Wow, what an enormous amount of work...lots of shots, lots of editing. You produced a very interesting video with very little to work with. The pacing and length of your shots was just right, and your use of transitional effects was great. Congratulations. It;s a long song but you somehow...

Looks good, but....you crossed the stage line. Both characters are looking the same direction. oops

Keep your eyes open for a "Production Assistant" position. There are usually several production assistants working on a film project or in a television station. You probably won't see the word "intern" in any of the ads. An internship is normally arranged through a school, and is not...

In RIO BRAVO, John Wayne goes to the warehouse to call out "Nathan Burdett" and his gang. Walter Brennan, "Stumpy", shows up with a double barrel shotgun to help. He finds a case of dynamite, opens it and begins throwing sticks at the warehouse. As they hit the ground, John Wayne shoots the...

I ran across this fascinating documentary on script writing. Take a look (click here)

RE: "The Vernonia Incident" shot in 16mm. This project was shot way back in 1989. I used an old TV News camera called an Auricon, which recorded sound directly onto the film as it was being shot. There was a magnetic sound stripe on the side of the film. After the Ektachrome film was...

How about hanging the crystal around her neck?...It would work like the camera on a police officer. This would allow you to use either objective or subjective video...

Think of their footage in terms of "narration without pictures". First you edit the narration into a logical sequence, taking out all of the pauses and dead spots. You could also consider recording and adding you own narration to theirs. After you've edited all of the narration together, you...

Cleaning tapes are very abrasive (like sand paper) and should not be over used. They WILL ruin your playback heads if over done. If you don't see any picture breakup when you play your archive tapes, don't use the head cleaning tape. You don't need to clean your heads before every tape transfer...

I think that RETURN OF THE LIVING DEAD is one of my favorite zombie films because of the added comedy elements. It's free to watch on tubi-tv if you want to take a look, (click here)

Thanks. We'll try it. By the way, I think that we have around 500 VHS tapes, so we should be good for awhile .(smile).

Here in Florida Disney closed all of its parks, (Epcot, Magic Kingdom, Animal Kingdom, and the water parks), but they have kept all of their employees on the payroll. Disney's payroll...(drum roll)....$32 million per WEEK. Universal and Kennedy Space Center are also closed. We stopped...

Congratulations. We hope that it does well.

We shot an entire feature film, TATTLETALE CORPSE, in our living room in front of a green screen. Without the green screen, our locations would have included a police station, jail, morgue, funeral home, hospital, church, TV studio, exterior murder sites, and more. With the green screen we...

We downloaded it. It's a tremendous editing system with all the bells and whistles. Unfortunately, it is so powerful that it freezes our computer, so we had to delete it.

The captioning company REV.COM is raising their prices by 25% on March 2nd, so if you've been putting off your captioning for any reason, you can save some money by getting it to them before March 2nd. A feature that now costs $100 to caption will be $125 after March 2nd.

Great job. This could do well on the festival circuit.

A producers rep is to a producer, what an agent is to an actor. In most states it is illegal for an agent to charge a client up front for representation.

We have done several no budget feature films, and I fell into the habit of padding them with shots and scenes that were too long so that I would have a feature. They ran 75-90 minutes. A couple of years ago I decided to re-edit them the way that they should be edited, and I ended up with films...
