DV Challenge for Honour and Glory #1
 

Come one, come all.

Welcome to the first installment of the DV Challenge for Honour and Glory!

The rules are simple.
-You have <b>10 days</b> from the moment Jeff posts the theme to create and upload a film and post the link in this thread.
-Music must either have the artist's express permission or be original.
-Films will be 3 minutes long excluding closing credits.
-HAVE FUN!

So now we wait for Jeff.

Theme
 

I traveled through the nights on horseback, my friends, with only a torch, and a sword at my side. The journey took me through a dark abyss I care not to speak of. But I emerged triumphant, a messenger from the King, bearing a gift that you await with great patience and fierce anticipation. As I dismount my traveling companion, step before you, and unravel the scroll…

(((trumpets blare)))

(((clearing my throat)))


Your theme is…

FACING THE TRUTH

Or

NOT FACING THE TRUTH


The King included a few reminders:

1. Brainstorm thoroughly. Do not settle for initial impressions. Dig deep.
2. Despite the apparent seriousness, do not ignore the comic possibilities.
3. Loose interpretations are fine. Anything to do with "THE TRUTH".
4. By all means, HAVE FUN!


GO!

Egads!! Only a week....and this weekend is booked, ouch!
Thus the challenge doubles, as I was hoping to be able to work in daylight...LOL...

Excellent theme Jeff....I like it! Don't know what to do with it yet, but I like it!

I thought it was going to be 10 days? More like the DV Challenge....
Can we get 10 days? PLEASE!

You even said 10 days in the original thread... page 1.
Pretty please...

Also, what is the latest that someone can sign up for the challenge?

Thanks,


Mike

that's what i get for posting late at night haha. i'll fix that now.

AWESOME! Thanks, Alex.

That should help us all out a bit more...

I've already got an idea for mine, just not sure if I can get the manpower to pull it off.

*Fingers crossed*

Cool! Thanks, that extra weekend will make a huge difference....

Bob T.

I don't think I'll ever have any manpower...Cept me.

I've got a glimmering of an idea I might be able to pull off with just me, meself, and I, so if weather will co-operate a bit...

Hi.

I'm out of camera for some days.

I'll do my best, though -;)

I'm HOPING to get this shot on Thursday. It all hinges on getting a few people to act in it. I did the last challenge by myself but I can't do that for the idea that I have for this one.

So.. when is this officially due? Sunday night? Monday morning?

Anyone else with any updates on how things are coming along?

Mike

Good question!

I actually took tomorrow, (Thursday), off work to try and shoot...
I've got an idea, a rough script and a location....still trying to figure out some props I need and lighting is an issue...

But...I haven't given up yet!! I'm working Friday and Saturday, but if I get it shot tomorrow, I'll edit on Sunday.

Thank God there is no football this weekend.

Bob T.

I'll be filming something tomorrow. I have a location, my Sister's trusty old camcorder, and a couple of friends who are going to try their hand at acting.

Lighting.... well... I'll have to make use out of what is available.

Good luck guys! Hope to see you at the finish...

Looks very nice. Congrats!

Arrrggggg.....was already behind because my Dad went into intensive care this week...but I thought I'd make it.

Went to the location I wanted to use and NO-GO, just won't work....dang...
Been working my noodle over a new location...nothin' yet.

Got a good story...equipment...props...

Working tomorrow and Saturday....Sunday dash? Maybe...

Bob T.

That's terrible news about your Father. I hope he's okay...
