Some great information here. Thanks everyone...even though I didn't ask the original question... I just opened up a new wedding videography company, but I'm going to have a sister production company pretty soon.

Hello gents, I've been toying around with "render farming" with after effects with a couple old PC's I have. I've figured out how to do it, but what do I do with all these PSD files? How do I make them back into video?

Commercial or trailer?

Oak, Most footage was native 16:9, there was a few shots that was converted from 4:3 for the demo. That being said, I'm not sure what the issue would be...hmm. I don't personally notice it, but that don't mean nothing. Spinner, Check your PM in a sec. Also, to answer your question: We...

Hey guys, My company just got a demo done of some of the stuff we did last year. Check it out, tell me what to think! Feel free to not hold back any punches ;) http://www.maefilms.com/mae_demo.html

How big of lights you talking? We have battery powered lights attached to poles that are good for up to 5 feet away. We use them when we have to tape dark bars or places of that nature, where being portable and not having a cord plugged into a wall and tripping someone is important. But...

LOL @ the picture of the cup. That's something you could test by yourself in 10 seconds. I'm not 100% sure what it will do, but I don't think your going to get desired results. However, if you have 2 cans and a string, I have an idea....

Ah...well in that case, go ahead and just do it. Depending on what your trying to do with it, it won't be that bad. From your first post I thought you were getting one like the next weekend or something :D

Who the heck thought I <3 Huckabee's had a great story? I wanted to like it, but there's a difference between quirky and just plain weird. It was plain weird. And not entertainingly weird. :(

Half of a movie is sound. Your original question wasn't whether or not you should shoot it or not, it was if your on-camera mic is good enough. If your ordering a mic anyways, why not wait to do it right? /Sells his 2 pennies for 2.01 cents.

I live right outside of Flint, and work right outside of Detroit. I get the best of both worlds. And an hour commute :(

If you know how to do keyframes, motion isn't an issue really. Just time consuming is all. If you don't know how to keyframe, it's a perfect time to learn ;) You might want to just blur out Detroit in general :p

"I have Final Cut Pro, is there a quick way -- well, nothing is quick...or easy, but how can I blur out a section of the marquee without blurring the entire picture? Can I do this through FCP?" I have never user final cut, so I'm sure there's an easier way, but you could always make a copy of...

You stole my thoughts!

Don't do it! Don't you dare do it! The sound variance(volume, hollowness, room tone) between different shots will annoy your viewer! Especially if you do a lot of different shots.
