I know they are from the same universe, and I didn't mean Spiderman or Deadpool. I've meant Avengers and X-Men. I don't know how can they be involved in the same story, and how they live in the same world. I think the entire Marvel universe is full of contradictions. As I mentioned above...

People with no full time jobs? Heh... It depends on what city you live in. I live in Israel, in an industrial city of Ashkelon. Many times I come to Tel Aviv, the biggest city in Israel. You know what is the difference between those two? When you come to Tel Aviv in the middle of the day, you...

Well, then, perhaps I was mislead.

Can I also list animated movies? If yes, then: 1) The Dark Knight 2) Slumdog Millionaire 3) Terminator 2 4) Titanic 5) Matrix 6) The Dumb and the Dumber (the old one) 7) Lord of the Rings Trilogy (not the Hobbit!) 8) Resident Evil 2 9) Ratatoille 10) Princess of Mononoke

This is what one sound operator said to me when I asked him about wind and planes, that they are not an issue. He used that blimp. And yes, he was a hired professional, so I guess he knew what to do about that. I didn't go into details with it.

When you're a big professional, nobody's gonna care what your opinions are. The questions begins when you're not, and when there are many just like you, non professionals, who have been in some productions as Co-Something. Or even when you are an established Camera or Sound Operator or...

How can you possibly put X-Men and Avenger into the same story? In X-Men, mutants are outlaws, hunted by the government. In Avengers, the same mutants are heroes. Well, not all of them. But to the rest of the people it makes no difference, whether powers come from biological mutation, alien...

What do you think is better, to be the right one, or to be the smart one? I can tell them what I think about their "education", but should I? :) Of course it is possible. Everything is possible. But people's top priority is to collaborate will people with the same opinions as theirs. This is...

I didn't like Avengers because of it's LOOOONG action scenes at the end. Continuous actions made me fall asleep. I hope they won't do the same in this one.

One of the most important things in Filmmaking is networking. The more people you befriend, the easier it is to get a casting crew when you want to film something. Those who act like chameleons will have it easier to get a casting crew. People always like those who share the same opinions and...

OMG drones flying by on the street? :hmm: I'm calling Will Smith. "I, Robot" has begun. :)

Our biggest problems were people who were coming and shouting, - "Wow!!! Are you shooting a movie?!" :lol:

I know someone in Israel who makes a good salary by giving his apartment for rent for filming :D

It somehow turned out that every soundman we filmed with were actually people from the industry, who were sound operators as their job. That's why I never heard of planes making troubles. Helicopters do, planes not.

I've never seen anyone without those things on the mic/boom :blush:

Then you'll have to pay to a professional sound editor to fix that. And why didn't you think of it in the beginning? I remember 3 weeks ago we were filming in a city suburb area. We had to spread along almost 200 meters to stop cars and people to enter the area. Moreover, we made sure there were...

For the last 2 month I'm working with filmmaking students on their films on various positions. Those people like to talk about movies (obviously:)). Me too. But then I see them saying exactly the same things about certain movies. And it happens that they all watch videos of professional critics...

Well, that's encouraging :)

I'm afraid I'm going to have the same problem too. I didn't plan to shoot something mine yet, I still join students' films whenever I can (students can also be very selective!). So I see how many people volunteer to such productions, even people who actually WORK in the industry. And then I ask...

Thanks, I think this is helpful. I'm just not sure what the "Lens" column means.
