After Dark

sharpshark28 — Fri, 19 Mar 2010 16:51:18 +0000

This is an adaptation of the story After Dark My Sweet by Jim Thompson done as a class project with a great number of people who are all listed appropriately in the ending credits.

Our class was split into two groups to pick a short story to adapt to during production, and then during post production we were split again into four subgroups. So in the end there were four videos based off of two different stories, this is from my group and my specific subgroup.

My subgroup consisted of:
Alex Ewing – http://www.youtube.com/user/AlexEwing
Mike Cannon – http://www.youtube.com/user/Hylias
Seth Maule – http://www.facebook.com/seth.maule?re…
And myself as the Cinematographer and Assistant Editor/Effects Creator.

Thanks to everyone who helped make this film possible!

Photographer – Class Project This was a group class project with a huge time constraint of only having a week and a half and under an hour to actually do the shoot. The other obvious restriction is that we could not use any sound, we also couldn’t move the camera at all, could only use 8-10 shots, and it [...]...

Photographer – Class Project

This was a group class project with a huge time constraint of only having a week and a half and under an hour to actually do the shoot. The other obvious restriction is that we could not use any sound, we also couldn’t move the camera at all, could only use 8-10 shots, and it had to be around 3-5 minutes in length.

Group consisted of
Brandon Cole
Giancarlo Lodevico – http://www.youtube.com/user/GCXtremeB…

and myself, Joseph Wroten.

for the class of Video 2 at AACC with Jenny Sheppard.

This is a video remix of footage from Hot Fuzz and Shaun of the Dead produced for educational purposes for a class project, we were allowed to use this footage on the grounds that we changed the intended purpose (the overall meaning) of the films so there was no plagiarism involved. The background music is by Lunar.

Two main things to consider, obviously the giant white circle will be another planet (yes, obviously shhh).

And I’ll be adjusting everything to have a much happier feel when the piece is completed. Right now it’s a bit gritty is it not? Eternal Nights will revolve around happiness as always.
