    R.I.P. Blockbuster

    Inevitable wasn't it, I was surprised they were still hanging on when they closed a bunch of stores (most of them), one exists in my hometown still, although maybe not now. Last time I went in there I spoke to a nice lady who had been there since I was just a toddler, I used to go in with my...

    Aaah, too many tripods!

    I just bought one of these: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Manfrotto-MKC3-H01-Compact-Photo-movie-Kit/dp/B0049SVTXG/ref=sr_1_18?s=photo&ie=UTF8&qid=1366302141&sr=1-18&keywords=tripods I thought; good price, get the job done. Nah, I was very wrong. I am relatively a new filmmaker, however I have had...

    What exactly does a Producer do?

    That is all great information, I am definitely a lot clearer now, I see the place for a producer when a director wants to focus on the film rather than everything else, at this moment for my first short film I am the writer, director, producer, and line producer..

    What exactly does a Producer do?

    The title, basically. Every other role makes sense, apart from the producer. Does it help fund projects, is that basically it? Like a publisher? Confused :huh:

    low goal crowd funding rant!

    I feel that the topic of discussion disregards the fact that fundraising is difficult, no matter what the amount, you have to have a proven audience that might back you and support you, your family and friends only goes so far, and often you are possibly trying to raise funds from those who...

    archived-videos The Mutants

    Hi SirRandom, I kinda like the idea behind it, the video definitely has a 90s-esque comic feel to it, with the animated backgrounds and the huge amount of colour. The commentator gets annoying for me, he's very very loud and every other dialogue is so low, I was thinking he would of sound much...

    Client from hell... can i withdraw my offering?

    Been reading through this, it's interesting as it is definitely an experience which you will learn from and enlightens me to situations I could come across. I think in the future before any work is done everything needs to be written in a simple contract, including such things like "I, the...

    So, where can we compete?

    Thanks for the addition, I subscribe to their YT didn't bother checking the website, it's good that it allows you to select international as a sort option, didn't realise thought I had to go through the videos, thanks!

    So, where can we compete?

    I'm a relatively new filmmaker, and although I have some projects in progress and ones planned for this summer for myself to broaden my portfolio and experience, I have come across some video/film competitions and websites related to them. To me this seems like a good idea as a way to compete...

    Which Canon?

    Perhaps it's worth noting how I've got on: I ordered from DigitalRev a 32GB SD, the Canon EF 50mm, and a lightweight tripod. I ordered at weekend, and arrived today, so basically they sent the order out and it came within 1 working day which is great. Despite being extremely bubble wrapped, the...

    Which Canon?

    Thanks yeah I bought a lightweight one for now as I don't forsee any particular needs as of yet in windy conditions etc, most of what I will do will be handheld so I bought myself a stabilizer for some handheld filming :) Thanks for those tips, I'll probably attach a heavy backpack to the base...

    Which Canon?

    I bought some cheap lightweight tripod, had a look at the Manfrotto's they do look very decent I will keep my eye out for one at a bargain. As for more lenses I will definitely do that knightly, I found out about my local camera store which sells used lenses etc and I will definitely be snooping...

    Which Canon?

    Thanks for that, I'm not so sure I need a completely wide angle lens, maybe I shouln't have said that at all. I looked at the Tokina, way too pricy. I know lenses cost a lot and I should expect that, but I only have so much I can/would like to spend. I'm getting the 600D, which I have found for...

    Which Canon?

    Hi escher can I bug you again.. You provided me with a lot of help but I'm getting myself confused again, and I don't know what lenses to go for. I am getting the 600D. As a starter, I want to have a lens for wide angle, and one for intimate people interview style. Which two would you recommend...

    Which Canon?

    I've just found the Zoom H4N for a good refurb price on eBay for £160: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/290887971601?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649 I've asked if there's a warranty left on them and if there is I will bite the bullet and get myself a quality recorder in the H4N...

    Which Canon?

    I want to be able to have variation with as little equipment as possible, so a digital recorder seemed like a good idea as I can move it around if I need to or attach it to the DSLR. My flatmate actually just surprised me with a dictaphone he is not using, the Olympus DM-5, would this be of any...
