King is a Fink

Watching "Short Film of the Week: "Taking Photos"" at Vodpod

Get your boots on, bunny!

This is the trailer for a 30 minute film that I am hoping will be finished by the end of April.

Snow Bunny is an exploration of the loneliness people feel in the midst of what is supposed to be a nurturing environment, and how that loneliness expresses itself in often inappropriate and unexpected ways.

The music in this trailer is by onYou, a local Chicago band. The song is called "Children in Misery."

I stumbled across this gem the other day on Vimeo. Here is Leonardo Dalessandri's delightful silent short Borderline.

This pixilation (stop-motion animation using real people) was made in 2006 for Screen South as part of the UK Film Council's Digital Shorts scheme. As much as possible, it was made 'in camera' without digital superimposure, using thousands of printed materials.

In answer to some of the questions below and others I've been frequently asked:

The whole film took about a year: roughly three months each for development, prep, shoot and post - although due to the nature of the film, part of the post bled into the shoot.

The programs I used were Photoshop, Premiere 6.5 and some bespoke programs I coded myself (a 3D animatic planning program and another to smooth out some of the tracking shots). To be honest my machine and the software weren't up to what I needed from them, and I would have a much better time of it now, with my macbookpro, FCP and a tablet...

I used a Canon Eos 350D Digital SLR to shoot, and took roughly 26,000 photos overall.
