Thanks trueindie and FormerDominator! @trueindie, that's a good point as to who do we think will be donating. Our target audience will be men and women between 18-45, who liked films such as Se7en, the original Saw, Silence of the Lambs and Untraceable. The film is definitely a dramatic...

I've re-edited the intro into a much shorter outro, and will be shooting some additional pitch stuff this week. I've gotten enough feedback that I felt it warranted being reworked. Now it starts off with the trailer right away, which will hopefully get people more excited. I've gotten tons of...

IF you read through the campaign info, you can see what we will do if we do not make the full goal :) Yep, although they do have an 'all or nothing' option if you want to do that kind of campaign as well ;)

Thanks for the feedback :)

Thanks for the feedback :) We're asking for $300,000 because we want to make a film with not only a great storyline, acting and emotion, but also to have the highest production value possible, so that if with $0 we can make what you saw, imagine what we could do with a real budget! And no...

Hi everyone! This is the new proof of concept trailer we made for our Indiegogo campaign: http://vimeo.com/32951703 The trailer was shot primarily with the 5D mkII using several lenses but mostly a Zeiss ZE 50mm f/1.4, edited in Final Cut Pro, exported into After Effects using Automatic Duck...

Thanks Graeme :)

Thanks :cool:

Hi everyone! This is the third and final trailer for my first feature film, The Mix-In. It also includes a sneak preview after the trailer plays of a chase sequence in the film. The link is here: http://web.me.com/knuckleheadfilms/The_Mix-In/Trailer_3_Flash.html The film was shot entirely on...

Yeah the color correction is still a work in progress lol. Some of it is intentional, but only the drastic difference in the flashback shots that are in Ginger's office (the dreamy looking shots), but yeah, the rest really needs to be more balanced.

Well, for standard DV, I think you'll be hard pressed to find a better camera than the XL 2 for the price. It's simply a great camera. If you mean comparing the Sony V1 and the Canon XL 2, I prefer the V1. I love shooting in HD, and I love the features that the V1 has, including true 24p. The...

Thanks guys :) dvdguy I use a Sony HVR-V1 primarily. Our back-up was a Canon HV30, but we only used 4 shots from that camera in the whole film.

Hi everyone! I just finished our second trailer for our first feature film, "The Mix-In." After the great tips I got on the last trailer's posting, I tried to implement some of the things you guys suggested :D I would love to hear everyone's thoughts on this one: http://www.vimeo.com/7924233

M1chai1 I couldn't agree with you more!

One other thing regarding music licensing: After you send your email to the artist or label asking for permission to use a song, be patient! Remember that, especially in the case of a musician, they might not be able to get back to you for awhile. If their site says they are on tour, forget...

CDCosta I know if we had used union actors we would definitely have had to provide certain things, but non-union actors don't have the same rules. :) Zensteve, no problem. I used to have a ton of questions on getting music licensed for my films, and no one seemed to be able to give me a...

CDCosta I capture using Apple ProRes 422 HQ setting, which uses about 60 gigs an hour, and we used 125 tapes (I already had 25 tapes, so that was not counted in the budget), which worked out to about 7TB of space just for capture. Then after that the rest has been used for renders of any VFX...

Thanks for the feedback! I actually really like getting constructive criticism, and in fact the film itself has had 2 major scenes completely re-worked because of some great feedback I received on it :) There's only a couple of the comments I thought I would talk about the decisions behind...

Hi everyone! I wanted to share the trailer for my first feature film, "The Mix-In." It was shot using a Sony V1 and a Letus Extreme, and was edited and onlined with both FCP and AE. This was shot in 27 days, which includes 2 days of re-shoots with a micro budget of just $6200.00! It was edited...
