Show Your Work 2007

Hello everyone!

A buddy of mine and I put together out first commercial. All comments and suggestions are welcome. It was for a small company that makes columns and arches for lanai cages.

Am I missing something here. From the previous comment I was expecting something more along the lines of a music video. All I saw was a joke about a dvd addict who collects more than he can watch. A busted link??

Mark Bournes · October 12th, 2007, 11:59 AM

Yeah saw the same thing, and was really stupid. What music video?

Bert Smyth · October 12th, 2007, 01:52 PM

Really quite good. Great concept. There were only two things that I felt maybe could be changed. I like the fast moving camera work at the start (I realize this was most likely done in post) but once the hand draws, I'd really like to see the movement slowed down so I can appreciate the product. The pan it dissolves to is a nice smooth pan, but because its fairly quick, it feels like its part of the fast moving camera sequence at the start.

The guys voice was good, but sounded a little bassy to me. Nice 30 second spot. I bet the client loved it.

I made a news piece that went out today talking about the rebirth of Hammer Horror who are making their first film in 27 years.

In the spirit of things I filmed a few very camp scenes in the classic Hammer style using the Brevis and CF3, although they are HEAVILY treated in the edit to make them look like badly treated old film.

The Brevis helped a lot to achieve the look I wanted for this.

I warn you, this is unlike a traditional news piece!

Very interesting! It's good to see news pieces done differently.

Bryan Gilchrist · October 13th, 2007, 06:56 PM

Wow! For a first commercial, that was VERY good!

I was expecting to see something along the lines of a standard local car lot commercial.

Bryan Gilchrist · October 13th, 2007, 07:17 PM

The only think I don't like about black and white video is that it looks like black and white video...it doesn't have that old 1950's B/W film look.

Bryan Gilchrist · October 13th, 2007, 09:47 PM

Stop copying me!

Cute... :)

Good stuff you got there!

Nice videos and I even learned something. I never knew that burning wet or green wood would cause a buildup of creosote.

Hi,

Formerly I've seen some of your 48hfp movies here on the boards, and I was pretty impressed with it in general! Now, Since the 48hfp came to Ghent for the first time ever, me and 7 other film students from my class entered the competition, not really knowing what to expect.

I can say it was quite a challenge, but we managed to complete it within the time limit, and we also had heck a lot of fun (and oh so little sleep).

We're also more or less content with the final result, but it would be nice to have some comments from you guys out here.. Maybe also some stories from your 48hfp experience(s)..!? Anyway, here's the link to the movie we made:

..And, just so you know, our obligations were:

Genre: holiday
Charachter: painter
Prop: flashlight
Dialogue: 'Ai pappie'

Tell me what you think..

Thanks!

Here's Paradigm, a 2 minute film that a couple of my friends did. I didn't do any work on this project other than some clean-up editing, but I thought it was great and wanted to get some feedback. It's about a young man who's coming to terms with a death in the family.

Clips look good, but the site seems to be very graphic intensive. Might dissuade those with slower connections from going there.

You use Adobe or VisualLab for your FX?

Bryan Gilchrist · October 15th, 2007, 06:21 PM

Long, drawn out single shots...kind of made it boring. Would have been nice to see multiple angles.
