[David Mullen ASC]

That's great! I see that you shot on the F900 - I wonder if this was the first HD-shot feature to win those awards. Did you screen digitally?

[Kevin Zanit]

Amazing, congratulations!

[Paul Bruening]

Congratulations.

[Trevor Greenfield]

Thanks guys.

 

Someone at the festival also mentioned they thought it might be the first HD feature to win. Would be interesting if it was. If it's true I'm sure Sony will be giddy. The directors and I did an on camera testimonial up there for Sony and they were excited BEFORE we won.

 

We decided not to screen digitally. We thought that HD shown digitally looked a LITTLE too artificial and really liked the aesthetic and organic feeling film brought. Furthermore, not having a 35 print would limit our festival screenings as most do not project HD...at best it's usually digibeta. As a matter of fact, the film is off to Berlinale in a couple weeks and they indicated they wouldn't take HD for projection. I'm very happy with the print and spent much time at EFilm and Deluxe getting it just right.

This is really very cool.

 

And Sundance is becoming bigger and bigger ...

 

Congrats !!!

[Brad Grimmett]

Congrats! Did the film also get distribution during the festival?

[Mike Williamson]

Congratulations, Eric, it's a fantastic achievement! Hopefully these awards will help you take the film to a bigger audience.

[Guest User]

Congratulations Eric.

 

Could you tell me the name of the film, there are so many winners mentioned on the press release, I am not sure which one is the one you shot.

[Mark Allen]

Quinceañera (2005)

 

A double winner.... nice! Congratualtions.

Great news.

 

Are you off to Germany next?

[Eric Steelberg ASC]

Great news.

 

Are you off to Germany next?

 

I would love to go to Berlinale but it was too short notice for me and I'm going to be working. I hear it's a great festival.

[Daniel Madsen]

Great job...but...DO NOT SLOW DOWN

 

 

 

 

Obnoxious advice coming from one of the PAs on the GM commercial you shot in Pasadena.
