My DVX trailer

I see a bunch of haters in this thread. What a shame......

This is just about the best piece that I've seen on this site , besides mcgregors's stuff. I'd love to see any of you hating hacks pull a portion of this off.

I ain't hatin' broha. Just think it's not TOO hard to replicate this... the footage matches the feel of the content... good color grading, nuff said :) :Drogar-BigGrin(DBG)

And for the record... Mac's stuff is way way above this... IMHO.

Please do.

Seriously, let's give the guy credit for being talented. Not many people here can pull off what he did. Folks shouldn't feel the need to diminish what he has created. And if you feel the need to do so anyway, you better be prepared to show that you can do better.

I see you aren't reading me right. My point is that it's not hard to do what he did, you just have to be talented and creative enough to do it. I read alot of posts arguing that there's no way he did it by himself, that imo is just bs. It's VERY possible to do it.

And for what record Brandon? I love mac's stuff, you've never heard me state otherwise but I wouldn't say mac's stuff is "way way above" what this dude's trailer is. It looks just as good as the stuff that mac shot on the DVX.
 
I said I'd leave the thread, but it's so controversial.

For the record, my posts were in his defense and the fact that TAKING YOUR FREAKING TIME is what garnered such a great looking trailer. I, personally, am not interested in the content... but there is no denying that the image is pretty freaking good.

Austere, it's not that creating such great imagery from the DVX is hard. By no means is it, it's that TAKING YOUR FREAKING TIME isn't easy. Everyone wants to rush out and "just do it", like the world's going to crumble tomorrow. Everyone wants to wing it on a crappy half-assed script and not take the time to write write and write. Or settle for their bedroom instead of getting out there and hunting for a better location.

Ozan shouldn't be accosted for his great looking work. Like AshG said, he just needs a writer on his material and he's golden.

I, personally, wasn't hating on the trailer even though it did nothing to interest me beyond technical achievements. Because, it really does excel above a HOST of work here on DVXuser.

Proof that time = money, cause doesn't this look like a few hundred grand? TAKE YOUR TIME PEOPLE SHEESH.
 
Well said Kholi. Well said. The trailer does look like a well indie budgeted film. The story has the potential to be a deep meaningful story too but the biggest wow factor for me was that the tthing was shot on a DVX with limited/no crew. I know this is easily achievable with time because I've done it. Granted, mine was a boring drama about some chicks and not an action film but the point is that it's possible and not impossible. lol

Again... great work done here... not poopooing it... just saying it's not as AMAZING to get the results as people have said... I'd agree with Kholi's post!


You can't be serious that this footage looks as good as the Meth trailer?

I never post, but this thread even brought me out. If this work isn't as AMAIZING as I think it is then why don't we see footage better then it in this forum. This is the best dvx trailer I've seen here. Can anyone point me to something better?

For all the people that are posting negative comments, please post a link to something better that you've done.
 
I saw the trailer and I think it's bery doable on a $1000 budget and possibly with a one man crew, but the one man crew thing is the only thing I think maybe a bit exagerated. I guess it is possible if everyshot is done hand held with no boom.

But to answer the question about other great work on here, I've seen work from the Broken guys that look good and also The Ore(but I think that was HVX).

ANyway, not taking anything away from the guy, the trailer looks good, it's very doable if you take your time and know tons and tons of people to get hook ups. But a 1 MAN CREW!....
 
Ok... bottom line. HERE IS THE THING....
Would the look of "Meth" be good for a kid's film? NO. Would the look of a kid's show be good for "Meth"? NO. The key is knowing the look you want, and achieving it. This guy did a GREAT job getting the right look, and he also did a great job with the presentation and editing. Slick work. Again, better or worse looking footage must be judged on the purpose of the content :)
