A bit early for my weekend challenge, but I wanted it give you a few more days on this. The last one was a great success<\/a> and I would love to see even better films as I want to add a new element to this challenge. Sound. I want sync baby!<\/p>\n

Find someone, anyone and do a character study of them. Last time you did a study of an inanimate object. This time make a person but I want to hear from them, learn something about them. A great way of practicing your dual system sound or even in camera sound…<\/p>\n

Here are the rules: It has to specifically shot for this challenge and say so in the credits at end. If it’s old where is the challenge in that? Secondly, it MUST have sync, not voiceover…sync. I can have voiceover but there must be some sync sound of the character speaking. Thirdly, one character per film only!<\/p>\n

Length is totally up to you, but don’t let the video overstay it’s welcome is all I can say!<\/p>\n

You have until next Sunday to do this, get it uploaded by 2359 Pacific USA time Sunday. Below is a great example of one of the entrants. Great visuals and great sound. PLEASE do not forget about how important sound is. People will forgive average or even bad images if the sound is clear and crisp. Shoot the most beautiful footage but if we cannot hear the person clearly we will stop watching!<\/p>\n

Good luck to all!<\/p>\n
