This short movie is based on the story "the glove" from Friedrich Schiller and was directed by Henning Backhaus, who also made the nice piano music. It was shot on 16mm Kodak-stock Vision2 200T.

About the film:
Imagine a winter day, when you are together with the boy you like. Then, another girl comes to spoil your enjoyment of this precious moment. The acting based on delicate gestures well expresses the fragility of the youth and arouse nostalgia.

    beautiful little film. the piano music was perfect.

    i was amused to see "sh*t" translated into "f*ck"... hahaha. i guess this might be the correct translation, given the circumstances.

    Nice camera work, the use of film really does this piece justice.
    The translation, looses a little of the original youth speak though still good.
    One of the few Austrian films I easily understood. I have a little trouble with the Austrian dialect, but not here well done.

    wow, nice cinematography!! I would like to know the shooting details!! Crane, etc?? :p

    Indeed, 16mm and 35mm are incomparable!!! :)
  • Bewegtbildarbeiter 2 years ago
    Hi Mario, as I said it was filmed on S-16 Kodak stock with an ARRI SR3 and Zeiss HS lenses without additional light on two weekends (about 3 and a half days). The crane was from ABC Products with a length of 9 metres and we used the gear head Pele from the same house. If you have a look at my portrait photos, you'll find a picture of the crane also.

    This is what the art of film is about. This was a wonderful project that was based on story and was made with talent and skill. I am so tired of seeing things based on shallow concepts and nothing more than the latest tech toys.

    After working on commercials for the last 10 years, this reminds me of why I went to film school.

    Thank You.
  • Bewegtbildarbeiter 2 years ago
    Haven't shot a short since two years now and sometimes feel similar. Where did you study, hope I'm allowed to ask.

  • Bewegtbildarbeiter 1 year ago
    Hi and thanks for the compliment.
    We could use an ARRI SR3 for the movie, the best (and only one) of the Filmacademy in Vienna. It was colour corrected in a night session on an AVID Nitris.

    hello great piece of work !!! amazing stuff. Film is really so different from video. I was wondering how did you transfer the film to video? is it a diy ? thanks
  • Bewegtbildarbeiter 1 year ago
    No, I don't think it's possible to do it by yourself. There's a company in Vienna that processes the Celluloid and transfers it to Video afterwards. That's the moment when you see the images for the first time. That's always a very thrilling time :o)

    Gut gemacht! Mag eigentlich alle deiner Videos! Wenn ich das nur auch könnte...
    ...aber das kommt schon noch...erst mal, wie schon auf deinem Blog geschrieben, die neue Kamera. Aber die darf leider acuh nicht zu viel kosten...naja, man kann eben nicht alles haben :( Weiter so!!!
  • Bewegtbildarbeiter 1 year ago
    Hi Micha, Canon HV20 ist super für relativ wenig Geld. Schau mal hier auf Vimeo. Gibt's ne Menge Beispiele.
  • Micha Kellenberger 1 year ago
    Danke für den Tipp. Schaut einfach nicht so gut aus die Cam, aber was solls...
    ...für wenig Geld kann man nicht alles haben...
  • Micha Kellenberger 1 year ago
    Hi
    Sorry, dass ich dich mit Fragen löchere :P
    Hätte gerade ein gutes Angebot für ne Canon HG10. Was hältst du davon? Ich weiss ist ein HDD Camcorder, doch gibt es da auch Qualitative Abstriche oder hat man nur das problem mit der vollen Platte? ;-)

    I wish there was more film-sourced material on vimeo. All the Magic Bullet in the world can't make something look as awesome as that did (not knocking it, but it sure doesn't look like this).

    Very, very well done.
  • Bewegtbildarbeiter 1 year ago
    Thanks Adrian. Yes you're right. Film is still much better than most video cameras, but I'm surprised how fast the video technique has been developed for the last years and I think, Phillip Blooms videos are amazing and look great too.
