Frost – Student Short Film

As more snow hits the northeast and power outages occur, one man’s relationship hangs in the balance, but a little snow won’t stop him. He’s going to make the drive and try to win her back.

Frost is my student short film that has spanned 3+ months of production. The film is my final thesis project for my Digital Cinematography Bachelor’s of Science (DCBS) degree from Full Sail University. I will be graduating with my degree after 3 years, in June of this year, 2015. I hope you all enjoy the movie!

Frost – Student Thesis Trailer

Can inclement weather and a long distance actually save a breaking relationship?

Frost is my student short film and my final thesis project for my Digital Cinematography degree at Full Sail University. The full short film, “Frost” will be out in the coming months on this same channel, so stay tuned.

Here's a quick look at one of the setups used a lot when inside getting dialogue. We had been using the Sony FS100 for 95% of the shoot and the SmallHD AC7 Monitor. We rented the Glidecam HD4000 for the moving shots as well and it was an absolute pleasure to use!

Special thanks to my cast, you all have been wonderful with your hours of hard work helping me make this project a reality. Also thanks to Montage Mountain in Scranton, PA for your generosity in supporting me with access to your awesome ski resort! Check them out in Scranton, PA or at montagemountainresorts.com

Nobody tells this to beginners.

Whether you work in film, photography, graphic design, art, culinary, or any form of art, you make things. You make thins due to your taste, and what you find awe-inspiring. This is what helps you form your style, that thing that gives you that edge, that thing that you do that makes everything you do, yours. For years, we will all make things that we find subpar. We need to learn the tools and techniques that will allow us to create things only we can dream up. This picture looks horrid. This painting sucks. My demo reel will never be good enough. It is something all artists go through and if you really love your art, you fight through it. You will go to no end to make everything that you do yours, and I too wish to make everything I do essentially, totally, and unequivocally mine.
