If the camera has XLR inputs, you're most likely fine (make sure it has phantom power though). If it only has 1/8" or 1/4" ports, you can still get an adapter for that, but may loose quality or get interference if you jiggle the connection.

Geez, all these people smoking weed to get inspired! You know, I once had an idea for a short where a couple kids find out the police are gonna be burning a huge evidence stash at a local crematorium and attach a bong to a broken pipe out back... only they mess up the time and date and end up...

Here's my perspective... at least in regards to the feature film I'm currently embarked upon.... So I'm the "writer/director" (and supporting actor) in the movie. Now, 2 weeks back I got my core crew and available cast together for a technical test shoot to make sure the two cams we have will...

Hey, I'd have to say that looks incredible. The plot is interesting, the acting looks fantastic, crystal clear cinematography and a great trailer (I had to watch it twice). To be honest, this looks like it could be one of the best, most well-produced indie films I've seen around here in a while...

The thing you have to understand is that a making film is a very complicated task. Your crew and cast is a machine, and like most other machines, should not be operated by someone under the influence. By being on mind-altering substances, the result is usually that you will have distracted your...

Hey guys, I posted the location scout video for our upcoming feature, The Mushroom Man, online for the cast and crew to check out. The bulk of the film will be shot at Dome Country, site of the Wreck Beach Film Festival. I still am going to make another scout video for the other locations, but...

OK.... 1) Who's shot day for night before and what are some helpful primers to keep in mind? 2) Can you post link to footage so I can see? It gets REALLY dark at night down at the location I'm shooting at in the fall. I might shoot a mix of day-for-night, magic hour and dead-of-night... how...

I'm in the same boat as you buddy... except I've somehow convinced myself to do this for $1000 and we're shooting this fall! Good luck!

But "The Rock" was like, the best reach-around ever!

I can't speak for Bloodrayne cause I didn't see it, but Dungeon Siege... wow... I saw that at the Afterdark Film Fest and actually filmed an interview with Uwe after on the curb. I thought it was funny, it looked decent and had an interesting cast, but it wasn't supposed to be funny, the plot...

Crank = Awesome Kung Fu Hustle = Awesome Dogma = Awesome but dated, and I prefer Clerks 2 & Chasing Amy but they're all awesome. I would F*** Kevin Smith. Well... I'd say I would, but would probably run out of the room as soon as he dropped trou... Batman: The Movie (Adam West) = Awesome Evil...

Cool... what kind of horror? Psychokiller melodrama? Monster movie? Zombies? Ghosts? In-laws?

Well, 1st production meeting done! Had most of the main cast and two of my audio guys there. I gave everyone a treatment (well, scriptment/scene list) to take home, we went over the basic synopsis, characters, special effects, shooting schedule, budget, audio/video workflow, and a lot more! I...

LOL... you just WAIT... Let's just say I wanted a scene that would be EXTREMELY memorable (on par with the "vine rape" sequence from Evil Dead)....

Damn, thanks! I never came across that species and I gotta reference that! You literally just inspired a new scene, lol... you're so getting Special Thanks for that! My friend Jenn who's doing our make-up and part of the SPFX team was just playing around with some sculpting clay and made a few...

Yeah, the very first drafts were VERY different from what I ended going with. Originally it was set after the apocalypse and a couple finds a sole old crazy farmer in a house and he feeds them all psilocybic mushrooms, but then a gang shows up and invades the house... but halfway through writing...

Really? LOL... I should like to read that one day! I actually did a google search the other day for "mushroom zombies" and it came up with this blog where some guy outlined a story he wanted to make into a movie that had more than a few eerie coincidences... and then some douche in the comments...

Ooh, that's a good one- I have to make a contact sheet so everyone can contact everyone... good job, thanks! Bophe- Thanks man. Need all the encouragement I can get! I've already run into one potential snag- our lead actor is union, ACTRA... he's cool doing for potential deferred pay- and I...

Oh.... my.... god... I wrote a movie about killer fungi and the thought never occurred to me to work that pun in there... Ok, if we get it in there you're getting TWO special thanks!

Oops, I've done it again... that's right. I wrote myself a script and now I'm a'gonna shoot it! Well, for those who might not be familiar with me (since instead of posting here as often and blogging about wanting to write, I've been actually focused on writing for the past year!).... Hey...
