. Besides the sympathy, I feel that America is being blamed for the problems in Mexico. Instead of demanding rights that could be theirs if they entered legally, undocumented people should demand rights from Mexico, rather than blame the US.

Day two is up.

Those are some good-looking screengrabs!

I haven't checked out your website yet, but I will after I finish this post.

The footage you guys took is beautiful! If these pictures are any indication of the entire production of the movie, I'd say from a visual standpoint, you all did a great job. How'd you light your shots?

Care to reply?

Soul Searcher finally gets released!
 

Finally Soul Searcher, the low budget digital movie shot on an XL1s and XM1 that I served fight choreographer and glidecam duties on is being released in the UK.

Only 4 years in the making! http://www.soulsearchermovie.com

Looks like Neil has crammed an absolute ton of extras in there. So if anyone has an interest in making a film with nothing they will probably be of interest. Hopefully this post wasn't too commercial!
