This is what Steve McCurry said about taking his photograph Afghan Girl: Start thinking about the production requirements behind each image and then you will be wearing a producer’s hat. Additionally, two clear examples of different production styles. The second one is a portrait by photographer Mario Testino, which was taken for the 10th Anniversary Special Issue of Vogue China.Īpparently, two portraits of similar composition and outstanding quality. The first one is Afghan Girl, a 1984 photograph by the journalist Steve McCurry, which became a world-famous cover of National Geographic in 1985. The test is based on the comparison of these two images – It is an exercise we have ideated to set the grounds of each film, and to take an opportunity to reflect on the main features of our filmmaking style. We like to start each new project with the Mario Testino meets National Geographic test. In this blog post I would like to share a “test” we have developed at MIND THE FILM. But what about the choices we take before then? How do we really start shaping the way in which we are going to tell a story? Sure, your choice of camera and lenses will say a lot about how you shoot (and this is something we will talk about in another post). Creative choices are multiple from the very beginning of the filmmaking process.

A lot.īut I’m a single mom trying to move on with my life, and he’s running that ranch single-handedly while taking care of his elderly father. He makes a girl sweat just looking at him. And who wouldn’t appreciate those strong hands, that massive chest, and the way he fills out a pair of Levis? Yes, I’ve had a secret crush on him since we were seventeen. Sure, he’s a hot cowboy who left Wall Street behind to take over his family’s ranch. That’s all Beckett Weaver and I have ever been. (“Political activity must truly be conducted at the service of the human person, with respect for creation and for the common good.” Okay. On soul-singeing, narrative-consuming toxic tweet days, I break the glass and go to as the Mia Wallace, adrenaline-shot-to-the-heart antidote. This can take the form of viewing random episodes of The West Wing, revisiting the writings of the Dalai Lama or Martin Luther King, or, in dire emergencies, mainlining Stevie Wonder. It has become my habit, when the loopy cascade of previously unthinkable political headlines emanating mostly but not exclusively from Washington starts to harsh my naturally sunny disposition, to score a fix of therapeutic counter-programming. At a time when toxic tweets consume so much of our political bandwidth and abuse of power seems rampant, Jean Vanier is an oasis of sane humanity. Agent: Barbara Poelle, Irene Goodman Literary. Though falling short of the boldly bizarro plot and quirky characters of He Started It, this thriller nonetheless offers darkly comic amusement and ample surprises from its cast of unabashedly amoral schemers.

Early in his training, he connects with Thessylia, a short-eared owl, who becomes his closest companion. His first lesson was the understanding that necromancy deals with both life and death, and he can use that power to destroy undead rather than creating them.

As we move toward Dexter’s season finale, we caught up with Stiles to discuss Lumen Pierce in all her injured, demented, calculating glory. When we first saw her face, soot-covered and peering out like a Bedlam inmate from a tiny window of a locked door in the house of Dexter’s latest kill, Julia Stiles was almost unrecognizable. |
