Pretty difficult to judge the impact of the size of the space without knowing a few more technical specifics about what you are shooting/what you are shooting with. Instinctively I agree with Rok that you want to scope out the space for power supply. By the sounds of it, both these rooms are in...

Looks great, I've backed!

Harry Potter's back in the news, so I'm going to bump this old(ish) project for anyone who missed it ;)

Hmm not had anyone else mention the whispering but it's definitely worth bearing in mind. And you're right about optimising any technical aspect for the distribution format – we made several visual allowances for the smaller screen – it's definitely something anyone approaching a web-series...

Thank you! It's a funny one cos we shot all 10 episodes back-to-back before starting the editing, so I think that, as much as anything, it's been a case of the episodes getting stronger once some establishing guff was out the way. And, in hindsight, I don't know whether there was much point in...

Nobody gets anything with emails.

I wish there were a sexier story but I literally just emailed him. We only needed him for a half day, so I think it worked pretty easily with his schedule and, yeah, we did the two scenes back to back and it only took a couple of hours. Some episodes focus more on one party than the other, and...

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zn5Ea3laXUA New episode, which I hope you all enjoy! This episode will hopefully be our mid-season bump as it guest stars a familiar face from a classic British sitcom (the sort of sitcom I would not like any comparisons to be drawn to.....). Grateful for any...

Buying my camera last year has definitely improved my productivity as a filmmaker. The minute I bought it, it went down in value and has steadily depreciated, and I can see why that puts people off but, on the flip side, it has continued to perform, as a camera, exactly how it did in the...

Looks good! I actually think this is a great length for a corporate showreel – if they like the look they can explore an expanded portfolio, but there's nothing more tedious than wading through dozens of 3+ minute reels.

Yeah, definitely you want to accept Apple Pay. In the UK at least, machines from service providers that accept contactless payment automatically accept Apple Pay too.

I think that, in general, the Conservative party is easier to make into a cartoon. Even if I were a right-wing commentator, the caricature can still be drawn in broader lines (especially as not many SpAds are really of the radical communist persuasion that might be more stereotypable). And...

New Goal: Let's have an exhibition worthy film (including sound!) by 1st September 2016!

Sorry, I didn't mean 'posturing' in the sense of taking an ideological position that you don't really believe in, more in the sense of people sometimes being overly aggressive or confrontational in a slightly performative manner! Enjoy your weed.

SUGGESTION: When we choose the film we also choose a short film which is thematically/tonally/creatively linked to the feature film choice. The short film can be professional or amateur (or that space in between), and will just add an extra element to the main discussion but also allow people...

I've IRL collaborated with probably a half dozen IndieTalk members, which has been great. Even on my latest project there were two other IndieTalkers providing key functions. I agree: that's definitely the spirit this place should poster, rather than petty, anonymous antagonism. With that in...

FWIW (and I'm not taking sides in the Great APE/CF Civil War of 2016) creating a proof of concept/execution, as a loss leading exercise, is a perfectly legitimate business strategy in practically any industry, including film.

The problem is this sort of thread. I know you guys all mean well, but the vibe is always pretty macho, pretty posturing. And it only gets worse when a discussion brings in thoughts on young actresses – I think the balance often tips into outright misogyny. I've also noticed (with two very...

***DON'T MENTION THE THICK OF IT (OR VEEP)*** I guess I feel like we have to aspire to have people respond to characters in the same way that they would over a longer format. I wanted it to be a sitcom about people working in politics, rather than a political sitcom (where all the jokes would...

Put simply, I can't afford to shoot more episodes. And I'm not willing to expend the energy of this project all over again for a few hundred views per episode. I set myself the pre-release target of 10,000 views per episode and we still have a long way to go to get anywhere near that. That...
