While showing my short film Middle of Nowhere to my son recently, I pointed out that the only shot of a clock references another short film. That film was called 12:01pm and was shown way back in 1990 on HBO. My girlfriend knew I was a huge Twilight Zone fan and insisted that I watch it, claiming it was brilliant. She was right, and I never forgot 12:01pm, which was the first film I ever saw abou

Here it is, the finished version of my latest short, The Payoff. Remember, the requirements of this assignment were no sync sound (so no talking heads) and you had to have a beginning, middle, and end. On Tuesday I showed it to my class on a big screen (which was very sweet) and Thursday to both my actors. Everyone seems to approve, but you be the judge. Also note that you can click on the HD link
From the Democratic support group (no, not like therapy) Truth Through Action, here's their first short film. It is very clever, if not predictable. Enjoy!
Shooting commenced on The Payoff last Friday, and concluded on Monday. I shot for two half days, between the hours of lunch and dinner. This forced me to shoot quickly, and saved me some money I'd usually spend to feed everyone. I don't really like to do this, but I'm very broke right now, and had little money to spend. The nice thing was that my actors knew this, and had no problem with it. Of co

Earlier in the week we told you about Pixar’s 2D adventure with their 11 minute hand-drawn animated short titled, “Your Friend The Rat”. Three production stills from the film have now been released, check them out below.
The short follows Remy the rat (voiced by Patton Oswalt), and his brother Emile (Peter Sohn), who talk about the ‘history and behaviour of rats in an effort to persuade human viewers not to kill the ubiquitous rodents.” The short isn’t solely 2D animation. It features a mix of 3D computer animation, 2D line animation, live-action filmed segments and some stop-motion animation (another Pixar first)

Tokyo Confidential is a short documentary-like film on the more quirky aspects of Japanese modern culture. I watched it at the Substation in Dec 2005 during the Panasonic-MDA Digital Film Fiesta 2005. The film itself has been uploaded to YouTube (where else?) by the director/producer/cameraman himself, Anthony Koithra, so there shouldn't be any issues with copyright and IP stuff.Anyway, the film is 13:05 minutes long and for those who are only interested in the highlights of this film, check out this part on Japanese vehicle modding scene from 2 mins to 4mins. The modifications they do to their vans have to be seen to be believed ;)What Batman would probably drive in Japan9:30 mins into the film, you can get a glimpse of really fresh sushi prepared by avery entertaining and skilful sushi chef at Sushizanmai Restaurant in the Tokyo's Tsukijishijo District.

We think some kid has stolen this car. Nah. It's the dad driving his son to school, and he's drunk. The teenage son must take over. So, adults give up all responsibility towards their children and mayhem can take place. The film shows one day in the life of several teenage students as they go in and out of classes.
