    hey people! have you decided yet what you're filming on Friday? We most probably will do a double session, with half of the day in downtown Athens, and the rest in the nature around the city.

    Last year we filmed the bicycle circle in Athens.

  • Sibylle Meder

    How many of you are NOT in or around Athens or Thessaloniki?
    I'm based on the island of Tilos at the moment and was wondering whether there will be other contributions from rural Greece.

    And will any of you film anything ΚΡΙΣΗ/crisis-related?
    Not decided on that one yet. While it is surely important considering recent political developments, I think maybe I am fed up with images of Greece in trouble and want to show that there is life in Greece beyond the crisis. What do you think?

  • Ioli Tripodaki

    Well i m in Chania of Crete and i 've decided to film a trekking trip that i m scheduling.. though nothing is sure until friday comes..
    As long as the crisis is concerned here things are much better than in Athens were i am from.. so nothing interesting can be filmed with that subject in Chania though i think it's very important to have a representative video of the situation in Greece.
    If you have some others ideas concerning nature and sports let me know ..

  • Athens Filmmakers

    Hi everyone! Here we're ready to shoot!

  • Sibylle Meder

    Hi Ioli and everyone,
    hmm, Chania and hmmm, hiking in Crete, sounds lovely. I think the Cretan mountains (I suppose that's where you'll be) will be spectacular, so sounds like a great plan! Fingers crossed your trek can go on as scheduled.
    And - because you asked for other ideas - you could combine the sport aspect (maybe some rock-climbing, too?) with nature (could you get a sunrise or sunset time lapse in the mountains? or some mountain goats or birds?) and maybe cultural things: mountain village impressions, herders, vegetation, tourism... Ah, now I miss Crete, it's been too long since I've last been there!

    Yes, crisis-wise I think the islands are a bit sheltered - though of course there are certain things that concern every Greek, like non-existent pensions etc... But not sure whether that is the event of the day. It seems like tomorrow is the deadline for the 6th tranche of part of the rescue package to be paid out - but that's a bit hard to film on a remote island unless you go out and interview people... (Those were my ideas so far in regards to the crisis topic.)

    I am planning to film two things: one art project - a short film about a painter (who happens to be my mum) doing her latest painting in a series of abstract images. I will include images of the nature here as well, since some of that is related to her choice of paints, colours, etc. Then, time permitting, I am also planning to capture impressions of the island's nature (beach, harbours, vegetation, animals) and possibly a few scenes in the village. It's a lot, so I might have to drop some of it, but I've scheduled to film during the whole day and see what I come up with. (And if there are references to the crisis, even the better. I'll just keep that topic at the back of my head.) Nature shots will depend a little on the weather - it's starting to get a bit cloudy here with southerly winds so we might have some spectacular (and rather rare) rainfalls... We will see. Good luck everyone with your filming!

    Get your batteries charged!

  • Athens Filmmakers

    Just shot the first four hours of the day. Great full moon night!
    In a few hours we'll be shooting at the fish market downtown!

  • DOC TV

    Hey everyone! Great ideas from Chania and Tilos! The fish market will give great footage too! We just shot our first four hours! We decided too to avoid crisis related themes like Sibylle commented. So we filmed the sunrise over Athens! An ordinary day with beautiful cloudy skies moving fast over the city. Later on we'll film the sunset too! Meanwhile recharging and ingesting.. :)

  • Sergio Kotsovoulos

    Good afternoon people!

    I started time-lapse-ing in downtown athens at 1 through 4 (freezing).
    Will set up another one now, and then I m off to meet some friends for some 11-11-11 silkscreen printing! I planning on shooting the sunset to ( I was too tired and missed the sunrise ;( )

  • Sibylle Meder

    Hey, everyone! Just finished for today - after 12 hours. (Got up at 5 am to film early morning ferry arriving.) So I'm well tired! Your time lapses sound great! Yes, there were some amazing clouds formations down here, too. Can't wait to see the fish market. I've got local fishermen on their caique throwing out nets in the early morning with beautiful silver light - and they send their catch to Athens usually. So you might have filmed their catch from a few days ago which they would have sent on the F/B Diagoras, the ferry I filmed first thing today. :-)

  • Costis

  • Giannis JR Kritikos

    Hey everyone, just finished for today as well. My idea was a short with skateboarding in the centre of Athens with monuments at the background.
    can't wait to see yours.
    peace

  • Athens Filmmakers

    Hey! We just returned after an exchausting day of shooting!
    Have some great stuff from the central fish market and a surprise!
    We snipped into the presidential palace and have some great shots from the first moments of the new goverment and Loukas Papadimos, our new (not by vote hmmmmm) prime minister Loukas Papadimos.
    Costis maybe we can exchange some materials for that.
    Sibylle the thing we the fishes is that we ended up eating souvlaki once more...
    Waiting for your fishes!
    Guys we wish to all of you a great editing and a fine project!

  • DOC TV

    Hey people! Just got back from our long day! Early noon we filmed at Acropolis to celebrate UNESCO's participation in the project. No tripods allowed there so the cameras were lying on the rocks with tourists looking at us :)
    Around 4pm we got back on Lycabetus to film the sunset but there wasn't any. There were too many clouds and some serious wind. We managed though to film the Acropolis while lighting up for the night. All in all one exhausting but very fulfilling day on earth!

  • Sibylle Meder

    Hey! Sounds lovely! Very glad, someone went political after I dissuaded everyone else from it! ;-) So, have a good rest everyone! Still waiting for the moon to rise over the mountain... but if it doesn't come soon, I'll be asleep. Yes, exhausting but fulfilling day on earth! Glad to have met you all through this. :-)

  • Sibylle Meder

    Hello everyone, this is some raw footage of my early morning ferry arrival, unedited! Please excuse the sound, a ship engine is pretty noisy...
  • Sibylle Meder

    And here, again raw footage, a short clip of the local fishermen throwing out the first nets of the day.
