Watched your YouTube clip in HD on a large HD monitor... very nice! I would be too paranoid about damage to drone and camera... with some of those shots. Very nice.

I constantly see on indietalk and else where on the net, people asking about copyright(s). I personally copyright and do a secure register with the LOC (library of congress) on almost everything I do. I get all releases on everything I shoot (talent, location, etc.), whether I charge or do a...

I think it is great that you are continuing on your project, Ernest. This time next year, wife and I will be living in coastal Oregon, (tired of Ohio and the midwest). I plan to spend a lot of time in that part of the country, very soon. Fantastic 'open' beaches, miles of endless forest, high...

Making the covers are pretty easy. I have done many short run (200 - 500 BluRay & DVD). Can show you many examples. I use an Epson Artisan 50 printer that does discs (get the high quality water proof discs in DVD-R or BluRay). They look every bit as good as a professional run, maybe even better...

IronFilm, I save about $1,000.00 a year from the little projects I do collect minor amounts of money from. Yeah, I have a couple very small HD cams that I can carry easily, like a Sony HDR PJ790... they come in very handy and image works for projects up to BluRay. The last big cameras I bought...

MrJay10, Saw this. YOU should read it and take notes... Good luck! Trust B & H -- good timing! The Fundamentals of Wedding Videography for Beginners

To be the best... or merely be competent, learn from those having done Wedding and Event Videography for a long time. Join WEVA. I haven't done weddings since 2002 (except for a few friends pleading for me to do theirs)... so my advice might be a bit archaic... But when I did weddings (and I did...

I do the research and I go back and forth. I am leaning to the URSA mini, but that specific cam has yet to be released so there is not much out there about the camera in the field. I am aware of the cam it is replacing. I know that the PL mount is a more expensive lens mount, I have looked at...

Yes... One of the nice features of the FS7, is allowing multi cards to be used at the same time (due to BIG files)... allowing 4K and 1080p formats simultaneously. No need to convert 4K to 1080p. This is a plus for me, when I need to edit and release finished project quickly in 1080p for...

BACKSTORY -- so you will understand what I am asking advice about. I have been a member of IndieTalk a long time, but have not created many threads due to a wide range of projects that I am involved with (most are not story-telling/film-making). I am not rich, famous or want to be, so my...

Directorik, thanks for the comment... it is always nice to be missed, (been busy doing a lot of film/video projects over the past few years). I still frequently visit and read on Indietalk, for this is a great group with lots of information shared. Saw the question from SeekingBeyond907 and...

Been exactly where you are. Last year I was looking for a camera I can put in my pocket that delivers a quality image. First, you will not find a 4K or a 50 Mbps 'pocket' camera. Also, in Mexico and many other foreign countries, they do limit what they perceive as 'pro camera' use in areas...

4 the fun of it... Portion of narrative (FUN PROJECT) watch in 1080p if possible. This project was completed ASAP -- from script to screen -- for an opening Haunted Attraction in late September (for their October/Halloween 2013). Did for free and completed on time... (even though shot totally...

Good advice. BUT. Just where does one draw the line between risk and opportunity? My random thoughts... My backstory. I have four quality scripts (used as samples) written over ten years ago, circulating on the Internet. The separate copyrights on everyone one of those four scripts are well...

Use what ever you like -- it is your production! Some have made up names to fill the closing credits. Long list of current 'name' directors have done that when they were solo or 'small' and didn't want to appear to be solo or 'small'. Some have used their pet's names or famous writers, artists...

The Documentary Filmmakers Handbook, second edition... The Kickstarter Handbook... Kickstarter for Dummies... (rereading) Making Documentary Films, second edition... (rereading) Documentaries and how to make them... AND John Grishams The Litigators...

After you are positive that your script is the best your script can be... and you are sure that there IS a market for your story. Safely store it on a 'safe' hard drive for few months. Try to forget about it. Clean your brain -- move forward. After a few months go by, read it as if you are...

if & when time allows -- i would contribute.

My ideas were good but my scriptwriting was mediocre at best until 2004 when I started reading and studying screenwriting techniques (3 act with plot points and character arcs, etc.) from Syd Field's videos and books... Also recommend Robert McKee's STORY. Read from as many sources as possible...

Be safe. Hope the air quality is not bad. Feel real sorry for all those people up in those hills. And those that are breathing those fumes. But. I would be the one to get as much 'fixed' camera footage of those flames, cloud formations and such... archive and later wrap a story around. Make the...
