Spyfest entry: parallel

..i just had to let the film "breath". sure it could've been cut down to 6 min as originally planned, but i think what it really asked for when i started editing was the near 15 minute version that im working on now. .. oh well. :)

Just put in the full version anyways as a non compete or cut if off at 6 minutes and submit that for now and show the rest for later. We had to cut a key part also but the story still stands and Dale plans to show the full version after voting too.
 
Neil, sorry to see that you're out, but looking forward to seeing the full version when you get it completed! I'm still in awe of MUCH of the visuals you had going on with your DramaFest entry ... man that was awesome!
 
Aw, Neil, sorry to hear that. Was looking forward to your short. Well, you can
join me at the seat, we're filming but we're out, seats.
 
Sorry to hear it. I definitely will look out for the 15 minute version on your website. This one looked really intriguing.

yeah, i figure the film only gets one chance at a first impression in peoples minds, so id rather have them get the whole picture the first time around then sort of get it, and then tune out the full version because they feel theyve already tasted everything that the film has to offer. ITs not as if this piece is a masterpice by any means, but after starting the edit i just really felt that i needed to let my vision live its own life free of constraint this time i guess. which is unfortunate since i really wanted to participate, but i do think that its for the better as far as my development in the art goes, so i had to make a sobering judgment call this time around. hopefully the film will be enjoyable enough for the audience in its released version that i can say it was worth it :)
 
And that's why we held off with BERLIN. Better to do it right the first time than go into something (or try to hurry & finish it) knowing it wasn't what it could be.

Good call, Neil. Takes a lot, and brings a lot of mixed emotions with it, I'm sure.
 
These disicions are always tough. I have a tendency to soldier on when I sometimes shouldn't so I have respect for people that aren't afraid to say when.

Looking forward to it down the road.
 
..should be done by the end of the week. ive been taking my time nibbling at it here and there when ive got time to get it done. ..its an interesting little piece now that i can watch it coming all together. sort of grounded ..yet surreal feeling to it. im working with angles on some of the basic core ideas in it to hopefully develop a larger and more produced project. anyway, if anyone still reads this section, it should be available for viewing online by the end of the week i think.
 
..i guess its worth posting the link then :) .. by the way , i thought that you guys had two of the most impressive films in spyfest. i enjoyed them both very much. gret jobon those if i didnt say so already.
 
thanks neil, i'll be posting the full version of Ecclesiastes(11 minutes) after the local premiere I'm having for it on July 22.
 
no prob, I might post it in the DVX Clips section since nobody seems to give this section notice anymore
