This didn't demonstrate how you guys operate on a low budget at all. Better luck on the next missions.

Either auto script is confused on where it is going with the story ... Or maybe there really is an Autoscript and this is just its ploy at world domination? In continence indeed.

Creative little clip, keeps you wondering what's going on.

AutoScript Inception? Fun idea, but I'm not sure I caught what the Cheap Tricks were. Loved the camera on camera on camera pull backs though.

Jeannette L.
Posted 6 months ago

Thanks Jay! The monitors were composites with the green screen being the main visual effect. Shot the last segment on an iphone - cheap, but not a trick. Cinecoup had also asked us to show what resources we had access to, so the final shot gives a glimpse of the type of gear at our fingertips!

Couldn't even tell it was an iPhone. Thats pretty awesome! Thanks for the reply.

Ashley H.

This was very slick. Someone said something about it not being fluid - I don't care. I liked it the way it was - sold the indie part of it for me.

I think you did a great job with the entire concept, I'd like to see you push it to it's limit a bit more too! Great job team, keep going!

If the studio was set up in a circluar fashion, the camera movements might be more fluid. Not sure this was really a 'cheat' method. Or behind the scenes look at a trick

Jeannette L.
Posted 6 months ago

Great idea about the circular shot set-up. Unfortunately we were using a cheap trick - BYOS (Build your own studio) and the room was also partially set up for FAVA Fest - a local 3D expo, so we couldn't shoot in two and a half directions!

Is it real or isn't it. Cute couple and interesting concept. How many layers of reality are there?? Is the baby real?? LOL !!

Jeannette L.
Posted 6 months ago

The baby was real - I was holding her so her mom could be using the Arri S3 in the shot. Shane just went with it. Little Alice also had a cameo in our first pitch video!

I like the layers! And the acting. Especially that dreamboat Jamie C.

Kris J.
Posted 7 months ago

Great concept! I like the whole "movie within a movie" reminds me of something out of inception. Its also my worst nightmare, not knowing which scene is reality.. WHEN WILL IT END?! Holy crap I think I smoked too much
Great job guys! Good Luck!

You went to Paris? Amazing! It's cheaper there? ;)

Jennifer E.
Posted 7 months ago

I guess I don't know enough about film-making to understand how this is a cheap trick.

Jeannette L.
Posted 7 months ago

We'll explain better next time! We used a green screen and everything on a monitor/screen was done with visual effects.

Marty H.

Joyce S.

great use of green screen.would have liked to have heard about how you are optimizing reasources.

Jeannette L.
Posted 7 months ago

Thanks Joyce - glad you asked! Besides being able to do most of the above the line work ourselves, we're part of a film co-op in Edmonton called FAVA and have access to a lot of equipment either at low or no cost. Our FAVA bucks allow us to rent anything that Ken doesn't already own at 50% off their already reasonable prices. Check out their fantastic equipment list http://fava.ca/30th/attachments/article/68/FAVA%20Equipment%20List%20Print_JAN_2013_FINAL.pdf

Brendan R.

Bwahaha, I love the continual pulling back of the perspective to show the various meta-layers present in the making of this, an amusing look into what it's like to make a movie about making a movie.

Kris S.

Is this the top layer?

Shane L.
Posted 7 months ago

Not quite sure which layer is the "this" you're referring to, but it goes like this: AutoScript is a mockumentary about a group of people trying to make a film. The first shot of this mission video is that film. The second shot is the mockumentary itself - this is the actual film that we are trying to make. The third shot is intended to be reality - that bald dude who can't act is me. The very last shot is just another layer that we put in there for fun :)
