Non Linear
Loading ...Two days after losing my job, I find myself in a creative slump. With a demo reel to edit and a sea of footage to sift through, I struggle to find a good starting point. This video explores my creative process from sart t finish.

Like this … interesting perspective; real
December 16th, 2009 at 1:36 am
Is this through a Holga lens or something, I like the look of it, very unique.
December 16th, 2009 at 1:45 am
Thanks! I guess my only regret is that I didn’t get fired a day or two sooner so I could have spent more time on this….
December 16th, 2009 at 11:34 am
I built the optics myself. THey are custom. This is actually a Nikon 50mm prime….on the front of a bunch of other stuff
December 16th, 2009 at 12:07 pm
Hey, I’ve got like 4 cats at my house if you want one.
Oh yeah, and the video was slick.
Was that your voice?
December 16th, 2009 at 12:29 pm
This is the best video on here! The concept is one all creative people can relate to…having to “pay your dues” to get to your dream!Great!
December 16th, 2009 at 1:15 pm
You are so talented…love this!!
December 16th, 2009 at 2:24 pm
I’m loving it. It’s real, and competent, and wise
December 16th, 2009 at 2:51 pm
That was excellent. I thoroughly enjoyed it.
December 16th, 2009 at 3:35 pm
very good job….nice editing and shooting
December 16th, 2009 at 3:48 pm
Hannah, That is cool! You are so gifted. -jamie

This won’t make a difference in terms of this contest but I added some things since: http://www.vimeo.com/8222809
December 16th, 2009 at 6:02 pm
Amazing what the world does to us!!
December 16th, 2009 at 8:33 pm
I wish I had even half your talent!
December 16th, 2009 at 8:44 pm
I love the scene where you are typing then pull your fingers back…surprisingly expressive.
December 16th, 2009 at 11:03 pm
i’m totally feeling you through the whole thing…i’m left with a feeling of emptiness, acceptance of reality, and hope all at the same time
December 17th, 2009 at 8:48 am
That is really great! I like the entire process of your waking up, making coffee, going out, it is really great. Good job and good luck!
December 17th, 2009 at 11:30 am
This is so unique and witty. Very fun to watch and wanted more when it ended
December 17th, 2009 at 11:44 pm
This is great, Hannah. Love the perspective and your passion and artistry really shine. Nice job! “Oh the places you’ll go!”
December 22nd, 2009 at 3:10 am
Great Job Hannah!
December 22nd, 2009 at 3:29 am
Really great job Hannah! Loved it.
December 22nd, 2009 at 4:18 am
Yes. This should win. This has something intangible that I fully grasp.
December 22nd, 2009 at 8:35 am
I can totally relate to your video…great perspective on life…
December 22nd, 2009 at 9:12 am
This is great, Hannah. I love the whole thing. Great job!
December 22nd, 2009 at 9:37 am
So many looked to find inspiration in other people, or in inspirational locations. You found yours in yourself.
I’m inspired!
December 22nd, 2009 at 10:06 am
The best one I’ve seen. Unique and beautifully shot. Really nails the struggle of the independent filmmaker.
December 22nd, 2009 at 10:29 am
Love it!
December 22nd, 2009 at 10:43 am
Great film, clearly conveys the morning condition.
December 22nd, 2009 at 10:51 am
excellent, witty and a wonderful soulful quality
I must say amplified by your current employment status.
Outside the box.
December 22nd, 2009 at 11:14 am
quite artistically created, simplistic yet unique. Always amazing to view someone’s perspective in life. I loved it! Keep going Hanna!
December 22nd, 2009 at 11:23 am
Hannah, you are VERY talented, this is wonderful! Congrats!
December 22nd, 2009 at 11:24 am
This is beautiful, Hannah. Keep up the good work!
December 22nd, 2009 at 11:25 am
Great job. I really enjoyed this. Good luck.
December 22nd, 2009 at 11:32 am
Excellent, Hannah. Loved it.
December 22nd, 2009 at 11:38 am
“Non Linear” is inventive, clever, wonderfully shot and moving. This theme hits home to many. We were lucky to get you for “SoP” when we did
December 22nd, 2009 at 12:02 pm
Awesome work Hannah! I loved the ending when you’re walking around with your films!
December 22nd, 2009 at 12:05 pm
Awesome. This is a really beautiful piece.
December 22nd, 2009 at 12:30 pm
Shot selection, lighting, vantage points, choice of focus, imagery, editing–all spot on. Narrative is tight, moody, emotionally rich. Nice!

