By Houston RaefErin and Greg had such a positive attitude towards the rain on their wedding day. After packing up all of my equipment, the rain picked back up and gave me the urge to get creative. I set up a light outside (covered with a plastic bag), went back inside and told them to "trust me". A few months later when I delivered the film, Erin wrote in her review: "One of my favorite moments from the wedding was when Houston pulled us aside and told us an idea he had - to shoot us slow dancing in the rain. The end product of his idea is something we will cherish forever. Taking time to soak (literally) everything in, to slow down, and dance in the storm with my husband was truly magic and defined the evening for us."

By James WightmanThis film was made as part of a weekly community film 'game' I participate in. The rules for the films made that week were that it had to be shot on a phone, and could only include one cut. I came up with an idea to have what appeared to be several cuts, but weren't. We filmed one hour and a half long single take across several locations on a phone. Each performance had to be good on the first try or we'd have to start over. I then speedramped the black parts in between the scenes. It was an insane exhilarating experience trying to pull it off and it worked out.
By James WightmanI'd wanted to try and recreate the mirror scene from the movie 'Contact' for years and finally found a week where it made sense to try it. It took way more work than I imagined but turned out really neat.
By James WightmanI made this for a local community film challenge I take part in weekly. The rules for films made that week were that it must include slow motion and you had two days to do it. This one has heavy inspiration from two scenes in the movie Hot Rod, one of my all time favorite comedies.
By James WightmanAbout the couple: This is a story of paths crossing, from Guatemala to Spain. When you have two people who are passionate, considerate and loving, it's a moment that you won't forget when you see them decide to take the journey together and not apart. About the film: While creating the film, we had the privilege of recording their proposal in Lago Atitlan in Guatemala, as well as the wedding and reception. So having access to these moments really opened up the edit to a non-traditional story. We wanted this wedding film to show the interconnected stories that a wedding can have. We also wanted the music to complement the location as it’s near an active volcano. We also graded the film with FilmConvert to breathe life into the footage.

Each person brought their talents and we all co-created the three day celebration together. No rehearsals, just trust, love, and permission to show up and be fully present.

By AlexOur friend Jes is a talented photographer who happens to be a beekeeper on her spare time. She asked us if we wanted to come and film her bees. We then decided to turn this into a little doco. This was originally prompted by the fact that bees were recently declared the most important living beings on this planet. Thus was filmed in the Blue Mountains, close to Sydney, Australia.

By Fred CavenderThis short movie was made in 6 years. It contains video diary material combined with a fictional story with philosophical thoughts about life and who we are. It tells a story about us Finns and how our ancestors migrated from all around the world, making us as a nation kind of rootless.

By Fred CavenderThis is my first music video that i direct/produce. In our region, there is little support for local artists to produce good quality music video. So i decided to form collaborations within a small budget of 300$ to make something that stand outs as an Arabic Rap music video. I used three different moods, the neon, the natural, and the studio, to reflect the inner and the outer of the artist.

By manuelMy personal interpretation of this beautiful song. You can try to forget me but I won't let you easily. I'm floating out in the water, washed out to sea. Drifting away with time you'll regret you conceived it. Clean up the dead you leave behind. Just like insects. Clean up the dead you leave behind.

By manuelThe Nongovernmental Organization “ZipZap: Inspiring kids for life” offeres kids a new home, a meaning and a place to live and learn. For many kids this means the way from the barracks to the big stages. However, the over twothousand kids and youngsters stem from different social strata and are affected from different pasts. In ZipZap they are all equal and have same chance to enter the circus family. This was the case for Aviwe, who came to the circus school as a youngster and returned home after years, saying “Now I am feeling like I am going into the right direction. ZipZap changed my life”.
By Marian Hirschfeld«QUI REGNA AMORE» Giosuè Carducci Ove sei? de’ sereni occhi ridenti A chi tempri il bel raggio, o donna mia? E l’intima del cor tuo melodia A chi armonizzi ne’ soavi accenti? Siedi tra l’erbe e i fiori e a’ freschi venti Dài la dolce e pensosa alma in balía? O le membra concesso hai de la pia Onda a gli amplessi di vigor frementi? Oh, dovunque tu sei, voluttuosa Se l’aura o l’onda con mormorio lento Ti sfiora il viso o a’ bianchi omeri posa, È l’amor mio che in ogni sentimento Vive e ti cerca in ogni bella cosa E ti cinge d’eterno abbracciamento.

By Fred CavenderThese days, ‘expect more’ is how Pavel Khvaleev believes audiences should approach electronic music. And he’s spent the last dozen years raising those expectations. Composer, filmmaker, producer and a polymath-like range of other skills have resulted in the uniting of some of electronic music’s most striking sounds & images. On the surface, a spectacle for eye and ear, underneath it’s a swirling melange of deeper meaning, channelled through the avant-garde, meditative, metaphysical & psychological.

I traveled to the 'Land of Ice and Fire' in October 2017. With a concept in mind of what I wanted to create I teamed up with Benni, Markus and Johannes of Wildboar 3D Studio. Luckily the guys shared my vision so we worked on this passion project together.
By Jacco KlieschThis is a film about an inspirational young man. Johnny Botton has faced challenges that many could not even contemplate. His journey through foster care, living with cerebral palsy and overcoming the prejudices that come with these, have made Johnny a role model and example to many. Johnny used to visit our family on respite for holidays. It was always obvious that his upbeat, compassionate and positive outlook on life was going to guide serve him well. My own children and foster children regard Johnny as a surrogate brother, and it was inevitable that I would do a film about Johnny at some point.

By Bjorn TobiassonA trailer for Stories from Silk Island. A short distance from the frenetic capital city of Cambodia, Koh Dach - or Silk Island - is its own world of farmers and floodplains; silk weavers and shortfall. It is here that EmbraceAbility has made its home, providing services aimed at empowering children with disabilities and their families to lift themselves from poverty, promoting their dignity and independence so that they may participate fully in their communities. Stories of Note presents Stories from Silk Island, a series of films that looks candidly into the eyes of Koh Dach children and into the minds of their parents, giving unique insight into a life unlike ours, and a journey with EmbraceAbility towards equality and inclusivity.
By Caleb YuleA short 3-min doco about the gifted custom moped & bike builders Holy Spokes and their wild bunch of motor heads. I challenged myself to create a documentary without quotes, trying to captures the essence of what makes these motor heads tick without words. During the shoot it struck me that their way of life somehow resembles the 4 stages of life in Hinduism, hence the expression Mopedism in the title. Btw: The bylines of the chapter titles are in slangy Swiss German, translating the English main titles with a slight irony - unfortunately this cannot be adequately translated into English without getting lost in translation.
By Yves ScagliolaThe Recovery Mission is a 3-piece instrumental prog-rock band from El Paso, TX. Over the course of the band's 15-year life-span, not once did they ever put out a music video. We here at Subharmonic City Productions got together with the band to finally break this streak. This video was made specifically for the FilmConvert Short Film Competition. The video was originally going to be in black & white, but seeing how amazing Film Convert made the color footage look, there are now 2 versions.
