    watch Peanuts of Unshelled Dreams - Short Comedy

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=79wohX3tRcM I filmed this short as a small satire of those deeply dramatized, moving short films that always win awards. Whenever I watch many of those films, this is what I actually feel like I'm watching, in a way. I hope somebody gets at least a small chuckle...

    What to do

    The one about the 6 friends getting superpowers sounds cool if you give it some time to breath (like, I'm guessing around 10 minutes for the final product, maybe) and character-driven. Like, you can establish their friendships and whatnot and show how the powers take that away from them. Here...

    Having trouble with first draft, help?

    I don't know how to delete a post, so just..ignore this. My bad haha.

    Having trouble with first draft, help?

    FantasySciFi, I sent you a private message, but for some reason it doesn't say that I did. Did you get it? If you didn't, I took everything you said about the script, and changed it accordingly. I really liked your ideas, and they helped me a lot. But now when I read the script, it seems...

    Having trouble with first draft, help?

    I'm going to make a short film for a film festival, but I'm having some problems, and I'm not sure how to address them. I want this film to have one central theme: that all problems in life are trivial, and especially, TEMPORARY. That most problems in life won't last forever and you shouldn't...

    Need help with story/character development!

    First of all, I think this is a great idea. I was literally smiling reading it, imagining the scene play out in my head. And, well, this seems like you should make it character based, just a bit. Write about these characters, don't just make them brainless cliches. After you write a little...

    Help writing character?

    Thank you for your suggestions! You're right, and I've taken your advice for some (I would feel bad stealing all of your ideas!) of what you've said. I shifted the focus of the video (well, I'm rewriting it right now, so I'm SHIFTING the focus) to mainly show the relationship between the best...

    Help writing character?

    I have to write a 5 minute (it can't be even a tiny bit over 5 minutes) short film for this film program class thing I'm in. I'm writing a draft right now loosely based on some small depression I've currently been having. My problem with this (1st draft) script is that, I feel like it rushes by...

    watch Snickers Commercial

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YqNKU6hTpP4 This was for my friend's project, she had to make a commercial under 3 minutes about any topic. I know the acting isn't great, and we had to use a crap camera (time restraints), and there are a couple awkward edits. All that matters is, do you guys...

    watch Really Bad Audition

    I like the idea of this. However, a few suggestions: The audition just lasts too long. It stops being funny about halfway through. I'd rather watch the video if it was a minute long, it would be tighter and funnier throughout. The back-scratch joke..I just don't see that as being funny. I...

    watch Presenting MAN MAN (full short sketch)

    No no, I really appreciated this post. I was kicking myself reading it, you're right! I was laughing the entire way through. That is true, the fact that he solved average problems kind of ruined the joke. If I could go back and remake this video with your suggestion, I would. Thank you for...

    watch Presenting MAN MAN (full short sketch)

    It's all good, no need to apologize. But what could I have done to improve it? Or is it just not funny, period? I just want more insight on what could have been done to improve it, but I appreciate the honesty.

    watch Presenting MAN MAN (full short sketch)

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tVizgS6843M I'm a student filmmaker, well I mean aspiring filmmaker. I've been making tiny little Youtube sketches for two years and this is my first finished "professional" sketch (I made it with a theater next to my school). Any thoughts? When I look back at it...
