Icarus |
Hey everyone,
Monty again, got another movie here.
So umm, first off. I WILL NEVER LIVE UP TO HALOID. Goddamn! That was
one crazy month. It was a fluke I tell ya. Pure luck/coincidence.
Now that that's outta the way. This movie here was thisclose to being
scrapped. I closed up the ends and pushed the pieces in place. But I
have been so bloody buisy this last month that making this movie happen
was quite a feat. I cut out about half of what I intended. I'm
nonetheless glad to have finished, but as always this could have been
so much better. Chunky motion data, some pretty bad layouts, a horrible
rendition of myself, no ending to speak of. But all in all I still made
it happen. And it happened for this:
It seemed like destiny when I heard about this contest. Me who's been
watching John Woo movies since I was 11 yrs old have been waiting for
something like this. If only the timing were better that I could have
made a better movie, as well as get around some of the other
techinicalities which makes me already disqualified at any chance of
winning that $25,000.
Regardless of that I still wanted to finish this movie, because more
important than the money (though I wouldn't complain.) Is the notion
that John Woo himself might see my work. And regardless of quality, wat
I hope for most people to see my vision.
And that's what John Woo means to me. Vision and the drive for
symbolism so strong that you're willing to sacrifice continuity and
quality for sheer powerful symbolism. I think that's what makes him
somewhat controversial. I hope for somehow my efforts to reach him and
perhap strike a chord.
Some of the rules of the competition (which I've already broken) include:
1. Must not contain any copyright violations.
I'm using the theme song to Zone of the Enders 2, "Beyond the Bounds."
2. The video must only be on their myspace page.
Well nuts to that. Since there's one more reason I can't state the
makes me ABSOLUTELY ineligible to win th prize. I might as well add it
here to my collection and home for videos Gametrailers.com.

Some of you will notice I went with crows instead of the typical "John
Woo doves" mostly because I felt adding a little of my own flavour. The
quote in the contests profile has John Woo stating:
"Young filmakers need encouragement to grow; it is an aspect of my
proffesion which I cherish deeply. I know the Stranglehold Short Film
Contest will new new talent and with it, new possiblilites."
My first thought when I set out to make this movie was where is would
take place. The Killer, my all time favorite John Woo movie, took place
in a church, Hard Boiled in a hospital. I wanted something similar in
terms of what sort of contrary scene I could make. My girlfriend out of
the blue came up with a genious idea... A library.
Further down I was testing and rendering when I accidentally rendered
the scene without any textures. Seeing my library completely white it
hit me. A color scheme that I had had my eye on for some time was the
perfect choice. Not onlyto make this movie more artistic, but also add
to it's efficiency.
In fact this movie is me partly trying to also add an element of art
into my movies. The color palette of strict white red and black was a
choice I'm very happy I made. Someday I'll make the movie I really
wanted to make with the color palette. So in this movie you'll see:
A stark white library/church With white books
An occaisional a red book.
Two protagonists dressed in black.
All of the antagonists garbed in black with a touch of red.
And black crows with red eyes.
It was also rather difficult, not aiming for my usual over the top
fantasy styled action. And still I couldn't help wanting to defy the
laws of physics here and there. So overall I hope this movie's artistic
style and (somewhat) reasonable action scenes will entertain.
Mr. Woo if your reading, I too cherish filmaking, and cinematography. I
feel the path that has lead me is similar to yours in that though my
credentials and methods are questionable, my results are unarguable.
You have been an inspiration, and I hope my path finds it's way towards
you someday.
My next movie will top this a hundred fold. And will be crazy sexy to boot.
