Whadda Think? The trailer video has not been modified from the master.. i.e no color etc. All looks where done with filters on camera.

Rob Lohman · September 9th, 2003, 01:25 PM

That is looking very impressive! Wow.

Keith Loh · September 9th, 2003, 01:47 PM

Count me also impressed.

Mark Monciardini · September 9th, 2003, 07:21 PM

Wow looks great Jarred. Finally some really good work with the DVX. Although you guys have quite a crew too. I'll be the first person watching the whole film.

Ok first I would like to know where I can get a matte box like the one you guys used on this film. 2nd can you share how you created the "orange" look on many of the shots. And 3rd can you tell us what the budget was for this film?

Great work.

Jarred Land · September 9th, 2003, 07:34 PM

Hey, first off I can't take any credit for the look as the DP Todd Williams was responsible for that.. the guy is a ninja.

As for the Mattebox, it was an arri 6x6 with a 4 stage and a 6 stage filter rack, on a short and long pair of rails. You can goto Arri.com and look it up, the setup we used cost about $10,000 for just the mattebox and rails.

We had a Anamorphic adapter (panasonic) a follow focus unit and some hand grips as well.

The filters used where a combination of Yellow, Chocolate, a +3 and +5 ultra con, we had a center spot and a couple ND's as well that didnt really get used.

Budget, well I will try and get the Producer/Director/Writer Nick over here to talk about that.

Jarred Land · September 9th, 2003, 07:55 PM

why was this moved?...?

Chris Hurd · September 9th, 2003, 08:46 PM

I moved it -- this section is "DV for the Masses," to showcase projects such as yours which are intended for public distribution in one form or another. There's a re-direct from the DVX100 technical discussion forum, so anybody looking where you originally posted will always see it in there, also. It's like getting more than double the exposure with a single post... a lot more people will see it here, as it's a very stylish and well done piece that will appeal to a broad majority of our members, not just the DVX users. Plus, with the re-direct link behind it, you get around our no-crossposting rule with even better results. By the way, that's one heck of a nice looking trailer, not to mention the site (mmm... yellow). Hope this helps,

Jarred Land · September 9th, 2003, 08:51 PM

well thanks Chris.. I was a little confused what was going on. And thanks for the compliments!

Charles Papert · September 9th, 2003, 08:57 PM

Looks fabulous Jarred. Great job. My compliments to the DP.

Nick Bicanic · September 9th, 2003, 11:07 PM

Whatever budget we had is not a true reflection of how much things actually cost - point being - while I can of course disclose the number of dollars that were actualy spent...

if you try to do the same thing for the same number of dollars - I can't guarantee that you will succeed.

And yes I'm talking about deferrals, deals, favours, negotiations, cajoling, manipulating, inspiring, listening, leading (oops wait I think they call it producing) etc etc etc.

This cost $10,000 CDN - which is what like $7,300 USD.

It was a 4 day shoot.

Everybody was happy on set.

Beat that.

Nick

Jarred Land · September 9th, 2003, 11:12 PM

I wasnt happy... lol... just kidding :)

Its all about the food... you get good food and it makes the difference. Good food and great people.. that is the ticket.

Mark Monciardini · September 10th, 2003, 12:09 AM

What kind of food did you eat???

Nick Bicanic · September 10th, 2003, 12:16 AM

do you mean catering and craft services ?
we had a really cool craft services guy - who ran around on rollerblades quite often (you can see pictures of him on the site) and catering was provided by a local professional catering company

Jarred Land · September 10th, 2003, 12:31 AM

we had some of the best Chicken I ever have had one day.. and then there was some wierd stuff that was good that I probally woulda never touched in real life... real life? oh boy...

Mark Monciardini · September 10th, 2003, 12:58 AM

$10,000 for the mattebox setup? OH no problem. I'm going out tomorrow and buying one!

Thanks guys for the info. Looks like a much larger budget, you're right. I see you had the makeup artist in there and everything. Actually my wife is a pro at that stuff, I wonder if I could use her on my film. Bingo! hey it's all about favors right? haaa.

Ya I guess if we just break it down and put our minds together you would probably find more people willing to help on a film then you think. I hope I can create something comparable to what you guys did some day. And in 4 days??? wholly taleedo that's pretty darn fast. Wish I could of had some of that rollerblader chicken too. You guys should of called me!

Keep up the great work :-)

p.s. So what now, Sundance?
