Interesting use of B&W and grain to juxtapose the revolution footage with post-revolution.
Can you perhaps speak to your reasoning behind that?
Seems interesting to me considering that the overall message of the film is that the thread of suppressed emotion that started the revolution still remains - remains and is in tension with rebuilding a functional democratic infrastructure.
Overall - another example of why I subscribe to the Staff blog. Well done.
My main aim with the flash back and present day scenes was to make a contrast with the situation at Tahrir square, then and now. Since the curfew has been put in place in the country it's a very eerie place to be since the revolution. During the day, the square is filled again with Egyptians but this time, they go about their daily business, charred buildings and only a few banners remain as remnants of the uprising that took place weeks prior.
DSLRs are THE tool for documentary film making, as demonstrated here, beautifully.
Thank you for the movie
Just a question: werw did you find this wonderful music?
Thanks
Very high quality royalty free music
I'm gonna watch this a few more times, but I'm seeing something here that may cause misunderstanding, most of your interviews are with AUC students, I don't think the revolutuion was born out of the AUC or it's students, this was a youth movement. your first young AUC student went out on the 28th, things kicked off a bit earlier on the 25th, you may know that on the day things got pretty nasty when the government let it's thugs on the square during and after the "Camel" incident, a band of determined young men saved the square from being over run, things could have ended there had it not been for them, and I don't think they were from the AUC. I just wanted to point out that your film may intentionally or not elude to that.
all the best
I really wish I had longer in country to interview more people. Although it isn't a great excuse, I had such a tight time schedule in Egypt that I couldn't physically get around everybody.
However I have to agree with Amjad. AUC tuition fees can be up to $13,000 per semester. Tomorrow in Tahrir factory workers and unions will march to try and raise the minimum wage from $70 per month. Corruption of the old regime landed the country's resources and money in the hands of an elite few and their children went to the AUC.
Sorry to bring up the point again.
Love the film and love the shots of the Sufi's in Hussein. Very atmospheric.
Overall I think the music pushes the pace to much, really gets in the way. The subtitles are a bit of an insult to the audience too, every subject is perfectly understandable.
Wonderful looking film otherwise!
Subtitles render your work more accessible, and respectful for those with limited capabilities.
Thank you for posting.
About the work you done, the only thing I think is not well performed are some audio recording in the interviews. The sound is somewhat too stereo-spaced, lacks of presence, and reflections are clearly audible, disturbing a little the intelleggibility of the speech. It seems that microphone is too far from the speaker.
That apart, great work! Photography, story, and editing is really well done for my taste.
yet, in addition to all your interviewees being affiliated with auc, i found your stereotypical introduction so off-putting that it was hard for me to take the rest of the film seriously. egypt remained unchanged for millennia and then "suddenly" exploded on january 25? given your feel for some of the complexities in egypt now, i am shocked that your intro is so out of touch with any notion of reality.
and although i found it slightly odd, especially in the overall context of the film and in juxtaposition to the auc interviews, i did enjoy your sufi footage...
cheers!
thanks a lot
images look amazing ...did you do much colour corection? the blacks look superb
did you use a steadycam or just tripod ?
