What’s A Nice Girl Like You Doing In A Place Like This
For those of us who hadn’t seen this before, and are fans of the man’s work, this is treat, and an insight into the beginnings of his visual inventiveness. Ladies, gentlemen, and film nerds, this is an early film by the one and only Martin Scorsese.
The River
Maria just wants to get to the river. Featuring Lauren Ambrose, with a cameo by Adam Driver and a voice cameo by Michael C. Hall, this is a short film with pedigree, and style.

The Sunday Times – Icons
This is such a good example of the one-take film.
And because the awesomeness cannot simply be limited to the film itself, here is how they shot the film. Very, very cool!
The Balloon Highline
Daredevilry doesn’t get that much more daring or devilish than this. Folks who are afraid of heights should know that this could feel like your worst dreams coming true.
Steady Chicken
You’ve got to love a clever advertisement. And this is a clever, and funny, ad.
Ignite
Very cool motion graphics to highlight a noble-seeming endeavour.
The Gap
This is just excellent advice for people starting out in a creative enterprise. And this is a very well made film based on the audio sample.

As this video masterfully illustrates, what you reap is production will be sown (big time) in post.
So, in the interest of good filmmaking, let’s commit to doing things right from now on.
