    sound Question about booming with a hyper.

    To be totally honest it just sounds like you are making issues for yourself, stop trying to complicate things. Use the mic the director wants and sounds good ...and just get on with it!

    Lets just hope the Films being made are as creative as some of the excuses being used in this thread. :D

    BERBERIAN SOUND STUDIO - Sounds incredible, looks great, final third fizzles out fast - 7/10 SYMPATHY FOR MR VENGEANCE - Not as sharp as his later films, but some fantastic moments and great sound design. 7.5/10

    cinematography The cinematography of Drive

    I find the idea of a distributer dictating what frame rate they want a film to be in bizarre... isn't it like a record label saying to a band "Nice tune but we need it in the key of A"... H44 - like RayW says do more tests but please for the love of god! stop whipping the camera around so...

    Thoughts on 'Primer'

    I loved Primer. Recently rewatched it and STILL loved it. Probably my favourite time travel film The way they handled the science aspect of the script was superb, it's difficult to follow whats actually being said... but what's being said isn't important, how the 'device' works isn't...

    The Iceman - Not quite sure how you can take the true story of a real life hitman with 100+ hits and turn it into a film as depressingly dull and slow as this. Michael Shannon plays his role with a fine range of one dimensional grunts and nods it was almost like watching Bales Batman, not quite...

    Mifunes Last Song - Superb, start to finish!!! A film about facing up to your past and a love story that will charm yr pants off. Excellent acting and direction. Totally different from the previous Dogme films. The bonus film of the directors experience of US Film festivals is pretty funny too...

    The Idiots - Quite funny in places, quite tragic in others. Didn't think it was as absolutely outrageous as it's made out to be...the penetrative sex bit was more shocking than the 'spassing'. Film-wise it was more than enjoyable but the ending lacked the usual viseral punch (sic) that many of...

    Hunger - grim dirty and quite riveting, especially the portrayal of the various guards and police. Fassbender zings throughout and the 17minute single shot scene with Liam Cunningham is blast of acting brilliance. Enjoyed McQueen pushing the limits of shot length. A fascinating story from one of...

    Can I make a DIY slider that hooks onto a tripod?

    Both of those shots look more Up>Down than side-to-side. Are you sure you mean "slider" and not "jib"???

    Adobe no longer selling software!

    Have been on the cusp of switching from FCP to PremPro/AE in the past few months now looks like I'll have to stick with FCP for mean time. Not sure if I've dodged a bullet or missed an opportunity here.... Always like to get my hands on an actual disc. The CC options seem very expensive for a...

    Contagion - Doing a Soderbergh catch up, this was OK. Bit of a schmooze fest with all the A Listers in there for no particular reason... A solid 7 Thirst - Park Chan-Wooks Vampire film... Pretty cool, not as visually awesome as Cyborg or Stoker but had some pretty cool and funny moments. Sound...

    Soderbergh on the "State of Cinema" at SFIFF

    Yeah agree really interesting piece. Disappointing to see comments on a lot of websites criticizing him for not having 'solutions' to these problems and even worse anger at his defense of Creativity costing money from what are obviously torrent downloaders. Is he retiring from the business...

    The Devil's Backbone/Guillermo Del Toro

    I am withdrawing my skepticism for Pacific Rim the new trailer looks pretty epic and dark and weird in all the right proportions. http://youtu.be/zA92Rw6kNWw
