'THE MESSAGE UNIVERSAL' frame grabs...

Finally figured out how to grab frames in FCP4 and thought it's time I shared with the board instead of just asking questions or posting opinions.

These frames are pre color correction. I'm the writer/producer/director/storyboard artist/editor for this short film (my first). All indoor sequences were lit using a 3 light kit (it was good enough for Kubrick, right?)

Special thanks to Shai as the settings used for the bookstore, daylight and outdoor sequences were based on his posted settings from his "Der Besuch" trailer.

Also special thanks to Jarred for sending me out those DVX batteries in such quick fashion and for the free frame grab hosting! (the batteries rock, I highly recommend) {note: correction made to posting, didn't realize my original attempt was an abuse of the system. Sorry!}

PS: shrink your webpage window to crop out the extra white around the images for an accurate view of the lighting. All that white around it makes my images look darker than they really are.

Hey no problem... you can post 2 or 3 frames on the page, but 10 at a time eats bandwidth (read $$)

Nice job ST32. The darker scenes looked like they def needed an addtional light source but the library and EXT scene was great.

BTW

Your storyboards are epic. Love them.

Hi John,
Thanks for the comments. As a still shot I could see why you would think it needs additional light source, but there's a story point to what you see there. It's 4am in the story and she just woke up from a nightmare. (The light source for the story is revealed in the next sequence to be coming in via a skylight overhead). I'll post another grab or three of a wide shot from that scene another time so as not to abuse the free post system.

PS: when you say my storyboards, are you referring to the compositions in the frame grabs? or the stuff that's on my website? :)

Thanks again!

The comps were great also but I was referring to the site. Love em. I like to storyboard as well!
 
Re: 'THE MESSAGE UNIVERSAL' frame grabs...

By the way, whole flik shot with DVX-100 with anamorphic lens and cropped in camera. I'm going to make the entire 25 minute film available as a free download on my site once it's finished. Just have some pickup shots to complete once the east coast warms up a bit.
