Acting Reference #12

This clip from The Frighteners has some really nice finger movements. Fingers are a great place to add detail and polish to a shot.

11 Second Club WIP

I've deecided to enter this months 11 second club contest. Here's a wip, hopefully I'll have time to finish it.

Movie Stills #2

Movie Stills #1

I've been downloading a lot of still images from movies, it's great reference for character composition, poses, and conveying emotion in a single image.

Confusion

Acting Reference #11

Leo gave an excellent performance in The Aviator and I really like this shot for the head accent at the end. There's also some really nice shoulder movement going on as well. You don't always have to use your hands to make gestures, sometimes using only the head can be more interesting.
