Ramjet Films presents "Re-Birth"

Wow...I am inspired.... opens up a whole new avenue for BTS for me! I mean the "wife" comment about you being a retard. hahaha!!!! I take a lot of joking and comments from my family (i.e. daughter) for being sort of a deaf-mute when I am working.... hahaha!!
I dont know why, but when I am working, THAT is when she wants to come in and have lengthy discussions. I hear her, I know she's talking to me, but whatever part of my brain that is resposible for making me turn around and offer my participation in the conversation is on hold. So an hour later, I'll say something in response to her and she looks at me blank...and shakes her head. :)
 
I have the same problem T. But, I never get to ignore a long conversation, she always wants to ask me a question every 3 minutes when I am trying to work/play :) I'd prefer the long speel.

Thanks for the comments about the BTS. On that note, I should have some location stills up sometime late afternoon (central time). It's raining here today, so they will be a bit gray:) Good for the overall mood of Drama Fest though.

Thanks,
Jason
 
I just saw your interview and that was hilarious. I loved how you made the "actor" a little shorter, nice touch. Great piece of promotion too. Maybe next time you could do a side by side split screen.

I look forward to the location photos. I actually would love to have my shoots overcast (better diffused light and feel/mood), but (I never thought I'd be saying this) but San Diego is too damn sunny.:undecided
 
Thanks Jeremy. I'm glad you noticed about the height. It was more posturing thing, though, to be honest :) Split screen is interesting. If I really want to spend some time on it, maybe I could do them on the set togethor! But, maybe I should be working on my film instead :)

PLEASE do another interview!!!!!!! God, I loved both characters. What a hoot. I would love to see you set up the camera and shoot both sides of a conversation (then composite them together. If you do a lockdown it wouldn't be hard and would be pretty amazing because these look like TWO DIFFERENT PEOPLE!!!)
 
I would like to try that. It would take some learning though. I understand the basic concept, but haven't begun to explore how I would composite the two together in my NLE (EDIUS), which I am new to, and didn't have much editing experience to begin with :)

Sounds like a BTS interview part II. Coming... sometime later. :) When I have something to report. Thanks for the suggestion. I may just have to try it soon. But only after I at least get a closer to finished draft on the script :) This filmmaking stuff is hard

All you do is drop the videos on top of each other and draw a mask or even do a wipe that you freeze halfway. The point is that the center of the frame is the same in both videos so they sit on top of eachother perfectly once you reveal the other one by masking or wiping half of the frame. Then its a simple matter of sliding the clips so that questions and answers seem natural (it would require good acting to appear to be responding to each other but you clearly got that talent down ....)

I do know this isn't your objective but I can't help but say how cool it would be to see both of these characters on screen talking to eachother!!!!!!
 
Thanks for the info. It will be fun for the practice at the very least. I will do some tests tonight maybe.

But in the meantime, the wife is getting mad waiting on me. Off to go eat, and take a few location shots. They should be up this evening sometime.

Thanks Mark, for the info.

Thanks, and sure, I'd love to. If you can buy me a ticket and give me a pillow to sleep on :)

Yes that would be great. I also want to complement the acting. I can't wait to see what you bring to the movie.
 
UPDATE:
Test location stills added to the bottom of the first post. I have reached my limit of nine images that I can post in my title post, so I am not sure what I will do from here on out.

Jason
 
You'll have to post pics in new messages as you go and leave the first post for the main news/pics and maybe a link of where to go to see the new pics.

Great looking locations by the way. That church looks great and that long street too.
 
Hey, thanks for both of the comments Jeremy.

Yeah. I will probably do something like what you were just saying for all my BTS stuff. That seems to be the only way to go.

Yeah, I like that street. I don't know how many of those locations I will end up using, but the street is definitely one, I think. I have a few others, but I might post them later, or just narrow it down to the final ones when I get there.

Thanks a bunch,
Jason
 
Well, maybe I'll win the lottery or something between now and Jan. and I can take a vacation with the wifey :) yeah.... Don't hold your breath.

Jason
 
Quick semi-update. I should have a better quality (but hopefuly not too much bigger) h.264 version of the BTS Interview up tonight, as well as a wmv version, so you can have your choice, if by chance you don't have one or the other.

Thanks,
Jason
