Exit - A Benjamin Crum Film

Here is the newest film from BC Online and Director Benjamin Crum (me). It's more of a "let's test the new camera" than anything else. Enjoy.

pretty cool, and a nice evocative choice of music.

maybe a triffle long, but it's hard to find a good radiohead song that's short and that perfect for the materiel (hail to the thief is one of the great albums, btw)

what kind of a camara is it? i mean not "it's mini dv" but the model number and stuff?

i know thats not from hail to the thief, i just wanted to mention that it's a good album

Once again, Mr. Crum, an excellent film. Not that we could expect anything less from BConline and the studios that have brought us such box office smashes such as... and... and also...
I like the jumping scene, it conveys perfecly the "turmoil and inner struggle that rips a man to shreds". There is one part I still have not yet figured out though. What makes the splash? Is it Nate or a large rock? Did he really jump in with the water as cold as it is? And, if so, how did he come out of the water without getting wet.
Or, is the jump scene really the imagination of the man and the camera is allowed to show his thoughts?
One may never know.

Nathan, I think that camera is a Canon ZR300 mini DV. It has some image stabilizer I think, but it's not Canon's high end stabilization system.

and yes... Hail to the Thief is awesome (my favorite RH album), that track is off of OK Computer though (also a good album) - I've got an idea for a Radiohead series of films, but that one will wait a while.

I'd have to say that you got the best acting yet seen in any Crum feature, save only by the stellar performance of that kid who always died in those T.M.I.G. flicks
