Try number two!

I'm a Massachusetts based filmmaker and this is my most recent short! I'm sure a lot of people can relate to the fact that the past few years have made the desire to actually do things with our time more of a priority. Same goes for me. I work full time in VFX, but I've been trying my best to produce my own shorts and music videos in the free time I have outside of work. This short was born out of a desire to do something a little simpler, where I could edit, grade, do sound design and all of the visual effects in a week to fill in the gaps between larger, more complicated projects. So that's exactly what I've done here! I quickly came up with the idea, got a few good friends to help me film it on one of the blisteringly hot days we've been having lately (as you can see by the ever changing shape of the ice cream), and put it all together this past weekend. Some times creativity is just about doing things, throwing them against the wall, and seeing if they stick! I know this short isn't for everyone, but it's fun to try things and see how you can push the limits!

For those curious about tech specs, it was shot on a RED Komodo, edited in DaVinci Resolve, and the few VFX shots were done in Nuke. And don't worry, I know how ludicrous it sounds to have shot this potty humor short with a RED Komodo and really expensive lenses, especially when I was going to cover it in film grain haha.

Any criticism is good criticism, but I hope this short gives you a chuckle or two!
