    shysters

    I am not sure the point of this post. Yesterday the talk was two things: The reality show and the closing down of a landmark. No one knew that the two were linked...linked by one person... yeah it sounds like a reality show in and of itself but isn't tv full of them anyway? So how does a...

    shysters

    There is a reality show in town...this is true. The reality show producer was at a party for an 'A' list actor and this producer of this reality show met up with someone who was working at the party (a staffer aka the shyster). The shyster owns a small business in the city and has a reputation...

    watch Looking for feedback...merci

    Well my ultimate goal would be to do that but in this I was really experimenting with something very small because I was really trying to learn how to edit. I haven't edited anything before aside from something I did for local tv that was about the local towns here... Now I don't know what you...

    watch Looking for feedback...merci

    Thanks for the time....can you be specific? I was trying to do something with a little of everything involved ... that included vo/telephone conversation and so on. Its a learning short for me....so if you can just point out a few or more things that are crap (for lack of a better word at...

    If you go to www.youtube.com/crosbylanding I have one video posted there that I actually posted a while ago...but went on holiday before I had a chance to post its info on here. I tried to experiment with everything...sound effects/v.o./sound/lighting ect. I had the biggest issue with lighting...

    No more cheap mics

    I think it does make sense to know wtf I am doing beforehand. Its just this mic started out well and good (its an item from a place that loans these out free like a library...but they are well used). Then it didn't record anything. Changed batteries. Right now what I am trying to do is film...

    No more cheap mics

    Okay I have had it with cheap mics. The ones I can use range up to 50 dollars. Even changing the batteries doesn't help much. You tilt it a little to the right or left and it doesn't pickup anything and it sounds like the person is in the next room. I resorted to the camera mic - because that...

    watch Two Minute London-Based Romance :)

    I thought that was very well done. A little camera shakiness...and I would have loved the ending a bit longer - you know, the girl walking away and then lost into the crowd (not too much longer but long enough so that she becomes one of many people)

    Green screen/white screen/red...

    I was watching highlights of some cheap, homegrown crappy movie that is pure special effects. In one scene a guy is seated down somewhere and gets attacked by a monster and you can see the shadow of the actors body . I looked it up on youtube and one of the guys stated on there not to get too...

    tungsten and fluorescent lighting

    I checked out Kinos. Right now they would be too high for me..thanks as it is something in the future I can checkout. I guess I can spend up to $200 on some basic light kit. Something for use in a basement. As far as bulbs...outside of the worklight I have...I am using 100w because that is the...

    tungsten and fluorescent lighting

    A lot to learn! Thanks. Can anyone recommend a light kit for indoor use (and a little outdoor too)? I am using the worklights but am limited because I wanted to use an umberella to stop the light bouncing off the walls... I am using worklights which are too hot and strong...I don't want anything...

    tungsten and fluorescent lighting

    I have that personality trait. The thing is, I am learning the importance of each part in film making as I go along. To be frank, I initially thought the most important thing was the camera but am learning that that actually is the least important. I could make do with any camera so long as the...

    tungsten and fluorescent lighting

    What is the difference? What is mostly used overall? If you wanted to invest in something inexpensive and safe for indoor use...and also outdoor. If you were using it to shoot people (sounds terrible). Merci.

    watch "Just a Minute" Short Documentary Films.

    I seem to have trouble getting anything from Vimeo but from what I could get... The sound on your mother and uncle was echoy and sounded like it was a video recording. I would have preferred it if your mother were actually speaking on camera or showing clips of something in the past rather than...
