It's not easy inventing a new film genre

Loved the first one man, awesome.

'Slightly' was an understatement.

I'll watch more if you got 'em.
 
I liked them, especially the 1st one. I think you captured an experience there.

I know these films aren't really about the tech side, but the interlacing bothered me in the first one. I see you work on apple so I assume you are using FCP. Should be super easy to get rid of.

Yeah I would watch more too.
 
I really dug those. I do the room running with my dog a few times a day. Our cat is a Persian so she's more into shedding than physical exertion.
 
or resident video artist, Timur, should see these

he could probably comment on where they fall in "video art" or if they are indeed "new" and outside of it.

Either way I found them interesting.

... PM'ing ...
 
Thanks for watching et al. I appreciate it.

On another thread here, 'Pictures By My Mama,' is a short with the same name.

I also have 50+ shorts on my website: http://elmerlang.com

Being outside the mainstream and zip with the networking skills, I feel I have to jump around, yell a bit and thump my chest to get a little attention. Hence the thread title.

@ jd stanley

I had my socks on when 'Rekindled' started. 30 seconds later I didn't. And 'Shed' was even more out there.

@ jasonfox

Excellent work, tv and print was what I checked out. You're a pro. I respect someone who can write.

@ All

Thanks again!

Great work elmer. Bloody lips was increadible. i liek the direct engagement of the viewer. The eye contact, the introduction of nostalgic ideas with historical quotations. and then making them visceral with the description and vulgar language. Very cool. :)
heres my Video art. if you wana look. Its nice to see some other artists on here. :)

Thanks for the compliment, Elmer.

Dare I ask if "Bloody Lips" is based on personal experience?
 
pretty cool experience... i appreciate how you didn't have to limit your creativity with textbook methods to create your short. it was a bit of a mind f*** for me in a good way... you've just upped the anti for poets!! thumbs up!!

Thanks for watching! And I don't care if you're the CIA, the KGB, the MI5, the...

@ TimurCivan

A thousand f***s with toilet paper thrown into the eye of the moon. “Get your hands off me,” said a door handle.’-- Enjoyed it, Timur.

@ JasonFox

Yes, you are an adhole! Good stuff.

“Bloody Lips”? Just the way it happened…or at least the way I remember it.

@ GenGerDan

Are We There Yet? -- Good fun! You and Jack Daniel Stanley both use that wide, wide screen. Be nice to know the camera and screen dimensions. Must look good up on a wall.
 
Elmer...your work is so RAW it's refreshing! I actually enjoyed both pieces and is definitely a breath of fresh air from the mundane. I appreciate the choice in music as well. Thanks for the pleasant surprise. I'll be checking out your site for more!
