Bismillah,
HIPURductions was interviewed for The Muslim Link, a newspaper that serves the Washington DC area Muslims. We talked about our upcoming 3D film that will be premiering at the ISNA convention in Chicago in July inshaAllah. Here is the article.
The Muslim Link Paper is published every other week on Fridays and distributed throughout the Washington and Baltimore Metropolitan Areas. TML is based at Dar-us-Salaam in College Park, Maryland, USA.

We have, Alhamdulillah, completed Principal Photography on the short film Leap of Faith (LoF) on April 26th . This means we finished our initial filming of the movie. During Post Production (editing the movie) it may become clear certain shots may be missing so we would have to re-shoot a few things or if we film new things that are necessary, it would be referred to as “Pick-ups”. Here are a few screen captures of the film. Enjoy.
Here are a couple of screen captures that demonstrate the 3D aspect of the film. These can be viewed with the “cross-eyed” method as explained HERE
Bismillah,
We have recently been investigating the use of the Canon 7D as a 3D solution for our Leap of Faith short film. The 3D tech on the movie, Rami Santrisi, came up with a white paper in an attempt to layout the possibilities of using the 7D optimally if used as a stereo capture device. We are talking about using two Canon 7D’s attached in some way to enable this kind of capture. Here is the white paper:
White paper on using the Canon 7D as a stereoscopic 3D Camera
As for which route we end up taking, that will depend on further testing. As of right now, Option #3 is the most optimal without any loss of resolution, but complete loss of access to the video feeds from either camera. The DP for the film will be assessing the impacts of using these options and moving forward with what he thinks would work best for the film. As always, we’ll try to keep you updated. Peace.

We are very excited here at HIPUR for our upcoming short film: Leap of Faith. It is a short about an acrophobic man who needs to overcome his fears. This movie inshaAllah will be in Stereoscopic 3D–or S3D.
Due to our director traveling, we had to push back production a few weeks from our original dates–end of March. We will be shooting the movie
April 23rd through April 27th
God willing, with the 28th and 29th as backups for any re-shoots we may need. If you are in Maryland and would like to come and see what it’s all about, we do have room for 2-3 individuals to come and view the process. We also have 3 PA positions if anyone is interested. PA is Production Assistant, and would help out in various ways with whatever is necessary for things that need to get done and doesn’t require any previous experience.

Bismillah,
So we’ve been consistently bringing you a live feed of the tafseer that Bayyinah founder Nouman Ali Khan has, every week since April of 2009. We’ve broadcast every week that Br. Nouman has had the class alhamdulillah right here. It has been 10 months since we started on April 14th and we are still going strong. Juzu’ Amma will be finishing fairly soon so tune in for the last few sessions of this amazing part of the Quran, for a tafseer that is, to say the least, worth every minute. For those who faithfully tune in every week, we do hope you enjoy the Tafseer and benefit from it. If you have a minute, drop us a note and tell us what you think.
