we say we're storytellers, so we should know the basics

I've been reading 101 Things I Learned in Film School on my iphone lately. It's nice to flip through and there's a lot that can help us think about ads in different, yet basic ways. 

And this morning, I ran across this article in Fast Company, which is a perfect accompaniment. 

 

 

 

girl walk // all day

This is a trailer for a feature length film set to the soundtrack of Girl Talk's album All Day. (download the entire free album here). I think the notion of a music video that's not 3 minutes for one song but actually 1 hour+ for the entire album is interesting. Would I watch this whole thing? Probably not. But since iTunes and songs for 99 cents is kind of making the art of the album disappear for this generation of kids, perhaps something like this will be the future. 

Then again, the Beatles movies never really started a "bands as filmmakers" revolution, did they.

 

the art of storytelling

looking forward to it

even the trailer is masterful

 

 

slow is beautiful

I love this. 

 

Between You and Me

If you haven't watched this short 5 min. film, you should. Patryk Rebisz created the whole thing using still frames shot with his Canon D20. Yeah, every frame. It's great, and has earned him awards from the Gotham City Film Festival and the Big Apple Film Festival.
