This is a short i made after i found out about the condition sleep paralysis, as i was learning about it i thought it would make a great idea for a short film. This is the first film i have 'completed' using my complete hv30 rig. It was entirley shot on a canon HV30 w/ a letus flip 35mm adaptor in 24p with +6 db of gain, edited in premier pro CS3, colour corrected using magic bullet. I am open to all opinions and critisisms on the short (although some of you i'm sure will state that the picture is too dark as i have heard that from some, well this was the look i was going for and i'm very happy with it - infact i made it darker in post). Audio was recorded using Rode video mic on boom. I'm not sure what else i can say but if you have any questions please ask and i will be happy to anser. The footage has been scaled down to 720p to meet this sites 1280x720p max resolution from its original 1440x1080 24p but still looks quite good ( for internet standards ). Hope to hear some feedback regards Marty.
Heres the info on sleep paralysis :
Sleep paralysis is a condition defined by paralysis of skeletal muscles and or absence of reflexes that occurs upon awakening from sleep or during falling asleep. Sleep paralysis occurs when the brain awakes from a sleeping state, but the body paralysis persists. This leaves the person fully conscious, but unable to move. In addition, the state may be accompanied by terrifying hallucinations and an acute sense of danger .Sleep paralysis is particularly frightening to the individual due to the vividness of such hallucinations. The paralysis can last from several seconds to several minutes after which the individual may experience panic symptoms and the realization that the distorted perceptions were false.
Edit: i will be uploading to vimeo soon, i would have done it the same time as youtube but i used my 1 HD upload already this week and i can't upgrade to vimeo plus as i live in australia and they don't yet have plus for international users.
