https://filmfreeway.com/projects/193636 Hey there, this is approximately a 15 minute short film which goes a little deeper into the psychology of why we do things the way we do in certain high adrenaline situations... say in this case, a house intrusion. Well maybe as a short film it just...

I am making a short advertisement/sketch for my school to promote our yearbook, and the entire sketch involves a simple interrogation scene between a mysterious figure whom you can only see it's silhouette, and an innocent kid. The kid is sitting at the table the whole time while the...

So I have a question regarding, in general, on set rehearsals. What are the different kind of rehershals one would use on set (or if there's only one kind just talk about that) and when, as well as how much those types should be rehearsed. Much thanks!

So I have this scene where the main actor is talking to someone on the phone, who isn't visually there during the conversation. What's the best way of going about recording the audio for this scene? Should I have the voice on the other end be a voice over added in post? Or should I have the...

I'm looking to hold a casting call at my high school to try to find any promising actors from the pool of students. These are a lot of questions I know, and apologies in advance, but what are the basic steps to set a casting call up? Or more specifically, once I have one set-up and get people to...

This subject may have been disscused in advance so I apologize if it's a repeat, anyways, how do you get or help get an actor to the point of crying during a scene. How much help is needed from the director in order to allow the actor to get to that emotional climax. So does anyone have any tips...

I found this handy link where you can find about 70 screenplays from some pretty recent and really good films. A good resource for any screenwriter/filmmaker. Here y'all go: http://www.screencraft.org/blog/download-70-screenplays-legally-free/ Yes the link URL seems sketchy but it is actually...

For my short film, I have a couple of wide shots acting as a master for some dialogue scenes. So my question is, how would I go about recording the dialogue for these shots? Adding to the challenge, I don't have any lavalier mics, only a shotgun which makes this a lot harder :hmm: Does anyone...

I have quite a simple question here, and sorry for starting two threads in a row I'm just very curious in these answers... Anyways, is there any proven method so to speak on how to find the overlying themes in films, I know some are obvious but some are not. Anyone have some thoughts on this?

So I just managed to see Guardians of the Galaxy over this weekend, which I highly recommend, but it got me thinking about why we as a culture adore such superhero films? (if in need of evidence, note the billion + gross of "The Avengers"). Is it because they present a magical place where we...

Hello everyone, here is a short 8 page screenplay called Intrusion which I plan to direct rather soon, hence the scene numbers and it being the Shooting Draft. Anyways, I'm always curious and open to see what anybody has to say that could improve this script. Thanks a bunch! ? Script...

Hey y'all. I was wondering to any of the DSLR users out there if they have any suggestions on how to keep their camera cool enough to prevent overheating when shooting a short film? That's a pretty vague question, I know, but I thought I should ask if any of you guys any tips or tricks to keep...

What's y'all your favorite film composer? Along with your favorite score from them?

Hi everyone, this is a fairly quick, 4 and a half page drama script called "Intrusion". This is a rough draft, meaning no corrections made at all, right out of Adobe Story. I was wondering how I could change it up to make it more intense, increase the pace, as well as decrease the repetitiveness...

So I've been having a strange problem recently involving the rendering of a project in Premiere. Here's the video, you'll have to watch in full screen, and preferably in 1080p to really see it (YouTube makes it slightly better: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jC7Q2Bq7nWM&feature=youtu.be...

So I'm preparing to do an outdoor shoot for a short action flick that involves a fairly lengthy chase sequence. So what's the best way to capture sound for the sequence, I already have a shotgun microphone and a boom pole (which isn't practical for a run and gun shoot), should I consider getting...

All in all I'm not the best screenwriter ever, and that's mainly due to the fact that I have a hard time of coming up with a good, interesting story to tell. So that begs some questions, does one have to be able to write a good screenplay to be a good director? And what's the correlation between...

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DlM2CWNTQ84 I have to say, I'm liking what I'm seeing so far, as long as they don't mess up with having so many villains. What are y'all thoughts on this? Are you gonna go see it?

Just out of curiosity, what editing software do you guys use and why?
