    plot Focusing on a single project for this year...opinion on premise wanted.

    I agree with this, and I think a good way to fix it would be to end the movie on a cliffhanger. No way in hell would Dad just give up on looking for his daughter. He still takes in this new girl, and when she discovers what he's been up to, she insists he take her in under his wing so that they...

    Favorite Celebrity Moment?

    Lol, this is a fun thread. In response to Mara's post above, I had the great pleasure of editing the trailer for "Surviving Family", which means I watched Billy Magnusen's performance in that film a million times. I'm not surprised that since then he's blown up and is now headlining big-budget...

    pre-production Problem - My own Development Hell - UK LGBT Drama Film

    Your first feature (and I'd say this is just long enough to call it a feature) is more of an education than anything else. Yeah, a rare director gets huge accolades with their first feature but the odds of that happening are slim (sorry, I'm being a realist, not a pessimist). Just get it done...

    movies What's the last film you watched? And rate it!

    I've decided that from now on, I'm going to rate things on a scale of Jar Jar to Baby Yoda. My most recent film - "The Miseducation of Cameron Post". I really enjoyed it, and I love the ending. On a scale of Jar Jar to Baby Yoda, I'll give it a C3PO, but specifically C3PO from "Rise of Skywalker".

    That sounds horrible. Find a different place to shoot.

    cinematography Which small upgrade should come first?

    For talking heads you can always saturate the crap out of the room with cheap construction lights and bounce them off the walls/ceilings. But should you do this, get low wattage and keep your subject on the other side of the room cuz those suckers get HOT. If it were me, I'd use the camera I've...

    But did you see the dogs? That scene alone was worth the price of admission.

    Unlimited Theatre Pass for $10 a month

    I'm not surprised. Their service was crap. AMC Stubs A-list and Regal Unlimited are both great deals for the customer and a much more viable business model. I've been quite happy with both. Ever since they switched to ten bucks a month, moviepass was a sinking ship and an absolute pain in the ass.

    How can I write horror without disgust

    IT of course isn't the only place online to exchange filmmaking ideas and experiences, etc. There's another place I check every now and then. Just today, a newb asked about the 90-degree rule. Another member responded with a link to a forum wherein the issue is discussed in great detail. Uhh...

    vfx Add camera movement to a photo

    You also can't do a push in post. I never said that what the OP wants to do won't be fine. But it will definitely be an entirely different thing from camera movement.

    vfx Add camera movement to a photo

    You can't add camera movement to a photo. Alcove is correct to point out the Ken Burns Effect, but it's important to note that a pan in post is not even slightly the same as a real-life pan. That's not actual camera movement. That being said, any time I use a still photo in a documentary, I'm...

    How can I write horror without disgust

    Have you seen "Sixth Sense"? That movie scared my pants off. Only one person dies and there's barely any blood shown.

    What's the best way to watch 3D movies? Lol, ask Cheech. ;)

    favorite Favorite Scenes/Sequences Ever

    The climactic finale of "Temple of Doom", starting with Indy's escape from captivity/brainwashing, aided by Short-Round, ending in with the big fight on the bridge/cliff, when Short Round says, "hang on lady, we going for a ride", lol.

    movies Joker

    I don't know that I'd say "meh" to the MCU but "Joker" is getting rave reviews, Phoenix's performance in particular. I definitely have high hopes for this one.

    Can I use videogames as a source of filmmaking and cinematography inspiration?

    Inspiration can come from anywhere. Any inspiration you get, use it! :)

    actors Have you ever watched any movie with a really sexy character?

    When did MRA's start posting on here? Lol. OP, I'm with BB. It isn't just your original question -- it's how you phrased it. And since then, you've dug the ditch deeper and deeper. But F' it, I'll answer your question -- any character played by Tina Fey -- intelligent, educated, outspoken...
