    tv Does the MTV generation demand too much from filmmakers?

    I'd say, do what you want to do... what feels right. Nothing is set in stone. People have always been trying out new stuff and combinations, and many of those, have led to the modern way of cutting movies.

    Is it legal for me to credit the actor if...?

    well you can release it... if you sell it, he can come in from the right, and demand a shitton of cash from your profits if you just release it for free, he will be able to force you to either cut him out, or remove the movie from online. but you can also hope that he doesn't care, and don't...

    thought the old adage was that sound is 70% of the movie experience.... do people truly not realize how important sound is anymore? is it really that bad in your professional ears?

    shooting-film Shooting a Webseries on 35mm / Super 8mm??

    Question, and this is in no way negative, i just think it would be helpful for me an others to hear your direct answer to this.

    My friends are not making their feature film project easy for me.

    i would avoid acting and doing sound at the same time let them know that either you act, or you work sound. But they are free to borrow your sound equipment for another person to use. so yeah, what paul says... :D

    How do I get actors to fight each other realistically?

    train them.. have them meet up a few times during a week, and practice. Have them do the hits slow, slow, faster, faster, slow, slow, faster, faster, and then go into full speed... and teach them to pull hits and blows... but this is the reason why you need someone trained in stunt fighting...

    well you can keep the resolution, but just compress it a few hundred times.... there more runs you can compress it, the better the quality vs the size... convert it to xvid or something else works too...

    I'm looking for a spaceship designer.

    Google words like "starship miniature terrain" "styrofoam asteroids" and the likes... you should find tons of DIY ways to make that stuff yourself.

    Is it true that the market does not like controversial films?

    There is nothing in "Resevoir Dogs" that makes it a "controversial" movie... The reason why it might seem to you that controversial movies do well, is that if you have a regular movie and a controversial movie doing well at the same time, people tend to talk more about the controversial one...
