Welcome to the Official Flip DVD website. For the uninitiated, Flip
is a new 15 minute short film shot with a DVX100a. The movie takes place
in Las Vegas, and centers on the relationship between two co-workers who
find themselves married after having a night on the town.
Shot for a budget of less than $3000, Flip was an exercise in
micro-budget filmmaking. The main way the
production crew was able to keep costs down was by shooting on video
with a DVX100a. By shooting with a consumer camera,
the production was able to remain inconspicuous while shooting on
locations (often without a permit).
The DVD release of Flip is truly jam packed with features. Boasting
not one, not two, but six commentary tracks, this disc is a short
filmmakers dream come true. Also included
is an extensive 2+ hour production diary which documents the entire
process of creating Flip. From early rehearsals to shooting in Vegas to
finalizing the edit of the movie, the production diary covers it all.
Also included are eight featurettes covering all aspects of short filmmaking
including: Production Design, Creating the DVD and more! And that's just
a sampling of the special features found on the Flip DVD.
