Busy Weekend ... Busy Week

If you follow this blog you really should be following The Devil's Company Blog. I've been posting there more often than here because of filming and junk.

After filming this weekend I helped another one of my friends with her short, which includes one of my actresses (Resa Barton).

The pictures following are from the third day of shooting, which was long but quite fun. I nearly killed myself, falling asleep on the freeway ride back. I should have just crashed when they offered :(

I loves my DVX100B. I loves it so much.

Peace!

Behind the Scenes - A Day on the Set

YouTube + And He Gets The Girl + My Video = Almost off YouTube!?

I think it's inevitable. My "And He Gets The Girl" music video might be taken off of YouTube soon. Almost all the other videos have been taken off except for two and the newer ones. Now I'm on the top of the list with the most views. Eek! But I think I know why mine is still on YouTube. When the copyright owners look for things with their music they only listen for the first ten or twenty seconds. I don't think the music comes in until thirty seconds in (UPDATE: it starts at 0:44). I have my opening title and the opening sequence.



Peace :(

Let's pray it won't get taken down :(

The Treatment Is Done!

Ah, the old cast list and picture!

Today I completed the treatment! This is going to my first real short film. Uncover'd was a project, a short (difference from a short film), this one is something I will submit to film fest and try to win with, this is my baby.


Peace!

Best Music Video @ The 3rd Annual Santa Monica Teen Film Festival!

Yes! Finally some recognition! I won "Best Music Video" at the 3rd Annual Santa Monica Teen Film Festival. Whoopi and I should have snagged at least one award last year for Whoopi vs. SilentBat but hey, what are you going to do? The audience choice awards was super biased and the judges just didn't think it deserved anything. Anywho, I competed, at first, with seventy other films which got weeded down to twenty films, nine of them, including mine, being music video. And of the other eight music videos I won first place for Antoine Bandele's And He Gets The Girl. I almost thought I lost it to another video called Remeberance though because last year, I believe, some of the videos won just because they had a sap story and this one was a sad story and was really good on top of that. Everytime a music video came up I would think to myself "I hope this one is bad and if it is good I hope I could be proud to lose to it." I felt that way with Remeberance. I would legitamely say I would have been proud to lose to it if I did ... but good thing I didn't! Yay!

So what did I get? Well as you can see above and below I got a trophy and with it I got four movie tickets to a Landmark Theater (I already know where I'm going to use the tickets for and for whom. I owe someone and I think I'll take her friends too) :). Along with the trophy and tickets I got a Best Buy gift certificate worth $200. So pretty much, that means I'm getting a new external harddrive that's firewire-ready. I was thinking about the one you see to your right. It's the Iomega - Minimax 500 GB. But that's just from a first look, I may by a drive from a name brand I'm more familiar with!

Well anyway that's it! Tomorrow is my CSI Editing visit :-D!


Peace!

Antoine Bandele's And He Gets The Girl Coming Soon

Everything is shot and captured and I've got a full rough cut of it! Now all I need to do is go back and tweak it, color grade it and put in the few special effects in it. All and all I'm proud of what I got but there are parts in the video where I'm like, "Argh! Why did I do that!"
