aicp southwest 2011 sponsor reel
Bookmarked 743 weeks ago our creative minds here at element x creative http:wwwelementxcreativecom were pretty stoked about the association of independent commercial producers aicp asking us to create this year039s sponsor reel for the southwest show the creative carte blanche was daunting given such a small window of time to concept and produce a 5 minute piece it was even more challenging considering our own expectations were set high not only in terms of storytelling but wanting to create something that had not been done in the history of the showafter hours and hours of brainstorming concepts we found an idea involving trains and miniatures that the whole studio could rally behind every individual under our roof came together to write storyboard model texture shoot rig animate composite and edit the final product many late nights and take-out orders later combined with a music and sound effects mix from tequila mockingbird the end video was stunning to beholdso take a peek at our latest and greatest we hope you have as much fun watching it as our hero jack had while running around in the tiny world we created for him |

the bridge
Bookmarked 757 weeks ago the vision:back in october of 2009 i set out to make a film that would push my talents as both a storyteller and a filmmaker i wanted to create a film that would challenge myself and my audience meshing both classical and experimental storytelling techniques from music books amp films that have inspired me in one way or another i wanted to make a film that didnt do any spoon-feeding where my audience would leave with questions as well as answers it was a long a difficult road to get to this point and there were days where i felt that i was in way over my head but eight months later i can proudly say ive finally completed my film the bridge and it was an experience i would never forgetthe inspiration:the story of the bridge was a story a cousin had told me when i was eight years old it was a ghost story about two siblings on a bridge i remember it haunting me for weeks and causing many sleepless nights under my sheets obviously it had a lasting influence in my life it had always been one of those stories that i wanted to adapt into a short film so when the opportunity finally came one day i decided to pull to trigger when i was in film school i would constantly fantasize about making some sort of epic period piece especially one that took place during ww2 so when i decided i was going to make the bridge i instantly followed it up with hell why not make it into a ww2 movie i could have easily made this film as a contemporary piece but where would the fun be in that i never do things because its easy i do it because its hard i love a challenge i figured i could keep the same characters themes motifs style and wrap it around a ww2 setting so i did pre-production:so it began after a quick outline i started writing the screenplay and being a one-man crew at the time i also started doing work on costumes and props i lived and breathed ww2 247 i watched every ww2 movie and documentary i could get my hands on i even got my hands some real ww2 letters to get a grasp on the eras language i felt like a student again and i loved it i scoured ebay for every ww2 field gear i could afford to buy and the stuff i couldnt get i had them custom made cheaply in china i wanted it to be detailed and authentic as possible while keeping my almost non-existing budget down i remember coming home one day and having almost a couple dozen ebay packages on front door it looked like the front door of the post officecasting:the casting of the bridge was actually one of the smoothest aspects of the entire process i first went to my good friend amy and asked her if she would like to help me produce the film having worked with each other before i didnt really have to ask twice she was happy to be my first recruit for the leading role i asked my good friend pablo soriano to take the part having worked with him before we have a good understanding of each other he is just a naturally gifted actor and he makes my job as a director so much easier plus his puppy dog eyes make him a perfect protagonistfor the leading female role i went looking for a girl who had beautiful almost hypnotic eyes thats when i spotted leah in one my good friends music video i called up carlos and basically told him i need to have that girl for movie a few days later she was on boardi owe the discovery of mike the character who plays james connolly to my producer amy she had read the script and recommended him i remember her telling me mike is james words that any director would love to hear and as usual amy was rightso a couple months later the script was complete the costumes and props were ready and the cast was cast we were ready to shootproduction:with our extremely limited budget i knew right from day one that we were going to shoot the bridge on dslrs specifically the canon 7d and 5d mark ii with this in mind i knew as also the dp of the film i was going to push these cameras to its limits i wasnt going to let my equipment limit my vision of the film i knew at the very beginning that i may or may not have a crappy movie in the end but hell its gonna look damn good we all know about the cameras limitations but i wasnt going to bitch and moan about it i was going to work around it i took it as a personal challenge to make these cameras work and i didabout 75 of the film was shot with the 7d and the rest with the 5dm2 the main reason i shot with the 7d more was the 24p firmware update wasnt available for the 5dm2 during the bulk of the shooting i prefer the 5dm2s full frame sensor the 7d cropped sensorproduction like any other shoot had its ups and downs ours was mainly san franciscos unpredictable weather you can blink and the bay area can go from miserable foggy weather which is what i wanted for the film to perfect summer beach party weatheralso being a guerilla production also has its own set of problems i remember an actor and i almost getting arrested at a national park because a tourist reported seeing some soldier carrying a rifle we got patted down and escorted off the premises before the ranger let us go she handed me a business card for film permits i thought that was hilariouspost-production:there wasnt really a post-production for the bridge i did post simultaneously during production i would shoot on a weekend and then do visual effects or picture and sound editing on the weekdays it was a very indie film workflow the upside was i always had very polished dailies to show my cast and that kept them motivated to give me their besti spent my first two years out of film school as a cg artist being able to do my own 3d animation modeling surfacing lighting and rendering definitely upped the production value of my film cg artists arent cheap and i calculated that if i had paid someone else to do my visual effects it would have been double the entire budget of the filmi hate adr and foleying but if you dont have a budget you have to do it yourself we had two whole scenes where sound was completely unusable the tunnel scenes so we had to redo it from scratch i remember adr sessions inside automobiles and 2 am foley when my neighborhood is quiet and i dont have to deal with traffic and barking dogsi discovered my composer justin browsing through some filmmaking forums he is such a talented musician he added so much emotion to my film being a super control-freak its very difficult for me to hand off any aspect of my film to someone else unless i have 100 percent confidence in that person justin is one of those people in fact justin was the only other person who had a hand in post aside from meit was tough being a one man studio for this film i acted as dp and director on sunday editor on monday sound editor on tuesday visual effects artist on wednesday and thursday and compositor on friday i got some rest on saturday while my two computer farm renders but in the end when it all comes together nothing feels more rewarding than seeing the art youve created i can safely say that i created something im very proud offull circle:so here it is 8 months work compressed into a 30-minute narrative short the film i set out to create back in october of 2009 i would like to thank everyone who was a part of it i couldnt have done it without you to my viewers i hope this film challenges you like it challenged me
