Final Bolex Project - Dan Derby

[PeyoteCowboy]

beautiful work man. how did your prof and classmates reacted to it?

[AMBat3rdrock]

i really enjoyed that. and the sigur ros track is so hypnotic. thanx. great work.

[DulvluSpa]

I love the retro look. I specifically got a bolex from an antique store for getting this sort of look for a certain feature-length film I'll make -TAGSS- . It's a Zoom Reflex Automatic k1 {1963}. Am I right in presuming I'll get similar results to this? Should I get a different model, and what one do you use?

[SDKfilmproduction]

Great stuff, man. I usually hate student films with a passion, but this generally managed to avoid the pretention and worn-out concepts that make them such headache-givers. Beautifully shot, and NYC, beautiful city of course. ;)

yall tripping balls

[klonijn]

Nice work! Kodak or Fujifilm?

[miguelangelhavasu]

@klonijn It says Bolex bro.

[klonijn]

@miguelangelhavasu I'm inquiring about the film stock used. Of course it's shot on a Bolex camera. You must have misunderstood my comment.

[klonijn]

@miguelangelhavasu Bro.

I take it they didn't let you use a filter for the fluorescent lights. I think the blue actually kind of works for that shot anyway ;)

[RobertKohlerFilms]

Check out my film, In George's Cave on my channel page. I also used a bolex :-D

This is my faveroute short film ever man. Love it, so nicely shot and directed. the D.O.P should be proud, I bet hes got a comfy job in the industry now with skills like that.

[cruzzycruzz]

[hfunction]

[juneteenthworks]

Great job, the bolex is such a handy camera. what film stock did you use? Check out my short "The Longing" shot on 7231 with the bolex.

[truththeseek]

Really nice film...i loved the unconventional framing...and vanilla sky soundtrack can never go wrong. Nicely done.

[lamanchia]

what model bolex did you use to make this?

[br3ttxxx]

If you watched the credits...

Sigur Ros - Svefn-g-englar

[cbales]

Very nice. Loved the match cuts.

[dlang]

[PeyoteCowboy]

[kyletramirez]

is it that hard to acheive a high constrast ratio?

[gyedc]

Very good job, love the colour range in the scenes & nicely finished - well done! Please look at my Bolex short film effort called: On the Loose

which we shot in London, UK 2004

[thebassauthority]

good job

[boamuro]

I really liked that transition where you went from the fridge to the door, and the part where he's about to get pushed off by cuts to his bed. Smoothly done. I really liked the music in it too. It really created that "deep feeling". I didn't really get it, though. Is it one of those 'think optimistic, move on, there's more to life' message at the end? haha

[PunkNJunk]

i dont get it....

[ForecastmazyFilms]

Yes! Goddamnit 800x better than my Freshmen project. And why, who's that attractive young chap who lives in the closet? hahaha. awesome.
