VIDEO PODCASTS (AKA SABICASTS)
MotionBox has been going down and their 750mb limit per account is going to be a problem in the near future. So i've decided to go to YouTube. And the reason I've picked YouTube over something like Vimeo will make itself very clear, very soon.

PODCAST ONE - INTRO
PODCAST TWO - DEKLUN (((in Stereo)))
PODCAST THREE - DANIEL J. CARMODY
PODCAST FOUR - MARY ELISE HAYDEN & DUSTY SORG
PODCAST FIVE - GEAR INVENTORY
PODCAST SIX - FIRST CAST & CREW MEETING
PODCAST SEVEN - MAD FOOTY, BRO! in HD!!!
PODCAST EIGHT - THE GAMECHANGER

...and plenty more to come.

Yeah you will kill this I'm sure.

Go go Ninja skills.

Always admired that you can make a really good films without the gimmicks / security blankets I seem to gravitate towards. This should be a great one for you.

Looking forward to it.

so right off the bat, I spent the afternoon with Jamie Cobb, the editor of HEART OF NOW. We were in the Atlanta airport waiting for our flight to LAX when I read about LossFest on my iphone. We immediately began discussing some ideas for the LOSS theme. in the interest of transparency, some of the key points of the discussion were as follows...

---pitches for a framework for a story: something that moves much faster and tighter than IFHY, but that resonates on a similar (very human) level.
---"blue sky" session (meaning no ideas are bad ideas at this point) where we throw out ideas for scenes, dialogue, ways to reveal story and character beats, etc.
---listed the obvious choices for this theme and pitfalls to avoid.
---actors we'd like to work with, Sabi regulars were named and some new faces too.
---potential for an unusually high level of collaboration between myself and other filmmakers.
---potential to incorporate a more interactive experience for the audience (you'll see!!!)
---potential to do what is essentially a short "proof of concept" from the WANDERLUST universe of characters and storylines we are developing.
---a truly NO-BUDGET endeavor to make something real and compelling and beautiful to look at without throwing a bunch of money at the screen.

You got that right Forsman. But you are the "thinking man's filmmaker" around here so you never know. Rumor has it that you've started wearing a monocle and beret to enhance your erudite image.

I'm just glad to see you start a thread here doood. :thumbup:
 
Looking forward to seeing what you come up with this time! Also just looking forward to reading your posts and insights as your progress along. I always end up learning a good bit in your threads Zak, thanks! And good luck!
 
Yipes! Going off of Mark Johnson: that Heart of Now trailer blew me away! Man, oh, man Zak SABI rocks... Can't wait to see the final product. Oh yeah... and this film too. Heh. IFHY was my lovefest fav. I'm sure you'll do just swell this time around. And interesting idea about the transparency.....
