This Film with a duration of 2 minutes only takes 30 minutes to shoot, and succeeds as an Oscar-winning short film. *A Film without words, but successfully describes human life today;* - Selfish - Poor ethics - Loss of manners - Always feels right - Doesn’t care about the surrounding environment - Doesn’t want to give in - Doesn’t want to share or even sacrifice for others. - Loss of empathy and sympathy. Maybe this film is just a spectacle but it could also be that we are actually the characters in this short film. A film loaded with moral messages. Good to share and to make those who watch it aware and touched...!!!🙏 #ccpn

Another glowing review for Existenz! With a intriguing foundation, Existenz effectively utilizes the talk show format to provoke questions about reality and fame, adding a satirical touch through strong performances and solid direction. - Rebecca, Film Carnage #existenz #shortfilm #filmfestivals #chaosgoesprimetime #experimental

As a first-time director, there are plenty of challenges you might face during production, but what is the WORST thing that can happen? We believe the absolute worst outcome would be that your film gets made, and you never share it! 😭 There are so many benefits you will personally gain from the process of making your film - you learn new skills quickly, develop your own unique style, and get a huge sense of achievement as the project comes to life. But we've found that it's only when you release your film, and let other people see it, that the greatest impact begins. In Week 4 of Get It Made, we encourage our participants to see the value of the film they have produced, and share that film confidently with an audience. Not only does releasing your film open doors to further opportunities, it also allows your story to be seen by people who can connect with it, whose lives just might be changed as a result 🎥 APPLY NOW for October 2024: breakingjar.com/made #storieschanginglives #redirectors #filmproduction #independentfilm

I've been getting some very interesting reactions to this film 😍 I had nothing to do with writing the script (it was written and directed by Nakiah Varcianna; I have an EP credit) and I had no creative input to what you see on screen, yet people are still perceiving me within the film. Whether it's the look Rita gives Mike when he comes up with excuses about why he can't follow his dreams, or my voice in their head when they are wondering whether to take that risk (sometimes years after we had a conversation): somehow this film reminds people of me - and jolts them into action. This has left me reflecting on several things: 1) Why we are attracted to the projects we choose take on and take into our hearts - whether as filmmakers or audience 2) How we often don't realise - or recognise - the profound ways in which we we can subconsciously impact people, and how that impact can last a lifetime 3) How the films we make - even when primarily intended as entertainment - can be the catalyst in someone else's growth and has the potential to change their life. Bookyville is already punching above its weight, and it's a beautiful thing. P.S. Apologies to anyone who is haunted by my voice in their head: just walk towards your dream step by step and I promise my voice will recede 😅

Conflict is the driving force behind every compelling film narrative. 🎥 Whether it’s internal struggles or external battles, conflict adds depth and tension, making the story more engaging. Which type of conflict captivates you the most? Share your thoughts in the comments below! ⬇️

The last few weeks I've had a few people tell me how much they have enjoyed my first short film Cashpoint. I made that film in 2018 with barely any money, pulled in a ton of favours but I can't watch it anymore because I see all it's flaws. That was a passion project, I put no pressure on myself to write it, just made it because I wanted to prove to myself that I could make a film. The people around me told me to submit to festivals, so I did. I remember getting rejected by a lot of film festivals and one online platform (I won't name names) gave me feedback that read ....'it feels like a lot of buildup to what is essentially a pretty basic reveal' and 'just being let down by a somewhat unsatisfying payoff' and 'we wish the film went a bit further and felt more emotionally resonate' They way this knocked my ability was unreal, honestly I thought I made a CRAP film. My love for it died that day. Even know when people tell me they liked I'd be like 'Are you sure?' lol What really interesting to me is that I've worked on a few things since then and that feedback has never left me. It's actually put a pressure on me that whatever I come up with needs to be even better. I need to be even better, my ideas need to be even better. I even submitted my 2nd film to that same platform because I made sure it emotionally resonated like they said but they still rejected me. Whatevs lol But people keep telling me how much they really enjoyed it. Which brings me to my point, feedback is subjective to one individual or group of peoples opinion. It doesn't define your ability as a whole. Some people will love what you do and some won't. That's okay. I've finally begun to be able to shake that feedback off now and confidently work on things without worrying if its 'basic', 'unsatisfying' or a 'let down'. If I love it then that's all that matters. https://lnkd.in/dqFRmH5C
