New York City DVXUSER Crew Presents: Katrina

Okay, I got re-uploaded and caught a couple hours, and just moved the car for street cleaning.

but all that time up was worth it, because as soon ass screening begins, we will be announcing yet ANOTHER special treat for the viewers. And a different one than Timur was referring to yesterday.

Stay tuned.

There is still one line off - just like two words, but I think I ****ed Joe up with a change to the cut that I'd forgotten about. But it's going into this contest that way. That's how you know we're keeping it real.

Sweet! I am curious!

I wonder if I can re-upload; My file size was 26mb either that or 60mb... I couldn't nail an in between.

Anyways... how long did it take you to park? I know by experience is a pain in the #$$ and can take a loooonnnnG time to find a spot in NYC. At least in Manhattan.
 
yeah, we decided not to worry about prizes and make a film that could not only go here but to other fests as well.
 
Was it too much work to have two different cuts or do you just not like to work that way? (I know that I hate reproducing my work, though we will have 2 cuts of TTN.) And the prizes are worth a 6 minute cut! Not an HVX up on the block, but nice none the less!
 
there is no way in hell we could've had a 6 min cut. the movie is 13 min now and the script is cut to the bone. Cutting it to 6 min would have made it incomprehensible.

but when you see it, basically, this is the first 13 min of a Katrina feature. So that's what my real goal is, get some funding with this. Hopefully it will be interesting enough that people will want to see more.

We just have some different priorities. And not to put down the DVX Fests, but they are for peer review. I mean, I'm not going to go to Focus and brag about winning this fest. They would be like: Whaaaaaaa? So i think Jarred made the right decision to pull the prizes back to reality. The prize now is a nice perk, I think, but not something most of us would make a movie to get.

Anyway, I will just be thrilled to show everyone the film and see what people think, and especially on this site to show people what Timur got out of this camera. He really pushed it I think, and between him and Aram, I think the images we got are quite surprising for this camera.

Anyway, can't wait to start watching.

Yep, we learned that one the hard way with SPARROW ... trying to take a six minute cut out of a 23 minute film was just rediculous ... however, in hindsight, we could have cut the middle/main scene from the film, which really had a self contained story of its own, but didn't think about that until it was too late.

I must say, Mark & Timur ... I'm REALLY glad you guys are NC!! :evil: Your images just look too amazing to compete against.
