    Amazon did it again.

    The only part of Amazon making money is the webhosting services. The Amazon store with shipping has always been bleeding money, relying on investors to make up for charging predatory prices. That part of their business model is even so bad, that while scaling up the percentage of costs grew. If...

    Amazon Prime Video Removing Titles

    That must be February 31st 2020 ;) There is always political news. And just when you think there isn't, so late news will come in, lol. IT is not really a place for politics, but in this thread alone we have an anti-nazi-film, a diverse film and a "possible "sexist", promoting "racial...

    actors Have you ever watched any movie with a really sexy character?

    1) Don't complain about complaints when your first line of text sounds like a dry humper. 2) Writing that like that seems to show you need start to observe the world with your upperbrain. Seriously: I'm partly joking and partly not. It takes empathy and a sense of nuance to see and imagine the...

    lighting Does light quantity affect the softness of your light?

    600 bare LEDs create 600 shadows. Not pretty at edges as it creates cascading lines of shadows that get darker and darker. 'Amount of light' is relative to the other lights in the scene. And to the distance to the subject. If quantity didn't matter, we could lit everything with a single...

    social-media YouTube giving creators $0

    YouTube is having a hard time keeping up with bigotry in the comments. There is whistleblow content out there thriving on community writingnasty comments: they (advertisers) want no part in that. Fosta/Sesta is probably a reason for the sexual ban. Patreon and Tumbler already had their...

    cinematography Creating long takes?

    True. But you don't NEED a certain camera: the original question was rather gear oriented.

    cinematography Creating long takes?

    Children of Man has long takers shot from the shoulder. It is what Rik says: it is not the gear, it is the cast. They need to master the shot as if it is a dance, because it is an actual cheography without music to make sure everybody's action is synced in such a way that the shot works. All...

    Western Village!!

    Indeed. Use Duolingo or some app like that to learn basics. Watch movies with closed captions for deaf people to match the writings and the sounds of English in your head. Read books. English books. After 5 years of English class in school (3 hours per week plus homework and exams) and...

    Is a professional still able to enjoy movies as an audience?

    When I go see a movie I am not going to watch it to analyse it. I want to be submerged. If I want to analyse it, I will watch it again with that goal. Like Sean and Mara say: you will see things coming sooner, because you understand forshadowing and subtext better. That is why I no longer...
