    editing SteadyMove Premiere Pro plug-in

    SteadyMove Premiere Pro plug-in Anyone ever use it? Im using it now for the first time. It really does smooth out the shaky shots I have. I shot in a moving car, telephoto - always bad news. Anyway, when I apply the effect, I am at 100 smoothing and 15 max correction - after being...

    Konvas

    I noticed the Konvas cameras on ebay about a year ago. Ive noticed that every person who is selling one lives outside the U.S. in Europe. I understand the camera is Russian. But I am very cautious of buying items from overseas, especially ones that sell for a grand or more. About the...

    editing Need help with ADR re-doing dialogue

    What do you have planned? Like everything else, there is a standard process for this, involving something resembling a recording studio, a recording booth, headphones, repetitive playback, and tone countdown. The actor hears the on set recording of his lines on his headphones and says them...

    CP 16A (non reflex) CP 16R - the difference?

    non reflex means that when you look through the viewfinder you arent looking exactly through the lens, which means youre not exactly seeing the same framing of the picture. A reflex viewfinder uses mirrors to provide exact the exact image that your lens is getting. Ever use a disposal still...

    editing ADOBE PREMIERE PRO color correction

    I got my hands on the Premeire Pro book, CLASSROOM IN A BOOK, which is written by the good people at Adobe. I actually find this book much better and easier to read than the PREMIERE PRO FOR DUMMIES book. CLASSROOM helped me to understand color corrction.....so far.

    shorts and music rights

    I know what Im about to post is probably a waste of time, but I m in the mood to do exactly that. mrde50 said, "Out of respect for the artist, I do give them credit, although I do not need to." Okay, that's fine. But what about giving credit in the titles for the names of the designers of...

    shorts and music rights

    I know it is illegal to have copywritten music in your film without permission. But, we dont live in a perfect world where all laws are followed. Anyone know of any short film fests that accept films that contain music without permission? Or do most fests not even bother to ask, and its just...

    films about 1 event/day told from POV of characters seperately

    Wonderland It came out in 2003. I've seen it and enjoyed it. I didn't think it was groundbreaking and there are things about it that I don't like, but overall - it was watchable. It's pretty much what you're looking for, I think. I'm stunned that nobody else here mentioned it. heres a link...

    I Am DB article - Sunday Aug 1st edition - Indianapolis Star

    You seem like a nice guy Jason. But this project seems very self-important. Pretentious. So there's no script, right? You walk around talking to people about making a film about promoting youself for making a movie about promoting yourself. I'm really not trying to insult you - its just...

    learning So many shorts like this out there. But its ok - gotta start somewhere. I'm not exactly sure what the point of this film is. Is it to demonstrate how we learn from our parents - that the neagtive things rub off on us? Don't we all know this already? This short brings nothing new...

    pretty funny This was ok. Pretty funny. Some of the dialogue was clever. Overall it seemed like a one-joke short. But there are certainly worse things on this forum.

    reaction The Gimp This seems like one of the many films ou there that is done purely to amuse the people who made it. I watched it once. I wont be watching it again. Twin Kings This looks laughably bad. I'm sorry. I used to put more effort and thought into my posts - but now I've adopted...

    archived-videos [video] MANN in DRIVING

    simple and effective I liked this. Good example of how something simple can still be effective. This is nowhere near the type of films I'm interested in making - the reason I say that is to show there's no bias - I like it nonetheless. I laughed out loud.

    shooting-film super 8mm

    The projector scratching your film is an important consideration. But also consider this: you can still project your film AFTER you have it transferred - and nothing inspires you more to shoot film rather than video like seeing your film projected as a large image in the dark. So I say YES...
