Hi guys... In the last 6 week I was in Florence at the NYFA (New York Film Academy)... Every week we had to shoot a video following the theme of the week. In the 3rd one it was the music video, and I choose to do "She Never Told Me She Was Mime".

Actually the video is not in digital, but it was shooted with an arriflex 16. It's really expensive... i payed 200 $ for 3 rolls (every roll is 3 minutes).

I think the video is good cos usually u have lot of problems with lights and focus (and i don't wanna tell ya about crews and time problems)....but give me some feedback and tell me what do you think...i tried to do my best...in digital it would be more easier and creative...but....

Apocaloso, I'm having trouble getting the video to play. Hopefully it will resolve itself when I wake up in a few hours. Looking forward to see what you came up with though. I can definitely relate to your Arriflex issues. (T)

I really enjoyed that. The girl who played the mime was very good. I like the part where she mimed getting you something to drink and then "spilled" it. :lol: You should send that to Bermuda.

Or send an email to the Mothership. Bermuda is the Webmaster there. Really good work; great air band; excellent mime, and it made the song much funnier (I loved the bit where it was clear that the reason he didn't realize she was a mime at first was because he was so busy doing all the talking himself).

Nice job! This is exactly what that song needed I think, never was too big of a fan of that track before, but now I like it a little more. You all did a great job in this video, the band's amusing, and whoever played the mime did a very good job also. By the way, I like the creative, but subtle humor in this video. 8)

Fry (can I call you Fry?), I just saw your film.

GREAT work! I'm very impressed with the project, and I am very well aware of how limiting the Arriflex can be creatively, especially when you're worrying about budgetary and technical problems.

Good work though. I'd love to see any of your other film projects if you have them available.

Awesome video. My favorite part was the Zappa shirt.

Seriously though, it was a fantastic video, I look forward to more.
