A Music Video I Shot for the Headhunters


Check out this video of "The Headhunters" on YouTube: This was my first attempt at shooting concert footage. The Lighting there sucked. While it sort of worked for those in the bar, for filming theere was too little illumination. It forced me to shoot at a higher ISO than I would have liked, and to shoot wide open. I'm going back again and bringing my own lights. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M-nMcVbkJBc&feature=youtube_gdata_player

This is the song that will play during the "Stripping scene," (relax, there is no nudity)  
I'm happy to announce Victoria Landcaster was nice enough to add some vocals  throughout the song but this is prior to me going back into to ProTools and adding her contribution.  That said it's enough to give you an Idea.

    This is that "Glimmer" in Natalia's eyes I was talking about on Sunday which literally made my day.

    Lane J Lubell Begins New Film Project

    Project Shoeshine.
    
    
    Lane J Lubell
     
    The script is written and we are just a week away from beginning filming. This is a whimsical comedy populated by a charming, but eccentric cast of actors reacting to events that makes perfect sense to them. 

    I am pleased and excited that Natalia grudzien (Robin and Her Wolf) has agreed to take the leading role of "Summer."

    The cast includes a number of trusted friends, and talented actors who have come to my aid in past projects. As a high school film-maker with no budget to speak of; clearly no one is giving their time for financial gain; so I am very grateful for their friendship and continued support.





    Starring 

    Summer     Natalia grudzien

    Vince          Jack Marrinson  

    Max             Cullen Welch

    Luna            Hope Clark

    2012 Chicagoland High School Film Festival

    "Yay! "Robin and Her Wolf"  was officially accepted as a finalist to the Chicagoland High School Film Festival. The film will be shown along with several other works by fellow student filmmakers from all accross Chicago and suburbs. I was fortunate to have been selected last year as well; and I must say I was impressed by the quality of films produced by each of the finalists.  
    To the cast  and all thouse that helped make Robin & her Wolf come together, 'Congrats guys! Its because of you all that this movie is a success"
    The Chicagoland High School Film Festival, gives high School students an unique opportunity to enter and show the films they have worked so hard to create. True there are Children’s film festivals, but since those events are geared toward films who’s language and content are appropriate to be viewed by young children, this event allows young film makers to exhibit works that are relevant to the issues and interests of teen filmmakers.
