    Colour Correction for Trailer!

    I'd love to do it, I've been color correcting and grading for six years. Sounds like a fun project.

    Check out our Teaser Trailer

    I think the teaser isn't much of a teaser and not a proper trailer either. My problem with it, is that it's too slow for the progression that occurs on screen and that this is hinted as an action/suspense film. The pacing doesn't suit the atmosphere. There is a lot of text/logo time as opposed...

    editing Adobe Premier now crashing.

    You're not really giving us a lot of info on how or when it crashes. So except for Mile's idea, here are a few other, random, things you may try: 1. If you have any external plug-ins, try uninstalling them and see if it works. 2. If you have a custom folder in the EFFECTS tab, or a lot of open...

    About External Monitor For Camera

    The way I usually do it, is rent 2 monitors (or 3 if I have rigs like a gib or crane). One monitor is any kind of computer screen (Best if it's battery powered). This will be the director's monitor. It need to be big enough to properly see the actor's performance. If you get a better monitor...

    About External Monitor For Camera

    Joshua, that isn't true. While a portable DVD player would work for many people, a professional monitor gives you a few extras. 1. It has precise color and contrast, so you can see a closer image to what you are actually shooting. As opposed to a cheap screen, where color and contrast is far...

    Am I actually any good?

    You seem to be in a place a lot of fortunate people are. Yes, fortunate. You actually have the time and own a camera to go out and try things out. You are probably very knowledgeable for your age in film making. The first thing to do, is not to take this so seriously. Enjoy it, enjoy the doing...

    Can't import into Davinci Resolve Lite

    Resolve does like to act fishy on Windows with some formats. Some times the same file will show up while at other times it wont. This seems to happen with the H.264 codec. There is a very active forum for Resolve at Creative Cow: http://forums.creativecow.net/davinci You may find some experts...

    cinematography Saturated blue sky

    A polariser is something that can be found on many sunglasses. If you own a good brand, there is a chance you have polariser in it. Did you even notice, when looking through your sunglasses, and turning your head sideways, a lot of digital screens become dark? It's a filter that works...

    cinematography Saturated blue sky

    It could be many types of cameras, but seeing as there is a lot of shadows, it seems that this was either done with a high ND filter and/or closed aperture.

    archived-videos [Trailer] Crowdfunded Superhero Feature Avery and Pete

    Hey man, I'm already envious by the mere fact he made a feature. :) Also, it is a great show-reel, love the Machinarium music! ;) I keep hoping to eventually find my way to the U.S as it has more opportunity than my country.

    archived-videos [Trailer] Crowdfunded Superhero Feature Avery and Pete

    I can tell the ones that I noticed, if I missed any, it's just because they where properly composed. Most VFX look good enough in there, I'm just being an annoying nitpicker :) The one that stood out the most was when Avery opens his palm and there is a halo of fire around it. (And is probably...
