After effects has proven to be a little more complicated than I thought to learn from the help section. Anyone have any suggestions on tutorials, CDs, or books? Also, a premiere pro version to help with the title creator would be nice also. Thanks.

You "coouuld" be using your energy writing or filimg something, or you could get a couple guys that are routinely f*ing people over really mad and upset, but stay on the phone for the hope of a sale. That's like being able to whip a thirsty man (everytime he reached for the water) that is tied...

After reading some of the horrid experiences of these guys at Express Camera's, I am going to call them, drag the order on and on, get them really wound up, get their hopes up, and hopefully keep them on the phone as long as I can. I will F* with them for a while, a couple weeks maybe, for...

Alright, I am in the process of buying a new camera. The industry standard for performance and quality is the DVX100a, and I have been researching them. I am getting a couple of different prices from different places? jr.com sells for- $ 2899.88 after a $500.00 rebate. jr.com...

What kind of money are we talking about in the advertising field? I would imagine a good animation setup is need as well?

Is the amount worth it though?

I had not thought of the possibilty of eventually focusing all of your time into advertising. I also suppose owning your own business is a way that you don't have to bend over backwards for someone else; why would anyone want to?

I wouldn't be so worried about confusing someone, I would be worried about losing business based upon some of the content associated with the company. Sometimes something that is about drugs or violence or sex, could tarnish your image, thus making a prospective client choose another.

True, but Disney is a massive and well established company. When trying to get as much exposure for your works, how do you suggest going about that?

Great, thanks. I guess creating an entity that is more focused on the possibly offenseive stuff would be wiser. You do consulting? What do you do exactly?

I have a just started a production company; mainly to make my own films to get exposure and showcase my talent, and the easiest way to do that I would imagine is to start my own company. I eventually just want to write. To pay the bills I was going to focus on Commercials and advertising...

Ok, that makes sense, since I was only experimenting with spare footage. Thanks for the info :)

That is what I thought, However, when I adjusted my settings I got alot of color where I didn't want the color to be.

I was interested if anybody knows what method the movies like Sin City and Schindler's List used to pull color out of a B&W video.

Wow, loved the editing. The switches were seamless and blended great. The text animation was quite nice as well. After effects? Also, how did you get such a great picture? It didn't look like most of the video's posted. Maybe it was the natural light? I have seen the DVX-100a and your pictures...

I have done a time laps video before. However I just sped it up using Premiere. I guess the quickie cheaters way to do it. And to think of it, it did take a long time to render. But since I am here, and we are talking about this. I am new to the effects part. I have been doing a lot of editing...

I use Premiere and am trying to alter the color settings to get a dark demented look to visualize the manic attitude of the scene. However I have been uanble to alter the video to get the desired feel. Has anyone here ever tried that type of thing? If yes, what did you use?

Well, I am aware it takes a bit of power on your machine to take the HD from the camera. My HD is only 60 gb but I was thinking of using a external HD. I run a Vaio with a P-M 160 with 1000mb RAM. I use Premeire Pro 7 with after effects. I can't find a HD preset in Premiere though. Can Premiere...

Can anyone tell me what would give me the better picture, or explain some positives and negatives to each camera. I was looking at a Panasonic dvx100a or a Sony HDR-FX1 HDV Handycam. I am hoping to find the best camera in or around the price range of those two cameras. Thanks,

Thankyou for the responses. Also, if anyone knows of a webring that links independant film makers websites I would appreciate it if you would post it. I am interested in starting a website and exposing my films to a larger audience. There may even be a section on here for just that. If you...
