LBCK – Start (dir. Leah McKissock)

start

Winner, Student Category, LAMVF 2011. A very fun student video that plays with a Warhol-esque sensibility, live action filming and a whole lot of dance. The cuts and transitions, along with the logo-play were among our favorite parts.

The Dirty Projectors – The Bride (dir. Kerry Westcott)

the bride

Dirty Projectors – the bride (unofficial) from Kerry Westcott on Vimeo. Audience Favorite Winner, Student Category, LAMVF 2011. A student video for The Dirty Projectors’ “The Green Bride.” Whimsical and fleeting, the video is a good reflection of the tone of the song, and takes place in a magical garden of Eden. Eden and bubbles.

pretty

Official Selection, Student Category, LAMVF 2011. A fun stop-motion rock video that takes a weird twist a minute or two in and then just runs with the potential to interpret movement within the stop-motion format.

Samwell – My Knees Gettin’ Dirty (dir. Josh da Silva)

knees gettin dirty

Official Selection, Student Category, LAMVF 2011. We’d rather you simply watch this for yourself. No words of ours can do justice to the visual feast that is this video. If you recall Samwell from his internet breakout video, “What What (In the Butt),” then you may have an inkling of what you’re in for.

Quiet Life – Jim’s Wedding Band (dir. Ben Fee)

quiet life

Official Selection, Student Category, LAMVF 2011. This is just an adorable video. There’s not much more to say about it: a wedding, a band, soft-focus and friends having fun. The format lends itself to the feeling that this was cut from footage of an actual wedding, which just adds to the charm.
