This is partly what I was referring to by saying he wants to stick to an outdated paradigm of distribution. Netflix, iTunes, YouTube are all paving the way towards a new paradigm of distribution that organisations like the MPAA and RIAA are spending literally billions of dollars trying to fight...

The idea of this thread is to post examples you see in either film or TV shows that is (subjectively!) stupid. For example: Hawaii 5-O. I'd post specific examples from the series but watching twenty seconds of any episode should give you a good idea of what I mean. Buuuut, since I'll probably...

Of course they're related. The distribution models he would like to enforce and retain are entirely rooted in the mentality he's supposedly fighting against. Regional coding isn't about quality, it's entirely about controlling markets and staggering releases. BluRay pricing is outrageously high...

Stuff was better back when it was good! https://itunes.apple.com/au/album/i-like-your-old-stuff-better/id321015466?i=321015628 Nostalgia is 20/80 vision.

Me personally? Very, very, very basic ones :D

That's the problem I have with it though. It's difficult to determine just what is a good video and what isn't solely through YouTube. Through a website it's much easier to determine the quality of the information and with associated forums, get an idea of the level of knowledge within the...

Oh, I can get a brand new one for $439. The one I was thinking of getting last night was on eBay but ended up selling for $355 which was too rich for me.

Lol, nice. Not a criticism just a question, how would you eliminate that echoing sound? Is that something that needs to be done while recording or is it done in post?

Hopefully someone answers within the next two hours... Is $300 a good price for a used T3i (body)?

God no. No it really is not.

Why to arrogantly shove our opinionated 'art' pieces down people's throats and edumacate them, of course! Or, you know, 'cause we like telling stories through the medium of film? YMMV.

Sorry, but I think all of this is a load of nonsense. It all smacks of selfish indulgence and nostalgia. On one hand he decries the nature of the business and on the other he defends as his inherent right as a film-maker to people's money. Hypocritical at best, disingenuous at worst.

I'm broke. Can I borrow $5 so that I can support this?

Yeah, but if you're at a stage where you're upgrading, you're probably going to be able to afford it, since the only thing that would really justify an upgrade is being successful at it. At least, that's how I'll be going about it. As for taking advantage of familial gifts, it's all good and...

While I was trying to figure out where to post a link to a site that I'm finding very helpful as a newbie, I figured I could just make a thread in the newbie section that could include a request for other similar sites. That way it helps more than just myself :)...

As someone who is in a similar position (except without the awesome discount), I'd opt for more equipment. My reasoning is two-fold: 1) There is a massive learning curve for all this equipment. I'm very much a "learn by doing" type. So for me, I'd want to get that experience, make my mistakes...

The T3i seems substantially cheaper than a GH2. If they're comparable, then I wonder why the difference? GH2 in greater demand maybe? Or is it, all around, still a better camera? Which is 'better' for video?

I'd ask for a group hug but I'm not terribly active here until lately so that would just be creepy.

I wish I was smart enough to get this joke :( Hey, some of us can multi-task! Why, just the other day I rubbed my tummy while hopping on one leg. I still haven't quite mastered doing the third task in that trilogy though :(

The normal response is, "You're an idiot!" That's one reason why I keep asking it. The main reason is that I find the non-abusive aspects of the debate interesting. It also lets me filter out those who resort to abuse first and healthy discussion later. Hence why I have Cracker on ignore.
