Shooting with a timeline I was recently asked to shoot an impromptu short narrative piece. For the project, I was given a few notes in regards to the feel and style of the piece but no time for pre-production and no script to go off of. This project was shot over 2 hrs. I have included the notes below. I think grabbing a two shot (wide) and running it as a whole piece to start would be great. I see
**Note: I am not an expert — these are just my opinions on collaboration. I will also be focusing on how it relates to film making and will provide some real world examples. Comments are encouraged ** Collaboration is the Key to Success By Preston Kanak Collaboration is the key to success in virtually every situation. It not only allows you to focus on a specific element of the creative process, but it also brings a fresh set of eyes
About the Film The last day of #MastersInMotion was a blast! It started with Philip giving a presentation on colour and production workflow. As expected, you rocked it out! The last presentation of the conference was by Adam Forgione, whose advanced audio rundown blew both minds and ears. For me, it was by far the best presentation out of all of them — if it’s even possible to separate any of them from the lot! Following this, everyone got some
About the Film I was recently down in Plymouth, Indiana helping Philip Bloom film the Kessler Crane Documentary. After having returned from shooting the doc, Eric sent me a Cineslider and Oracle system to play with. To test out the gear, I wanted to put together a collaboration piece that would encompass the eyes of filmmakers based in Saskatchewan, Canada. I’ve found, especially with my film a day project, that collaboration is key in any project, no matter the scale.

About the Project One of the biggest reasons that I was able to complete the first year was through collaboration. If it wasn’t for the support I got during the project, I would have never completed it! Over the next week, I will be featuring some of these individuals that contributed to 3MS+ and include the projects that they helped create.

>>Current Project
I am currently producing a posting a 3 Minute Short film everyday. I am doing this in hopes of becoming a better filmmaker. My project is based off of the 10,000 hr rule which states that, "the key to success in any field is, to a large extent, a matter of practicing a specific task for a total of around 10,000 hours". At the end of the first year, I will have logged approximately 5,000 hours.
