EMF Sci Fi Film/Tent Man

Who is Tent Man? Is he an avatar birthed by a tent? Does he have a link to the tent and runs back to it if it is threatened? Do we see timelapses of the tent in the field looking peaceful or happy as tent man experiences the world? Is Tent Man the tent itself? Does he have arms, legs and a head and wears the tent around him like a suit? Can he commune with the other tents? Does he expand to full tent size if threatened? Does he expand to allow his new found friends to shelter from the cold and rain? Does his ultimate moment of existence happen when he has made many friends and not only can he shelter them but they bring the party inside him. How big does he get??? Does he wear this hat when it rains? http://ebay.eu/1BFCuLE

'''A tent is sad because it constantly gets taken to festivals,but never gets to go to the events. One day, its owner forgets h ow to pack it up and does it all wrong, accidentally twisting and folding it into the shape of a human man. The tent seizes this opportunity to spend a day exploring the festival. Happiness ensues.'''

[[EMF Sci Fi Film/Tent Man|More Details here]]

|-
|Pascoe
|Deadline
|A man is injected with deadly poison and has only hours to live. In this damaged state, he stumbles across the EMF festival and soon formulates a delirious plan to make himself part-machine and thereby save his own life
|I'm mostly just imagining James stumbling around the festival, accosting people and attempting to eat circuit-boards and the like.
|-
|James
|Festival Man
|My thought was to do something local, since I read recently that there were neolithic artifacts found near Milton Keynes. A tattooed Stone age man has somewhow been put into a kind of suspended animation (a la Lindow Man--but..ummm....better...) around the time of Stonehenge's construction--he awakes at the festival and has to work out where he is, finally exchanging his neolithic jewellry trinkets for the "magic" circuit board / other techno goodies. One of the goodies he gets zaps him back home to the bronze age at the end.
|
|-
|Alia
|Holiday at the end of the universe
|An alien wanders around EMF chatting to the attendees and going
to all the events, writing the experience up as an article for a galactic
travel blog
|
|-
|Bugs
|Proof of Concept
|Follow an attendee character around EMF, visiting the more eye-catching
installations/demos/etc and surreptitiously taking stuff
from each person visited (a circuit board, a weird-looking
component, a chunk of machined metal...). Eventually pointed looks and
comments make it clear that this is pre-arranged, just very much under the
table. We also see that EMF is being watched from a distance by a
bland, professional-looking type.

Later that night, the attendee has gone far from the crowds and assembled
the components into some weird-looking device. The professional enters
and,
threatens attendee with an odd-looking weapon, looks over the device and
is impressed that the design is more elegant than others the professional
has seen.

The attendee insists that that they wasn't going to abuse it, and only
wanted to know 'if it was possible'. The professional is unmoved, pulls
out a couple of components, makes a final adjustment, powers the device up
and starts walking away. The attendee peers at the device to see what was
done, realises, starts to lunge away, then the attendee and the device
blink out of existence.

|-
|Pascoe
|Raise the roof
|The organiser of the festival loses the gigantic roof he ordered. He's panicked, but no one else seems to care.
|Sam: that's not even funny, so many panic situations and we're still 10 days out 0_0
|-
|Alia
|Invisible Friend
|A man accidentally turns his friend invisible at EMF and loses him. He
spends the whole festival looking for his friend who has dropped and lost
his now invisible phone.
|
|-
|Alia
|Grandfather Paradox
|A timetraveller goes to EMF to meet his grandfather. He gets tired and
has to find somewhere to plug himself in to recharge. Eventually he finds
the tent where the A.I. experiment is happening.
|[[File:Electromagnetic_Field-Grandfather_Paradox-OUTLINE-SCRIPT-V1.pdf ]]
Pascoe's addition: I was suggesting was that the reveal of roboticness/non-literal-grandfatherness could be preceded by a scene in which the ‘grandfather’ suffers a horrific groin injury, rendering him impotent. We think “Oh no, now James could never have been born”, but then the AI sign or whatever comes into view. “Hooray” we all shout, “That horrific groin injury wasn’t so serious after all”. The end.
|-
|Alia
|Robots Day Off
|A man is being chased by a deadly robot that looks just like him. The
robot chases the man into EMF, but gets distracted and decides it would be
more fun to just go to the festival. By the time they meet up again the
man has constructed a weapon to kill the robot with but the robot just
wants to be friends. And make homebrew.
|
|-
|Crypt
|Dire Predictions
|A man writes a computer program that can flawlessly predict the future then he runs it and finds out theres going to be a huge disaster at EMF, and has to run around the site to warn everyone. Gets in lots of fights with the people running various instalations, then gets out just in time to see the entire site blow up in some hideous explosion
| Gets a nice tour of the site, with some fun explosions and effects at the end :)
|-
|Alia
|Deep Thought
|Someone has an accident in the food tent and ingests a concoction that lets them 'see' other peoples thoughts. As the night wears on it becomes apparent that more and more people have eaten the same thing.
|Potential for fun with text overlays onto video here.

== Main filming kit ==

'''Camera''': Lumix GH3

'''Lenses''': 12-35mm, 20mm f1.7, 14-15mm, 14-140mm, 17.5mm f0.95, 50mm f1.4 full frame manual lens, polarising & ND filters for some lenses.

'''Sound''': Marantz PMD661 field recorder, Mix Pre-D field mixer, sony radio mic, boom pole, seinheisser me66 shotgun mic, seinheisser me67 shotgun mic
Manual for Mix Pre-D: http://www.sounddevices.com/download/guides/mixpre-d_en.pdf
'''Lights''': A couple of LED light banks (battery powered) & some camping lanterns.

'''Sync & logging''': Clapperboard & Logging sheets File:Logging_Sheet.pdf

Note - additional cameras will be used as needed for timelapses, drone flight, cutaways, general views and if people find themselves getting inspired. The setup above will be expected to get the main bulk of the action.

== Setup specifics ==

'''Sound Setup''':

[[File:Simple-audio-setup.pdf]] describes (with many pictures) the sound setup for a single camera shoot with external clean sound being recorded on 2 separate channels, one channel to actor via radio lapel mic, 2nd channel to wild sound or other actors via shotgun mic on boom pole. Sync via clapperboard.

== Format specifics ==

'''Recording format (camera)''': 1080p50 AVCHD 48khz sound (can also record 1080p25 if low light becomes an issue, but will need to transcode this up to 1080p50 for editing)

'''Recording format (sound)''': 24 bit PCM 48Khz

== Ingest specifics ==

* Sync video to clean audio using Dual Eyes (I have a copy of this) A free trial of [http://sur.ly/o/singularsoftware.com/download_trial.php%3Fversion%3Ddualeyes_w/AA001290 Plural Eyes] will also do the job

* SD card clones uploaded to server (read-only) + copied to local HDD

* Synced & transcoded footage uploaded to server + copied to local HDD.

'''Need to have a conversation at the outset regarding whether conversion to prores is sensible or if trascode only applies to ensuring all footage is at 1080p50.
