Antman's Film Contest #30: 2011 Round-up!

[HueyNRolf]

As they're multiple choice, it should be written somewhere in the description on vimeo at least. I'll take the example of Timmy's last video, as I had hard times finding the relation to a specific theme, some may produce something for one and it would be that hard to link to the theme. Just saying.

So an amendment to the rules in post #1, just for clarification, might be a good idea.

Done!

[Timbit]

Yippie!!!!!!!!!!! Now, which one?

[Shaunp007]

I was doing a bit of filming tonight for the contest and had a great scene going (I thought) until I loaded the footage into the computer. Can anyone spot why this footage needs reshot? LOL. May have to view it full screen to see!

Reflector in the corner? If that's it, took me a while to catch it, ha.

I have an idea of which theme I'm going with and hopefully will be shooting early next week.

[Shaunp007]

reflector in the corner?

bingo!

[paperkut12]

bingo!

It's honestly not that big of a goof, unless it's a longer shot then I could see people having an eye for it.

Just like paper said, it's not a big deal. Just zoom in a bit so you can crop it out!!

[drapeama]

Reflector in the corner?

Holly! I had to check the still three times to notice in which corner you were seeing it!

bingo!

I wouldn't bother much about it Shaun!

It's not. Now that everyone knows, they can see it, but as I said, took me three times before I finally see it.

Just like paper said, it's not a big deal. Just zoom in a bit so you can crop it out!!

I'd say, even without cropping, it's not a big deal. Don't even touch the framing, unless it's not perfectly ok with you Shaun, but I wouldn't even bother myself, and I'm usually a perfectionist. It can be easily "hidden" without manipulating the image much: create a mask and darken that area, so it'll slowly fade into a dark spot. No one will notice it. And you won't have to reframe it.
Just saying.

[HueyNRolf]

I'll be damned if I can find it. Is that it on the left side of the frame about half way?

[Almohada]

Is that it on the left side of the frame about half way?

Yup.

[HueyNRolf]

Yup.

I did see that the first time, but I thought it part of the furniture.
I know where Shaun is coming from. Sometimes when I edit I find things wrong that I'm confident will go unnoticed, but because I know it's there. I'll want it fixed.

I'm gonna use it as an excuse to re-light and re-shoot the scene a better way anyway.

[HueyNRolf]

Looks pretty good to me, but I guess you won't rest until you have it the way you want it to look.

Have fun!

This is probably part of why Shaun always comes up with great looking footage!

[drapeama]

That's for sure! But I wouldn't even bother with that "goof" myself! Not that much!

[Timbit]

Ah, I see it now. Like Huey, I thought it was part of the couch/chair.

[Timbit]

How are we all doing?

[Shaunp007]

How are we all doing?

Instead of filming new stuff I am just deciding to finish one of the other films i started for a contest this year. Like the title says Contest 30 Year end Wrap Up. Might as well wrap up a film I started for an hv20 contest and never finished.

[Reelaxed]

How are we all doing?

We still haven't decided on the theme.

[drapeama]

We still haven't decided on the theme.

So have I...I'll probably help both Tim and Charlie on their entries, so I won't judge this one, and I probably won't have time to make something myself...

[Shaunp007]

You working too much Mark?

[paperkut12]

Struggling to get my actors together like always.

[drapeama]

You working too much Mark?

Working, and as I said, will probably help Timmy with his script and charlie to make something. But beside that, I'm working 36hrs/week on day & night shifts, so...

Struggling to get my actors together like always.

Already heard that yeah!
I hope you'll come up with something for this one! I'd really like to.

[Timbit]

He's making me think harder than I have before! Which is very helpful and a great learning curve for me too.
