Love Sparks
Loading ...Hello all. My name is Olan Rogers. I’m a college student. And I shot this video on a HVX 200, a Flip Mino SD, and a iphone. My everyday days are nothing exciting, and I’m not going to pretend I sky dive or build electronmagnetic rocket ship parts, or do some other kind of extreme sport. I live a pretty normal life. I’ve also been a dreamer and always will be. But I hope you enjoy the video. Thanks for taking the time to watch it.

December 22nd, 2009 at 8:25 am
Love it!
December 22nd, 2009 at 8:40 am
[...] The clip is entitled Love Sparks, and from a technical aspect, t was not shot with anything magnificent, but every cut is emotive, and the dialogue is touching. To add to that, I felt that the composition was strong in portraying what it needed. I think if you can reach out and touch emotion in a film and connect with someone on that level, people will be forgiving as to the quality of the video… This is evidence of that – Amazing job!Click here [...]
December 22nd, 2009 at 8:46 am
enjoyed the vision, thanks!
December 22nd, 2009 at 9:32 am
Wow! Inspirational! Amazing! Creative! Poetic! I’m never going to go through a day of my life the same way again. Love Sparks.

December 22nd, 2009 at 3:51 pm
Sorry Myles Thompson, but it’s not meant to be the most action packed, comedic, epic video out there. As far as I know.. It’s inspirational.
December 22nd, 2009 at 3:53 pm
Oh, and… Olan, this movie is one of the best shorts I have seen in a while. Great job. I’m waiting for a film from you on the big screen.

awesome.. cool.. great.. grand.. wonderful.. euphoric.
December 23rd, 2009 at 10:17 pm
I really enjoyed the editing. I liked the cinematographic choices. It looked pretty, but it didn’t FEEL original. Torn. Still did a good job
December 23rd, 2009 at 10:25 pm
Amazing job! You should definitely win! much better than the other ones i have seen!!
December 23rd, 2009 at 10:57 pm
dude you are my hero
December 24th, 2009 at 1:21 am
I’ve seen this many times and focuses on romantic love, which is fine, but again not original. The camera work - very good.
December 24th, 2009 at 1:53 am
wow.. god, that was so beautiful..
December 24th, 2009 at 1:56 am
Dope.

December 25th, 2009 at 12:56 pm
This is good stuff, no question. I know I couldn’t make a video of this caliber.
December 25th, 2009 at 1:27 pm
I love the fact that there are no special effects just straight videography. The clip shows originally and clear thinking to meet the object
December 25th, 2009 at 1:37 pm
love the personal touchs in this video. the voice over and the clip where sequenced together like a puzzle. Olan has an artist eye.
December 25th, 2009 at 1:56 pm

December 25th, 2009 at 9:10 pm
Great vid, man. 5 stars.
December 26th, 2009 at 1:19 am
Great use of music and the filmography was dimensional in a way that makes you feel immersed. However the ending was a bit too abrupt.
December 26th, 2009 at 12:09 pm
Great video Olan. You’re getting very good at using different camera angles and styles to make your videos look even better.
December 26th, 2009 at 4:58 pm

take the voiceover a way and it cant stand up.
great vo but below average. hope this isnt popular contest. this is a feeling of coffee comm
January 5th, 2010 at 6:05 pm
Meh. A cliche fusion of 100 cheesy commercials. Adolescent poetry with its typical failings. Seen it.
January 5th, 2010 at 6:09 pm
Great video. Really captures the essence of what matters in life. Good times with good people.
January 5th, 2010 at 7:53 pm
This is a fantastic parody of a student film! At least, I hope it is a parody.

January 6th, 2010 at 6:23 pm
My Lord! I found the video quite average, but how on gods green earth did you manage up 6600 votes? That is unreal! Did you buy a TV ad?
January 6th, 2010 at 9:43 pm
Not a bad video, but I sorry not original. Getting an 80’s MTV vibe.

January 8th, 2010 at 2:05 pm
This was a great concept when I saw it as a Levi’s commercial. At 140 seconds, it oozes pretension.
January 8th, 2010 at 2:09 pm
Poetic. Gave me a chill when the music came up…very nice.
January 8th, 2010 at 3:08 pm

@johnmestrada; You film yourself when you accidentally leave your camera on?? What?!
January 11th, 2010 at 11:19 pm
it’s a good idea, but it gave me a head ache
January 12th, 2010 at 4:28 am
I wish to be as good as you one day. No joke.

way more original than spike lee’s little shadow over there and his original title/score “New York State of Mind”…

Matter of fact i’ve got a better title. How about “New York State of maybe I should do something else w my life”…?

listen, this video is the best. it is hip hop. it’s far better than the scorpion king 2: rise of a warrior. specifically on blu-ray.
