Actually, I don't know if some are louder than others, but the ones we were by were barely making a sound, other than a little wind "swooshing". And it was really windy.

lol, sorry! It was an obscure reference to the socio-politcal satire "Don Quixote" (the source of the word quixotic if anyone knows the word - kind of obscure as well) in which a peasant imagins that he is a Knight a attacks "giants" (aka wind mills). Hilarious book really - especially if taken in context to the time it was written. Check it out some time!

Just letterboxed. And are you asking for scene file settings or something else?

not file scene file...it just appeared to be 2.35:1 letterboxed inside 16:9, no?

EDIT: my bad...and i don't even smoke crack...the 720x480 viewed as 720x480, not 640x480 made me think 16:9 plus letterbox. I had a late night...sorry for the confusion on my part. and to think i've looked at hundreds of these grabs and this was the first time that stood out.

:-[ (embarrassed)

Interesting work. *What kind of camera do you have? *LOL. *Just kidding.

What sorts of films do you like? *What is your inspiration? *Do you have any clips or just grabs?

I love your grabs. You paint with a master stroke. I am very impressed.

This reminds me of something but I just can't put my finger on it...

No clips, sorry.

My main influence would be the films of Andrei Tarkovsky.

Thanks for the comments.

Never would have thought that Dodge City, Kansas could look like Holland, but that's cool I guess.

Holland? Hm. That's an odd choice.

Anyways, Tarkovsky huh? That's interesting I guess. I felt a Malick influence here but that's just me.

Have you made any previous films?
