Title: Short short motorcycle film (inspired by 1974 Australian film STONE) Post by: S21FOLGORE on March 25, 2020, 08:30:36 AM I’m a big fan of “short short story.
"For sale: baby shoes, never worn." Well, whether it really was Earnest Hemingway’s creation or not, I like most of his stuff, esepcially short stories. (Except, maybe “The snows of Kilimanjaro”.) And, I also like “extremely short” films. https://youtu.be/LMXiQB5ilYY The idea came from the opening sequence of 1974 Australian film, "STONE" (opening scene on youtube, not great quality, but you get the idea) https://youtu.be/8V9lciB21ds If you are curious, here's full movie in much better quality. (That scene starts at around 6:30) https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x3bngr3 Title: Re: Short short motorcycle film (inspired by 1974 Australian film STONE) Post by: koko64 on March 26, 2020, 11:42:52 PM Memories.

I like to do this kind of “short film” without dialogue / monologue. Telling story by just graphics is so much more fun. (There are quite a bit of “motorcycle short films” on Youtube. Many of them, especially the ones featuring cruiser / hardtail bobber / scrambler type of thing tend to have voice over narration, which I don’t find interesting, at all. (Please note: I am not saying they are bad, I am only saying they are not for me. And, it really doesn’t surprise me. Motorcycles are neither fashion nor lifestyle statement (to me), I don’t grow facial hair, I don’t have tattoos, I don’t smoke, I don’t drink, and I don’t do drugs.) A good example of “graphic story telling, rather than heavily relying on words” would be Akira Kurosawa’s films. (You can grasp the story line even without subtitles. Because, in his film, the “picture” is telling the story.) Another good example would be first 15-20 minutes of “MAD MAX 2 (The road warrior)”. Watch it again if you have already seen it, while paying attention how many times, how much words Max speaks. (Throughout the movie (Mad Max2), Max Rockatansky speaks very little. Most of the “story telling” in this film is done by visual.) Anyhow, some more example of great motorcycle cinematography, without the word. From first Mad Max https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tqPO-kHRIvU Ending of “Rumble Fish” (You can’t see his face, but it’s Matt Dillon, You can’t see the color (because it’s blakc &white film) but it’s “fire cracker red” GPz550) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-t3t-k92Dx8&feature=emb_logo Title: Re: Short short motorcycle film (inspired by 1974 Australian film STONE) Post by: S21FOLGORE on April 11, 2020, 10:44:14 PM Kick start my life
