Any filmers out there?

Talbot

Recently I've been trying to get out and film stuff more and I was wondering if anyone on here also films. I personally do a lot of biking so I try to film but with my own style.

Here's a teaser for a project I'm currently filming.

^wow that window is tiny...

I've also been looking for the polycount of filming forums so if anyone knows... let me know.

Cool location! Where is that exactly? //Edit: nvm, I just saw that is was Santa Monica in the vid discription.

And nice choice with the Wax Tailor :thumbup:

If you zoom in you can see all the jumps. That is shot at the bottom. Its pretty long. Nice hiking for people who don't mountain bike. On a clear day you can see a lot more.

It's an amazing place. I little bit of a pain to get a crane up there but it was worth it.

Kinda wish I stuck to bmx'ing...

how much it cost to rent the crane? unless it's yours...

Cool! I film every now and then, but I'm a total amateur. Here's my P&P thread: http://www.polycount.com/forum/showthread.php?t=95802

Yeah I don't actually BMX. I mountain bike. Those jumps were technically made for a 26" bike.

The crane is checked out from my school. Usually they don't let it off campus but the video lab people trust me.

I do news camera for a press website, but in my own time I'm part of a group of independent film-makers funding our own shorts:

I don't think this is really the kind of stuff you're hoping to get by reply - but it might interest some. We recently did a fun re-creation of the seduction scene from 'The Graduate' to see how close we could get to the original. Here's a promo trailer featuring various projects.

That's actually what I was hoping someone would post. That is awesome! I want to do more projects that are short films but I don't know enough people yet.

You've got the talent and the kit - the rest will come. Just go out and shoot whenever you can.
