Hi All,

Looking to buy a Canon 7d Mark 1 or 2 in excellent condition.

I think one of the best dream sequences (or atleast thought to be a dream) was in Rosemary's Baby. I loved the camera moving, it was very errie. Haven't seen it in two years but was better than mot dream sequences. (wild strawberries content was much better though)

I know, you're absolutely right. It's really hard for me to find that ballance. Looking at it now, I only find a few nice shots and didn't give enough thought to the possibilities of the camera. All the more reason to keep searching for new angles.

 

The abundance of words also has to do with the fact that there was a 7 minute time limit, and I really had to compress everything untill I had 9 minutes. But I know what you mean^^, often the images feel too detached to what the character is experiencing. The voice acting makes it appealing enough so you can make your own interpretation with the imagery I believe. But the power of the image is somewhat left unexplored, and that's what's driving me now :)

Yeah, i thought my critique was superfluous only because I know it was the time restriction that made you do it like this. The script is really good, I loved the ending. The voice over is a really tricky thing to get right, some of my favorite narration is in A CLockwork Orange, Taxi Driver, and Goodfellas. I think it's even harder than acting since you don't have the obvious advantage of showing emotion through body language. But it was nice try. keep it up.

that looks really good. How long have you been workng in this field?

Its a good film. You definately have something to say other than just pretty pictures. But (i know its nitpik) but its too wordy could be a good book (notes from underground) but try to put the words into pictures.

To me it doesn't look at all bad compared with a lot of the videos we've seen here. The only issues are a little bit of stick-skip motion due to trying to cram too many bits per second thru the internet soda straw, and the usual aliasing on things like piano strings. This is well above the average for stuff on the internet.

I dont know, might be the poor quality of the video but it doesnt look good to me. The hand in the beginning isnt even lit properly.

Looks worse than most Pan100a pieces ive seen. can some expert cinematographer technically tell me why this looks like crap. (from pakistan)
