I enjoyed it. I like the music for the most part, especially when walking out the door at 6:35. It actually made me laugh a bit. The story is interesting and the acting was decent, especially considering the green screen. I liked the pacing a bit more in the beginning and the editing was pretty...

Yeah, I would appreciate if you could send me a picture of how you did it. The idea about mirrors is interesting. The TV I'm using is mounted to the wall, but I could cheat by using a different TV to get it in the shot. I agree that OTS shots are over used, however, I feel like audiences are...

I'm making a short where I have having a discussion with AI that is on a computer screen. Normally when two characters are talking, you would do an over the shoulder shot of who is talking. Can I still achieve this same technique when I am talking to the TV/robot? I want the audience to have a...

Awesome video. The acting is pretty solid, the pacing was good, editing felt on point. I think you got some good pointers of creating suspense towards the end. Keep it up!

But this is a blockbuster film... It's my personal preference that less is more when it comes to trailers. I feel as too many trailers give too much away, which I feel takes away from the experience while watching the film. One of my favorite trailers ever was the teaser to Gravity. I happened...

I'm not sure if this goes without saying, but the first scene is really too dark to see anything. I didn't like the shot of the mustard/yellow bottle with the actor blurred. The scene right after that starting at 3:33 was also too dark on the actors face. The story was pretty entertaining. I...

I also only watched the first one. I would say that the pacing was a little too slow for my taste. I felt each scene lasted a little too long, and often skipped forward by 10 or so seconds. The last scene is definitely the kicker! Well done.

I live in Rogers, AR. It doesn't seem like there is much of a film scene here. Is there anyone in the Fayetteville/Ozark area at all?

I'm pretty new to IT and I just came across this thread. I've only watches two scenes, and I have to say, I'm pretty impressed. The acting is actually really good! It's kind of funny because last night I was watching the Star Wars UNCUT fan film put together by Lucus Films. This project is...

I'm pretty ignorant when it comes to the business side of film, but where would you go to sell something like this? Does a news station buy it? The organization who threw the festival? How do you go about finding buyers?

I'm looking at buying a Datacolor Spyder to calibrate my monitor, and I'm wondering if those calibration settings are stored on my computer or on the actual monitor itself. The reason I ask is I'm wondering if when I plug my camera directly in to my camera, will it keep all of my color...

When you say a composite, are you referring to overlaying a screen capture by applying a mask to the TV in post? Maybe this post belongs in the noob section :D WalterB, thanks for explaining the refresh rate/shutter speed. That makes sense. However, I'm really looking for that really crisp...

I've been searching the internet/these forums/youtube trying to find the answer, but I have had no success. I assume it is because I am not phrasing my question correctly. I'm wondering what are the techniques to record a TV/smartphone screen to get that real life sharp image. In other words...

Is he the only one? Did I just happen to stumble upon the best?

I've never really watched many behind the scenes features in big budget films because they are usually geared towards your average movie goer and not towards people interested in film making. I just watched behind the scenes of Sin City and I enjoyed it more than most I have seen. So my...

And this is exactly why I chose the username that I have on these forums. I initially thought about posting the video on YouTube and trying to be "anonymous" about it, but at this point, I don't think it would work. The only other thing I can think of is putting a fat disclaimer at the beginning...

I came across this website called agoodmovietowatch.com which finds movies that have good ratings on IMDB and rotten tomatoes, but did poorly at the box office. They also have a Netflix filter. That site led me to Mr. Nobody, which is an odd, but excellent film. I also second Hell, and while we...

Thanks for the comments. I like the idea of making a scene from a movie. Until then I guess I will be waiting to get inspired again...

So if I understand you correctly, you are saying because of the difficult nature of the trade, go big or go home? I didn't write the script with the intentions of other people seeing it, so it's not pretty. here is the link: https://app.box.com/s/eutp56xoc2g98n6ew5ew It is supposed to be a...

So what happens when you aren't inspired? Say, the day before yesterday? Do you just not work on anything until you do get inspired? Since I am so new to this hobby, I feel like I could still be creating small videos to get better in the craft so that when I do get inspired, I will be better at...
