When you only have 48 Hours to make your film, there isn’t a lot of time for anything, even blinking. Veteran 48HFP filmmaker and multiple award winner Paul Aspuria, and his team Film Antics created this short film in just two days and we think it looks fabulous. This year, for the 10th time, the 48 [...]

One of our finest traditions here at See It Online is to bring you irresistible and well made web comedy. Today to commemorate Baseball’s 2012 Opening Day, we share this gem from UCBComedy. We were always pretty sure it goes something like this at First Base.

The folks at Transvideo Studios work each and every day to produce some of the finest commercial and industrial media that the Bay Area has to offer. This film was their contribution to the San Francisco 48 Hour Film Project in 2009. The story won the hearts and minds of both audience and judges, and [...]

When you look in the coolerator and see that you’re out of quinoa and mango salsa — there’s only one thing to do. Get yourself to the Whole Foods parking lot! There’s nothing we can add to this. Genius sometimes shows up equipped with its own shopping bags.

In a season of bad news, poorly produced videos meant to shock us into consciousness, and regurgitated snippets from terrible faux news programming, it’s refreshing to encounter a well made comic masterpiece.

These guys have been making a movie every weekend for weeks now. In a mere 24 hours (or so) they put together a movie every weekend.   Look — a simple joke, a sleepless weekend, a truckload of fluorescent lights, and a working air pistol — 800,000 YouTube views. Got the memo? It’s longer than [...]

The folks at FiLMiC Pro wanted to be sure that we could believe that it’s possible to turn an iPhone into a credible capture device for 24p video. So they did what they knew we’d demand. They showed us. It’s clear they had some fun making this too. If their engineers exhibit as much bravado [...]

Long time readers here may have been introduced to Mr. Deity in the past. And if not, here’s a wonderful introduction to this long-running series. It also explains a lot of things I wondered about. It’s always nice to learn how things really happened.
