Although I thought there’d be more in terms of a direction, but having thought about it for a few minutes I’ve got a basic idea now so I’m entering. I’ll post my wip thread soon

…I need to finish my entry for the FXWars compo first…

#16

Good luck everybody!

#17

Arrrggghhhh…

I can’t come up with a idea… ok I had one but someone else already did sth with pieces (hmm).

And it would be much easier with just “girl” but cute implies automatically those positive feelings. only thing i know is: i wanna crush it.

time’s running out. im on again.

#18

Sounds like you have an idea, now run with it :thumbsup:

#19

Any updates?

Sorry for the lack of posts but things got cray on my end.

I have moved the dateline for JUNE 4th for those who wish to try to submit an entry.

anyone still alive around here? just wondering what the status is for the shorts?
It’s been crazy at my place, so sorry for the lack of interrest recently. Really wondering what is becomming of this challenge…

Hey everyone! I noticed this entry, and I thought to myself “this is a really good one, I must check it out” but I couldn’t find any link to the artworks that entered the competition, not to mention its outcome. Sorry for being such a noob, I must have missed the links, any help will be greatly appreciated.

#22

Sadly there aren’t many contestants… Although the 2 Minute Filmclub is an awesome concept it doesn’t seem to keep living. Mostly because everybody is busy (like me) and don’t have the time to finish it on time. I really wanted to participate but couldn’t time manage it properly so I had to leave it for what it was…

Edit: So no need for feeling a noob… we are all here to learn, help and participate.

#23

Amen to that…

There has to be a way we can make this concept work…

What if it was renamed The 30 Second Film Club? 2-minutes is a lot harder than it sounds - and contestants can spend more time making a higher quality 30 seconds instead of stretching their efforts out over a potentially overwhelming 2 minutes in only four weeks?

#25

Well I think you might be On to something.

I just invested into a Canon hv20 camera and I have been itching to do film material with it.

MAybe it is cooler, if you go for the 30 second shorts, to do it commercial-style. Just make an fake commercial about something… Sounds fun to me…

#27

30 seconds would be cool—you can do a ton in that amount of time.

#28

A couple of things to make this work:

[ul]
[li]Keep it simple: Do simple topics first to encourage participation[/li][li]Allow users fromm all stripes: from Prousers to a guy with a cellphone camera[/li][li]30 seconds: great idea guys[/li][li]Do now and then educational topics (For example: 3 light setup/ Pretty lady/Outdoors etc)[/li][li]Use YouTube as a Resource[/li][/ul]In other words the CORE things we are Trying to learn/practice two things: cinematography & Editing

#29

Roberto maybe have a simple prop that is required for each project—like a soda can or bottle one time and figurine the next. Seeing how people use an object like that could be a lot of fun.

#30

These sound nifty! I love ambiguous topics like, “Not enough crayons for everyone.”

“Try Dry Frogs” “You Can Use Bamboo As A Ruler” “Rosemary In my Soup”

#31

Great ideas.
But before we start I want to do an asset tracking thread (who has what).
We should ask people to RECORD something over a weekend.

Just to start some momentum in the forum.

We could do Something like…

[ul]
[li]The bridge…[/li][li]or The church[/li][li]or the Malll[/li][/ul]-R

#32

Unfortunately I have no access to a decent camera. But I’d love to do some boards over the weekend.
