Project Highlight: Anwuli Ilegbe– Dance Sword Gyrotonic

Upper Manhattan served as the perfect backdrop for our recent collaboration with Anwuli Ilegbe, Harlem's premier Gyrotonic studio. Working alongside the talented Producer Sarah East Johnson, we shot for the essence of this innovative local business through dance, samurai swordship, and hands-on gyrotonic exercise with its founders, Oza Agu and Efe Alibo along with their clients. Enjoy a sneak peek of our journey with them through these stills and behind-the-scenes snapshots. Stay tuned for the films!

Production Documents - Documentary (Selkies)

Same thing I did with adaption, but with doc-- again, won't be too many!

My notes for the main body of our shoot - I didn't cut in order to catch everything I could in the limited shoot time we had, so this meant going back, having a listen, and transcribing the action(s) that were happening. I'm glad we had discussed not cutting and that I kept speeding, because this was actually easier to work with in post than if I had tried to break up the day with 'themed' sound files, when trying to catch certain things. All I had to do was change the position of the Boom and I could catch what I wanted immediately.

The links are to the transcribed interviews where there is speaking. I used Descript, which is pretty alright for a free software. I had to go through to edit for accuracy, which took so much time, and since I was kind of skimming i'd say it was maybe 90% accurate in the end. It might be worth investing in a (cheap but decent) transcribing software if I want to keep doing documentary.

Some (messy) pre-shoot breakdown notes

bad decisions were made and tickets were acquired (my midterm is the next morning)

We are facing the greatest upheaval since industrialization. To stop climate change, the energy system must be transformed worldwide. Very little time remains to accomplish this. But there are places where this renewable future has already arrived.

The documentary explores the question of what needs to happen in terms of politics, policies, and society to implement what is technically possible, when it comes to renewable energy. To do this, the film visits two completely different places. One is in the US and the other, in Bavaria. These localities have two things in common: Both have completely converted their energy supply to renewables and as a result, both now have more money in their coffers today than before.

The documentary provides a global overview of the solutions that already exist for a worldwide energy transition. And it asks what challenges still need to be overcome -- not only in the laboratories and power plants, but also among the movers and shakers who must drive the change today.

Part 1:

• Will renewables stop t...

Body Prop TRAILER 2024 from M. Woods on Vimeo.

IN ANTICIPATION OF PERIPHERIES EXPERIMENTAL FILM AND VIDEO FESTIVAL 2024 peripheriesfestival.com

On Friday the 13th Sweet Void Cinema will be screening a the world premiere of M. Woods’ 3rd feature film BODY PROP.

Sweet Void Cinema is located at 3036 W Chicago Ave 1W, Chicago IL, 60622. Tickets go on sale at peripheriesfestival.com on September 2nd. Tickets also available at the door.

8:30PM - BODY PROP by M. Woods (2024) 75’ BODY PROP is an avant-garde essay film and attack against the ontology of white imperialism. Made of mostly hand-processed super 8 film, 16mm, and archival video. The piece, in five movements, takes on the subject of the Body as a prop, as a body politic, as a simulation, and as a necropolitical expense, creating a “Cadaver Decomposition Island” of discarded scraps of Super 8 and archival material to reveal the shadow of US nihilism within the advanced stage of hyperreality.

Select movements from Body Prop have been screened internationally including at the Oberhausen International Short Film Festival, VideoEx, Peripheries Experimental Film & Video Festival, the Ann Arbor Film Festival, and the Athens International Film and Video Festival.

Bay Area Premiere: Carrying Capacity

Our short documentary, Carrying Capacity, will screen at SF Docfest on June 2 at the Roxie Theater in San Francisco. Awarded Best Short Documentary at the Vail Film Festival, the film explores a unique patient-doctor relationship. It follows a journey from psychiatric breakdown to breakthroughs in the lab, exploring potential motivations for developing neuroscience technology to gain deeper insights into autism brain states. Inspired by Karl Deisseroth’s Projections, we crafted a story with characters from his book, reflecting on neurodivergence and mental health in the heart of Silicon Valley today.

Join us for this special screening by purchasing tickets to Shorts Block 2, where we will be showcasing our work alongside other talented local filmmakers, including Director Cassidy Friedman, with whom we previously collaborated on an episode of Unsung. While at the festival, we highly recommend checking out some other must-see films, such as Bay Area Stories 1, Who is Michael Jang, If I Could Stay/Si Pudiera Quedarme, Vincent, and First Class. Don't miss this opportunity to support local filmmakers and enjoy a diverse selection of captivating documentaries at SF Docfest.

