If I’d have more free time on my hands, I’d do more random short movies. I think video editing and filming is actually really nice! I had some video classes back in the days at polytechnic school, but back in those days, I used to think that I’d need loads of expensive equipment and shit. That’s not the case anymore.

Here’s a really random video I filmed with my iPhone. I didn’t plan to make a film. I just downloaded this really nice 8mm Vintage Camera app for iPhone. Next thing I knew, I was taking a walk in the forest with my dogs. I basically just filmed some awesome landscapes and then edited the thing together with iMovie on my Mac. I threw some vignette effects and background music to go with it and presto! A psychedelic forest adventure. Needless to say, that the film is quite pointless, but that’s how I like my movies.

Here’s an older short movie I did some years ago. It’s pretty much the same style as the new one, but it was done as a school assignment. And it was my first time with editing stuff. This is filmed with an actual HD-video camera and edited in Final Cut Pro.

I still like this film very much after all these years. I like to create an ambience rather than a followable story line. Why cannot a film be like listening to jazz? Just nice atmosphere and nothing else.

Aaaaand here’s one more. This was a school assignment too some years ago. I didn’t actually have much to do with work, since it was primarily a 3D and compositing exercise and I only filmed and edited it. My friend (the dude who takes the bullet in this one) was the one who was responsible for the 3D work and compositing. By the way, amazingly many class mates created also a video including a robot shooting at someone or something. What is it with hostile robots? I bet that is the most tired idea ever over used!
