Show Your Work 2004

Dylan Couper · January 8th, 2004, 11:44 PM

Nice C4 Matt.

I've got one in black. :)

Kevin King · January 9th, 2004, 12:40 PM

Once again, outstanding work. Had a very good behind the scenes feel, but still showed off almost as a music video in and of itself. I liked the fast cuts at the begining. The "get the camera off me" verbal was cut a bit short, but candit comments are always hard (how is it that just as someone says something brillient, someone makes a loud noise or otherwise ruins your audio in the background??)

Anyway, very inspiring, and as always with your work, the video quality was very good and fitting.

Thanks for sharing.

what do you think?

Alex Taylor · January 10th, 2004, 03:38 PM

If you get rid of the spaces in between those [url] tags we'll be able to click on it :)

The video is really nice. The whole thing has really good pacing and visuals, very tightly put together. It's short enough so it holds your attention the whole time as well!

Same thoughts here. Nice, fast, looking good!

I moved your thread to our "see my work" section.

Steve Franco · January 12th, 2004, 08:56 AM

Great job on that reel. I enjoyed the layers you added to the video. What software did you guys use on it? Was that done on after effects?

I enjoyed the way that the reel ended with the slow-mo and the the beeping sounds.

:)

Alfred Tomaszewski · January 13th, 2004, 04:49 AM

it was editing using only final cut pro 3. thank you very much all of you for your kind words.

John Gaspain · January 14th, 2004, 03:14 AM

Bad ass!

John Gaspain · January 14th, 2004, 04:03 AM

looks good, I noticed lots of slow-mo, I didnt really get the feeling of speed tho because of the slo-mo.

You might take some cues from a DVD called "Speed Tribe" its about Lemans racing, check it out!

Rob Lohman · January 14th, 2004, 09:36 AM

I only noticed one slowmo shot I think and I liked that one
personally. Overal very nice, and nice angles indeed! Liked the
camera at the back of the bike too. Did thought it was a bit
too long for my taste though.

Ryan Morris · January 17th, 2004, 07:35 PM

This most recent paying gig, done to promote an upcoming technology levy for a local school disctrict. I had to yield some creative control in some of the portions, but all footage and editing was done with my new PDX-10, Frezzi Mini-Fill, Samson UHF One, G4 450DP and FCP4 and DVDSPro. All said and done just over 100 hours to film, capture, edit and output. Not the most exciting subject matter, but overall the district was very happy so I guess that's all one can ask for in the end.

Rob Lohman · January 18th, 2004, 09:07 AM

I've moved your thread to our "showcase" forum and merged
the two posts into one.

Although I'm on a 2 mbit ADSL line the movie is really unwatchable
for me (a lot of stuttering and waiting in the video) so I only saw
the first 20 seconds or so. Would be great if you could put up a
direct download link.

One note from the opening. If I'm not mistaken you are using the
THX sound. This is probably not "legal". Just so you know.

Ryan Morris · January 18th, 2004, 11:17 AM

You know it's interesting that you bring up the THX soundbite, that was one of the creative decisions made outside my control as was the intro logo and the use of some stock footage shot by others where there were some quality issues from lower end cameras. The argument is that the THX sound was within fair use because it was so short and used without the THX logo. Anyone have a concrete answer? Also, what advice would you have for someone in my position when a client wants changes right near the end of a project, I mean outside of just pulling the plug or causing a client to be really dissatisfied? Thanks!

Ps. sorry about the streaming issues and I think I'll be sticking to more exciting and more self directed/controlled work in the future
