How did you go about getting it on TV?? What will the presentation be - will there be other shorts, too?

Tell the story!

:)

Details! :)

[Mathias]

Congratiolations to that! I will definatly watch! Good job getting them to show it! Thats what I love about SVT1/2 :)

[dawe]

thanks all.

I will put it out on the net somewhere when all is over and they don't want it on any festivals no more:) In a year or so maybe.
actually if you live in London you can see it because it´s showed in a small festival there,http://www.renderyard.com it will be screened throughout October at escape gallery.
it will also part in other festivals in Germany www.filmfest-braunschweig.de ad in Norway http://wt-festivalen.no and in a dance film festival in Australia filmflicks other festivals may come in short there is a lot of festivals and I don't remember them all.
about getting it in to TV; It wasn´t that hard. I found a good name of a sales person and dent it to him. I may have been lucky though. and Swedish TV is good at showing non-commercial stuff

Mathias. Good thing you will see it, will be nice to hear your thoughts on it.

best regards
Daniel

oh I forgot. Here is the trailer for renderyard: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EFxLtHskpiE my thing is in the end:)

I like the final work on it! Very nice coreography. The only thing that was kind of weak was the spinning endposition of the chairs, thought it feelt abit to unnatural or to perfect movement in that. Maybe also the fact that i expected all the chairs to just fall down on the floor when it ended had something to do that I felt that way about the ending aswell :P
However, I really like the whole thing, the ending was the only part of the short that I had any negative feelings from. I like the whole concept with the chairs and the movement to the music felt spot on. Good job on it! Are you going to follow this one up with another similar peice? By the way, congrats to getting it showed at Uppsala! Are you going to visit the festival also?

[dawe]

Mathias. glad you liked it part from the ending :) There is always things that could have been done better and the ending was maybe not the best solution, but with a more dramatic end I felt I had to bring in some more sound, and I didn´t want to so.
With this in hand, I really had to finish this project this spring and the work load by a 3 min short is so much more than I could imagine! most of the time its decisions that take your time. so next time I will bring in some more people. so much easier to decide and to be certain of things when you´r two or even three

Also. I have to say that what really bothered me aboute the film on TV was the bad quality:( So I have to call them to morrow and see what´s wrong. cus if I play it here on the same tv I get a lot better image. itfelot like it was all blured. well hope they can fix it to next time.

[Mathias]

No, sorry, I live in Skåne. I have long wanted to go up there during the festival and have relatives living very close, but due to the schedule at univeristy I cant manage to get away this time either it seems. Aiming at next year instead.

Didnt mean to sound like a jerk, so no need to say sorry, just thought it was funny to see basically the same message twice but I can understand your state of euphoria overthere ;)
