Hey Rayw, Completely agree with you.... I think directors are scared against their reputation sometimes for pushing the boundaries that bit further with regards to sex in film except for Lars Von Trier and possibly David Cronenberg. It just baffles me its such an ingrained part of culture and...

Hi Guys, Just wanted to get a little debate going and gauge peoples thoughts about the role of sex in cinema (not porn). This area of film has always intrigued me, nto only because im a red blooded male haha but because of the taboo associated with it... 2 quick examples I can think of...

I would be interested in grading this aswell

Im guessing you are thinking about freelancing for film... however I freelance in the corporate film world and let me tell you its bloody hard! I started off doing stuff for free, then i decided if i could earn the same amount in a day as a regular job I would be happy but quickly learnt I...

Hi Guys, I wrote a script last year and over xmas it was with a professional screenwriter, who today got back to me with his draft, I was very impressed and am now subsequently looking to work with a storyboard artist. If you are one or know of someone and would like to know more details. Get...

I think it would be interesting for everyone to see what each others work flows are? Do you scout locations before you cast? Are you contually rewriting the script right up until you shoot? Things like that. Mine is loosely: -Write Script -Re-Draft it -Send it off to be looked at by Screen...

Hi Guys, I have posted a new blog... starting to feel the pressure as people are genuinely intrigued as what I will do now! aagggghhhh http://the50filmproject.wordpress.com/blog/ Rayw good question... I am hoping the films/videos will be between 4-7 minutes and the first one will be uploaded...

I have a 600d/t3i and i rented a 35mm Samyang Cine prime, before I hired it i loved the image quality people had gotten out of it. However the when I rented it, there was a problem with my t3i recognising the lens and when it did the exposure metering was completely off.... After much research...

Its interesting you brought this subject up, as i was just going to write a blog post about how ML is an essential program for me. I was cautious about installing it, but so glad I did. Never heard any problems from anyone using it, only slight problem I have incurred is sometimes it...

Thanks guys, Once again, the response has been great. The main reason for doing this really is I sat here this time last year with so many grand plans for 2012, films I wanted to produce, Places I wanted to go... but without a definitive plan or set goals and timeframes they didn't materialise...

Thanks for all your kind words.... I am hoping to produce a variety of films including narrative, documentary, artistic and timelapse

Haha, thanks Phil, its a very daunting task and may well fall flat on its arse so to speak. Although I have done a good amount of corporate work i still feel stunted on my creative and personal side, so this will hopefully help that.

Hi Guys, So I have finally decided to get off my butt, stop procrastinating and film some stuff, learn from it, rinse and repeat as many people quote on here. Taking inspiration from Preston Kanak a Filmmaker from Saskatchewan, Canada (whom I have spoke with) who made a film a day in 2010, I...

Hey LDS First time I used the YMCA it was a sunday and they charged me £20 for an hour but i pretty much had as long as i wanted in the room as long as it wasn't booked out for anyone else... 2nd time again was on a sunday and was free, as they knew me now. I just called them up directly

I have a similar but different problem if that makes sense!! haha I set up a youtube account years ago with my business email address and have used it a lot for corporate work etc. Then about a year ago I set up a throwaway Gmail account, it was an account i was going to use for signing up to...

I am not sure about LOndon but here in Cambridge I use the Local YMCA as they have meeting rooms and i know you said you had no budget but they are very very cheap!

LIFE OF PI - 10/10 Well where do i start with this film? Probably one of the best cinema going experiences I have had. The film will resonate emotionally with everyone who sees it on one level or another. The cinematography is simple sublime with every shot a splendour to watch. The story...

Hi Steve, Thanks for our input, i appreciate it! and i certainly have no definitive answer! haha With regards to The Cabin in The Woods, I just meant it took a different angle on the Slasher Genre but kept similar elements to allow it to stand apart from the rest. I guess my main question is...

Firstly.... I love horror films especially slashers. Nightmare on Elm Street, Friday 13th, Halloween, Black Christmas.... you name it ive seen it. I would love to make a slasher film, but the one point that always puts me off is that the sub genre is sooo over saturated. Is it ok to try and...

Some film makers have made a very good career out of just using a camera phone... (see the "Great Camera Shootout 2012"). If thats not where you want to start thats fine... but its a great place to start without spending loads of cash
