ABOUT THE MOVIE
- - - -
Title: man.
Director: Ray Arthur Wang
Genre: Experimental | Docudrama | Short
Budget: $0
Tagline: A meditation on man's place in the world and the duality of man. Although a human is never directly seen, human presence is felt as the worlds of the natural and unnatural collide.
Anecdote: What are the chances of a film like this being made? By chance, I found one day a crippled bird struggling to get across the street. It broke my heart to see it suffer, and I started thinking of ways to help it. Lo and behold, I found a crumpled McDonald's cup nearby in the parking lot and used it to scoop up the bird and put it in the shade, away from the dangers of abruptly moving cars. All the while I had grabbed and turned on my camera since I love to tape nature, especially birds. Then, I started getting ideas for a short film, based on the two contrasting images of the crippled bird and the crumpled cup, with man in between. Conceived and shot in under one hour with zero planning, man. became an improvised and introspective tale on nature vs. man vs. man-made.
Inspired by J. S. Bach, Ingmar Bergman, and Natural Beauty
AND
"On the Duality of Man" (Chapter 29 "Ambition") from Tao Te Ching by Lao Tzu (c. 550 BC) read in the film from three unique perspectives: Bob May (American) in English, Helen Wang (Chinese) in Mandarin, and RAW (Chinese American) in English.

Back To The Very Beginning I had not had a moving-picture camera pointed at me in something like 23 years since I took a couple (More) I had not had a moving-picture camera pointed at me in something like 23 years since I took a couple of film school courses back in college, and we shot in Super8 and 160 Ektachrome...
I was very nervous and didn't know what kind of a trip I was embarking on, but I felt I had a voice just like all the other regular people out there, not professional actors, on YouTube...
So I bought a digital camera that the salesman assured me would shoot videos, and besides, Cindy was making noises about getting a digital camera for taking vacation pictures as we were booked for Cancun in just a few short months. I loved taking pictures with my old SLR, but if this thing could take vacation pictures AND shoot videos, it was a clear case of two birds dying by the flinging of just one stone. I was just aching to make videos like Geriatric1927, Zipster08, Phaedress, Tushygalore, and all the other regular people who made the videos that I'd seen on here. The idea totally fascinated me that I, too, would be watched. Then I could give back to YouTube some of the hours of entertainment that I had already received!
So I carefully composed my shot, and sat in front of the camera, and feeling nervous as well as like a total goof, I started talking about my experiences with (what else?) computers!
I shot the thing and tried to upload it. I got the rude message that my video was too long (But it was ONLY about four minutes! I saw YouTube videos a lot LONGER than that many times.) The very next day, I shot a little more footage, thinking that I hadn't quite put my first day's effort quite eloquently enough...
I couldn't put that up either, but I heard about editing! The last time I did any editing, it was with real film, and I cut the film where I wanted to cut it, taped the little images together carefully so that they wouldn't snag up the projector, and added sound later with a projector that had provision for it, and film that had a strip of magnetic tape stuck to the actual film, plugged into a cassette deck for recording music on the film,
or a microphone for adding post-production voice to a film that had sound recorded on it with a microphone when the film was being shot, truly a "Rube Goldberg kind of setup" if ever there was one! Here it all was in a package the size of the transistor radio I had when I was in grade four, but I digress...
I was so frustrated that about my video not going up that I pointed the camera at myself and expressed my frustration as best I knew how. That's the very beginning of this video! I made a test video, entitled "Drunk Kitchen," where I panned the camera around my sloppy kitchen in an up and down 360 degree kind of thing. For a lark, I tried uploading it, and I got the "Upload
Successful" message! I was on the right track...
So my computer had this iMovieHD program built-in. Ugh! More work!!!
This video venture was not as easy as I thought it would be (I didn't own a web cam and still don't, but I have three digital cameras!) I tooled around in there until I found "Import." I tried importing my files that I'd loaded from the camera to the computer and there they were! Figuring out how to cut and splice electronically was a little less intuitive than in the old Super8 days,
because I've always been a hands-on kinda guy, but I managed to do it somehow after many hours of cursing and swearing. Then I saved all my hard work. But how to put my masterpiece on YouTube. After more hours of slaving, I found "Share" right under "Save Project." I tried that. There were a few settings, but I wanted my project to look GOOD, so I chose "Full Quality"
which made an mp4 file, which is not viewable on the Mac. I deleted the project immediately, but kept the .AVI
files from the camera for posterity. Am I ever glad I did. So that takes us to a couple of weeks ago, after everything had long been moved to an external hard drive. I kept all my projects and I compressed them to the next-best setting; the .mov file. The only project missing was that first one!
In order to have a copy I'd need to re-edit it. What to do with your first vlog while remaking it? I played around and edited the snot right out of it, and I added my frustration clip that I originally loaded raw as, I think, "Why Can't I?"
So that's where the idea for Pet Projects Week began. If you read this so far before seeing the video, I promise you that the video will be
shorter. Enjoy! (Less)
