    Seperate audio vs recording straight to dv tape.

    Thank you A.A. I decided to go with the suggestions you gave and got these items. Audio Technica AT8022 Fostex FR2-LE and I just got in today and can't wait to play with it. Now all I need to round out my sound equipment is a pair of decent headphones and sound gear is ready for production...

    favorite Top 5 Favorite Films of All Time?

    I've posted this once before but I'll play again. 5. The Bad News Bears (the original) - They just don't make films like they use to. PG in the 70's was great. 4. Heathers - Well crafted film and story. 3. Babe - Beside a incredible story and look to the film, it always makes me cry at the...

    Something I was once told...

    So I guess a good dilemma isn't that important. :hmm: And please let me repost this again because the word dilemma is constantly being used incorrectly. di·lem·ma   /dɪˈlɛmə/ Show Spelled[dih-lem-uh] Show IPA –noun 1. a situation requiring a choice between equally undesirable alternatives...

    MORE REBOOTS! And MORE VIDEO GAME MOVIES

    Why didn't you listen to me the last time you posted this? The simple answer is money and familiarity. Now why not ask a new question on this board like, "Why don't you watch the Academy Awards and/or why do you think it's a sham?” or "Why is it that behind the camera during a film shoot is it...

    Hello! How to get that "look" on your films and home videos?

    Might I say that this forum has a lot of hints for the trade but you have to look around? If you take the time and look at every thread you will more then likely find what you're looking for and MORE. I debated if I should post a link from with in this thread because by doing so I'm not...

    Shooting "Guerilla style" w/out getting sued?

    Not to restart what sounded like a meltdown but if you don't mind I wouldn't mind hitting on this quote. Why just one idea? Sounds to me you should focusing on your classes first, come up with a ton of ideas throughout the semester and then push forward for a Guerilla style film (didn't read...

    Found Letter - microshort #2

    I'm sorry, no typo. Meaning, if the story is good and I have to read ten cent words throughout then I will. If the story is not grabbing me and the damn thing is filled with all these words I have to look up then I would rather set it down and move on. I don't have time to do homework. I've...

    Found Letter - microshort #2

    I have not read the story but I did like what this person said. I think it was Karl Iglesias who said (and many others in the past too) a screenplay should be easy to read. As if a junior high student could pick it up and read everything without having to look something up. I know there are...

    How Difficult to Shoot This?

    Not too expensive depending on the budget. You can get green screens pretty cheap from this group. Not the best but should get you by for a few shoots. http://www.skaeser.com/servlet/Categories?category=BACKGROUNDS:CHROMAKEY Now the tough part with using a screen (or wall for that matter) is...

    Best way to learn how to draw for Storyboards?

    Okay, I'll be the first to throw myself under the bus. Yes, I use stick figures for storyboards. As long as I am the director of DOP I will use stick figures for my SB because I suck at drawing. As for a close up I do give a try to make it look a little sexy but normally it comes out like...

    Script Ideas

    Not to be the downer person here but I'll question the material you are trying to push. First story - I guess I don't have enough information to really know if I would like it or not. How would this movie be filmed? Would it be a B flick? What kind of budget are you looking at? But the...

    Upgrading to HD from Canon XL2...

    I would agree, and I've seen the price for about $3500 online. Here is one location you can get it cheap. http://totalprodigital.com/home/product_info.php?products_id=112&osCsid=bca6e6ffb9ef089be147536d42cc17a3 I would rent both cameras for the weekend and test them out. Take as much footage...

    editing Adding camera movement in Post. Are there any issues?

    hahahaha...:lol:...I was going to say the exact same thing. When you watched any video (you know, VHS back in the day) before widescreen TVs came out and they didn't have the option of widescreen on the menu for the movie, then you have seen this. It use to be debated in the past on the effect...

    First lights

    The fresnels looks to be a good deal and you get some extra globes with them which is sweet. You can do what 2001P said or you might be able to get away with a background support with some sand bags too. But I'm sure you will need some clamps to make sure the are held down well if they are...
