    editing who owns the music?

    Agree with all the above - it HAS to be detailed in the contract. While there are different practices (low budget productions vs. big companies etc.) but the important guideline to follow is - various licensing rights taken from the author, should be well reflected in the sum he gets. And...

    How do I...?

    +1 for the right montage and right music. I think you actually should play with the cut, till you come up with something that works. Not necessarily the way you planned it in theory.

    archived-videos Some stuff I've made

    Maybe a tiny bit of volume reduction, and definitely some good orchestral verb. Stereo width of an orchestra also suggests whether it is close, or further away - I guess your widening effort made it sound closer a bit. Great job though!

    archived-videos Some stuff I've made

    Hi Jaded! Thanks for sharing your work, liked both of them, and the Hollywoodish idea is fun indeed, but its a pitty that the epic music gets over the top a bit. Wish you would also introduce a bit of space/distance to the background music, and maybe narrow the stereo field a bit, cause...

    May I Post Serious Question About Directing Erotica? It's About This..

    Lurking past of Indietalk readers is your serious concern? :) Jokes aside though, and for the future discussions you might start with anyone about the subject, best to make yourself, and your project the first talking point, not pushing anyone to talk about themselves. This is not to say I...

    editing Post Production Exterior Architectural Visualization Photoshop

    Hi Gagan! Its nice looking project, and good graphics, just small note on the audio - wish you could pick a background tune with less prominent hits, cause they interfere with the flow of your speech, and rest of the music is barely heard... -

    Hi Nyati! From my own experience, Audiojungle is the most effective market for indie creators today. You are welcome to check out my portfolio in the signature below, or go beyond. The prices are fair in my view, and the quality guidelines become more strict by the day. -

    Flix Premiere Enters Indie Talk

    Hello folks! Your VOD service looks interesting - is it fully available worldwide? (contrary to the famous service which has become a joke in some countries, with > 10% content available).

    editing Audio - Cold with Echo? - How To Make Better

    Hi payperfilm! I believe you might try to just bring it all out in front a bit - some compression, eq etc. I allowed myself to download the bit and make a quick example to illustrate what I mean.

    plot Does a love interest, have to be part of the main plot in this case?

    I`d suggest you try to get something more special from this "love interest" plotline, than just "ok to leave it". Maybe try to question the real feelings character has, and play with some darker motives to spice things up, or maybe a crossroads thing. As a viewer, I always enjoy films that...

    Do you think that streaming services has made distribution tougher for

    In my understanding, it ain`t progress, if it doesn`t hurt anything, or anyone. -

    Hi all, Italian Filmaker

    Dramatic stuff :) Just one note on the sound department - all the SFX sounds were clearly made indoors, and no postwork to remedy that. Sorry to say, but matched with outdoors visuals, it sounds unpleasant. Thanks for sharing with us, and best wishes. -

    cinematography Is this shot out of focus?

    I am sure the tech guys could chime in on this, but are you sure, that in action movies they actually shoot those fast turns in 24fps? I know that slow motion was shot in faster rate for ages, so it could be slowed down. Maybe there is a similar trick for what you describe? -

    cinematography Is this shot out of focus?

    Frankly, the movement is a bit unpleasant to watch, sorry to say that. I`d use only 0:08-0:11, and a few seconds at the end. -

    editing Is there anything I can do about this continuity problem possibly?

    I think you should get the most of what you have - just like the client says. Try thinking of an overal concept your video should have, tempo, mood etc. and apply post-production tools to achieve that mood and pace. And some music to make it all work, of course ;) Hope it works out. - - -

    Natural filmmaking without rehersals?

    I urge you all folks to see this movie, if you can get it with subs (its Russian originally) "Success" 1985 http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0199120/ Sometimes your project transforms you, your life, your actor`s lives, or even a whole theater. Its not just about reciting your lines.

    Happy New Year everybody! As mentioned in my other post here, my holidays were spent on creating a promotional animation clip, which talks about Giuseppe Verdi music tracks I have done recently. The clip is on youtube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ebbvaQag-PY But in fact, there was a...

    How should Disney/Lucasfilm portray Leia?

    I don`t think recasting would go well with "please the old fanbase" direction the VII movie had. If next one is done filming, they will have plenty of time to rewrite the third movie scenario accordingly.

    Greeting folks! Thanks to the quiet holidays season, I`ve managed to create a first promotional video for my music tracks, which are distributed on Audiojungle (I have another ongoing thread about it here). The clip uses music from my catalog, and visuals I`ve created in animation software...
