lovempls Posted November 5, 2009 Share Posted November 5, 2009 Hi! For those of you who don't know me, my name is Clare. I'm a Los Angeles MFCer, and I'm currently a sophomore film major at Loyola Marymount University in LA. My ambition is to make documentaries! I'm quite obsessed and spend most of my time watching the History Channel or the National Geographic Channel I have to make three movies this year, and for my second doc, I decided (during our 7 hour delirious car ride back down from Oakland for the Mika show) to ask our very own Sivan be the subject - and she graciously agreed! I filmed it with the help of Taylor (lollipopgirl83) and it turned out pretty cool. I got nothing but positive comments from my classmates, which (trust me) at film school are hard to get from other students! And many of them commented about how Sivan seems like such a fun person, they really liked her and they felt like they got to know her really well. We weren't allowed to use sync sound, so it's all done in voiceovers. And it was only allowed to be 3-4 minutes long, otherwise it would be much longer than this! So take a look, I just thought you guys would like to see it since Sivan is awesome. Hope you like it! So, MIKA, if you see this....... will you just hire me as your camera person already??? It would be my dream job! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But seriously, this turned out soooo great...really, all the credit goes to you two. It's awesome. And YEAH MIKA. Seriously, Clare on video, Sivan on photos, and me in writing. It's the perfect team.

lovempls Posted November 5, 2009 Author Share Posted November 5, 2009 and yeah i think we should make one about Mika one day in the future... of he let us My dream job... maybe he'll let me make my 400 film about him. My big Senior Thesis film. A girl can dream.... Here's what they wrote about you, Sivan: Great topic - very interesting to hear about Israel from someone my own age. [see, they think you're 20! Told you you look young!] I felt like I was really getting to know the girl. The character was fascinating and likeable. I loved seeing various possessions of hers as she told stories. I especially liked the part where she compares friendships in Israel and the US. I love that she talked about the cultural situation of the Middle East. She has a really interesting story. And then there was the girl who said: "The film is a documentary about a girl who fled Israel due to political upheaval and conflict and came to LA." Hmmm... not quite Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