From the first few seconds this video captured my attention. You conveyed a mood through pictures without stating a word! Excellent video!!
December 22nd, 2009 at 12:38 pm
Hey - where’d you get your boots?
Will check you out on Vimeo…
December 22nd, 2009 at 12:58 pm

December 22nd, 2009 at 1:20 pm

December 22nd, 2009 at 1:33 pm
Hannah, you’re awesome! So are your cats!
December 22nd, 2009 at 1:55 pm
Being unemployed also, I feel you captured the thoughts I have every day. Love the angles and perspective. Five stars!
December 22nd, 2009 at 2:27 pm
I love how you portray how your creative aspect is a part of you and it’s with you regardless of where you go.
December 22nd, 2009 at 2:47 pm
sweet! you’re in the top 50…you go girl!!!
December 22nd, 2009 at 2:52 pm
simply put: great!
December 22nd, 2009 at 2:55 pm
Every dark cloud has a silver lining. It is just amazing how a cinematographer thinks. SILVER LINING!!!
December 22nd, 2009 at 4:16 pm
priceless!
December 22nd, 2009 at 4:18 pm
While creatives relate, I think anyone with passion for their work who has been tossed out can also. Finding the will to start again.
December 22nd, 2009 at 4:19 pm
I also like the perspective that there are people in worse situations, but that doesn’t mean yours doesn’t suck.
December 22nd, 2009 at 5:42 pm
Loved the feel of it, thoughtful and so true. Nicely done!
December 22nd, 2009 at 6:26 pm
Very intriguing! I found myself mesmerized and wanting more. More Please!!!

You’ve nailed what it’s like to work a day job and have to work on your real aspiration as a side line. It is scary to lose the joe job.
December 22nd, 2009 at 11:39 pm
Love it!
December 23rd, 2009 at 6:15 pm
I really really got into this vid…I don’t think it will win but you did a great job.

December 24th, 2009 at 5:52 pm
the movie gave me thoughts and feelings
December 24th, 2009 at 7:21 pm
Your message is so depressing. Now I know why you don’t have a job.
December 24th, 2009 at 10:03 pm
Watch our Hollywood here comes Hannah!!
December 24th, 2009 at 11:28 pm
love this, saw a clip on tv news, watched it. Inspiring for all of us who think we don’t have anything to say.
December 24th, 2009 at 11:56 pm
awesome hannah
December 25th, 2009 at 1:23 am
Nice work!
December 25th, 2009 at 1:49 am
I’m 74, however I appreciate Hannah’s approach to this video.
December 25th, 2009 at 2:19 am
Very few contests end up actually helping talented people as opposed to being a vanity skirmish. This one can help, spectacularly.
December 25th, 2009 at 2:26 am
awesome to see you on the news tonight!
December 25th, 2009 at 8:54 am
Student46, so finding inspiration in yourself is depressing? I think you missed the point…
December 25th, 2009 at 10:12 am
Congratulations Hannah! What a great, timely message.
December 25th, 2009 at 11:20 am
Really, REALLY well done!!! Beautifully filmed!! I love it!!

Win! Five stars!
December 25th, 2009 at 10:14 pm
My favorite part of this video is your hands and how they pull away from the keyboard. It is so expressive and truthful.
December 25th, 2009 at 11:50 pm
Adam Hofbauer says yes. Way to be on the news and in the running.
December 26th, 2009 at 12:28 pm
You spent to much time feeling sorry for yourself, you didn’t leave enough time for your total creative talents to fully shine through.
December 26th, 2009 at 12:44 pm
Great video!! You are very talented!!
December 26th, 2009 at 3:58 pm
Brilliant!
December 26th, 2009 at 7:36 pm
Very moving and thought provoking. Love it.
December 27th, 2009 at 7:40 pm
Beautifully shot! Are cats going to be a running theme;) I so hope you win! Bon Chance!
December 27th, 2009 at 11:35 pm

Interesting approach, non linear, with positive thinking and good vibes. Works for me
December 28th, 2009 at 1:39 pm
excellent effort!!! going on to greatness!
December 28th, 2009 at 3:37 pm
student46, the theme of this is not my underlining creativity, it’s the struggle to keep my head above water. You missed the point.
December 28th, 2009 at 6:34 pm
I love it. The struggle of an artist. Awesome. Beautiful. Love the angles, too.
December 28th, 2009 at 6:36 pm
hannah, you’ve come a long way since the days of the cosmetology head, haha- this is REALLY cool
December 28th, 2009 at 6:43 pm

December 29th, 2009 at 4:09 am
Hannah, you just told my story! Lost my job last January… took my severance, bought some gear and a Mac and I’m now a freelance filmmaker!
December 29th, 2009 at 4:11 am
p.s. I can totally relate to trying to keep my head above water
December 30th, 2009 at 1:39 pm
Doesn’t suck! Didn’t hate it! Better than CATS!
December 31st, 2009 at 2:37 pm
Took me on a nice ride…liked the escape, the reality, the intimacy. Well done, sister!
January 1st, 2010 at 12:22 am
Liked this view of your world at this time, seen thru your lens;we don’t have all the pieces, together, all the time but we keep trying
January 5th, 2010 at 2:48 pm

Well done Hannah! As a fellow filmmaker who often feels the same emotions this video is inspiring + motivating. I wish you all the best. 5*!
January 7th, 2010 at 2:11 pm
I’m out of a job and I can relate.
January 8th, 2010 at 1:36 pm

January 10th, 2010 at 3:52 pm
It’s simply beautiful, full of grâce, just a wonderful little moment
