The Lesser Giants – Music Video Shoot – Day 5 (Final Day)

14 Saturday Oct 2017

And after today’s work, we’ve officially concluded filming for the next music video for The Lesser Giants.
Spread over the course of the last month or so, we’ve spent a total of five days filming in and outside the Melbourne outer east. From factory estates, creepy forests and even a garage, we have accomplished a very satisfying collection of images which, over the next couple of weeks, we will craft into a piece of visual and audible entertainment.
We can’t thank enough Duncan, Zoltan and Daniel for all of the effort that they have put into this project.

While we all eagerly anticipate the release of this new video, revisit the band’s first video, Little Rock Family, from their recent EP, B.E.A.R.

The Lesser Giants – Music Video Shoot – Day 4

A couple of weeks ago, we headed up to Redwood Forest in Warburton to begin the third day of filming for the latest music video for The Lesser Giants that we’ve been whittling away at over the last short while. Due to unforeseen equipment troubles, we had to cut the night short. That being said though, we did still manage to get a hand full of shots.

Come last night, we trekked out once again for what we knew was going to be a long night. Because it’s daylight savings time here in Victoria at the moment, nightfall didn’t come until around 8pm. Regardless, we got stuck into it, and by 5am, the team were more than ready to head home for bed. Thankfully, we’ve now wrapped everything that involves the band, leaving us only a handful of shots still to get outside of that.
As tiring as last night was, I am so happy to know that our efforts have not gone unrewarded. The weather behaved, the moon was bright, all equipment worked without a hiccup. Reviewing the images today is a reminder for why we choose to be filmmakers. Sure, filmmaking is a hungry beast, but the feeling you get after finally starting to piece everything together, makes up for all of what was lost to make it.

So for now, here’s a hint of what’s to come…

Stay tuned for more updates soon!Bear Box

My Imaginary Friend – Update

16 Saturday Sep 2017

Posted by Skybird Entertainment in My Imaginary Friend, Short Film, Skybird Entertainment

≈ Leave a comment

Well, this is a long overdue update to our long gestating short film, My Imaginary Friend.
It’s somewhat scary to know that we first begun filming for this production back in August of 2015! That’s two years already…
The reality is though, Skybird Entertainment is an independent venture, consisting of just two people, Dean Woodward and myself, Chris McKee. As is the case for many independent filmmakers, we all have unrelated day jobs, families, relationships and a whole assortment of other commitments and obstacles in our lives, so until the day comes that we can turn this hobby into a career, it often finds itself taking a reluctant back seat. This short film in particular, a highly ambitious project, requires even more time than usual.
That being said, however, I’m very pleased to say that we have completed our lead character’s dialogue sessions.
Sporadically over the last few weeks, we have had the amazing Kayla record her lines for the film. Even though she first performed them over two years ago, she still manged to nail every line. We are not just proud, but very lucky to have such a capable little artist working with us on this project. DSC_0565[462]
From here on, we are hopeful that we finally have this project back on track after a long period of hibernation. Over the journey, we have some very talented and all-round great people contribute to this film. Such as Rebecca Dorothy Valastro, Jennifer Angsiting, Vincent Kos and Davis Angsiting.
We still have one small, but significant, role to fill, but we hope to announce that very soon.

As for now, please continue with your support and we will do everything we can to bring you further updates in the not-too-distant future.

Cheers and thank you!

I might be a little late with the updates, one week in fact, but we recently got through the second day of filming with the guys from The Lesser Giants.
The follow up video to their first video, Little Rock Family, is shaping up to be a cracker. These guys are nothing but professional on set and are bringing a fun but earnest performance to their on screen characters.
We’re really looking forward to what Day 3 brings in the next week.
Stay tuned!2017-09-16-16h28m02s908

James Cameron, Red Cameras and Glasses Free 3D

Avatar, James Cameron, Red

So, the Red Camera Company has just announced that it is releasing a smart phone with a holographic screen that is capable of displaying glasses free 3D, as well as a wealth of other interesting formats and features.

James Cameron, famed writer, director and technology enthusiast, has recently spoken about how he plans to have his upcoming Avatar sequels available in glasses free 3D upon their release in theatres.

A quick google search appears to show that James Cameron is planning on using Red cameras to film his Avatar sequels…

Coincidence? I’m guessing not. It certainly does raise more questions though. For starters, how do you take the technology inside a 5 inch smart phone and blow it up to over 50 feet?

We have had an absolute ball today…

We’ve spent the day filming a music video for an amazing song by an incredible Melbourne band called ‘The Lesser Giants’. It was a busy day. A very busy day, as a matter of fact. But everyone worked super hard on this video and we couldn’t be happier with how things played out.

We’ll be cutting this thing together over the next couple of weeks, but we’re sure that you’ll enjoy this rocking new track.
We can’t wait for you all to get your ears around this.

Be sure to show the guys your support and make sure to ‘like’ the guys’ facebook page for upcoming shows and other news: The Lesser Giants – Facebook
