k_rehash.mpg : An exercise in timing
This file is a mix using footage I had recorded my senior year in high
school for a project, but couldn't complete because the deck-to-deck editing
was so poor, it was difficult to get the timing right. In this clip,
the lead character is forced to fight himself in this TV-style teaser.
And since the actor has no real twin brother, editing was key in making
the "swordfights" contained herein appear smooth. Note the music
transition halfway through.
re_hamas.mpg : An exercise in composition
Forget for the moment that the "Middle East" looks like a foggy, spooky
forest. Again, it's a twin vs. twin (same guy 3 years later) in a
film-style trailer.
Both of the above were composed using ULead Video Editor on PC.
The following clips are from the student film we discussed. I sent some clips from it in an attempt to secure an internship with the Emmy's in Los Angeles. I don't recall if these were included (my tape was non-returnable...) The original film was edited on a rather clumsy A-B analog.
There are only 4 cuts in this 22 second segment, but it was all one
camera, and there were no L-cuts used.
Again, all one camera. Quick cuts, and two L-cut inserts. The shot of the man with the sunglasses was actually recorded almost two weeks prior to the car stunt. Unfortunately, the camera we'd used was for **** so that shot looks very blue...
