Hi there! I'm not 100% sure I understand the problem, but I do use Edius 6 so maybe I can help. When I was using Premiere and Vegas I would have to transcode my Quicktime MOV (Canon 7D) files into an uncompressed AVI for easier editing, as they couldn't handle them natively. But with Edius I...

Aaaaaannnnd it would be cool had I scrolled down to see Ernest's reply. LOL! So yeah... what Ernest said. :)

As long as the files are sequentially-name/numbered (ie. "PIC001.JPG", "PIC002.JPG", "PIC003.JPG", etc...), you should be able to import "images as sequence" in most apps. I know it works in Premiere, After Effects, Edius and (I'm pretty sure) Vegas. Once imported it's a matter of telling the...

Cool stuff, man! Not sure if you've looked into some of the stop-motion software available now, but onion skinning / overlay goes a long way in keeping things smooth since you can see your current frame as the character's being positioned vs. the frame(s) you just shot. It's kinda hard to...

Hrm... what about "127 Hours"? Is that along the lines of what you had in mind?

You may wanna try an ASCAP/BMI search to get the publisher contact info.

Very good point, Wheat! The shipping is such that you'll want to get a handful when you order. I got 10 of the first batch.

shortrunposters.com I received my prints from shortrunposters.com. Overall, I'm satisfied with the quality, especially considering the price of $4.97 each. (As a comparison, I was looking at paying $18 each from the supplier we use for business stuff.) They are quite matte if you go with the...

Flicker! Don't know how I missed this! Thanks for the feedback! I actually made up some weathered, wooden "Monster" / "Warning" signs, which appear in the film. But on a poster would it maybe feel too much like Monsters or District 9? Just thinking out loud. That is another possibility...

indiSYSTEM has some sliders available here: http://www.indisystem.com/sliders/ I have their indiSLIDERmini Deluxe ($169) and have enjoyed using it. Typically mounted to the top of my tripod, but sometimes used on the floor or a table, etc. Here's one of the first tests I did with it...

Yeah... running Phantom Power/48v will sho 'nuf put the hurt on some batteries. I was buying copper-tops left and right but now I try to keep some AA rechargeables in rotation. Didn't expect the performance to be great, but so far they've held up well (or at least comparable to their...

HA! ;) JoshL: Thanks, man! Interesting way to look at it. :)

Thanks for the feedback, Dready! I'm not a fan of scary movies either. There'll be suspense in parts, and a dose of violence/conflict... but no gore.

The company is ShortRunPosters.com. Like I said, I just ordered a few test prints yesterday, so the verdict is still out on first-hand experience. (Though I did check out some reviews ahead of time: A couple negatives on turnaround but quality is reportedly good for the price.) I'll post...

Directorik: Man, it's good to hear this because I really DON'T want to appear in any way conceited or whatever. Like I said, I'm avoiding intro titles (Frank Ladner Presents... a film by Frank Ladner... in association with... etc.) Heh. Although I recently set up a "production company" I'm...

Ha ha! I reckon so. ;) I was initially going for a single poster, as prints are fairly expensive (around $18/ea. for 18x24 from the print shop I use... and this seems pretty comparable to others) and I wanted to avoid the extra expense of having multiple masters. BUT... just yesterday I...

Richy, thank you for the feedback! It is indeed a mockumentary film, so there will be lots of interview / "talking head" footage throughout. I suppose in that way the actor pics may be somewhat appropriate. Good point there. Thank you, sir! :)

That's pretty close to what I would have said... It's a tradeoff between quality vs. viewer potential. I do like how Vimeo videos embed on websites (and I've got the freebie/basic account... I think the paid accounts offer more flexibility.)

Hey Cracker! Well to be honest, the main reason I'm including the cast pictures in the poster is for them. The film itself is a different story: No intro titles; cold start. It just gets right into it since there are no recognizable names anywhere in this thing. Not even a "Directed By"...

Nick: Thanks so much, man! The tagline was actually from one of the teaser clips, which was later made into a song for the film. Heh. :) Ernest and Rayw: Thanks for the feedback, guys! I know where you're coming from. Even had a personal filmmaker friend say the same thing... that the...
