    Write To Your Budget With Quentin Tarantino

    I know this has probably been dropped here before, but it bears repeating. Backstory - Reservoir Dogs had its entire heist scene axed, though the movie still worked. Becauseeeeee, Tarantino wrote to his budget. He didn't try to fake a scene he knew he wouldn't have the money for. More advice...

    Best Car Chases

    This is a tricky one. Not the best filmed car chases, but the best written. I've heard good things about Bullitt, which I love. Help a writer out with some scripts to catch up on.

    > Screenplay Fodder: News That Should Inspire!

    I just laughed out loud in public. Thanks for that.

    Should I choose such a setting?

    Yeah, pretty much the above. If it makes sense to the story, go for it. Da Vinci Code, with it's uber-important artifacts, does better in large cities. If it's something like Bonnie and Clyde, robbing banks, it doesn't matter so much. I think we'd all need more actual info on the story to...

    Just for Kicks - Superhero Movies

    YOU SIR. Seriously - if Gaiman was on board, I'd be a gofer for that shooting. I'd kill to see Sandman. They could make it episodic a-la Hitckcock Presents or TZ, so no worries about continuity. ---- Forgot I started this, oddly. Oops. Anyway, here's mine. (And this will give you an idea of...

    Sound on the Cheap

    You'd be surprised. Boom mics would be a negative, but shotgun mics and recorders are common among the musical types I know (including myself normally, but my Boss Micro BR isn't going to cut it. Two tracks, no usable mic). Also quite a few who do church gigs, thus lav mics being available if...

    Man Of Steel Thoughts *SPOILER ALERT*

    Clarification - the 80s-ish one or the new one? Because the old one sucked real bad. Oddly, I didn't catch the movie (yet), but I've been following the reviews. They seem to fall into two categories - 1) I've never really read the comics - Thumbs up! 2) Total fanboy - Thumbs down! I...

    Just for Kicks - Superhero Movies

    Like it says on the can - just for kicks, if you could make a superhero movie that hasn't been done recently what would you make? And be detailed about it. At least say who you'd cast! Let's assume you have all the bells and whistles. Billion dollar budget, whatever cast, so forth.

    music in indie films

    That's like saying "you can easily make your own film! That's right. I went there. Seriously though - don't bank on throwing something together in Garageband and NOT having it sound like crap if you haven't: 1) Used it fairly extensively 2) Have decent stuff to line in to the computer itself...

    Sound on the Cheap

    Question time - I'm needing a low budget solution for a project I'm working on (for the audio side. I've gotten most of my other gear secured). Project details below, then question. Format: Web series ERT: 4-6 min/ep Cast: 4 (right now, give or take 1 per episode) Set: 1 (possibly 2 a bit...

    Need Screenwriting Advice Please

    +1 to all of this. Hell, if I could hug this post, I would. In the aspect of using as many scenes as necessary - that's my philosophy for both fiction and screenwriting. Use too much and you're bloating the story. Start doing that, and it's hard to keep it flowing. But my two cents on the...

    Best Methods for Distributing Films Online?

    I actually have a similar dilema. Right now, I'm working out whether my long term plan for my current project will be distributed via YouTube or Vimeo (It's essentially a pilot for a possibly longer/different format series, and mostly just for fun while I try out some stuff). But yeah, it's...
