It's Your Ride
9 months ago
Directed by Daniel Leeb of Cinecycle Productions.
This short film features Alfred Bobe Jr. and Fatimah Durkee. The film spins a visual ballad between the two cyclists experiencing the city in their own unique ways. Both cyclists are city dwellers who amidst the chaos of the concrete jungle have created a private and peaceful psychological space as they traverse the streets. They are both alone and yet they are both very much aware of each others presence. The film speaks to the harmony with one's environment that can be found while riding a bicycle in a city and the synchronistic connection we can have with those we have not even met. The short was commissioned by Hutchinson tires.

if i ever was gonna make a bike flick it would be just like that.
what was that shot on?
RED?
looks amazing.
great work. great angles. just straight fresh.
5D mark dos?
there's a shot between 2 buses (looks too tight for a car to ride along)?
The editing really made it I think.
I loved the variable speed/cut with beat.
Thank you for posting this!

Thanks! Very good video. :)
p.s. im not a music composer anyway.
Lach went off the assumption that the music did not exist, and I simply followed his knowledge (however flawed). You may have been annoyed at our rather long convo or perhaps my seemingly blunt manner; petty, compared to Lach's mistakes and lessons he must learn in life about not asking in a douchey way.
Thus, please learn to analyze instead of merely skimming the comments. Maybe you too won't be such an angry little gremlin if you could learn to ask nicely :)
P.S. Thanks Cine for being so magnanimous with your work.
Everything was great!
Congratulations for an amazing video.
P.S. is the Affinity shop in the beginning the affinity shop in Boston that makes all those pursuits?
