I’m applying but I was wondering do you have to show yourself in the video? Or can it just be actors (like friends)? Great video by the way!

Wow. Are you sure this is a student application film? To me this is a professional short. LOVE your video... very polished and easy to relax and just watch. Great job.

Hey, Matt! This is absolutely stunning. Your cinematography is sublime! I’m applying next year and have a few questions & it would me amazing if you could answer. Is this an original music score and if not, how did you manage to use it? Did you just cite it? And what equipment did you use? Your shots/camerawork were extraordinary. THANK YOU SO MUCH!
@mattshaffar79696 жыл бұрын
Hey Lana! Thank you so much. I had the help of a great cinematographer whose name is Omeed Farsoni. I also worked with Sam Pinkerton, a very talented musician, to create a longer version of one of her previous songs. So the music is not entirely original. To answer your second part, I just cited it by putting her name in the credits and in the description. Regarding the equipment, I used a Varicam 35 with Xeen Cine lenses. Thanks again, best of luck to you next year.

I liked your lack of dialogue - it shows that you understand the power of visuals, which you used very well. I also liked your story, which is very concisely made to be a touching message about respect and trust. Good luck in film school :)
