Episode Three: 52 - Next Episode and the Future


Although the third episode of Listen To The City Breathe took much longer than I had originally planned, it finally came out in a way that I was happy with. It was delayed by a month of inaction, but it was also delayed by my misunderstanding of what certain details would entail. After this experience, I have a much better understanding of elements of production that I had never included before, including animation, more specialized titles, and more specialized music. I also learned a lot more about cinematography, and color correction. I think that all of this will only help me become a better filmmaker in the future, and I look forward to taking these new skills with me into future projects, and future episodes of Listen To The City Breathe!

Episode Three: 51 - Follow up shooting


The film was almost completed, but I knew that I wanted a few more shots of Toshi in the third episode of Listen To The City Breathe. He had just returned to New York City from a dance tour in Japan, and as busy as he is, I knew that I had to reach out to him in before I missed him again. So, following my own stand-ins (which I discussed before) of what I wanted on the screen, I still wanted several shots of Toshi. This included him dancing onto the subway train (as the finale for the whole film), me and Toshi talking, and him meditating.

One thing that I really liked about these shots is that they were the most recent shots for the whole film, and they were taken after I had learned a lot more about photography, and cinematography. I think these are the best shots of the whole film, and so I am happy that at the last minute, I decided to go and get some extra shots that I believed the film needed.
