4096x1743 is 4K Anamorphic resolution but I'm not sure on the process, sorry!

You might wanna look at Premiere Pro for the editing (which can color grade a little bit itself) and After Effects for your vfx. There are a ton of tutorials that you can search for online to learn the software as well.

My suggestion to you, since it seems like you're first starting out, is to use the camera that you are the most comfortable with. That way you can focus on the story and not be on set trying to figure out how to change such and such settings. If your comfortable with the Lumia, use that and vice...

That link was great don't get me wrong, but that was only explaining physical tools to hand produce tears. What I really want to know is how can a director help an actor get into that mindset , that emotional journey that's necessary to produce real, raw emotion that can eventually translate to...

This subject may have been disscused in advance so I apologize if it's a repeat, anyways, how do you get or help get an actor to the point of crying during a scene. How much help is needed from the director in order to allow the actor to get to that emotional climax. So does anyone have any tips...

I found this handy link where you can find about 70 screenplays from some pretty recent and really good films. A good resource for any screenwriter/filmmaker. Here y'all go: http://www.screencraft.org/blog/download-70-screenplays-legally-free/ Yes the link URL seems sketchy but it is actually...

From just skimming through it, the really big issue here is that you are writing everything in paragraphs, you don't want to do that at all. Read a couple of actual screenplays and notice that very seldomly do scripts have more than 4-5 lines of text in an action "clunk". Break it up into...

Regardless of one's "condition" in a family, when it comes to someone close to you, killing someone, it becomes a problem no matter what. In a sense, I want the dialogue to be confusing, so the audience feels what Jamie feels , confusion. But I also don't want her to sound too dumb and stupid so...

Within context it doesn't really make sense, but at this point Sam is overreacting and sort of just lashing out at Jamie as if to make him feel attacked and/or threatened and thus you have Jamie's backlash at the end where he sort of implodes all his frustrations at her. Would changing that...

Hey y'all, sorry to bump up such an old thread but I was wondering if I could get some final feedback on this script, which I seem to be pretty proud of. I made a lot and a lot of adjustments/changes that I think really help it, thoughts/analysis are much appreciated! Script...

For my short film, I have a couple of wide shots acting as a master for some dialogue scenes. So my question is, how would I go about recording the dialogue for these shots? Adding to the challenge, I don't have any lavalier mics, only a shotgun which makes this a lot harder :hmm: Does anyone...

I have yet to test it out personally, but from the looks of this video: http://tinyurl.com/omg3324 It seems like you can seem to do it (match shots/change exposure) fairly efficiently. I'm unaware of how/if DaVinci does it, so some research for that program is necessary. If there is, and I'm...

Haha, I'm 17 and I feel exactly like you I'm guessing. Not to deviate to much from the answer, but I worked my butt off on a 45 or so page script and ended up having every single actor bail on me an hour before the shoot even after I communicated multiple times with them to make sure they were...

If you're using Premiere Pro, isn't Speedgrade available to use? Sure, it isn't exactly as great as say DaVinci, but you can definitely follow everyone's advice on here without having to export, re-export, etc in order to get it into DaVinci. It works like a charm with the direct link...

I've used both personally, for which I started out using Final Cut X. Final Cut is definitely powerful enough to cover all your conventional editing needs, and it's also very intuitive and easy to get into. But later I switched to Premiere because it just felt "right" to me, it felt like it just...

Adding to what Gonzo said, don't tell us, show us. Show the audience the relationships, don't just tell us about them. Film is visual, let people see it. That way you cut down on a lot of the description and make it more engaging for the reader.

I have quite a simple question here, and sorry for starting two threads in a row I'm just very curious in these answers... Anyways, is there any proven method so to speak on how to find the overlying themes in films, I know some are obvious but some are not. Anyone have some thoughts on this?

So I just managed to see Guardians of the Galaxy over this weekend, which I highly recommend, but it got me thinking about why we as a culture adore such superhero films? (if in need of evidence, note the billion + gross of "The Avengers"). Is it because they present a magical place where we...

VivaChiba had some very good advice as he's absolutely right. Start small. Some other tips: -Don't expect your first few things to be perfect, they aren't gonna be. And no one ever does get to making a "perfect" film anyways. -The more prep you put into it, the easier it will be to make, thus...

That's so awesome man! And very generous might I add! Do you have any website, YouYube, portfolio, etc. where we can hear some of your tunes?
