re I think so. Basically a filmmaking mic. for indoors, although, if I find out how, I may want to somehow record a little ambient noise, but now it's focusing mostly on vocies, yes, if that was your ?

I found out i pro. want a hyper cardoiod pattern, and on other blogs the two main ones around 500 (give or take some $) and are the rode nt3 and oktavia mk-012. However, does the oktavia need phantom power? I dont know what to use for phantom power, buit, according to you all, it's something to...

fyi: This is the first script or project ive ever attempted. Thanks for criticism. I was planning on doing everything with the script format right in the future anyway. I have the free software. Any sugg. for short films?

ok, i think im very close to buying some equipment finally! and i am, for the most part, pretty sure of what i want to buy. I was thinking of buying a canon hv30, sony vegas platinum pro pack, and possibly a sennheiser me66 mic? Thats where im not 100% sure. I heard it works great anywhere, and...

I just finished the first draft. I cannot seem to find a way to post it publicly, but will gladly send it to anyone who asks. Please give me an email to send it to, as thats the only ay I know how to send it. Comments preferred to be posted here or through an email. Feedback appreciated! NOTE...

After looking at descriptions of sonys vegas, I realized should be able to buy the cheaper versions (ultimate instead of pro) and have all the features I want. Am I right? If so, that saves me much money. I want to be able to edit clips and cut them, add music, good effects, longer credits, and...

A movie Im working on has a few scenes where the type of music is vital. The music from the dark knight soundtrack matches perfectly with much of it, including a climax scene using "track 4 aggresive expansion". What do i have to do if I want to use this music? Would it be better to create or...

Ive looked online for how to make my own boompole, as its much more logical to make a cheap one instead of paying a million times more for a good one(at least with my budget). They range in price of supplies. Some say it costs 15, some 30. I dont know which ones to try. Any reccomendations? Thank.

On this website people have posted about borrowing equipment for free from some broadcasting thing or something. There werent many details, but I want to know more. They did, however, sugest I post something on craigslist. I posted something under green bay, wisconsin under gigs and the crew...

re. thanks for the help. Hopefully you guys are best friends now! Anyway, I posted a sort of "Help wanted " post on craigslist. You can find it on the places will mentioned under green bay wisconsin. Am I asking right? And I was curious more about these people for broadcasting companies or...

re I prob. want to spend only up to 500 altogether if possible. i was thinking that a mic would be about half that, then with accesories it might be a little less than that. any suggestins for add ons? beachtek adaptor or converter cable? there is a big price difference between the 2, so if i...

thanks for previous help, now i have more ?s. It seems a lot of people suggested i just get a mic that plugs directly into my camcorder with a mic input, but are any of these really comparable to shotgun mics i was talking about earlier. They are cheaper, which makes me hesitant. And also, I...

Im thinking of getting a mic like the Audio Technica AT897 (I think thats the code) and found out that I should be able to connect it to my camcorder through a beachtk adaptor or a cable, right? Which one is better? (Ill probably want to extend it on a boompole). What about cables to lengthen...

I've decided to use 2 cameras I already have to shoot my first project. They are quite old, but I should be able to edit them on the computer if i already have the dazzle dvd recorder, right? And i can add SOME effects, right?. Ok, the main ? concerns the mic. If I get one with the xlr cable...

re THANKS for the help. I have another ?. I've decided to use 2 cameras I already have to shoot my first project. They are quite old, but I should be able to edit them on the computer if i already have the dazzle dvd recorder, right? And i can add SOME effects, right?. Ok, the main ? concerns...

I have started a few scripts, , but havnt gotten far because i realize it owuld be too hard to accomplish. Any ideas for a story and a script i could write? It will be my first big fiction movie, and i know story may be the single most important element of a movie. I havnt had too much time to...

I'm sorry, but the toughest decision for me on my search for moviemaking equipment is a good mic. My god, theres like a million! Ive done several hours of research, looked on sites, but i'm not much closer to reaching a decision. It seems ive seen a million on the 100 to 300 dollar range. What...

I thought about getting like a $1000 editing software program. I then found the sony vegas pro ($500) and thought this would be much better. This ties into another question I have. You know how they change cmaera angles in movies for the same scene? They use more than one camera for the scene...

Im just wondering if I want to make a movie, does it help to capture the same scene with two cameras at different angles and move the camera to get even more? Can you edit that on a computer, and if so, how do you make sure the audio matches the video with timing and all on switching angles? I...

ok, so i am basically buying most of my equipment and starting with nothing. Im planning on getting a camera(s)?, editing software, and a boom mic, as these seem to be the basics and neccesities. I've done god knows how many hours of research and asked a million people at stores. I have an idea...
