The Army Nurse | Short Film (Shot on BMPCC4k)
Фильм және анимация
During the infamous Battle of the Bulge in 1944, a young army nurse stays behind during an evacuation, where she is thrown into a situation in which a soldier's life depends on her ability to act quickly.
The Army Nurse is an independent short film written, directed, and shot by Ryan Margetts (@rygetts)
www.tigertrapmedia.com
This film was created as an entry for the Aputure Light This Location international short film competition, with the following rules:
- Must be shot all in one location
- Must use LIGHTING in a creative way to tell the story
- Must include the word "accent" somehow
- Must be 5 minutes long (obviously this version is 11 min, so a 5 minute version was made and submitted to the competition. The 11 minute version shows the full story).

It's actually fairly normal for a patient to be laughing even though they may be in immense pain. Everyone deals with pain differently.

iann martinez I couldn’t agree more, they were the first nurses to serve on the front lines of a war. As I researched for this I was so humbled and inspired by all the stories I read of how brave they were. Thanks for watching and good luck in nursing school! Thank you for choosing such an important profession!

The last thing you do in a trauma is give them water. Her finding the 2nd wound that was more severe too late, is why we cut off all the clothes first. If he had lost soooo much blood there would be more proof of it and he wouldn't be able to sit up hours later. The best ww2 nurses book out there is " If I perish".

Absolutely stunning, this looks like it could be a Hollywood film. Is it uploaded anywhere other than KZread? I ask because it's so heavily compressed here that it reduces some of the beauty of the shots.

Hello everyone! I am really confused in choosing between Sony a6600, a6400, Black Magic Pocket 4K with having a budget up to 1200$. I am new in this area & wishing to make short films with the same Hollywood Cinematic effects. I have 400 $ budget for the lens. Appreciate your useful suggestions.
Very good work, I think the color grading can help a little more but anyway it is a very good job, congratulations many successes

Fantastic job!!! We know, how hard is it to make such a short film. Has a wonderful filmlook. We also shoot at the Moment, but had to stop it for a couple of weeks due this crisis. 😔 But we start again soon. In between, we also bought this cam. Did you film in Q5 (Constant Quality) or 5:1 (Constant Bitrate)? And... Wich Tiffen was it? The 1/8 or 1/4 Blackmist? We have both here. Think I should take the 1/8. Hmmm. Or? Is the 1/4 to much. Eben with haze? We wish you lot's of success for the future. See you on the next festivals... 😍😍😍

A important question i must ask. This was not shot 24fps @ a °180 degree shutter angle Correct?, Correct me if I'm wrong. Was it shot at 60fps?.it appears to be shot at a Higher Then 24fps. Thanx. Good work. D.

@Arvid Kracht without a proper explanation this "sensor filmic cadence" is plain bullshit. Anyone can say anything that sounds fancy without backing it up. Or maybe you didn't choose your words right because cadence is rhythm. The cinematic rhythm is given by the editing not by the focken sensor.
Very well done! I saw something about a BTS, on the closing credits. Is there a BTS video? If so, is it here on KZread?

@@LordJagd This was extremely low budget, I essentially wanted to pay my actors and crew and feed them, I put together an IndieGoGo campaign to raise $4,000. We ended up only raising about $3,000. I obtained all the costumes, props, set, etc. by myself by shopping at antique shops, military surplus stores, and borrowing as much as I could from friends/coworkers. The tent was loaned to me by a coworker, thank God! But I basically had enough to pay everyone and pay myself back for a FEW of the costumes/props haha. We shot the whole thing in one day.
