I don't know if I would get too caught up on what's in the briefcase quite yet. Unless you feel good about it. A lot of time people get caught up in the specifics of a story before they even know what the story is about. What are some other things that you imagine happening in this film? What...

Well the basis for a film is the story right? So when writing the story/screenplay, what are some things that go through a writers mind if they know they are writing for an extremely low budget project?

Ok so I have this anxiety about writing a short film because I don't want to right something that can't be shot or would be shot poorly. When talking about a short film on no or low budget, what are some things you guys think about. For instance, how can you make something that's not completely...

Hey all. I just got an interval timer for my T2i and have been experimenting with some different settings. Just wondering if anyone else has experience with this process. My main concerns of course have been keeping my ISO low to reduce noise, keeping my shutter speed quick to avoid "moving...

Does he really know whats contained in the evidence? Perhaps he's trying to sort out what it is he's just made off with and only begins to understand it just as he's being picked up by the cops.

I like your thinking Lucky haha. Literally loled at the dollar behind the refrigerator. Does anyone remember that superhero movie where Kel from Kenan and Kel played a guy who could be invisible but only when no one was looking? Anyway it must have been good for the story because I still...

If you're shooting mostly in the car I'd probably go for a camera with a wide angle lens. Alcove also seems right when talking about how difficult it is to shoot in a moving car. A friend of mine just made a film that had a moving car scene. He wound up filming their conversation from the...

Just read through it real quick so I'll share my thoughts. First thing I would say is that when I took a screenwriting class I was constantly being told to leave camera direction out. This looks more like a shooting script than a screenplay. Not sure if that's what you wanted but its what I saw...

Your idea for the Super Bad style makes me think of the movie "30 mins or less" with Jesse Eisenberg. Alcove Audio has a pretty good idea for figuring out what each characters role is but my advice would be to do something that's not totally expected like a skinny blonde or techy asian character...

hey eraserhead (great movie btw). was wondering if you wound up getting the EnCinema adapter and what you think about using it?

Are there any other major things one should think about when trying to make this rig? I've been looking at the adapter which does look really cool but I'm wondering whether aperture can be adjusted or not. I'm guessing it doesn't which seems like it could cause trouble. Did any of you get the...
