Bruce Del Porte Posted December 27, 2012 Posted December 27, 2012 It has been a while since I made a complete micromovie. Let me say, doing a study of Alfred Hitchcock's directing through one of his masterpieces has been a great learning experience. I had a great time doing this project. I was determined to finish by year's end and I made it with a week to spare! Keeping true to the "One-Man-One-Computer" ethos, I used a number of the public models very much to the improvement the piece. Let me give special kudos to the builders of the "Rear Window" set. It is a wonderful miniverse. The set looks great from long shots to extreme close-ups. Bravo and thank you to the organizers and contributors to the 2012 Forum Project.

ruscular Posted December 28, 2012 Posted December 28, 2012 It was great! Then I saw my name and watch it again to see what I contribute! Then I saw the card game and laugh! Nice animation in the card game, and the chips slipping thru the finger. Quote

Bruce Del Porte Posted December 31, 2012 Author Posted December 31, 2012 Thanks guys for your kind words. I had a lot of fun doing the piece. Hitchcock is on of those film makers that is almost a genre by himself. There is a lot of academic analysis of his film making available and doing a study adds a lot of interesting tricks to the tool box that are applicable to animation. Quote
Bruce Del Porte Posted February 15, 2013 Author Posted February 15, 2013 Of course I couldn't leave well enough alone. Colorado Springs host an international film festival each summer and have a category for local film makers. I took a flyer and have entered this as a short. Based on some feedback, I added a short scene and tightened up the ending but still basically the same movie. I'll have most of the spring to give it another scrub. This is my submission tweak.
