    Learning to hate the tripod ...

    The use of tripod needs some solid framing and composition without which shots looks boring and dull. That's why you feel the way you feel. On the other hand, handheld shots draw the viewer's attention onto other stuff. It's still poorly framed and looks just as awful but it's less obvious.

    Film at Private Locations

    Hello FP. You can't protect an idea. Absolutely nothing can't prevent me of doing it too. That's like Economic Competition 101.

    A self-leveling tripod?

    How do you level it on set ? Do you shorten/lengthen the legs or do you have a ball at base of the juncture of the legs ? Because while Option 1 is hell on Earth, option 2 is quite straight-forward.

    nudity.

    What do you mean by "calls" ? Are you showing genitals ? Because as long as you're not showing anything you don't have to be actually naked.

    editing Film Coloring - by scene or entire film?

    First you do color-correction to match shots in the same scene. Then you do color grading to give it the feel you want. And then I guess it's scene by scene since there is no reason what work for an outside night scene will work for an inside day scene.

    first two pages, any advice?

    Well maybe if you give us a picth of the story... right now, I feel like it's a drug movie who wants to be different but is not. Therefore, it just becomes pretentious.
