Mr Brightside my last thesis film at Chapman University is almost wrapped! This shoot has been challenging and extremely fun to shoot. A 1940's musical love story is not a typical short film that is made. This is by far the biggest production I have shot but my approach to the cinematography really isn't to different to other films I shoot. The biggest difference is bigger locations. This usually means more powerful lights. Getting into all the locations to do photo boards was also helpful. Every film I shoot I put as much effort into it no matter what the scale.
Everyone on the team is doing...
There is only 1 day left before the final voting for the winner of the Fuelfreedom.org video contest is announced. This video was only posted less then 1 week ago and it has about 1500 views. This video was a challenge in a lot of ways such as working with dogs and having no budget. We also only had a couple days to shoot and edit before it was due. This video and the other video submissions is a great example of how you can make powerful informative commercials with little to no budget and time.
Thanks for everyones help sharing and voting for my commercial. I really appreciate the support...
