Friends, following the success of my 360-degree query, here’s one more: films 
with Expressionist-style large shadows, such as the sewer in the Third Man or 
Noirs like The Big Combo. I need shadows of whole human figures as well as 
hands (as in Nosferatu).

Re: [Frameworks] Tech help - extracting clips from DVDs

2015-11-03 Thread sarah jm kolberg

hi all:

i do the same thing and have also recently run into problems with 
handbrake - stated in the last month or so but i've never had any issues 
before.  what happens is it starts encoding, runs for about 10 seconds 
and then says "your handbrake is done" - but, of course, it isn't.


would also appreciate any ideas/suggestions.

Hi Frameworkers,

I've been having a recurring tech issue and hoping some experts can 
offer some guidance. Please respond back under separate email if you 
have any thoughts.


I often extract film clips from DVDs for teaching and embed them into 
my PPTs.


However, I have increasingly run into issues with VLC and Handbrake 
and no one I have spoken to has any suggestions —the images often 
appear corrupt/pixeled in Handbrake; the sound and image separate on 
VLC (sound plays for about 10-20 seconds before image starts). This 
occurs with my transfers from both older and new DVDs so I do not 
think that anti-piracy coding is to blame.


I was curious if anyone has run into similar problems and has any work 
arounds. Alternatively, what other software (preferably free or 
low-cost) is available that I can use?


I have a relatively new Mac laptop and I've uninstalled/reinstalled 
both programs.


Thank you,
Tanya

Re: [Frameworks] countryside film

2015-07-13 Thread sarah jm kolberg
franco - not 'traditionally' an experimental film, but godard's weekend 
is as dystopic a view of the idyllic ountryside as you will get.  
otherwise, again narrative films - straw dogs came to mind, and haneke's 
white ribbon.


best,

Hi
I'm looking for experimental films where the idyllic vision of the 
countryside is overturned. Films that show the violence and ignorance 
that reign in the little villages in opposition, for example, with the 
hippie vision of the countryside.


Non experimental films are welcome also.
I think to:
Hunting Scenes from Bavaria little village
La Poison
Straw Dogs

Thanks a lot.
