    Machine Learning - Retro Futuristic Low Budget Sci Fi Short Film

    A lone astronaut jettisoned in an escape craft contends with an all in one survival device, hellbent on creating its own life form. Created as an extremely low budget sci fi short film, this film was a very fun and exciting challenge. I wanted to do something with one set, one actor and see if...

    I Challenge You to a Duel!

    No, I only listed it that way because I think it is a little weird to have participants vote. If no one wants to vote or does vote (members of the community), you get the newest member of the community to actually get involved in something and vote.

    directing How would you best spend 50K and free time to start a directing “career”?

    I would save that cash in an interest earning account for now, and then use it as a spec feature account after you are finished suffering through working for other productions, and finally want to test your own skills. As you are working for other productions, you can slowly learn what works...

    I Challenge You to a Duel!

    Well, this escalated while I was away... I apologize, I've been focused on work a little more than average, but now I am free to partaaay. I like the sound effect idea. I think the limitation should be time based, makes it easier metric to control overall. You all have chimed in with a...

    I Challenge You to a Duel!

    you live in Cali, and you are limited with actors??? Impossible. lol. I'll give this about another week to get a couple other people involved too. Does end of November sound like a good end date? I was thinking as a central piece using dried pasta as the McGuffin.

    ANNA - Short Horror Film

    I feel the same way. I have made around 4 total short narrative films so far. Others were smaller projects. Each time, I feel like something improves. If not my technical skills, then my vision and creativity gets more confidence. The only thing I really need work on is my personality. lol.

    Machine Learning | Release Date Trailer

    Its was designed that way for the trailer, it doesn't sound like that in the actual film. Plus, I'm actually working on other things now. Not enough reward vs risk to change it now.

    I Challenge You to a Duel!

    I challenge all of you interested to make a short 1 minute micro short film based on one thing as your central piece. We can decide the central piece by vote, or I can choose for us. Film it with your cell phone, or whatever gear you have. I can set the due date to the end of November. Anyone...

    Machine Learning | Release Date Trailer

    December 1st is the plan! That's just to give enough time for websites to premiere it if they want to. If not, I will release it myself on that date. I also set up a patreon to watch it before then. Of course, no one is going to do that... lol. But just figured it would be dumb not to ask. All...

    blog "Machine Learning" a Scifi Horror Comedy Short Film - Preproduction thread

    The project is complete! Pushing onto film festivals far and wide. I've noticed since the shift to blog style, there is less traction on these kinds of posts. I don't think I will continue updating this thread beyond this point. Thanks everyone who followed! Hope to have the final film...

    Winter Filmmaking Tips

    Help me prepare for an upcoming winter shoot! I would love to hear from anyone familiar with working in extremely cold/adverse climates.

    directing Catering hacks, Let's talk about it

    Yeah, its getting to the apex point, where people no longer feel a personal sacrifice should be made regarding someone else's vision or passion unless everyone is getting the same treatment, or getting properly compensated. There is nothing wrong with that by any means. I think that's why its...

    directing Catering hacks, Let's talk about it

    Also, it really should matter with the budget. If you are being adequately paid for the production, I shouldn't have to worry about you getting the exact snacks you are looking for at the crafty table. I'm sure we would all rather have more money in our pockets, than worrying about organic or...

    directing Catering hacks, Let's talk about it

    well damn, I guess I should consider them after all. Same with LaCroix. People shit talk it to oblivion, but its always on a set. Now, one thing that stood out to me was this drink: IZZE Sparkling Fruit Juice I was exhausted, worn out, and about halfway through a 12 hour shoot, at 11pm. I...
