    sound I want to use music from another movie.

    Thanks for your response. Do you suppose it'd be cheeper and easier to have my composer create the piece of music in a way that is almost exactly llike the piece i would like to use? I do agree when you said going the route i wanted to go wouldn't be an easy route, but then again, the fact that...

    sound I want to use music from another movie.

    Okay, so i just recently got finished watching the 2006 film Crossover, and in that movie, when they show random various shots to transition from scene-to-scene, there is this fascinating music being played! It sounds so cool and i so wanna use that for my movie! BTW Crossover is on YouTube in...

    How long should a short film be?

    Seeing the amount of replies already in this thread I wonder if it's too late to give my thoughts but in any case, generally since a full-length feature can run from any where between 80 to over 120 minutes, then a short can be anywhere from 3 to hell even over 60 minutes. Like somebody on here...

    How do I number a header on both sides?

    Most all of the screenplays for films I have read have this for example: 17 INT. SUBWAY PLATFORM - DAY 17 I'm working on a script for my film and I have it formatted so that each header is automatically numbered. My script/screenplay is being...

    Airsoft/BB guns for prop guns -- yeah or nah?

    I'm planning on having guns and shooting in my indie film. I would like to have Airsoft or BB guns that resemble high-quality firearms in the film and just remove the orange tips at the barrel in order to save production funds as blank guns would probably be more expensive. I do like when a gun...

    SWSX teaser question

    I keep watching the teaser for the 2011-2012 indie film Yelling to the Sky and I like it. But I'm curious because when I finish my film, I'll be submitting it to SWSX as well, but does the filmmaker cut the teaser him/herself or is it made by SWSX? Natalie O'Shea

    Need help making my first indie film:

    All right... I want the movie to sound... professional! I don't want the audio to sound like crap. I want it to sound smooth. I want the guys to hold up good mics when dialogue and sound is being made, etc. Did you mean "not"? Shadowboxer is available on pay-per-view YouTube and there is...

    Need help making my first indie film:

    All that makes sense. After all, this isn't a porno flick, just a movie that happens to feature a couple of nude sex-secenes. So for it to get an X-rating is crazy to say the least. Now that you put all that that way, I'm thinking then I'd just better have really good perks to acquire all the...

    Need help making my first indie film:

    "Scrim" thank you! I was actually going for the name of the object, not the dimensions of the object. Then they're not really called "grants", are they? "Loans", I believe, would be the more appropriate terms as grants don't need to be reimbursed. Oh, I will, and thanks to you and everyone...

    Hi, y'all! It's Natalie. New to the board... So I'm joining because I'm an aspiring filmmaker trying to get her first film off the ground. Here's all the information I have about the movie I'm trying to make: The cameras I'm going to shoot on are the, Sony CineAlta F35 (A Camera) and the Sony...
