Shot in the late 1980s and reflects on the early 1990s in San Francisco with a Sankyo cme-666 Super 8 film camera. The camera had a built-in speed control so that I could shoot in a fast speed creating slow-motion or a slow speed creating fast-motion. I did a lot of animation with this camera when I was a teen. The camera could actually focus on an object that touched right against the lens gla...

มุมมอง 26หลายเดือนก่อน
FRUIT CRATE CITY AND ME Alfred Hernandez Fruit Crate City and Me is based on true stories from my and my niece’s childhoods. The film is an allegory for the world that we are all born into (a world both natural and human-made), and how we internalize this complex world as children and act it out through play and creativity. Through her play world, a city made of stacked fruit crates, a young gi...
The Making of Suburban RED - Practical Effects!
มุมมอง 4913 หลายเดือนก่อน
Suburban RED is a project that I worked on while living with and caring for my elderly mother. It was a teaching tool that I used to show various aspects of film production for a cinematic storytelling class that I taught at the Academy of Art in San Francisco. For this class I would bring in examples of the storyboard production, the creation of props and set design and the various stages of e...

Angels Overpass by Alfred Hernandez This short video is part of a video installation piece where the idea was to have various layers of images that show the architecture of nature and of man. I started focusing mostly on the architecture of freeway overpasses as they pull the eye upward when approached. The video screen would contain these images as light and shadow might fall upon the screen a...

That Mission Rising! 1998 Super 8 (silent)
มุมมอง 121ปีที่แล้ว
That Mission Rising! is a film that I made in 1998 in response to a call-for-films through the Artist's Television Access, or ATA - films that are made by people from the Mission, or films about the Mission, "The Mission" - the district that is. Shot in black and white super 8 film. I used about four rolls of film. That is, I shot about 10 minutes of film and edited it down to five. Some images...
Mount Madonna Park - deer Super 8- 1960s
มุมมอง 140ปีที่แล้ว
As kids we called them reindeer and people also thought they were albino deer. On the way to my dad's land in the Santa Cruz Mountains, we would pass through Mount Madonna Park and stop to visit them. Recently there was an article in the San Jose Mercury about the last of them: "The end of an era: The long, lonely days of Mount Madonna’s last white deer" and on CBS "Last doe is all that remains...

