Davy Nominations: Best Editing

Watch the clip (36s)

Each year at Crockett, CCN hosted an Oscar-style award ceremony that we called The Davy Awards. I was in charge of the nomination videos. This is one of the 16 categories.

Watch the film (5m)

This is a short film I made in the film class at David Crockett High School. It was a last minute short that expressed my trivial frustrations with the college application process.

The official synopsis:
When a boy is faced with the deadline of writing an unusual college application essay, he conceives a utopian ideal that speaks louder than the standard drivel he has been forced to write.

Watch the video

This was the first video I ever made. Ever.

I'd like to think it was the beginning of a beautiful friendship.

I was using my digital camera that I bought for $20 at CompUSA. It could take very nice pictures with a resolution of 352X288. It could also take video for two seconds (10fps) at that res. or 8 seconds (10fps) at 176X144. Those are the settings I chose to use for this piece. Sometimes under this sort of gravitational pull the camera would kinda bleed all the colors into a purple distorted image, and I could've had my guys in hollywood clean it up, but I think it shows the native natural beauty of low res. digital photography.

Enjoy.

For the Record,

When I think about William Shakespeare, I think:
"He's an A+ number one writer dude"
