Thank you Gentlemen!

It's amazing to think that little clip took 8 hours to build. The FCP filter that I used is a BEAST to work with. It did not really come with an instruction manual, which goofballs like me need.

They sure do take some doing. It would look cool with the background flashing through white to an opening clip then the text fading out

Adrian,

I thought the same thing when I first started working with this plug-in. The other thought I had was an active background (ala Matrix) with this F/X in the foreground.

Paul,

Which plug-in is it?

Paul Sedillo December 16th, 2002 08:22 PM

Check your email regarding the response.

"A Plea to Santa" Micro-Short Film
 
Working with yet another new plug-in, I created this Micro-Short Film:

"A Plea to Santa"
http://www.image-studio.com/movies/santaplea.html
Size - 8.7MB
Length - 25 seconds
Filter used - CGM Film LE

My youngest son is relentless in his quest for a gaming system. So I told him to write a letter to Santa and seek absolution for his poor behavior.

If it works
 
the absolution that is, I want to tak to him! Great clip in the holiday spirit!

Tell the boys I said hi!
Mark

Haw. Cute. The CGM filter does a pretty good "old film" look, too.

(So is he getting his XBox as compensation for his talent role?)

Paul Sedillo December 17th, 2002 09:55 PM

Mark,

Well you know Zachary and how persuasive he can be. You need to post that whacky little short that you created. Very funny stuff.

Ken,

The drive behind making it was to test the new CGM filter. Yes it does have a nice old film look. I shot the footage last night at my oldest son's Christmas concert. Zachary was doing his homework and I was just rolling tape. The footage worked out perfectly for this silly little short.

And no he is not getting an XBox! I am actually looking into getting him a Mac. He is quite the artist, so I wanted to start him up with the right tools. Plus he knows about IMovie, which is much more fun than an XBox.

More holiday goofiness

Not on your life! Wendy would kill me!! (I'll ask the "Talent" for permission)

What short Mark & Paul??? You've peeked my interest here!

Mark and his wonderful wife did a short documentary/Christmas story/house tour for an upcoming family VHS tape. His wife is very funny and gives Mark the business all the way through it. Mark thought it would be funny to leave in her mistakes as opposed to cutting them, which adds to the piece. Knowing Wendy, I don't think she would like this little gem up online. :) Which is a shame!

New Short film - need footage
 
I'm trying to set up a short film based on three songs written by a friend of mine. The songs are: Black veil, Trail of the dead, and Bridge of ghosts. I want to release it as one body of work, but it will basically be three shorts combined into a trilogy. If you have any footage you can "donate" I'd be willing to shoot some stuff for you in return. Scenes don't have to be very long just visually dramatic and related to the theme. B&W is cool, as is color, out of focus, racking focus, whatever. The only constraint is shoot/shot at 4:3. You will get film credit at the very least. I live in Houston near the gulf so if you need "Texas" (horses/cowboys/rodeo/oil wells etc.) or coastal shots I'll be glad to do what ever you need in return.

I have been doing a still photography project in cemetaries for a couple of years and I started shooting video footage in some stunning cemetaries last month (Greenmount, in the heart of Baltimore). If you need any footage shot in a visually stunning cemetary, let me know and I'll shoot it for you in return for footage trade and/or film credit.

I could shoot the whole project in my "backyard" but wanted to expand the idea as much as possible by including something visually completly different than I can shoot here in Texas or in the Baltimore/DC area.

I can email MP3's if you want to preview the songs for ideas of shots etc.

Thanks in advance!
Mark
p.s. I'm going shooting all next week (with a family visit in there somewhere) but will be back by the 28th.

Hey Mark,

Could you be a little more specific for the members what you are looking for?

If you are looking for angry snowboarders, let me know!

Thanks- Nori
