    IndieTalk Weekly Challanges Proposal

    I love number three. Its a classic forum game that I've played before, but with a filmmaking twist. I really dig that idea.

    Hello from a young student!

    Thats what Rivers Cuomo nickname was. Or at least some form of that. Thats why he named the band "Weezer".

    what really winds me up!

    Twilight haters are more annoying than the Twilight fanatics. Not once have I run into someone saying "Oh my goooddd! Edward is so cutte". At least twice everyday someone proclaims proudly how they think that Edward is gay because he sparkles. With relish they describe Bella being a necrophiliac...

    Adding Humour to a Film?

    I've found that, much like what Cracker Funk said, trying to be funny is not funny. I made a short short once, (like 3 min long) and people laughed at all the wrong parts. The parts that I wrote in as "funny" turned out to not be funny at all. Like in "Father of the Bride". During the scene...

    Scariest Movies of All Time

    Ya know, I really didn't like "Paranormal Activity". The ending (which was, according to the link, was picked by Steven Spielberg, who I dislike. I know his movies such as "E.T." and stuff are classic, but I could never get into it.) was awful. Horror movies have an awful trend of ugly things...

    Venetian blinds are pretty film noir-ish. Put 'em over your key light.

    Day in Life of a Hot Dog

    Dude, thats pretty entertaining. Could use a little bit of editing grammar-wise. Other than that, its a pretty awesome concept.

    Every movie I've seen this year.

    Nooo! You watched The Human Centipede? That movie looks messed up. After seeing the preview, I probably couldn't even sit through the entire thing. I hate those kinds of horror movies. And why didn't Daybreakers get an F? That movie sucked! There was no part of that movie that I enjoyed.

    archived-videos Procrastination - Short stop-motion film

    Yeah, there is no way he set the timer on his camera and then ran around in front to position himself. I noticed the cars in the background, too. I thought it was kind of weird that they were moving so smoothly. I was expecting just a few frames where a car would flash across the road, but not...

    Which Movie Made You Decide To Become A Filmmaker?

    When I was in 7th grade I took a media class at my school. We published the school newspaper, did news broadcasts, learned about advertising techniques, and learned about film. The first film genre we learned about was film noir, and we watched "The Maltese Falcon". Then our project was to write...

    NYFA...

    I knew someone who went to the NYFA. For acting though. I haven't heard from her since. I hope you know that you don't need to have a degree in filmmaking to make films. If you take a couple of classes at your local community colleges or universities, you should be all set to make a movie. A...

    Should I buy a separate audio recorder w/ 60D?

    I use a laptop. I record the sound directly onto it so I can sync it later with the video. I don't have to mess around with transferring it off of DAT or whatever. I run the mics through a mixer first, though.

    What music do you listen to?

White Album is my favorite album of all time. 4. Jimi Hendrix - Again, all of it. 5. Alice in Chains - REAL grunge. 6. The Pixies -...

    editing free stock footage?

    Yeah. The Internet Archive, as wheatgrinder suggested, is the best place for free stock footage and stuff.

    editing A way to color black and white film stock?

    Back in the day, when the film was being edited, they had people actually paint the film to color a certain person or object. You can see examples of this in "The Great Train Robbery", which came out in 1903 and is often regarded as the first film with a plot. Anyways, you can probably digitally...

    If you doubt DSLR?

    I have to admit, when I first started hearing about them, I hated them. I thought that anything but a real camera was an awful way of shooting a film. But then I actually watched some short films people had done with them, and I love them. I still hate iPhone movies though. I've seen videos shot...
