Screen Test

A funny thing popped up today about an old short film "Dreams by the Clyde" that we shot about 2 years ago now. We entered it into the 2007 Screen Test Student Film Festival.

The funny thing is, I didn't even know, until today, that it was screened there in Bristol that year. Sadly it didn't win anything, but it was selected to be shown there out of hundreds of films which must've been even worse.

Super kool.

Nikon D5000 test shoot

Innes and I are about to do some revision for resit exams. He's also taking his new D5000 over to do some test shoots. So I'm thinking of writing a short story to quickly shoot and put up on my Freelance Media website.

The main testing points are to see if the audio can be synced easily with 48kHz PCM from my miniDV camera. This would be freaking epic, as we'd have to shoot old school with a clapper board. That'd be great fun. It's also 720p HD - which means some lovely progressive video and at a higer res than my miniDV can put out.

In conclusion - full total win.
