Permit vs. Ticket To shoot a teaser for “Aftermath,” a post-apocalyptic project, filmmaker Christopher English (@mobilefilmmaking) needed a broken-down building. He found an abandoned factory that was perfect for his purpose. The bad news: Because he neglected to get permission to use the spot, he was given a $15 ticket. The good news: The ticket was cheaper than a permit. You can see the two-minute teaser and read an interview with the filmmaker at MobileMovieMaking (link in profile). #shotoniPhone #locationscouting #permits #guerillafilmmaking https://www.instagram.com/p/Ch2hbrLJbTZ/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Slanted for a Purpose Cinematography is at its best when it goes beyond aesthetics to reinforce a film’s meaning. That goal is realized in this shot from “Incremental,” a music video directed by South African filmmaker @BrionneOlsen. The off-vertical composition fits perfectly with the turbulent rhythms of the rap artist Teshxn. “Incremental” is the current Mobile Movie of the Week.

I cover all kinds of protests: sometimes, I’m a supporter of one side over another, however, there are those moments both sides are nuts and I’m always thinking… #guerillafilmmaking #freepress #protests #protestsigns #streetfights #streetphotography #guerillaphotography https://www.instagram.com/p/CR610D4nePs/?utm_medium=tumblr

Fatboy Slim - Praise You

So, I am writing this blog for the sake of this video above. I know; even though the music is mesmerizing and reaaaally catchy, the video is the actual subject. 

This video was made for the song. You know, when someone is watching a music video they expect to see dancers, a story maybe, some visual effects can be added. For example, I think of Ariana Grande or Doja Cat. Thousand and millions dollars for the budget, and yet here we are. Watching a video from 1999 with... the lowest budget ever? I searched for this video, you know, for the epic history of the epic video. I found out that this video style is called Guerrilla film making. It’s a name for really cheap and indie productions. In facts, shots are often shoot in public spaces just like in this video. With no warning, no announces and no expectations... 

Another thing I found out about this video was, the dancing group are some volunteers to dance? They are called  The Torrance Community Dance Group. Considered that this video is a low budget production on purpose, it is a perfect example. 

The funniest thing is that this song became really famous and shown on MTV and even won 3 awards! Not even one! The reason why it’s funny is beacuse people believe that this video was made as a joke and not taken seriously by MTV untill they really became a thing.

That really does inspire me to shoot a movie, music video or even a video for YouTube or TikTok ( I try not to forger we are in 2021). Imagine just dancing this bad while the audences are watching and it is actually liked, even won awards!

Five Ways to Shoot Crowd Scenes on a Shoestring Budget Crowd scenes can add realism and energy to a movie—think of the Normandy landing sequence in Spielberg’s “Saving Private Ryan.” Done Hollywood style—hiring extras and/or controlling public spaces—crowd scenes typically are expensive. But with ingenuity, it’s possible to get crowds into low—or no—budget films. The main challenge is not drawing attention to the production—so that people in the crowd won’t look into the camera. The frames here—from the powerful drama “Old Man and Tokyo”—suggest techniques that the director Yasuyuki Kubota used…or might have used. 1. Hide the camera. (This is relatively easy if you’re using a smartphone.) 2. Shoot from a distance. 3. Shoot looking down on the scene. 4. Shoot from behind your actor (for example going up an escalator) 5. Shoot lots of footage, looking for a clip in which no one stares at the camera or gets involved in the action “Old Man and Tokyo”—starring Atsushi Kato— is the current Mobile Movie of the Week.
