Sleeping Awake (Short film by Marco Luca)

Experimental film. It was filmed entirely backwards, the scenes were acted in reverse, then video was reversed to give it a weird effect.

how do u reverse the video like that

what program did u use to edit?

[mluca99]

I used adobe premiere... but i haven't used that program in years, i use Final Cut Pro now. but you can do the reverse thing with almost any video editing program

brilliant film. however, i have a question.

what is the music from 17-20 seconds? it sounds like some kind of instrument reversed and i've heard it before.

thanks

Brilliant! I just posted an experimental reverse video and mine linked to yours. I think yours is inspirational

i know what your talking about... I went through the same frusturation... to reverse on premiere you need to make a negative value on the duration

shooting it backwards really got it into that whole dreamy feeling. i feel sleepy now, but i'm scared i might kill someone while i'm sleeping. lol. you know sony vegas is grrreeeat to use to edit videos like this. it's very user-friendly, too. :) i liked the video alot. <3
