So this is the first Blog entry I've ever written. I'll be using this to update and post information regarding my Logbook for the Cinematograpy Technology module.
Checked through the online discussion board already and posted links to a number of films that I watched over the summer, all of which will be linked to at the end of this post. Haven't decided yet what to create for the assignment piece but we've only had the one lecture so far, so hopefully will be able to get inspiration soon.
Anyway, here are the links for the films I posted;
'The Cabbie' by Vincent Laforet
Canon and Vimeo teamed up to create a competition called 'The Story Behind The Still', where they gave a still image and asked people to create segments of a film from this image. The films last around 4 minutes and the end of each film must end on a still, so that the next person can take that image and carry on the film and so on....
Vincent Laforet who I only recently heard about from looking into DSLR filmmakers was commissioned to start the competition, and I think he did a brilliant job of it. (The idea behind the Competition)
'Last Minutes with Oden' by phos pictures
This is a short documentary that i also saw in the summer, which is simply and beautifully made. It takes advantage of the Canon 7D's fantastic HD movie mode and I just think it's really well shot.
'The Last 3 Minutes' by Po Chan
Yet another DSLR film that I saw recently, this time shot on the Canon 5D. It just shows how something can be created now that looks so cinematic with tools that are available to almost anyone. The story follows the last minutes of a dying janitor.
