So, is this an Italian themed movie? Looking forward to seeing it shot with the 'overkill' camera! Lucky... (a la Napoleon Dynamite).

It's not an Italian themed movie, I really liked the word from the Dean Martin classic "That's Amore". Its a great word, and I love the sound of it, it just does something to me, and my original title didn't exactly roll off the tongue. I'll explain the meaning more in depth after the movie has been shown, because I don't want to give plot points away.

I was just kidding about the Italian theme because of your title. I happened to work on an Italian themed movie recently (actually, it was filmed more in an Italian director style). I think the title is great!

Regarding 'overkill', it's just awesome that you're shooting with a CineAlta for a DVXUser Forum film fest!

Best Regards.
 
Today went great. We got everything we need. Had a few little problems here and there, like the tours getting routed through our location, so we had someone holding people back while we shot then let them through in between takes. then at the cafeteria location we had a loud vaccuum in hte background .... we had to have them close the door, then it started raining outside as we shot, but ended up stopping pretty quickly so we kept going.


all in all a great shoot today, and i couldn't have done it without everyone's amazing help with it, and i'll be posting some BTS shots as soon as i get them.
 
Shot the last scene on the HVX tonight. (I'll let you figure out which scene it is ;)

Half way through the scene, a lamp from one of my 650W's blew. Luckily I had a replacement, but still a downer. BTS photos should be up tomorrow.

How did you like this dolly? I want one but don't want to spend the dough... though there is a very similar one on the marketplace. Curious how you liked using this.

I have a make-shift dolly (cart) but it bounces and sways. I need one of these that has the deck lower on the wheel axles.

Good luck!

The dolly is ok. It is very sturdy, but difficult to maintain a straight movement. The Dolly can be fitted with Matthews Hot Buttons for use on straight or curve track though, which makes it nice. For this though, we didn't have enough track to cover the entirety of our shot.

New, this dolly, which is a Matthews Doorway Camera Dolly goes for around $3,000.
 
Thanks man. Kyle and I just got done doing a rough cut of the film. I just need to clean up audio and color correct and we're done.
