    browsing housing in LA...

    The best place to find apartments in LA is <a href="http://www.westsiderentals.com">Westside Rentals</a>. It cost some money to sign up, but it's money well spent IMHO.

    Mockumentary question...

    Thanks for your thoughts. I am pretty much thinking along the same lines as you.

    Mockumentary question...

    What if it's not a parody?

    Mockumentary question...

    I should mention that I will be shooting the scene with an actor who looks like Hendrix. I will not be using any real footage of the real Hendrix himself.

    Mockumentary question...

    So, say I'm doing a short, and I want to have a fake (but seemingly real) interview with Jimmy Hendrix from the 60's, are there any legal ramifications I should be aware of? This is a fake interview, but nowhere in the short do I state that, so it is possible that a person seeing the short...

    photoshop in os x question

    Not sure what version of Photoshop you're using, but it is rumored that PS has a font limit of 512... so if you have more than that, you will have to delete some you dont want. Or, try using a font manager, which categorizes fonts and 'hides' them. Check google for font managers.

    Finally got a camera!

    Well, I was planning on having the worst, but you've made me reconsider. (i'm being an ass, sorry :D )

    Finally got a camera!

    When buying on eBay, it's just like any other situation: caveat emptor. Since no one makes super8mm cameras anymore, you can't walk into Bestbuy and pick one up with a warranty. You're either going to buy one from a private seller, a mom-and-pop online store, or a place like eBay. I would...

    Finally got a camera!

    http://www.pro8mm.com has cameras and camera packages for sale. Pretty expensive, but from what I've seen/read, they are good cameras (the s8mm's are refurbished Beaulieus, which are already great cameras). I would recommend checking eBay. That's where I got mine. A lot of sellers have online...

    Finally got a camera!

    I have a friend who is helping me with this and he has two tungsten lights (250x-500w each) as well as diffuser's and filters. I know with Kodachrome everyone keeps saying that you need a LOT of light for indoor shooting, so hopefully this will be enough? HailtotheKing, yes, I got lucky and...

    Finally got a camera!

    Yes, IMHO it's the best camera for the price I paid. I was hoping to spend a little less on an 814 xl-s, but the cameras don't come up for sale too often. And for it's age, I cannot find a single scratch or blemish on it. Everything seems to be working as if it was brand new. Now it's time to...

    Finally got a camera!

    Hey everyone, just wanted to update anyone who was waiting with baited breath about my camera purchase. Here it finally is... And, along with my fresh stock of Kodachrome... I think I am finally ready to start shooting! Thanks to everyone who offered help and advice!

    Oh I will. Hopefully it will be within the next week or two!

    Kinda quiet here...

    Yes, that's a very good point. I guess since I'm hoping to start shooting my short soon, I hope to make the right choice from the start. How about buying overseas though? Have you done much of that? Thoughts?

    Kinda quiet here...

    So I figure I'll talk about what's been on my mind :) I am now ready to purchase a super8 camera. I've done my research and asked alot of questions (both here and other boards). I've been checking eBay daily and keeping an eye out for a good camera. But, of course, i still can't decide on what...

    good tripod?

    Hi there, still haven't gotten my camera yet, but I was wondering about tripods. Does the s8mm camera need any special adapters or can it pretty much work with any tripod?
