This is a really personal short film that I wrote, directed, shot, and edited.
"Forty Seven" is a day in the life of a young man who is completing a list of "47 Things to do Before I Die" while documenting it with post-it notes and Polaroids.

haha...my one person crew (myself) and my silly little camera that I love...you'd be surprised what some intensive color correction will do for you.
...I get to use awesome equipment...but for this film..this is just all me by myself.
That dolly shot?
Yup..I definitely put a whiteboard on my skateboard and put the tripod on that.
the things you do to "get the shot"
is he really dying? :( thats so sad :(
great shots, very professional!
(not to mention that i'm more concerned with the cinematography over the editing, even though it's for an editing class hahaha)....
I'm a better person for having made it.
On a more unrelated note...I'm gonna try marmite...so we have that to look forward to...haha.
Staff pick!
I have to keep working up to making more things with cinematography that will make people's hearts explode.
hahaha :-)
Thank you for taking the time to watch it...it means a lot to me.
I know, its totally liberating, he completed his list, he can go now with a smile and I'm lucky he did and it makes me somehow happy – but on the other hand the story made me so sad that I could not continue watching other videos ...
I hope you can continue watching fantastic vimeo videos today :-)
Thank you for your comments.
(Your name reminds me of one of the lion characters on Animal Crossing - a game on the gamecube...he was always my favorite...Aziz the lion with blue hair.. this is what he looks like animalcrossing.neoseeker.com/images/uploads/lions_mini.png
I know that was completely unrelated..haha...but yeah. I love Aziz. haha.
that's when I realized, I was too old for this :)
I have many memories of it taking over my life.
And me scheduling my life AROUND it.
*sigh*
You will be my Aziz lion from now on.
haha
I need to keep making videos to catch up to your 100.
hahahah.
:-)
Hopefully once school is done at the end of this week I'll have more time to make some stuff Take care scruffs.
We need to go on adventures together
via the interwebs...
haha
the vimeo community would stop if there wasn't any rems in it.
:-)
"we'll fix it in post"
haha
(Dinosaurs are vital to any Karen project. haha just kidding.)
When I was little, I had an imaginary friend that was a brontosaurus.
hehe
you are right, the shot of the sky is strange when he looks outside. otherwise, don't worry. I think it is a great short and you can keep it as it is.
I THINK IT ROCKS LIKE A DINOSAUR!!!!!!!!
You're my favorite little chomper.
chomp chomp
thanks for dealing with me when i am hysterical and delusional while editing.
I'm lucky to have a loving and encouraging vimeo community and Vimians like you.
:-)
outstanding job.
Your friend via your movie has inspired me
I will start my own list and try to complete tasks (or at least work towards them) everyday.
haha
Thanks Baumer <3
Thanks for taking the time to watch this Ben.
I hope that helps.
The wall is really THAT blue in real life.
PS I like how you respond to most comments on your video. It shows you care and are appreciative of comments/compliments.
good luck and keep it up!

Thanks for your positive feedback. The first original cut i Made actually didn't have outside audio, and it was more of a music video type thing, but it didn't have the feel I wanted. Unlucky for me I had the intentions of doing that while filming, so most of the audio is really really awful and is of me talking to Tim telling him what to do and directing him. Or him making jokes. But it was a great experience.
I look forward to checking out more of your stuff. Have an absolutely beautiful day.
I saw on Tumblr you made some tweaks on this.. can't wait to see them!
Keep up the amazing work. I enjoy viewing them :)
