    What is Your Camera Preference?

    AD: Have you tried the CNET video camera finder? They have some pretty good reviews on prosumer cameras as well as consumer cameras. Give it a shot. http://reviews.cnet.com/4247-6500_7-4.html But also remember, you can ask a thousand people what camera to buy and the bottom line is there is...

    Egos, Arrogance, and other time wasters

    It sounds as if you made the right decision Will. If you're having this kind of problem in the pre-production, how do you think the rest of the project will go? I have to admit that it's hard to deal with all the "opinions" when you're trying to do a project, but it's easy to say, "Hum, that...

    cinematography Canon Gl2 or XH-A1?

    You're right about that. My quest for a HD camera basically went along with the best buy I'll jump on. Having sold my GL-2 on e-bay, I figured that I'd get a good used one. This weekend I saw a great deal on a XH-A1, used in "like new" condition on Amazon. I jumped on it. By the next day, I...

    cinematography Canon Gl2 or XH-A1?

    Oak and Swan...do you guys have an opinion on this: Sony FX-1 or Z1U versus the Canon XH-A1 or XL-H1 or XL-G1? I've been debating the two for about a month now, and can't make up my mind! Chris

    Wanted - Flash animator

    Zen...I've got a Part time Flash animator, but he's in the middle of a move right now, so I'm out of touch with him at the moment. When would you need him? We just did a commercial and a spoof of "Survivorman", both are on Crackle and Youtube if you want to take a look at his work...

    Civil War Short Film

    Nice job Gareth. I did catch some problems with period issues. The shirts looked pretty modern, the knife looked contemporary, the matches in the basement seemed to be from a book of matches, the handcuffs looked contemporary, the gun looked like a British Webley (off the top of my head...but...

    Help! What camera should I use and legal issues for script writing?

    Have him sign a contract if you think that you A. Need one (ie: either you don't completely trust him, or you're not going to live up to his ideal of what you should do) B. You think that you may make some money off of the film. You may "know" that you're going to do the right thing if you...

    Question of morals

    I believe that there's nothing wrong with doing a project based on those events. The fact is you don't know that your work won't be the thing that stops the suicides. You might be the one with the answer to help. Reality is that everything is open, as long as your gut tells you that it fits...

    Welcome Parisism...to answer your question, I would, depending upon the stuff you're using, go with digital photos of the documents. Unless you have a very good and large scanner, you'll have a hard time, especially with the maps, scanning them. Also, depending upon the age, I think the...
