@@SjoerdWess ill write an article on the movie - not the movie per se, but the process - i think one can make a documentary with an phone, not everyone needs (or can afford) a cine-camera setup...

@ToddDouglasFox 11 месяцев назад

@@JeffBodeanCinemaIt doesn’t have to destroy anything precious, irreducible, sacred to show the ways creativity was formulated into medium. The creativity itself remains a mystery, pristine and indestructible. For me this is the meaning of this film. Many young women and girls are forced mostly be men sexually. If all of them suddenly knew they were indestructible, the world would change for the better in an instant. Here’s to another step towards that instant 🥂

I almost sold my BMPCC6K and now I am keeping it and I thank you for that! A good film does not entirely rely on an expensive cinema camera. If you know how to use your tool, regardless the lack of certain specs and low selling price, you can make a beautiful story, a film, an art! Thank you for this beautiful short!

@SjoerdWess 3 года назад

Thanks a lot Alexander. And I couldn’t agree more! This camera is capable of so much. The color science and DR is amazing! Go out and shoot some dope stuff with it :-)

@sourabhkc 3 года назад

Great work Sjoerd. 'My Meditation' is captivating, moving, and inspiring. And in reference to the title - it is true filmmaking; It's so refreshing when the technical tool (the BMPCC 6k Pro in this instance) is not upstaging the subject. I truly felt immersed in the story and felt that it came first here. Karen is the hero, and her journey and being is healing to so many people. Looking forward to seeing more of your work.

@SjoerdWess 3 года назад

Your comment absolutely touches my heart. This is why I do what I do. Thank you SO much for letting me know what you think.

@jakubsleczka 2 года назад

Oh Man, you've made me cry. For me, father of two young girls, the story of Karen is shocking and inspiring at the same time. I can't imagine what she's been through but she found her peace and new aim. That is so good and I'm so happy about that even that I don't know her personaly. I am writing this because it is your merit that the story is so touching and shows the heroine's drama. A well-written script, which is a huge and important part of our work. The pictures are great, they show the technical aspect of slackline and its difficulty. In addition, it shows this sport from every perspective, not just the final over the precipice. the sound also does a great job! the sounds of climbing carabiners, Karen's very clear voice and sensationally selected music build the atmosphere of the whole movie. HUGE CONGRATULATIONS!
