Jeremy Krakoski.
Perhaps you've heard the name.
Perhaps not.
Jeremy Krakoski is a Christian friend of mine who has created a few films, the best two being Armed Conflict and No Greater Love.
Well, I go to his forum from time to time, thus I'm on his newsletter. The other day, I recieved a pleasant update informing me that his best short, Armed Conflict, had won the 2004 Videomaker(r) competition award for "Best Young Filmmaker."
This Videomaker competition has recieved outstanding reviews from companies such as Sony and Panasonic, and thus Jeremy is now somewhat of a famous person.
His film will be shown in a theater in California to an audience of 200 or more, and then will be placed on a very popular website.
Anyway, I guess by now that you want to see his movie.
Well, I recommend that you do. It's available in Quicktime and DivX. If you don't know what DivX is, then I recommend that you download the quicktime format.
The film is available here.
If you wish to watch it in DivX, select and download the codec here.
Of course, you can just browse around his site if you'd like, and I do recommend it.
The neat thing about Armed Conflict, is that Jeremy did the music himself as well. Good music.
I was impressed. Of course, it does have it's certain amount of cheesyishness to it, but it is pretty good as far as no-budget films go.
Seriously, it's far better than anything David and I have done.
AND, Jeremy is now planning on creating more Christian films, now that he's got a little publicity. The film "No Greater Love" was an example of a film he created in 60 hours. That's very fast for a film of that quality.
BUT, what I started the thread for, is that I hope all of you will drop over to his forums (even if you only post once) and congratulate Jeremy on his accomplishment.
A videomaker magazine award is no small thing!
So, click here to go to the congratulations thread.
But, in other news, Jennifer has sent me some pictures!!
This is truly awesome! Wonderful! Astounding! And More!! For only 39.95 you can... you can... ah the heck with it.
Whatever.
Here are the pictures, and Jennifer's caption on each one:
So I was going through our files and found the cleaning up/fixing up/moving in pictures!
First we have Derrillynn and her friend performing a very strange dance...ummm I'm not sure I want to know!
Yes, you are seeing correctly. I am mopping the ceiling! Hey, it's a strange world!
WOW! Look at the strength of these guys. Not everyone can throw a bed like that!
You know, eventually the fumes get to you...
...they make you do strange things to yourself!
And finally we have Dad, fishing in the black lagoon! I think we went on a diet that night...
- Jennifer Langen.
Lo and behold, we have had our entertainment for the day.
Thank you Jennifer!
Ok. So we need yet ANOTHER freaky SINGING BALD MAN to cap off the day.
This was an entry in the 48 hour film festival (r or tm, not sure which) and was an award winner.
I have to admit, I liked Jeremy's work better, but then again, this is a SINGING BALD MAN.
A singing SCIENTIFIC bald man in fact.
Yeah. This movie stinks so bad, it's awesome. Not to mention, he made the ENTIRE THING, including writing the music, filming, singing, editing, ADR, etc, in 48 hours. No sleeping involved. The speed of the project is incredible, considering the results.
Watch it here, WMV.
Anyway, that's about it for now. Kelly took a whole TON of pictures of the calf, but I don't know where they are right now. I'll get 'em to ya later.
Have fun!
John.
