Just a week with my wife and my cameras :-P No business emails (almost), no phone (almost), no kids.
God it’s hard work.Ĭeline is shooting from Nicolas Degrave on Vimeo. But the struggle is part of the beauty of it all - to completely immense yourself in trying to make something of meaning. Man the courage it takes to make a film - to risk all ridicule and put something out there that is completely your idea! Also it kind of felt selfish when I can be doing other things. It was not easy - I would constantly procrastinate because I was scared that when it was done - I would release it and it would be horrible - so this film got me to finish my taxes and clean up my whole apartment. It was my own artistic journey to make this film the slow, long way. I wrote a long script, read it, saw how it worked, changed lines, and rewrote. I originally made a cut of the film quickly and removed it from online because I wasn’t happy with it. This film was incredibly fascinating to make - it was the first longer more serious project I have made since college. My picture profile is contrast all the way down and saturation minus two. Shot mostly in UHD mode at 29.97 fps that I slowed down in post.
This was shot on the Samsung NX1 with Nikon 35mm AIS lens and one shot on the 100mm Leica R lens. Thru art we can all heal, and thru art we can help, and thru help we can help. And I want to personally thank Art Adams whose articles online have inspired me so much and Geoff Boyle with his CML that moves me forward and American CInematographer for issue after issue of inspiring information about cinematography, and Roger Deakins for giving back and sharing - and well - everyone - who gives back and shares. And also Samuel H who brings his camera knowledge online to the global filmmaking community and people like MacGregor and Hunter also online DPs who help push me to become better. I want to thank Andrew Reid and EOSHD for making me aware of this small lightweight 4k camera - the NX1. Very special thanks to Lily Henderson, the Bresnick-Curtis Family, the Henderson family, the David family, and Charlie Chicken. This film is a quiet war cry in favor of quiet over loud to help with creativity and peace of mind.
