Title: Around the Block (canon 5D mark III RAW) 48 hour film project winner Utrecht
Post by: scarluuk on December 26, 2013, 11:50:51 PM
Hi Guys,

Me and my team entered the 48 hour film project in Utrecht last September and made this short movie.
We won prizes for best actor, best movie by audience and best movie by jury!
This short will also be shown at the filmpalooza festival in New Orleans coming March!

For those who are not familiar with the 48 hour film project, it's a project held worldwide where filmmakers get the opportunity to make a short movie within a very short time (48 hour) and compete with other film makers.
The idea is that you make the complete movie within this timeframe, not use a pre written script or anything.
To make sure that you have not pre written anything or filmed they give you a few rules/elements for in the movie.
The film length needs to be within 4 to 7 minutes.
Each year all the teams are given elements for in their movie, the elements of Utrecht were:
Character name: Johannes/Johanna Achterdijk
Profession: Mailman/woman
Sentence: One for now and one for the road
Prop: Cheese
With these elements you must make a movie, these elements are te same for all the teams within that weekend, the only difference between teams is the genre.
Our genre was: Comedy.
Friday at 19:00 these elements were given, and you must write, film and edit your film within 48 hour so you can deliver the movie that following sunday before 19:00.

A bit about the workflow:
We shot in RAW with 1920x818 (we only had one 128gb 1000x CF card from computer bay, the other one broke down when we wanted to start....)
We made proxy's with davinci resolve, edit with Final cut pro 7 while our colorist just color graded the raw files (without XML, there was no time to wait for an XML file)
Grading was done with the OSIRIS LUT for basic grading and then added a lot of purple for the interior and orange for outside.
Lens kit consisted of:
14mm Samyang T3.1
28mm Zeiss distagon F2.0
35mm Zeiss distagon F2.0
50mm Zeiss planar F1.4
85mm Zeiss planar F1.4
Canon 100m F2.8L Macro

We had a dolly/jib with rails of 3 meters, grip was a Gini Rig with follow focus, a Zacuto EVF Pro and a cheap preview monitor with 15 meters HDMI (worked flawlessly with this range)
Lighting was completely done with a 2x1m reflector/flag screen to block or bounce light and for the hallway and nightshots we used 2 800w redheads with one equipped with a Chimera soft box.

Hope you guys enjoy the movie, if you have any questions, feel free to ask :)

Was idd een leuke film, ik deed zelf mee met Heynde & Verre met Magazijn en we zaten in het zelfde blok.

Als jullie volgende keer een tweede camera (7D) en steadicam nodig hebben hoor ik het wel ;)

Wat leuk om te zien dat er iemand uit onze poule hier ook actief is!
Jullie hadden ook een toffe film, was toch een van de eerste die getoond werd?
Maar ik hou je in gedachten voor een B-roll, film je ook in RAW?
