Right now theres anot alot of content on it, just the main page and the getting started (which still has alot of editing needed). Its going to have a little bit of everything but its main purpose will be for cinematography, special effects and post production editing tutorials... as well as a...

well I probably use youtube for the actual show, maybe for getting the word out about it though. it might have it own website im not sure yet. and ill be funding it.

ok I was brain storming the other day and I got what I think is a pretty neat idea for the next big internet hit! eveyone that reads this please post... i've been tryin to get somefeedback on this idea on some other sites but all they do is keep deleting my post. anyway... onward so here's the...

it is my own site, but not a discussion one lol. Its mainly going to be a resource site for how to do effects(and other things) for dirt cheap, and some expensive ones if you have the cash to spring for it. BTW is it ok to post a detailed plan for an online show I had to see if people think it...

is there anywhere one the site its ok to post a link to another website for critiqueing?

Hope I'm posting this in the right place. I did some looking around online for cameras and found a site where brand new dvx100b's are going for $749.00. Somethings fishy about it because at other sites there listed for over 2 grand so I was wondering if this is legit or most likely a scam? Or...

Spinner - check this clip out. I'm gonna use this guys method for the building explosion. I think its a pretty awesome result. EDIT* how do you embed youtube videos? WV - Yeah either way I'm gonna have to add the sounds. Hopfully it's not to hard. The major problem with airsoft guns though is...

haha no I'm not overlooking it. I'd be stupid to overlook advice that good. I just didn't mention it cause I figured nobody really cares about little projects... but I'm going to do three smaller films about 12-15 minutes long before I try to do the big one. There going to be a sort of test and...

Wideshot - I thought film cameras were way more expensive than video cams? or maybe its just the price of film itself that makes video the better option? And I was basically just asking what I could do to get an end product that resembled something that came out of hollywood. Which I've pretty...

It means that I'm not new to making movies in a general sense. I have a sony handycam and you can record movies/videos (whatever you wanna call them) on it. And I do that all the time. So it's not like I've never picked up a camera before and shot something. BUT, I am NEW to all the equipment...

All you guys points have been seriously taken into consideration. Thanks for the replys and info. WV - You mentioned the dvx100, after doing some looking around I think thats the camera I'm going to go with. Well it is a bit pricey, so thats if I get the money for it. Knightly - Thanks, first...

last week I shot a teaser trailer for the project direct contest on youtube. Since its on youtube, figured I'd post it here. Its a little shaky. Budget: $0 Filming time: 1 hour. Post time: 2 hours. Camera: sony handy cam dsc-h2. WARNING: By clicking the link you consent to be subject to...

Wow thats more info than I could of ever hoped for man! thanks a TON! Need to point out a few other things though that you touched on. First the guns and car chases. I really can't get around either one of those, this is a hardcore action movie. Think Die hard meets the bourne ultimatum meets...

Alright so I've always been interested in movies and how to make one. A good one. no, scratch that, a GREAT one. I had a dillema though, I didn't know what to make it about. Well a couple weeks ago somebody told me about a story they came up with and its BRILLIANT! So I said hey lets make that...

Hey guys, I'm new here. And I've got a lot of questions about a movie I'm planning on making in about 8 weeks. You'll probably see alot of my posts around here shortly.
