Yours and Mark H's look really good. Never missed a Mark Harris clip yet.

I must admit I've probably missed a lot of your past work Beat, not sure, I always watch all fest entries, but looking forward to this one in particular, knowing now a little of your background.

Anyways, rock on.

Ha ha, thanks man. You are making me feel a lot better about not having huge sets and fighter pilots and stuff. :)

I haven't done my own since Herofest and have wound up shooting other peoples the last year and a half. All my old stuff is up on www.puffinfilms.com and some of the new stuff up at http://www.vimeo.com/puffinfilms/videos. Some of it I just shot though and others directed and I have some stuff I haven't put together yet to put up there.
It feels good to finally be doing my own thing again even though I'm stressed out. Its making it much easier though having a great team around me. I really wish Leslie wasn't so busy because she was needed to make things run smoother.

I hope people like this story. Probably not anything that anyone is expecting though which is a good thing.
 
So our one more day of shooting is confirmed thankfully and a full day at that this time. Whew, Mike is going to be happy with that.
 
Wow this thread has moved along alot since I last checked.

Yes, I was a bit upset with the rush work on the 2nd day. Was pretty much forced to shoot like it was event videography as opposed to narrative film making. I'm used to moving quickly, no bullsh@t but thursday was insane. Good news is that for as fast as we were flying we got some pretty decent shots. Aram and I were talking today and agreed that the only thing we are lacking is some "flavor." Last day we'll be able to take our time redoing some of the more ambitious shots as well as some pickup.

That flouro was awesome for the car interior. Shooting at 1/24 with brevis flip CF1Le I was able to get great exposure. I even had to move the flouro further under the dash because their faces were a little hot. We were happy as it created a nice ambient feel. Those guys were too funny.

Reading everyones recap I didnt realize how many things happened those two nights. It was a crazy, good time. One story I'll tell that hasnt been told yet was the fact that the only time a cop came by on thursday was exactly the moment when we pulled out the blank gun and Steve had the gun aimed showing the Barry the proper way to hold it and what not. The cop drove past stopped, put the car in reverse, started to back up, stopped, then drove away. Strange protocol.

All in all a fun night. I'd like to share some storyboard frames I drew sometime. Hopefully the AD didnt take our only copy with her.

Going to meet with Aram tomorrow to review the footy. Excited.
 
lookin good guys, the BTS stuff is a lot of fun to browse through. Goes great alongside the grabs. Can't wait to see the actual footage. :)
 
How'd you like the using that dolly? I've been looking at that one and love your opinion on it.

The dolly is great. I love that you can sit on it with comfort and that it has articulating wheel trucks. For this joint we are using metal track but when its PVC time and the pipes are not straight, its going to come in handy. It breaks down pretty fast too. We may put a jib on it Thursday but that depends on if we think we can get the time and the transportation for it.

We'll be doing a review on it shortly after production wraps. So far I have nothing but good things to say. A couple of things that I can nitpick but nothing that isnt easily rectified on the manufacturer level. I think you'll like what you'll see/hear.

Looking forward to tomorrow's shoot. Aram, stop telling people that I was pissed last thursday!!! People are going to think I'm emo. :violin:
