    archived-videos Mustang Justice -- Our 1st Movie

    Good premise, as said before, with the Mustang thieves becoming horse thieves. As someone who is on a Sergio Leone western kick and trying to produce a modern day western short film myself I liked waching this. This would be a tough genre to draw as cinema doesn't do westerns hardly at all...

    archived-videos College Life

    Good words from Christopher. Filmmaking isn't about "do and don't" lists, it's about visually telling a story. To do this there are many tools at your disposal, some work for YOUR story, some don't. You learn this over time with experience.

    I used this structure to ge me through some plot complications on my short film and it made me think enough to tighten up my story. My final story didn't follow this structure exactly but it made me ask questions that I hadn't considered when trying to work with a strict time limit.

    Round 2 - Rules & Details (Please Read)

    Nothing to do with the Patriot Act but you were close when you mentioned in the vein of 1984 and Metropolis. But you did confirm my thinking that the final result would be a sci fi genre film. Is it it a utopian society, the viewer will decide that! I will be tracking progress of my film on...

    Round 2 - Rules & Details (Please Read)

    Would the bending of political science count as an imagined science? Say a law was created/misconstrued that was aimed to making a controlable utopian society in some shape or form (in the future) and a character had to come to grips with that and their potential to change or alter that...

    Thanks for sharing Zensteve. I like the idea behind this structure. Did you post this before? I remember printing this out and trying it with an idea I had to see if i fit into the nice neat package.

    What to name my new Ferret

    No, that is an actual M-16 A2 rifle. I am in the Air Force and they let me play every now and then, as long as I train them in the process of killing them.

    What to name my new Ferret

    Its a emitter. When you fire a blank round the pressure sets off the emitter firing a laser. The students and the bad guys wear harnesses with laser sensors to let us know when we have been killed. It is an expensive over glorified laser tag system-but too much damn fun when you're killing...

    How long is that DVD? $99 is a big chunk of change. I've read a plethora of websites that deal with light. They don't get into the detail this DVD does I'm assuming but it is one of those, can I learn through experimenting or will that $99 immediately pay off. I've considered buying it...

    I just had an interesting thought on this... If this would have been Brad Pitt getting caught doing this or captain of the football team, it would have been cool. No one would have said anything. But, let it be a hefty, kid who has eccentric tastes in his entertainment and people would...

    I tried going to the link for the newspaper story but I couldn't get to it. I did a search for "pizza the movie" and I saw on the results where it came up but when I clicked the link I got a completly different story. Can you re-post a direct link?

    Had a time finding the Star Wars Kid one. Most sites had removed the link I guess do to his parents lawsuit. Some other self professed "geeks" raised money to buy him a laptop, and there are a few sites petitioning for him to have a part in Star Wars III. I didn't start laughing on the Star...
