Thanks. No, in fact everything was easy and quick: lyrics, music and video. I began writing the songs in June. I did this very quickly because this is a very powerful subject and it's easy to get ideas. On the other hand, it's not a subject I wanted to be so close for too long. Yeah, it's...

I wrote a sequence of 6 songs and because I was experimenting with 360 films I decided to use them as base for a film. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8LjLRlHi4UU https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8LjLRlHi4UU If you watch it with the youtube app on a tablet or...

I loved both the film and the soundtrack. I reminded me of something that happened a few years ago. I had a film in a competition that depended on the public vote, each person could only vote once per day. My film was fighting for the top spot with a film about witches, directed by this woman...

Loved it. Great combination of animation technicques and very creative.

Some time ago there was a competition to make a video to be used at a live performance of "Cloudbusting" (a Kate Bush tribute band). They play this song live with a video as background. I made a video and I don't know if I may submit it or not to film festivals. Are copyright issues a problem...

I wish you all the luck with the project. The trailer was very enticing.

I'm finishing the 3rd chapter and working on the 4th at the same time. The 1st one's theme was polygamy. The 2nd dealt with depending on someone to survive. The 3rd deals with domestic violence. Here's the teaser for the 3rd: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mNdc_erDC8Q

I have been submitting the 1st chapter to film festivals and it was selected by a few. It received the "Award of Excellence in Filmmaking or Screenwriting at the 2015 Canada International Film Festival." :) Hopefully this will help to open a few more doors.

Thanks Rafael Here it is with subtitles. There are parts in English, French and Portuguese. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=inVEwV9D4Po If you're really, really depressed and in the middle of an existencial crisis you may like the film :)

Thanks for letting me know. I tried it with Chrome and it plays, but it doesn't play with Firefor or IE. I am working on the subtitles and upload it to youtube later. I am looking to show the film anywhere :)

I finished it! Here's the full film: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B6ppf3_ZNJ6hTDFjcVNpRGdQaWM/ Here's the trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UNCtQ8EbtHI I would really love to present this film as part of a live show.

"Morto Vivo" - a 15 song cycle turned into film - FINISHED! Back in 1992 I started working on a 15 song cycle that revolves around existencialism. By 1995 it was complete. In 2009 I thought about turning that music piece into a film and I am now working on the last song, so the film will be...

BTW, I am running an Indiegogo campaign to make an English version of the 1st series: https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/battle-of-the-shells-you-select-the-leading-actress Here's the trailer for the 1st series: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VNO4WtaCSbM I am letting the funders select...

Thanks for the feedback. As I am still writing I will try to be more attentive to that. Here's the link to the full 1st chapter - https://vimeo.com/92862342 (password : pemba). I had to make the video on youtube private so I don't have problems with some film festivals. This series is the...

Thanks! Filming this in Africa was the best time of my life and every day it's a challenge to put these films together out of the 700 hours of footage I gathered there. But it's great fun :-)

I think I managed to pull off a nice trailer for the 1st chapter: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_-mWMdwcRZQ And here's a teaser for the 2nd chapter: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rBGC5fvOZFo

When I started working on this series I had no idea that there would be so much work just after the 1st chapter was completed in order to try be among the 0.001% of films that make money. This thread as made me revise my priorities. I decided that my main goal is to have the series finished...

I recently messed up with a film festival. They selected one of my films as their top 3 and asked for a high quality version and I sent them the wrong film. The film they had selected was an older one, from a previous series. That film is narrated in Portuguese and I decided to give it another...

Yes. Disregarding customers is the key to failure in any business. Mixing business, passion and art and try to make them work together is a difficult job, even when there's lots of people editing each others ideas. I found a video where a guy talks for a while about statistics concerning...

I see this more and more as an expensive hobby, given the chances of making any money in micro-budget films, unless you don't use your own funds at all. When I see friends that have projects of turning their hobbies into a business I always fear for them, because loving too much an activity...
