Two of my friends and I want to make a film but like...not a film? I'm just having fun with videos and editing. That's all I just wanted to say that bc I'm excited :3. Also we don't watch films very often so any fun light hearted short films, videos, ect? My current inspiration is Jump Tomorrow (2001), directed by Joel Hopkins.
I really love film and wanna break into that world one day, but for now I'm just starting with making scrappy stuff with friends. The whole thing sounded so intimidating, like what do you mean I have to give people a script and put a camera in front of their face and ask them to pretend to be someone else??? That takes a lot of vulnerability I think. Turns out it's so much fun and I need to start doing it more. This first silly video is in fact for a competition my university library is holding to make a promotional short for the libraries. Lowkey don't think we achieved the goal but I hope some student worker gets a laugh. Yeah so check it out it's only 60 seconds.
"Post-mumblecore" so funny lol there's something about working on things n getting to watch yr friends or even random ppl help create things from yr mind, or a melding of yrs n theirs. even if it's bad. especially if it's bad. that's the point
You gotta make home videos of some sort. Just like random bits of ideas and things you are joking about with friends, make that into a little skit and film it. It’s so fucking fun me and angel do it all the time. I wanna start a YouTube channel this summer and do more full length bits. This isn’t even a recommendation for content creators or whatever, you just gotta do this no matter who you are. It's very freeing and keeps life light. Even if nobody sees them but you.
im taking the path of least resistance… this is the way i like to live as i cant handle much more! but you do you, i salute and respect the spice grind…
