Nathan? - way too late for Loss Fest

Am I too late?

We are starting principal photography tomorrow. This will be a real challenge to get our film in on time for Loss Fest.

Ok, so it's too late. Things got crazy, the economy tanked and we didn't make the deadline.

We are still making the film. And I'll post it to the "User Films" section once it is completed so y'all can rip it to shreds at that point. (ripping it to shred is a good thing... you know what I'm sayin')

No tagline, just a poster...

Micro-production blog:

3/14 - This production is being shot with a DVX100b in addition to a Redrock M2 plus Pentax prime lenses (primarily my 50mm f1.4).

3/20 - Well... besides shooting the intro sequence a month or two back (still in time for Loss Fest) we started principal photography this past weekend. With the majority of the cast on hand, we jumped right in to shooting the most complex (based on number of cast members involved) scene first. Personally, I am extremely happy with each person's performance and very excited for the next round of shots.

3/23 - Got through the second major shooting day yesterday. It was a tough one but everyone came through and the footage looks great. We were delayed a bit by some noisy remodeling in the apartment next door but aside from that, we're good.

3/25 - Frame grabs posted! Please note that this movie is NOT intended to be displayed in black and white... I just don't have the time to color correct at the moment.

3/30 - Two more grabs posted from yesterday's shoot. The location worked like a charm except the acoustics were a bit funky (I may be nit-picking). Overall, a very nice day of production.

4/4 - Delay due to location issues.

5/12 - Filming to resume this month.

5/17 - After a bumpy start we shot some more footage this weekend. Good results! Posted some quick footage frame grabs (out of sequence but that the way it goes of course).

Do they have DVX-anonymous yet? I too am a DVXABUSER.


We may need a DVX-anon cuz some people (myself include) are even producing their films PAST THE DEADLINE. If you ask me, this sounds just like addiction!

Got some BTS posted... check 'em out. Hope to toss up some frame grabs soon.

:beer:
 
The images themselves are compelling. I look forward to the final product.
Thanks

There is still quite a bit of work before we wrap but it should be worth the effort. :beer:

Nice to see another M2 in action.

The M2 is proving to be indespensible. I scrapped the MicroX flip adapter to get that extra stop of light and glad I did it. I want to fuse the M2 to my DVX permanently!

OMG! The poster had me cracking up! good one! lol....

Thanks Luis. There is truth to our jest... we are currently working on the production and are serious about completing it. :)

I think we should have late entries voting!

Agreed! Even thought we are past the deadline, we will have a film to shop around at other film fests.

Well done. Great to see the grabs and the BTS shots.

Tom plays one on TV.

Well....???? What's the scoop? How goes it? Updates?

Hey ZazaCast, thanks for checking up us! We had a location fall through and since we have no real deadline, we'll resume shooting after Easter weekend. Should be a couple of weeks (only shooting on Sundays) and we should be going into post production.

I'm still watching... and waiting....how's it coming along? I know how these things can go, but I for one would love to see this one finished.

Woah! I just check here somewhat by accident and noticed your post Zaza. The funny thing is that (although it's been on hold for a while) we are going to finish this film. It's looking like we will resume filming in early July (hopefully) and post production directly after that. With any luck, we will have a completed film by August.

I will definitely let you know when it is finished. Thanks again for checking up! :D

Btw, I am looking forward to checking out Miss Laid.
