while i think the sift would tear it up, sure why not ? it might be fun to see the response it gets.

but i think any of these would do much better

By the way, would you mind if I posted your short film when I get a free spot in my queue? I'm sure the other sifters would enjoy seeing your work outside of the sift.

Also, have you seen the video Zifnab posted here: http://www.videosift.com/video/A-Scorsese-Directed-Short-Scripted-by-Hitchcock

I thought you may like it.

wow, very cool. a feature is a helluva lot of work.

are you in post now ? if so where at ?

tell me about the film (story and techinical info) and your hopes for it when done.



In reply to this comment by blankfist:
Haha, you are so right. I just shot a feature out here, and I swore never to shoot another one in LA. It's not friendly to indie filmmakers. I decided early on to go guerilla and shoot without permits, so we were constantly ducking cops. We only got kicked out of one area, which was by a Ranger up on a canyon trail overlooking the cityscape. So, we just packed everything up, made the hike down, and a week later we went back to get the rest of the shots.

Way too expensive out here to shoot. Next feature I do, I'm taking it back to North Carolina, which is where I'm from originally.

Hey, thanks for the compliment. we shot the film here in the midwest (along with all the other films on that site).

i've got a few friends in La nd they talk about how expensive it is and all the permits they have to get before shooting and it makes me wonder how any indie projects get done there


In reply to this comment by blankfist:
Hey, that's really well done. I wasn't expecting the spiders at the end. And, I loved the nod to Audition with her wardrobe at the end. Where did you shoot that? Out here in LA, or are you somewhere else? Great job.

I was posting to Farhad when i saw your comment about AUDTION. It was DEFINATELY creepy as hell. so here is a short movie I thought you might dig called THE EVIL INSIDE (forgive me if I already sent this to you). I edited this film and the director was a HUGE audition fan (you'll tell from the short) This is the 10 minute version (down from 30 minutes)

Farhad2000, I know you're a bit of the cinephile, and I've seen the video you posted of Audition in Bravo's 100 Most Scariest Movies. You may find this video I posted recently interesting: http://www.videosift.com/video/Clip-form-one-of-the-creepiest-horror-movies-ever-AUDITION

I'm ready to save this one should it need it.

Interestingly enough, from one visit down to NC last year to my grandparents and getting a taste of Southern food, I occasionally crave it. Not really the fried stuff though.

In reply to this comment by blankfist:
Well, fried okra is pretty spectacular.

In reply to this comment by JAPR:
Hehe, I'm just teasing, don't worry. My grandparents actually are transplants, but I do have a lot of Southern friends, they just like to make jokes about the stereotypes (stereotypes are fun as long as you don't really take them seriously, etc.). My grandparents live near Charlotte, though I can't for the life of me remember the name of the town right now.

In reply to this comment by blankfist:
I was born and raised in North Carolina, so taking from my personal experience I'd have to disagree with you. It's a retarded stereotype, and I'm shocked your friends from the South would say, "...as a general rule, Southerners don't know shit beyond fried food." Unless, of course, they're transplants, which would make perfect sense.

What part of NC does your grandparents live?

Nah, she's just a Southerner.

I bet you've never even been to the south.

I haven't been able to search for the RP yet. I've been ridiculously busy here. I haven't forgotten.

From my readings of Joseph Campbell, the unofficial father of comparative mythology, the entrances to cathedrals (and of most places of worship, not only Judeo-Christian, but also Budhism, Hinduism, etc.) are adorned with the evils of passion and fear. They're the gargoyles that guard the entryway to enlightenment.

Or, then again, it could just be statue of a dude fellating another dude.

What he's comparing to Hitler's regime is the shadow government that is controlling the US government. Not the US itself.
