    Power Rangers

    I loved Power Rangers 2017. I believe it was meant primarily for the audience that dropped out after the original MMPR and always wanted to it on a mature level... because that's apparently cool... You weren't gonna get the niche audience because that in of itself is a small audience. It...

    Thanks for checking it out! The funny part is that since we started doing the 48 Hour Project about 8 years ago, we've always joked and were afraid that we were gonna get musical. Even on the day of we joked that we were gonna get it. And then boom, we got it. But rather than straying away we...

    [May 15] What are you working on this week?

    And that's the sucky part hahah. Thankfully I've always been a fairly fast editor. What helps is being the one that's both the camera operator and editor so I'm already editing in my head as I shoot.

    archived-videos What makes this 93 sec film seem amateurish?

    Youtubes auto-stabilization is skewing our point of view but even if it didn't have it, a lot of it has to do with the framing and acting. Most of the shots were too wide with a lot of dead space. Editing wise I thought it was fine.

    Use only industry cameras to get a major film distributor?

    I may be wrong but I believe parts if not all of Sin City was shot on a Panasonic DVX100 MiniDV.

    editing Question about a room tone problem.

    Shorten the front and end of the room tone, copy it from there, and then crossfade it. When you don't shorten the audio and apply the crossfade, then there's no actual audio to crossfade with.

    editing Question about making 16:9 into 2.35:1.

    Oh wow. I feel like an idiot. I don't know why I never thought of making black bars as a PNG file. I usually had a *.prtl set aside for said situations.

    Question about audio playback in premiere pro.

    As Walter said, the fill left and fill right option would be the better choice as you can isolate the audio that way.

    You can either use balance or fill left/right

    Question about using masks in After Effects

    I could only assume that you're trying to do a 3D comp and it's exporting at 2D which won't show correctly. It's weird. Again, this is all assumptions, We can't know without you showing us.

    Does anyone know any good places to order gas blowback guns for movie making?

    How long are you holding the trigger? Glocks are the only airsofts that I'm aware of that are full auto.

    How is this script for a short film project?

    I really want to see you shoot under 48-Hour Film Festivals standards. Get a genre, a line, and a characters, make the scipt, film, and edit it within 48 hours. Deadlines need to be met. Your lack of confidence and sternness to get everything correct the first time around, is what's holding you...

    Premiere Pro is stretching the footage for some reason.

    You see that little thing right there? Uncheck it.