San Francisco was normal back then.
Alfred that was great. Thanks. 🌁
Yes, we used to play OUTSIDE all day long in the Bay Area in the 1950s and 1960s! Best times!
Great footage, and also I'm curious about the audio in this video. Very interesting stuff
Thanks, yeah, most comments people don't know what exactly to make of the audio. It's just a collage of sounds in the end, like a wash of sounds from various many sources at once including maybe radio signals from space, birds and the white noise of car radio static or distant traffic.
@AlfredsVisions I was mainly curious if you produced it yourself for the video or not? Either way great video
Speed limit signs with reflecting dots with the black background....and construction zone signs with yellow background...Damm I'm old..Go East Bay. 1967❤
Wonderful film......Thanks!
You were an adult at 21 and your license was in B&W. TRUE. Also, BankAmericaCard had just premiered.
At 7:20 you're looking at some $45,000 houses!!!😢😮
At a little further, at 8:10, the ranch-style one-story houses, my dad bought one for about $19,000 around 1960. It's all about the silicon industry.
A Beautiful Masterpiece that makes me want to stay immersed within its world for a few hours (or days, even, hehe). FANTASTICO! Thanks, Brother
Thanks. I guess I did immerse myself in that world for a few months working on it.
❤️✨
As a kid growing up in the Bay Area in the 1960s and 70s I never knew this place existed.
All the ole victorians were painted white including ours
lindo!!
Love your use of colours!
You should add music and/or narration.
I may do that some day - talk about the images and what was going on in them.
I absolutely loved this. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you, It was a fun time making.
Beautiful
Who knew Red Skull had a love life? Everybody deserves love. Crazy, eh?
He's an archetype for all our longings for and fears of love. I figure. Something deep within, hidden to even us, if I may be so bold - like our own skeletons.
About a month ago I bought a Super 8 film camera with a projector and a complete film and editing kit. I hope that once I have the right electronics, I can create equally beautiful works of art. Such films have always been a great inspiration! Much respect from my side!
Good luck!
That's great. I love that people still like to shoot super 8. It does have a cool look and I like the whole hands--on approach. Home video was coming out at the time but I knew that film would look nicer and so I was willing to put a little money into it.
This looks like one of those terrifyingly creepy soviet cartoons meant for kids, great great stuff
Thank you. I know that an otherly film style was part of what I was going for.
is this actually from the 80s?
I made it in 1984. Shot on Super 8 film.
@@AlfredsVisions it’s insane and cool
*A M A Z I N G ! ! !*
Thank you. One for Halloween.
Yet, another brilliant video! Thoroughly enjoyable and heartwarming, well, heartfelt.
Thank you yet another Al Hernandez, lol.
I recall those days I came to SF sept 1980 nd I'm here LOL
John Lennon said "I was raised in Liverpool but grew up in Hamburg." I feel the same about San Francisco. Those were my early adult years.
wonderful footage but that ambient track you used is the stuff of nightmares....
I chuckle at your comment. Maybe you are right. It's a separate piece of media. I figured I'd just put it up silent then decided to through it on. Didn't feel like doing some "When you're going to San Francisco, be sure to wear flowers in your hair" kind of thing or "I left my heart..." etc. Thanks.
I lived in San Francisco in the early 80s. It really is a wonderful, beautiful city.
Maybe in some places it still resembles this beauty. But mostly it has become a victim of the "woke" mindset.
If you still don't understand why San Francisco got destroyed then you are the problem.
It's funny, people do seem to get baffled by the music and sound. I wanted it to almost be sort of like an unfiltered mental space. A wash of sounds from nature, the city, space perhaps, old car radios, passing dialogue, muffled sounds coming from beyond the walls mixing into dreams and memories. Didn't really matter to me whether it went with the images. The images speak for themselves.
You call it an "unfiltered mental space," while I prefer to call it, "schizophrenia inducing." I guess tomato tomahto 😆
@@pyrotechnick420 I thought the same thing. Schizophrenia is often described, at least for some and unfiltered mind.
cool, but are you brainwashing people with that soundtrack?
Duuuuuuudddeeeeee! Subliminal Pro-Custer forces at play here. Must be his proponents for the upcoming presidential nomination. Wait, what century is it?
This might as well be my home movies. Page Mill Road really got me. My dad would drop us at Foothills Park and let us ride down to the horse rental place before 280. Watching that guy on the ten speed really took me back.
I love that. That's why I wanted to post these clips. And of course you mean before 280 was built. The drive from Sunnyvale to the Santa Cruz Mountains would have taken us via 101 to 17 or Highway 9 to 17 and now there is the straight shot via 85 which wouldn't have been until what, the 90s?
I love to see the artistic process behind a work I find so inspiring. Great work, Alfred!
Hey Greg, good to hear from you and I like your profile picture. Thanks, I often felt, even as I was working on Suburban RED that the making of it might be more interesting because often with my work it is the behind the scenes techniques and circumstances that are intriguing. Process vs. product as they say.
how does this have 0 comments? i mean seriously the love and attention this was given this is what art is all about!
Thank you. Clearly its not for everyone I guess, yet neither are the stars and the moon.
What a gem of a video ❤ wow dude amazing work
Thank you. I heard a great description of the word amateur. It comes from "loving" what we do and I've tried to bring love into it and a lot of time.
amazing work cousin
Thank you Joe. Living in Sacramento now.
Cool to see what goes behind the scenes!
Terrible video
Now the whole Bay Area is one big stinking ghetto shithole.
Pruneyard Towers being built at 8:39
Nice video transfer. You can almost see the film grain and I couldn't detect video dropped frames. So many film transfers are blurry and compressed to death. Likely those master films are then thrown out.
I used a machine called a Wolverine to do the transfers myself.
Super 8 was invented after 1965. If you apply stabilisation use the white hole on the left side as a target.
The only thing missing were shots of Frontier Village. 😉
For that, you can check this video out - th-cam.com/video/lVtq45B4KN8/w-d-xo.html
@@AlfredsVisions Awesome! I spent many of a childhood birthday there. Thank you for sharing.
That's me on my bike. In front of store 1968.
That's pretty cool. I know that someone recognized their car on Mary Ave.
And the creepy background noise is so Revolution #9. Turn me on dead man. LOL!
That's funny, I get it.
Just discovered Mt Madonna Park couple years ago. Wondered when those old deer pens actually housed deer. Glad I stumbled upon your post. Thx
How beautiful. 😢❤❤ I can’t find the words so emojis will have to do.
San Jose native, born in 1954, this is great, thank you for sharing! Miss the old days!
I was born in 1954 too. But in the city of San Francisco. My mother always took us down to the San Jose flea market and then we'd always have dinner at San Jose Joe's
Thank you Alfred for sharing this special family memory! Frontier Village was so special to me. Somewhere in a photo album, there is a picture that my father took of me at 4 years old, my older sister Veronica and my mom posing with Tumbleweed 😅 I was 11 years old when they closed for good...We went every summer...so many fond memories ❤ once again👍👍👍 Thank you
Thank you Mike. Yes, these kinds of things become iconic in our lives as we grow up and then suddenly they are gone. It's been good to share these images with others who also have good memories of being there.
A life dedicated to the love her children and God. A long life 96, well lived.
Jimi shows up in her dreams, Sounds like it really happend?. I remember women always find jimi atractive. I had huge posters of jimi back early eighties. The worst, but girls my age didnt say anyhing bad upon seeing jim hendrix. I had the good ones, We used to listen to B side in Nine to the universe after hours. But they were open minded. Although kids my age were starting to takk shit on jimi hendrix, anything sixties.
