I was wondering if anyone wanted to collaborate for the short film contest? Id look to meet and brainstorm in the next two weeks to film the 1st-2nd of August. This would be all about pulling favors for crew, actors and locations. I dont expect it to make any waves but simply trying to make something alittle experimental using simple camera tricks with a decent story can at least get seen in the contest. Im submitting a short I already made and would expect anyone joining this endeavor to do so if they have one. Im based in brooklyn, I have a T2i with two simple lenses. Also an anamorphic lens with adapter and diopters for the t2i. Cards batteries and a mass of DIY materials and know how for lights.
Chris - network with Jenn Mello and Mylo Carbia in the NYC area...great places to start for you! Also, check out the past New York meetups (top menu bar) for a list of filmmakers who attended them and reach out to them....good luck!
Thank you very much Julie.
