Boyhood? I'm glad someone liked it, interesting concept but I thought it was severely painful.

I like it!

Das Boot From Here to Eternity The Wizard of Oz 500 Days of Summer Twelve O'Clock High Shopgirl Cinema Paradiso Goodfellas To Kill a Mockingbird The Deep Blue Sea Not in that order, but films I can watch more than once.

Kramer is one smooth guy. I can't remember anyone I know that has had real success with an agent. One guy that I know made it to a meeting in Hollywood all expenses paid, but the whole deal got canned. Agents might be in the same category as a lawyer fighting your parking ticket; sometimes it's...

I was somewhat referring to moving across the street as mentioned above. I just wouldn't have wasted the effort in moving the equipment and such for a shot that could be taken on the same side of the street given different angles, close-ups, pans, and zooms. Time is money regardless of the...

Low power may affect it, battery packs and generator power more frequently than standard power. Not a bad idea to check voltages at the location before the shoot. So if one camera performed well and the others didn't, I would look there. If running all on the same power source maybe it was...

Very true!

A good storyboard can usually prevent these mishaps.

Okay, if moving it can happen as you say. Why anyone would shoot that is beyond me, however, depending on the shot, it might still work and not confuse the viewer. Close-up with various angles perhaps.

Technically you can't break the 180-degree rule with one person, per-say, if it is a rule breaker than it is an acceptable one often called a flip. Once the second person enters the room, it becomes possible if you start moving the camera from either side of the two actors. No reason to do that...

In the film Witness the murder took place in a men's bathroom.

Were you using standard AC power?

I was thinking the same. Very good advice!

Interesting thread, I love walking on eggshells. :lol: Here is the problem, once they went from client to friends they felt like they could provide a little more control. This is one of the reasons why I will not work for free even if it turns into a paid gig. A small retainer from the...

A few months ago I did shoot a doc on a 1/3 sensor. Watched it on a large screen and no one noticed, it wasn't that bad. Would I do it again? Depends on what I'm trying to achieve. Here is a little comparison for fun, notice the sensor diagram...

I forget the name of the indie film, but it was shot on a VHS Camcorder. I thought the film was pretty bad and confusing; however, the cinematography was actually pretty good even when projected onto a large theater screen. The filmmakers were asked about this choice and they claimed they wanted...

I have several paid positions available. From Director on down. PM me!

Just what I was looking for, thanks!
