Cinemablography is abroad in Italy! We were able to send a camera along with a few students and they produced a wonderful video of their first week there. They visited sites such as Santa Croce and the Uffizi Museum. Take a look at what they are surrounded by and the activities they are participating in. We are very excited to see what else they discover and learn! 
Click on the picture to check out a very awesome video done by Rolando Vega! Stay tuned for more in the coming weeks. 

Buon Giorno!

For the next two weeks, Cinemablography is spending some relaxing time under the Tuscan sun to observe and experience the beautiful cinematic landscapes of Italy. A formal class on Italian film and its gorgeous set locations, Italian Cityscapes, is being taught by our very own Professor Fabrizio Cilento. As we delve deeper into the experience, expect more updates featuring more blog posts, pictures and even some more videos! Stay tuned for more updates. Ciao!

Here is another viral video for Ridley Scott's Prometheus. This movie is getting more exposure every week. This viral includes a video phone call from Dr. Elizabeth Shaw, Noomi Rapace's character, to Mr. Weyland of Weyland Enterprises. Watch the video for more insight into the plot of Prometheus. This looks like one of the biggest Sci-Fi releases of the year. 

Did you catch some of the Yutani references? Why are Yutani and Weyland Enterprises separate entities? How much will Prometheus reveal about the evolution of the evil mega-conglomerate first starring in Alien? We'll have to wait and see...

Here's a new featurette showing some of the aliens from Men in Black III. The mind behind all of the alien special effects, Rick Baker, shares his insights and experiences on the film.

In the film industry it is hard to break out as a young filmmaker. As a 25-year-old writer, producer, director, Lena Dunham has overcome those odds.  After the success of her feature film, Tiny Furniture, Dunham has become the it-girl for young and women filmmakers. At her young age, she has already done two feature films, several online videos, and is the new star, creator, writer, and director of the show Girls on HBO. 

In this video from PressPausePlay, Lena Dunham talks about how difficult it is as a young filmmaker to be in the film industry today. The rise of digital video is nothing new, but it is coming to a point where it is overpowering the film industry. Dunham explains that while it's great that everyone with $1500 can buy a nice video camera and shoot their own film, there is also a down side to letting just anyone be a filmmaker. As young filmmakers ourselves, we understand where Dunham is coming from. The video captured a great conversation with Dunham and is something all young filmmakers should check out.
