If I met your art professor and he asked me "what kind of dog," I'd tell him that it doesn't matter because I'm not interested in that level of detail because I can't use that level of detail. That level of detail is useless to someone with my funds and goals for this particular painting. I'm...

I'm not arguing about the benefits of good sound design, or good production design. I'm talking to you about my movie. I'm talking about MY independent low budget movie. And you're talking to me about Gravity and Saving Private Ryan. How are the circumstances of those movies applicable to my...

The Girl Without A Song: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DBXpgvdHWFA heh heh... Feel free to laugh

The idea that sound design or proper lighting for that matter, affects someone watching a movie on his laptop the same way it affects a person watching it in a proper visual and listening environment, is patently absurd. It's out of touch with reality.

You may think this is the difference between a newbie and an experienced production designer. I'd suggest it's the difference between a production designer without a budget and another with one. Who exactly do you think you're providing this brilliant piece of advice about what production...

Why are you asking this? Did someone, a writing instructor perhaps, tell you that your premise was dated?

Hey Paul, Your music is really good. I loved Tavern Dance. While it's fantastic, I think if you take away the "human" sounds in the background and do a test to see if people like it with or without the BG, it would be interesting. I love the melody, I love the instruments, I love the rhythm on...

Okay, I don't agree with Sfoster, but part of the energy of his comments is a reaction. He's reacting to your positions. We all know that not everyone who watches a film watches it in a 5.1 environment. More and more people watch movies on their tablets and their laptops. What he's really asking...

First, please let me apologize for the tone of my comment. I was just expressing a general frustration with filmmakers, and not audio guys in particular. I'm sorry. Of course I want my film to look cinematic. But I make so many compromises in any shoot. Sound is just one of the compromises. If...

Hey, Thanks for watching. I'll keep this in mind, and will most definitely be in touch as I near the release. I'm planning to do an online, limited time free release. Once everything is near ready, I'll send you a link so you have ample time to view it and write about it, should you choose to...

You read my mind :p

I don't doubt that the author saw the film differently because of the added sound but I just don't agree that it makes as great a difference as you think it does, and the author claims, at the subconscious level. Maybe it does. But as of now, I can't see it. I'm not questioning the validity of...

Okay fine. Maybe I should just speak for myself then. What I'm really saying is that I am not creative enough to write a story great enough to be great without marketing, great visuals, sound design etc. Maybe the average filmmaker is.

If story is so important, as every filmmaker keeps saying, why does Hollywood do remakes? If people were craving the story, why can't they just buy the DVDs of the old movies? If story is so important, why is every superhero movie about somebody wanting to destroy the universe, and some people...

Hah!! That's actually all I have really. Perspective. I know exactly how shitty my work is :D. I just don't have the talent to do anything about it :) Just wanted to add that I checked out your site. You should think about adding sound effects to the site such as Find Effects/Sell Effects. I'm...

Okay. I shortened it to two minutes. I basically took out the ending. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DBXpgvdHWFA or https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DBXpgvdHWFA @CF & Walter I understand what you guys are saying, but that's actually not the ending. She doesn't really get him in the end. But I...

You got sharp eyes. I just noticed them. It's called "design" buddy. :)

I just put it up 5 mins ago. Let me know how I can make it shorter, better, etc. thx. thx in advance https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z_wg01tbEe0 or in case you want to see a bigger version https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z_wg01tbEe0 ps. I'm in it by the way. See if you can spot the fat...

Pretty good info. I have to say, I don't know much about how codecs work. Very good point indeed.

Watch Amores Perros. If it works for your film, use it. It's not a Tarantino style. It's just a style.
