Project Summary
My name is Jared blash, I am a cinematographer and photographer based out of New hampshire. I was born in pennsylvania and moved up to new hampshire when I was about 10 years old. I've always loved movies since I was young, as I grew older my love for movies and photography started to grow. Living in New England has been an amazing experience and over The past few years I've really started to appreciate life and the beautiful universe we live in.
I've created this campaign so I can shoot a time-lapse/short film that captures New England's beautiful winters and night sky. A lot of people don't get to experience the beautiful new England scenery in winter because they don't want to hike for hours through snow in cold weather. Funding my campaign will allow this amazing scenery to be viewed by anyone in beautiful cinematic way.
What We Need & What You Get
Basically I am in need of a new camera and weather proofing gear in order to make this project a reality. The $2500 would go into the camera and a weatherproof/heated camera housing to film in snow storms/ really cold windy conditions. I'm not %100 on what camera I will be getting but I have 2 in mind with which Im weighing the pros and cons. If I get more then the goal I will be putting it towards a camera crane to add another cinematic approach to the video. If I reach anything past $3000 I will post an update as to how I plan to wisely use the extra money.
I have a homemade time-lapse/video slider I built controlled by the dynamic perception mx2 controller, an Emotimo pt pan and tilt head, Canon 550d, 11-6mm,50mm, and 90mm macro lens. Unfortunately my camera the canon 550d is reaching the end of its life cycle so I need a new camera for this upcoming project.
Almost every perk includes a HD digital download of the film! The film will be free to watch on vimeo and youtube but if you'd like to have a higher clarity version to put on the tv for when you have guests or anything like that Im giving you the availability to do so. Other perks are a shout out on the website, 11x14 prints, 16x20 prints, a photo book filled with some of my favorite photos I've taken and will take from my upcoming shoots over winter! For the highest option you can have a 30 minute google hangout with me to ask any questions about photography/ time-lapse and post processing!
If I don't raise the entire goal it will still go towards completing this project. This is something I have been planning and really want to do. I think it's important people realize see the beauty thats hidden in plain sight.
