    Collin movie, sounds like a real inspiration

    I like this success story as it makes everything seem that bit more real that you can make a film and it be a hit. I know that it takes more than just good ideas, but when Tarantino made my best friends birthday he showed great tallent even back then in BW, the audio for that film had to be re...

    Thankyou Smith for that, The boom mic was done by somone who had not done this before, I kind of just threw it on them. I actually after found it easier to do the boom and shoot at the same time, problem I had with my home made boom was that when people use it they tended to made too much...

    sound questions on Recording sound, fx etc

    Im afraid that link doesnt work Alcove. I am shooting on sunday and i just need to get my head round these basic concepts: I am using Sony Vegas Pro, is this right. If I have one boom mic, do i record dialogue in mono and then the room tone in stereo, the room tone is there because when i...

    sound questions on Recording sound, fx etc

    Alcove audio, Thanks for the info, yes my spelling isnt that great but to be fair I was quite tiered when I wrote that. The mic I am using is external, it is a condenser shotgun mic made by Yoga, it was quite cheap off ebay. As you can probably guess buget is low here, so I shall be trying my...

    Just watched episode 2, well done with that. I think maybe the sound on the voices needs to be more upfront, if you know what i mean. WHat mic you using?

    archived-videos The Revolver

    Im no pro director, but in my opinion i think if you dont know what title to use or do not have the title you want just simply use white text with a basic times new roman font (or any standard) on a black backgorund., if you want a serious start. Regarding the gun sound, i found a few on a...

    Improv is great fun, the first 2 shorts i did were improvised by myself and another person. Its always good to have some sort of idea what your going to do though. I would of liked the hv20 however didnt have enough so had to get the fs100 instead. Not as good but is better than my old compact...

    archived-videos The Revolver

    Nice work, I liked the atmosphere of the opening of the case, music went well with that. Some good camera angels of the eyes and gun. Wasnt too keen on the intro text or bullet holes, looked a bit amature, and the gun sound didint sound that real. You may of been able to tweek that though...

    I have just finised my first script, I think.

    The film is basicly about a couple who move to a new area and get victumized by chavs (thugs). I keep going back and editing bits, I am looking at some pro ones and some bits seem different. a couple of things im unsure on at the moment are: Are you ment to mention every camera shot? Are the...
