Some screenshots and Critique





I just found some screen shots and I wanted to put them up. These are from some movies that I think really exemplify cinematography and good use of blocking. especially the middle two.

movies
1) A Fistfull of Dollars
2) Ran
3) Ran
4) Yojimbo

I should put this kind of stuff up more often. Oh and I've almost completed the storyboard for "Between Gentlemen"


Uploading videos takes forever so here's a link to some of my concentration pieces.

My Concentration is "Storytelling through the Cinematic Arts" and here are three full fledged videos:

Yee Haw. So my next storyboard is going to be a western. I'm even putting in the time to write a screenplay for it. It should be enjoyable for all of you. Somebody said that I should put dialogue in future work. well I'm giving it a try and the possibility of doing extra panels for that makes me somewhat angry. But so far the intro is dialogue based.

I don't like the fact that my ideas are poorly timed with Hollywood. I've wanted to do a western for the past four or five months and now the Coen Brothers make me feel like a band wagoner.

Also my Films seem to be getting more and more violent. for example:
1. Pulp. people getting punched
2. Fragile... okay nothing happens there
3. Between Gentlemen. people get shot
4. Western movie. People get shot and killed, worse too.

...maybe a comedy next, I might not be funny enough for that.


and do you have any suggestions for a Western movie title?

A man of the break

Being so busy, does make one think.

That there is little time for this...


I still feel like I'm behind and irresposible. Working hard is funny that way
