Making 3 minutes documentary film from 10 hours footage from 6 months of film production. As mentioned above, the production of this piece took 6 months, resulting in 10 hours worth of footage, which then had to be cut down to three minutes for the finished piece. For many aspiring editors, this would be nerve-wracking. How do you take that much footage, cut away more than 99% of it, and be assured that what you're left with is as good as it can possibly be? Will Hammond, Contra's editor, describes his process for doing exactly that. From "How to Cut 10 Hours of Footage Down to a Finely-Tuned 3 Minute Film" Click here to read the article .

This is Who Won at the 2017 LA Film Festival by MATT WARREN Well, that was fast! Like all good times, the 2017 LA Film Festival has seemingly come and (very nearly) gone faster than seems humanly plausible. Could it really be that—as of this time next week—the Festival Lounge will be no more, reduced to a simple patch of green grass at the foot of business-as-usual Culver Studios? Or that the ArcLight will be suddenly vacated of Festival fare, replaced by the deafening whooshes and booms of summer movie season? But not quite yet—there are prizes to be given out first. Handed out June 22 at a mid-morning brunch on the Festival Lawn hosted by LA Film Festival Director Jennifer Cochis, the awards brunch celebrated jury prize honorees from the Festival’s U.S. Fiction, World Fiction, Documentary, Nightfall and LA Muse categories. Audience Awards were also presented for Fiction Feature, Documentary Feature, Short Film and Web Series.

Art appreciation shows how much intellectual education a person has. And the more you appreciate art, the more you will appreciate the beauty of life. The appreciation of art is also the appreciation of humanity and the society. No wonder the #Chinese and the #Japanese are now the leading countries for art appreciation and art collection in the world. Because, art appreciates with time and does not lose its value. But even the most expensive cars will later be abandoned in the garage or junkyard as they are replaced by the newest brands of cars in town. That is why the most educated people spend millions of dollars to buy the most valuable paintings, drawings, mixed media works and sculptures at art auctions and exhibitions.
