We just call it a short film to promote our short film festival;</p> <p><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sEF9yHpmWPs" rel="nofollow">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sEF9yHpmWPs</a></p> http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/the-olympia-awesome-film-festival-or-oaff#post-64116 Fri, 10 Dec 2010 14:14:52 +0000 KenzoFKC 64116@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p>Thanks birdcat, glad you dug it!  I was a bit worried about people not being able to get past the first 30 seconds.  I'll risk it.  The motivation behind this commercial is a direct response to our town's local film festival.  They've been running for 20+ years in a historic theater downtown.  We submitted a couple of decent shorts to the short film portion of their week long festival.  They didn't accept our shorts, and some of the stuff they did accept looked like the first 30 seconds of this commercial.    </p> <p>Our purpose with OAFF is to provide a venue for filmmakers and movie watchers to see something in our community that isn't intentionally crappy for the sake of "art."  Maybe I'm just bitter?  I don't know... maybe.  But I also recognize good fillmmaking, and my town is long overdue for a different film festival.   </p> http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/the-olympia-awesome-film-festival-or-oaff#post-64106 Thu, 09 Dec 2010 10:31:08 +0000 birdcat 64106@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p>I loved it!</p> <p>Actually, it started out with the sound of my jaw hitting the floor and my thinking "how can I put this..." when you guys walked on screen.  I hope you don't get too many subs like the first 30 seconds!</p> <p>Great!</p> http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/the-olympia-awesome-film-festival-or-oaff#post-64081 Wed, 08 Dec 2010 11:37:31 +0000 KenzoFKC 64081@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p>Here's a short commercial we just made to solicit submissions - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TS2dPC6f_4s</p> http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/the-olympia-awesome-film-festival-or-oaff#post-63261 Thu, 04 Nov 2010 19:06:35 +0000 KenzoFKC 63261@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p>Hello all,  my production team Mutually Assured Productions has decided to host a film festival in Olympia Washington.  We've been planning for months now, and are launching our website.</p> <p><a href="http://www.oaff.org" rel="nofollow">http://www.oaff.org</a></p> <p>The festival will be a one day event on March 5th 2011.  We will be showcasing short films of 15 minutes or less.

Only use transitions if it absolutely carries the story.  Continue to share your work.  Appreciate it.  </p> <p>Check out my video (first music video as well) on vimeo/shootatwill(free your soul).  You may want to check out Vimeo's different format recommendations for the audio and frame rate to make sure you don't go off sync.  I go with 30fps and 48khz and everything works fine for me.</p> <p>Best of luck on your next project! </p> <p>Will</p> http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/music-video-2#post-48822 Tue, 07 Jul 2009 05:12:37 +0000 daryldrj 48822@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p> Liked the seconds one best good job nice song by the way </p> http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/music-video-2#post-48818 Mon, 06 Jul 2009 23:32:04 +0000 KenzoFKC 48818@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p>Sweet.  Thanks guys.</p> http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/music-video-2#post-48796 Mon, 06 Jul 2009 07:56:52 +0000 Tom Skowronski 48796@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p> very clean looking. good work</p> http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/music-video-2#post-48767 Sun, 05 Jul 2009 07:57:54 +0000 starcityfame 48767@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p>very cool!! nice pleasing blends. i have done the live music thing but also looking to shoot my first studio music video (maybe this week). hope i have as good results.<br /> cheers! </p> http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/music-video-2#post-47848 Sun, 14 Jun 2009 10:37:44 +0000 SargeHero 47848@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p>I really like the second one. The colors becomes part of the music, Good job. I like the way it its and the song its good.</p> http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/music-video-2#post-47840 Sat, 13 Jun 2009 18:34:18 +0000 KenzoFKC 47840@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p>Thanks for checking the videos out EarlC.</p> <p>I am partial to the second edit myself. Interesting, after I finished the first, I thought it was great, didn't want to do another. I'm not really big into filters or FX, the manager said "Well, the girls are young, and so are most of their fans, so go nuts!" So I did, and I ended up liking it more than the original.</p> <p>I've had difficulty with vimeo too.  The second edit won't play properly at all on vimeo, the audio is totally out of synch. It's just awful. Youtube has made leaps and bounds with their quality recently, so my aversion to them may be evaporating.</p> <p>Once again, thanks for looking!</p> http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/music-video-2#post-47831 Sat, 13 Jun 2009 00:39:07 +0000 EarlC 47831@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p>Kenzo, enjoyed the clip. The second "treated" production is much more creative and pleasing to the eye IMHO. Also, I could not get clear, clean audio (jitters and judders throughout) on the first clip, so went to the second and it played audio nice, clear, clean and smooth. I have often run into experiences with Vimeo where the audio doesn't play back smoothly, dunno why, and haven't tried to figure out why. I just know it happens more often than I think it should.</p> <p>The clips, however, are well produced. You did well and should be proud. I dunno that there's anything I'd have done differently, and yeah I put my time in on garage bands, and other musical talents, including production of a number of musical instructional videos. Not a music aficianado but I get by :-)</p> http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/music-video-2#post-47829 Fri, 12 Jun 2009 23:16:16 +0000 KenzoFKC 47829@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p>Oh, well, apparently you don't use embed code, you just copy the url.  Nice.</p> http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/music-video-2#post-47828 Fri, 12 Jun 2009 22:56:15 +0000 KenzoFKC 47828@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p>Here are two versions of the same music video I recently shot and cut.  The song is called "Nowhere" by the Seattle band VerleeRose. I've done music videos before, but always just dudes playing in bars. This was the first "concept" style video I've done.  I'm pretty happy with the way they both turned out.</p> <p>The first is basically cuts only, and the second a little fancier editing with a filter applied.</p> <p><a href="http://vimeo.com/4947224" rel="nofollow">http://vimeo.com/4947224</a></p> <p><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=54F90sb05bc" rel="nofollow">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=54F90sb05bc</a></p> <p>Shot with a DVX-100B.