Final Reflection: Documentary, Selkies

{youtube link xoxo}

Alright, lets get straight into it!!

For a quick Location recording review: I had been a bit concerned about the waves drowning everything out, but the 416 pleased me greatly and with some booming choices I managed to get some good chatter and some chatter in the ocean too. I wish I had done Wild Track of footsteps but the shoots were so quick, and with it being documentary subjects that we didn't want to ask to stage/do certain things, I didn't get it. I didn't end up needing it in post but just for some flexibility (And if I really had wanted it could have foley’d, but I was crunched for time due to picture lock and managing sound for adaption at the same time).

The interview was shockingly clean as well (or maybe expectedly clean, i did heave and haw over where to shoot it and did my best in an uncontrolled environment), and I think the location we picked ended up being the best in regards to the location for that. Even the birds weren't too much of an issue in the mix. The only thing is that I wish I had one other person there with me on sound. If they could have had a shotgun/boom as well, and maybe a second mixpre for being able to move around freely, it would have been interesting to have more variety.

Now onto post!

I did this film in three to four 10 hour days. Which. Jesus christ.

I built the sound from the ground up. The only thing I had was the voiceover and some sync sound, so It was an empty playground. Considering the amount of tracks I ended up using and what a full session it was, I am astounded at how relatively organized I managed to keep the session. So many folders.

I pulled in some stuff from my sound library and soundbanks, as well as atmos and got to work. Anne Marie gave me good advice, in that she recommended throwing everything you think you'll need if not more into the session and then go through it and mute/hide/lower volume/raise volume as needed. This was a massive tip and really helped create a fuller world.

It passed in a blur to be honest. The only thing I would do different is maybe try panning stuff, like the waves and voices, to match visually where they are in respect to the camera (ocean on the left, people on both sides/slightly more to the right). To be fair this might be difficult due to just how all encompassing and intermingled everything is, but with some creative cutting and jush-ing we could see what can be done.

All in all, again, good practice learning what works and doesn't in the workflow. It's a lovely doc and The Salty Sisters are really lovely ladies, and for the most part i'm happy with it

Πέμπτη 1 Ιουλίου. Η επίσημη πρώτη προβολή του ντοκιμαντέρ Challenging Everesting του @kostasntanis και του @panteliz βασισμένο στην περσινή προσπάθεια του @takxu για ολοκλήρωση του Everesting των 10000 υψομετρικων στον Υμηττό. Σήμερα και για μια μονό ημέρα ή προβολή του θα είναι ανοικτή για όλους στον παρακάτω σύνδεσμο του vimeo : https://vimeo.com/560846764/e8b339eb6d Ο λόγος που από αύριο δεν θα υπάρχει πρόσβαση για προβολή είναι γιατί σύντομα θα προβληθεί στην ΕΡΤ ενώ θα συμμετάσχει σε διάφορα κινηματογραφικα φεστιβάλ ανά τον κόσμο. Θα μας τιμουσε να το παρακολουθήσετε σήμερα οποιαδήποτε ώρα της ημέρας και να διαβάσουμε τα σχόλιά σας σχετικά. Η προσπάθεια των δύο δημιουργών ήταν ιδιαίτερα δύσκολη μιας και ήθελαν να αναδείξουν το σκοπό που έγινε όλο αυτό, ένα event χωρίς σενάριο και με, εξ ορισμού, μονοτονία, χωρίς δοκιμαστικά ή επαναληπτικά γυρίσματα. Ελπίζουμε να σας κρατήσει το ενδιαφέρον και να περάσετε 50 όμορφα λεπτά αυτή τη ζεστή μέρα του Ιουλίου. Η ανάλυσή του είναι 4Κ και η διάρκειά του 50 λεπτά, οπότε ιδανικό θα ήταν να το δείτε σε μεγάλη οθόνη εφόσον μπορείτε. #everesting #bicycle #takxu #panteliz #docfilm #filmedingreece #newfilm #aboutbicycle #challengingeveresting https://www.instagram.com/p/CQysJQxL1hX/?utm_medium=tumblr

A new documentary about Grace Jones opens in New York April 13 and in LA April 20, with a nationwide release to follow. Sophie Fiennes directed “Grace Jones: Bloodlight and Bami,” about the singer/actress/model/icon. It premiered at the Toronto International Film Festival last fall. If the director’s name sounds familiar that’s because she’s the sister of actors Ralph and Joseph Fiennes #documentary #docfilm #docfilms #nonfictionfilm #actor #singer #model #filmmaking #fiennes #tiff2017
