Ambush - New test film, more action!

Hi there, 21st of March, almost Easter, Almost lived in this house a whole year now, plus thats over a year without drinking coca cola or pepsi cola, now I can drink it again, I just dont feel like it haha, man time flies when you are trying to make things happen.....

 Bunny King demands sacrifice! kawaii lol

Got a cheap soundsystem for my car, now I can finally have a little boom in my speakers :)

Still, keeping busy and sustaining my self progress, on the Last set of my days off -sprained ankle or not- I needed to keep shooting so I recruited a couple of friends and made a day of shooting a short film. We made all our busy windows fit which meant we only 2 hours to come up with the choreography (Lee likes to offer ideas so I basically kept my big moves in and put the others down for another day I will shoot myself) and his style of fighting contrast with Steves great kicking which made a pretty awesome mix after we figured something out.

AMBUSH is the result. Starring Lee Ah Yen and Steve Heke as 2 badasses on different sides of the law, so basically, an excuse to shoot a fight scene on a beautiful day at one of my favorite locations and edit the shit out of it. Below are 4 screenshots I took during Editing. Slowly getting the hang oof Adobe Premiere but only the basics plus time stretching/colors/tracks etc, I need to learn all the other cool stuff it surely offers with technical words I will never remember ;)

 



Here is the finished edited video for your viewing pleasure on youtube :)





Turned out pretty good for on the fly shooting. Looking forward to finishing the carnage script today so I can start location scouting for that and casting it up, heaps of action in this one I promise!!!

I'm going to sleep now, Got up early to take the wife to the airport as she went overseas this morning, So jealous, I want a holiday too haha, will have to wait til my sydney trip in June I think. Can't wait til Im rich and can travel anywhere, that would be awesome, anyway thats my bit for this week, leave you with a couple of feel good pics, one is why I wanted to be an actor, Johnny is living it!!! and the other is about keeping positive, It can make all things that seem impossible possible :)
 

 

I'm gonna be 27 this year so I want a feature film by the end of the year, no more 3 minute test films, so lets see if we can make it happen :)
