I'm still working on this. Ironically, it seems that if your Quicktime player displays a question mark it can still play the movie if it is downloaded directly (such as downloading to disk, or selecting the File > Open Url command). My website uses Quicktime alternatives (which selects the...

Well, here's my opinion since I've used the XL-1S, XL2 and DVX. Since you live in the UK, even an older XL-1S is a good option. At 25fps, with it's "fake" movie mode progressive scan, it can be just as cinematic as 24p on XL2/DVX. No one can tell the difference between 25fps and 24fps. Since...

That's what I did not want to hear...:no: Can you please tell me which ones fall into which category? This is very weird. CootDog, are you using QuickTime 7.0.4 as well (also on a PC)?

"Trunk Fiction" is now fixed. The reupload did the job! Anyone else? Some people said they were not able to view any of the videos... I know QuickTime 7 had a lot of bugs. Version 7.0.4 had serious problems (for Mac anyway) and was pulled then re-released. I'm not sure if some people have...

Thank you, knightly. There is indeed a problem with the "Trunk Fiction" video. This seems like a corrupt QuickTime video file on the server. The video loads fine from my local html file, but not the one residing online. This one's new to me so I'm working on it. I will reupload the files...

It was recently brought to my attention that a few people had some difficulty viewing videos on my website. I would like to find the root of this pesky little problem! It would be a big help if you guys could check out my website and let me know if the videos work for you...

The film has been on the shelf for a while now...I think part of me didn't want to accept the fact that nothing else could be done...[damn that camera mic, damn the greenscreen, damn the two week deadline for my slow-poke self...] But all excuses aside, I actually really like how some aspects...

Congrats and good luck! Keep us posted.

If this was a feature that would be a big problem. Christine got the concept right (two women fall in love with the same guy). The girls are not lesbians :) That's why I liked the trailer to be uninformative so you can interpret anything about the characters. [Denis, you're too crazy and too...

King Goldfish, the music is intentional. As with the music comment, some thing are 'different' and not everyone may get them or like them. This is a trailer. You find out the connection between them in the film. There's no slapstick humor in here. I love the idea of having an unfunny...

Boot from your Mac OS CD by holding down the "C" key while your PowerBook starts up. Then open disk utility. There, select your PowerBook's HD and Repair Disk Permissions and Repair the disk. That should fix the missing password promt and other OS mishaps. As for the export, make sure you...

This is the trailer for "Women And The Men They Long For," a short comedy (under 20 minutes). The trailer is a minute and a half (about 5 MB). It can be viewed in QuickTime format on my website: http://www.flaviuman.com/women_and_men.html I served as cinematographer and editor. It features...

A nice thing about Skype is that it has incredible audio quality and it configures itself automatically to work within your network environment (you don't need to forward ports on routers, etc.).

Save a screening for June. I'll be in Ohio... ;)

Listen to Clive, he clearly knows more about audio than I do (although that does not make you very special, Clive :) ) [I wrote that post at 2am, when abviously I should have gone to sleep instead!] Luckely I have my "audio girl" to whom I send my edits. She does the mixing in Protools. I do...
