Flashing Lights

Anyhoo, Flashing Lights is my first entry into a dvxuser fest, and I'm proud to be part of it. My writer and co-producer, Keith Higgons and I started work on this a month ago. I didn't know if we'd finish in time, but indeed we did.

Co-produced, Directed, shot, edited by Mike Hechanova (me)
Co-produced, written by Keith Higgons
A.C. & Lighting by Yev Pinhas
Starring Bev Reese and Jason A. Drago

Shot in one day, approximately 20 hours the day before superbowl. I really wanted two days to shoot, but for the sake of showing support to our Giants, we really pushed to finish in one... and we did. Wrapped at 5am with cabs for everyone!

Pleased with the results, hope you will enjoy it. It's a fun rom-com (cant believe i said that) intended to be cute (that too) with light-humor. It is very clean so no worries. Sorry to disappoint any One Night in Paris hopefuls.

Here are some screen grabs. YES, i posted a pic that shows the camera but the camera is integrated into the script so there shouldnt be any surprise in how it was going to be used. It gets as much screen time as the actors. The synopsis says it all.

BTS to follow. I'll probably post my storyboards too. Aram liked them, maybe you will too.

***EDIT*** Special thanks to my marketing team: Michael & Ted

good luck. I know a bunch of comics in the city(including the lead in my film, Mark Riccadonna), so Bev prob knows people I know.
 
Thanks, Mark.

You're probably right. I'll ask her the next time I see her. She'll be performing at Gotham later this month. I hope to check it out. She's hilarious. I loved working with her.
 
Hey thanks, Aram. Great BTS pics from your shoot. Didnt you wear that shirt to the dvxuser meeting too? :) j/k BTW, good call on the china ball. Helped on that entry shot we talked about.

Poster?Uh...... working on it? Why you gotta call me out for?!
 
Excellent. Glad you were able to get it finished and uploaded. Don't worry about the promotion. If your film is good, and sounds like it is, that'll be plenty.

LOL. Sorry. Just trying to get you up to speed. :) But you got me with the shirt...
Cool, I can't wait to see what you did with that shot.

Cool! Welcome to the fest!

I love the grabs... especially that last one on the elevator panel. Nice!

Best!
 
I see where it says "here are some grabs" but I see no actual images...

****ing Queens. ****'s always ****ed up there.
 
Hmm... I dont see no grabs either, but I did see them last night on my mac. I exported via quicktime stills. Ted, you on a mac? Could that be it. I'm on a pc right now and I too cant see them.

I was wondering why not one person commented on the grabs I posted. I thought my $#*% was "poo." :( I'll have to wait til I'm back in poo land to figure it out. Sorry. Who knows, maybe even get a poster up so Beat Takeshi gets off my back.

Just tried it with Explorer and I can see the boxes but they have an X in them.

Ted, I bet if you clear your cookies the pictures will no longer be there.
Maybe while you still see them you could copy and paste them for us?
 
Yeah i get the "X" here at work too. That would be great if you could do that if you still see them, Ted.
