    Every single scene explains the whole script - is that possible?

    You know, in some cases, it is actually true :) He didn't seem pissed off. A misunderstanding may be the case, but everybody understood it the same way. What could he possibly mean? It was a screenwriting class, which is a part of cinematography degree. But I don't study the whole degree...

    Every single scene explains the whole script - is that possible?

    I'm a student to cinematography. Recently I was tasked to write a scene from within my script. I did. I was told that this scene isn't understandable. Who is who? Why? What? Where? Why should I care? Well, it's a random scene from within the script. It's not supposed to stand alone. Of course...

    Job in filming industry as a bridge to further career

    I understand what you mean. Well, I may be wrong, but I tend believe that the best way to make networking is to work close with people, not from the distance (home, office and etc).

    Drones can be used for filming.

    This is interesting subject. I think it is good to use such "drones" for filming, if this is not a joke. Progress, why not? And I don't think it it will take away the jobs from the crew, because I believe such drones still must be operated by people. Someone must setup the machines, fix their...

    Thanks for the advise. If this it how it works, I believe I can do there. I'm a workoholic in some way, and can be nice to ppl. A good question. This is where it seems more interesting and dynamic. What were your questions? Whether there are many entry positions in Israeli cinematography...

    Yes. But I believe the structure of the industry is the same everywhere. I don't think there is something different about jobs there. Production assistant... Well, as a production assistant I was more in driving than on the set: needed to bring actors, or food or something or someone. What I do...

    Job in filming industry as a bridge to further career

    Yes, I alone. I wrote down all notes of camera, sound, make-up, props and clothes. 3 days I was carrying dozens of papers with me :) Next time I'll bring my laptop. I didn't know that there are standard sheets for that.

    tv 5 Huge Mistakes You'll Make in the Film and TV Business

    This is useful article indeed. There is one dilemma I face: Many people say that your first short film should have something personal about yourself, because this is how you can make it better. Because you have the vision. Some say that your first project should not be personal at all, it...

    Job in filming industry as a bridge to further career

    Do you expect me to be "great" in something by default, without years of experience? :) First AD isn't an entry position, but the director can have more AD's on the set. I did script supervising, but in small production (trailer), nearly a month ago. It wasn't only logging, but logging was at...

    Why is this money OR credits??? How much a**ole the producer might be? :) We are not talking about 2 spendable things, only one of them. When I give you 100$, I have 100$ less. But credits? I can give credits to millions of people. It's not something I can run out of. So what does it matter to...

    Job in filming industry as a bridge to further career

    This is encouraging. Alas, I've got a different example as well, not from cinematography. I know someone who works in the municipality center in my city. He is a manager there (don't know exactly of what). He has employees under himself. One day he told me of a very good employee with good...

    Job in filming industry as a bridge to further career

    Not great, but not bad. 3D animation, post-prod-editing. Both are NOT parts of the set. I feel I can do with the sound, but that's a lot courses to take. I can of course do logging (Script Supervising) or AD. But those of course give much lower perspectives.

    Job in filming industry as a bridge to further career

    Well, he probably didn't "direct" it. There was probably a director that did all the job. And this guy was probably someone who needed to be asked if the true director wanted to change something in the script. I think it's the same as with Harry Potter movies, when K.J.Rowling insisted on being...

    Job in filming industry as a bridge to further career

    Many students who want to be directors just shoot some shorts to begin their career. I think this is the best way to enter the industry and establish a career there. What is required to do that, is a script, a cast crew, and some thousand bucks for each short. Unfortunately, even if I get the...

    movies What's the last film you watched? And rate it!

    Guardians of Galaxy :D lol 9/10 1 point off because the antagonist is so poorly developed as a character. And 9 points because of the Racoon, Grut and the muscled guy. The Green Lady was kinda cliche, but nevertheless good. Oh, and I loved the bandit with the whistling arrow and the duck at the...

    Avengers: Age of Ultron?

    What I'd like to see is more about Thor/Loki, Spiderman and Guardians of Galaxy. Especially the last one. I justed watched it yesterday. lol :) Apparently, Avengers and X-Men are less interesting to me. I don't like too many superheroes in movies.

    Avengers: Age of Ultron?

    Wait. Captain America IS a mutant, just not naturally. Hulk as mutant as well. Thor... well, he's ALIEN!!! And from the experiences of alien encounter in Marvel universe, all aliens are invaders. Now go and try to explain them, that one alien protects you from another... And keep in mind, that...

    How do you think the future of screenwriting will look like?

    I think one day Screenwriters will look like hired Newspaper writers. No ideas of your own. Write what the guy with they money wants and have profit. I look at the modern big feature movies, and I find out that the ideas behind those movies come from: 1) - Comics 2) - Novels 3) - Previously...

    copyright Does scripts need to be copyright?

    I think this copyright is just for your own psychological calm, or if someone takes your script unchanged and tries to sell it as his own. And I don't think a random screenwriter will be that stupid. If someone wants to steal your idea, he will do it. He will of course change the setting of the...

    top-list What are your top ten films of all time?

    I would list Avatar if the title was "List your 20 favorite movies". :) It's a very good movie, but I wouldn't call it Epic, like The Dark Knight or Slumdog Millionaire or Terminator 2. Oh, and I still didn't watch Guardians of Galaxy, which I feel it can enter my top 10 list :)
