    Bonding Audio?

    Hm... I always go to the 'official' stores when buying electronics just to be safe... because Hong Kong... most of them is either 'non-exchangable', no warranty, or a fake. I'd ask someone if they could find a good windproof mic. Also, I want to ask, after putting all together the different...

    Bonding Audio?

    Hey everybody, If you haven't read my other posts, then I'll tell you that... Well I've decided to make a mini-series with my friends (we're about 13 years old). It's going to have some action in it but not too much. Anyways, I only have 1 camcorder and a tripod right now (that's it) and later...

    Rehearsals for children

    I am a student myself, and personally if I was asked to act in a film, I would prefer, and feel much more comfortable, if the director asked me how much I'm willing to contribute and practice. After each practice, you might also want to ask her how she's feeling, and give her a rest once in a...

    Needy for Ideas

    Hey everybody, Again thanks for the ideas. I've discussed with the actors and they seem to like ACTION more. Also, people are age (most of our viewers at school) prefer ACTION more.

    AHH! Wind!

    Thanks :) I am not sure what good microphones to get that could be attached to a boom... The problem is when I cut audio, there's a dramatic background sound difference and it sucks... Jeremy

    Youtube Series

    Sorry but I think this reply doesn't help :P I'm actually doing the same thing... but I will probably post the series somewhere else too (I'm shooting HD so if I post the videos on Stage 6 Divx/ Vimeo, the quality will be better. Anyways, I also have my limits; I'm a student and most my actors...

    Learning to Write

    If you have pinpointed your idea, I think... the best way is to listen to music: This helps when you're writing lines. For example if you're writing a romance scene, if you listen to some love songs they'll really much help you change the style of your writing and you'll be surprised that you...

    How to make a pond?

    I'm not sure if this is going to help (I'm not at all proffesional; just a young student... really young) But what would make sense to me... is to add a 'carpet' of grass just big enough for you to film (the area where the old man is sitting), then make a (not so deep) pond: Just fill the space...

    AHH! Wind!

    Hey everybody, I currently shoot with a Canon HG10 and the image quality is fabulous. However... when it comes to the sound- terrible. I know the best way is to use an external microphone, but the only one I can find in Hong Kong is the Canon microphone, that can be attached to most Canon...
