Looks damn nice! Very moody and dramatic indeed. Good luck with the launch and award nominations to come

I agree. Can you tell us a bit more about it - is it a short film? Did you write and direct it? What is the story behind it? Are you a professional film maker?

Can't wait to see the end product, that is if ti comes to Australia... (will it ) Looks very interesting from the stills, I like the styles.. do you have a blurb on what the movie is about, etc ? Or can't you release that till the film is ready for release ?

It is a short and it will be about 13 minutes. I direct it and co-write it. I can't tell much about the story right now, but be sure that i will let you know immediately once i can. I'm not a professional film-maker. It is my first """big""" project. Alpha_7 wrote:Can't wait to see the end product, that is if ti comes to Australia...

Unfortunately i can't tell many things right now, but i will very soon  Can you suggest me a good short film festival in Australia? I find it great idea. Ghetto Panda wrote:I'm very much liking the third photo and the first backstage photo great use of lighting but they all look great.

i can see the strong narrative through each image
and very thoughtful framing and clever art direction to further enhance the impact of the story line
however some shots look post processed is the film a mixture of styles or are you just experimenting the tone in number 1 in particular is disjointed from the others, is that intentional?
your cinematography is excellent
congratulations on the prestigious work

Thank you wendellt for your kind words.
Most of the shots are post processed by me but it isn't the final result. The pp i have done is something like a demo of what i want, so the post production company will understand what i expect from them. But it is not 100% the final result that i want. I am still working in this section.
As for the styles, there are 4 different stories in this film that have something in common, something that travel from story to story, so i decide to show this difference in some way.
Many thanks guys, i'll keep you updated!

I just want to add that your use of lighting is exquisite  Very much like F.F. Coppola.

There are a fair number of film festivals here in Australia. The one I can think of is the Melbourne International Film Festival. Not sure how you enter it but have a look online
