Circling the Crease

Two new cuts of my old flick "Slapshot". One is called Circling the Crease and it can be viewed here. The other one is called "Shot to the 5 Hole" and it can be viewed here.

These two movies are 1 minute and 30 seconds, respectively. By request from Lee, I am taking the Less than a Minute Challenge. My goal is to do more with sound, or lack of it, as well as incorporating text. I'm finding it hard to use text beyond the title, but for now, it works. I want to make better titles, maybe animate them some how. I also am exploring more techniques which will hopefully lead to a more symbolic, surreal, or hyper real feel to the videos. More on that later. (hint: it involves Mattes) I may also switch from Final Cut Pro to Adobe Premiere.

Searching for a topic for my last paper. I'm not sure I can outdo my last one, which clocked in at 3000 words. I would like to just expand on it, maybe look at some different artists, and relate it to the same kind of stuff. who knows.

By the way, I had "Balls of Ice" accepted into the Anchorage International Film Festival in the "Snowdance" category.

That's all I have for now,
Mike Out
