Welcome to the forums. And I have 3 words for ya: Dryer Lint Screen!

I found an interesting tutorial on some of the techie side of filming and sound equipment. Learned a bit about recording sound, although certainly not enough. Bought a new tripod. Not a very expensive one but not a totally cheapo either. Next step up will be a fluid head set up. Combed the...

I suppose you can find some good temp tattoos. Not sure how big of ones you need. OR...you could cast someone like me who has half sleeves! :wink: Good luck on that and it's good to see some roles that us " tattooed folks " can get hehe.

Welcome to the site Mr. Harris. I too am new to the industry and cannot stay away from this site. Glad to have ya!

Thanks Boo. I didnt plan on recording the sound separate while shooting video. I just want to learn the basics of how it's done as I am clueless to the whole process. I was going to look for a reasonably priced mic to plug into the external jack and go that route tho. In the near future I...

Ok prolly a stupid question here. I have an older sony Hi8 camcorder. If I were to shoot anything on this, is there a way to even edit it at all? The only connection jacks it has are the two RCA sound and video jacks and an RFU connector jack. Also, I'm looking for an article or tutorial that...

Ok, I am about to embark on my first attempts at shorts and the process of really learning. I have an older Sony Hi8 camcorder but I have been also thinking of other cameras. I have been looking at Super8 cameras on Ebay and checking the local flea markets and such for them in the area. But I...

I would gladly do anything that would be needed. I am more interested in the technical side of filmmaking (camera, lighting, sound, etc...) but would be willing to take on any roll so as to better learn the whole gamut. I am currently in Jacksonville, Florida.

Very informational site. Thank ya much. Although it seems that Jacksonville is not the place to find much in the biz. hehe.

Excellent suggestions. I will get rolling on the networking very soon. I'm looking forward to working on any project I can even if I'm just coming equipped with Duct Tape!

"Only two things come from Texas...." shall I continue? :wink: Thanks for the great welcomes all. Glad to be here and I'm learning a lot from you all! J.J.

Ok forgive my severe newness to the industry but I am looking to get all the experience I can. Being older with a family and no funds, film school proper is out of the question for me. I have been reading all the books and on-line material that my eyes can take and I bought a cheap vid camera...

I am looking to help out on any films that may be happening in the NE FLorida / SE Georgia area. I am new to the industry and learning all that I can. I am willing to work for free at any position to better my knowledge of the entire trade and to have some fun! I am very creative and...

Good day all and well met! Just wanted to introduce myself and say hello to all. I am just starting to explore the film industry. I'm a bit older and have finally decided that film is what I am supposed to do. I am very much interested in cinematography but directing, screenwriting and...
