Whiplash | Cortometraje | 2012

[@erickt1974]

"The director and writer of the film, Damien Chazelle, could not get funding for the movie, so he instead turned it into a short film and submitted it into the Sundance Film Festival in 2013. The short film ended up winning the Short Film Jury Award, and he got funding soon after."

Esto da una buena lección por si un día quieren ser directores. Entre mejores cámaras, escenarios o tomas y entre mejores actores, definitivamente los actores son la preferencia.

[@xam.yo.3943]

totalmente de acuerdo, aun si la peli no se ve con la mejor calidad lo que mas convencerá al publico son las actuaciones

[@crushercete]

@@xam.yo.3943 como siempre dice Mckee, la clave es el final. los actores pueden estar defendiendo un guión, un curro del director, pero la obra, lo que te queda de ella, es el final. y si es impactante, es lo que te quedas.

[@sebastiancardb]

Probably 3 years before the real thing was premiered, but J.K Simmons was already nailing that menacing teacher role.

[@BarrySwords]

Sebastiancardb You should check him out in 'Oz'. He's such a nasty piece of shit in that show. Incredible actor.

[@lukezz493]

Yeah but I think that overall even his performance was better in the film. The little things like the slap on the pants after "ok maybe a bug flew in my ear" that here is missing, and even other things made the movie better imho

[@sebastiancardb]

I agree, but it was very close to actual performance that we all loved.Good eye with the details Luca

[@MarkArandjus]

Simmons' performance is so consistent I almost believe he was composited into the scenes he's exactly the same :D

[@ellis_odellis]

You can notice the subtle differences he chose with the movie, with his timing and some delivery. But it’s nice to see J.K. making it something fresh yet still carrying the same themes and ideas through to the final cut

[@faithwong9078]

He did reuse some shots though! Especially with Simmons, which might explain the consistency (source: kzbin.info/www/bejne/aaK8c2Sngd1niJo)

[@lucadelbosque]

The movie's lighting and cinematography in a more orangey, hugging light and a windowless brown room with a style of The Irishman or Godfather gives the viewer the belief that the band and the music they create is something much stricter and serious. It also gives Fletcher more belief of authority and compliance. Here, you do not feel the same as in the film, without a doubt, cinematography expresses a lot when watching it.

[@zyrrhos]

When you're working on a tight budget and stricter time constraints in film, you have to make compromises. But he was also figuring it out. You learn a lot from the process of making a short film and he probably made some refinements in the tone he wanted to capture in the feature. What stands out here are the characters and dialogue. It showcases his talent.

[@yagyeshtiwari1344]

After watching this short and the full length film, I realise the value of good cinematography and set design

[@bobbysands6923]

As a drummer who went to college this is one of the most disturbing scenes ever. There are more guys out there like that than you think.

[@dsenunez]

It is disturbing even if you are not a college drummer. This short film could show some bad professor behavior, but when you had seen the full movie I feel it even more disturbing. The film approve and legitimate abuse, because at the end Neiman plays the "solo of his life". I got serious issues with the movie being a music and jazz aficionado.

[@simonnomis3175]

Diego Sebastián Núñez the movie is a movie. End of it. Enjoy the acting and the drama, no need to search for inner meaning or something

[@dsenunez]

I completely disagree, I enjoy the acting and the drama because it have a meaning, there is no movie or story if it don't have a meaning. A movie is a movie because it is communicating something, even if it is a stupid comedy. So according to your point every movie is just hollow acting and drama, not my point of view at all. For sure Whiplash is very well done, the acting is great. However, It still legitimate, approve and even romanticize abuse and the relation between a bully and the bullied.

[@simonnomis3175]

Diego Sebastián Núñez what was I trying to say is that it's up to the viewer. I focused on his story, but never tried to get any morale or something. That was my point

[@dsenunez]

I agree when you say "it is up to the viewer". When I watch a movie o read a novel, I'm looking for entertainment but also it to say something about the world, not a morale, but how things could be or are. For me, if I focus on the story is not just a hollow purposeless sequence of events, they got a purpose, it is a discourse. The director for sure got a purpose, even if people find another meaning in his art, different of what he is trying to communicate. Isn't that the beauty about art. It could work as a mirror or as cliff when you can see life and the world, even yourself, in perspective. Art is trying to make the viewer think or feel something. Even "stupid comedies" got purpose, those try to make us laugh, isn't them.

[@sezzz9240]

Here after re-watching Whiplash, this is amazing... The camera movements, shots, close-ups and even all the lines are almost identical to the full film version! Everyone's talking about the difference but I'm actually really impressed that a short film could be this immersive

[@maltenrbk2332]

I mean it's good that Fletchers lines got adjusted, but even though the studio version of Whiplash sounds better than in this video, I actually prefer the natural sound from a rehearsal - makes it much easier to identify with

[@lacamaradeoscarfarina]

yeah, it feels much more real actually

[@Wikingking]

Just a subtle nuance showing director's greatness and adding to the lore: around 12:20 Carl starts to hold his sticks like he was knowing Fletcher's routine and that Nieman's time around the kit is to be cut short momentarily :D

[@Wikingking]

Ok, this is hilarious, he smirks constantly and that closer look at the chords/tables got me :D

[@12345663484]

The lower budget definitely hurts the short in that the room is nowhere near as imposing as the original, but the rest of the filmmaking (camerawork, editing, direction) are still super on point. The editing especially is so clean and flows so we'll. Also Simmons is just terrifying no matter where he is lol
