Hello, Id like to ask if anyone on indietalk can define what narrative means in film ? I have searched and searched on the internet quite thoroughly but still only come across interviews with film-makers or actors that just mention ''narrative arcs'' in the story rather than actually explain...

Ahh yes Best In Show, great movie. Have you seen the gang's latest ? A mighty wind . Thats pretty hilarious too, tragic at some points though :( P:S Josie & the pussycats ? Why ? P:P:S If its for Tara Reid then i forgive you :)

Well im not sure about Robert as we dont get to know him that well. But in my opinion Tyler is a jerk, so I dont rush to show him respect.

see fight club to understand robert palson

hmmm ... Im gonna choose a list of five Ive watched Leon about a million times. Also (i know its not exactly the greatest movie ever made) Face/Off just really appeals to me for some reason. Fight Club would certainly be on there. and pulp fiction. and .... Annie Hall, seen that 100's of times...

actually i think heatwave and nowhere to run may have been late sixties. ... i could start talking about jackie wilson and spiral off into the funk brothers and then glen miller ... but i wont :)

80's music is certainly brilliant. No doubt about it. Myself Im always going back to the seventies for music, artists like Martha Reeves & The Vandellas (Heatwave and Nowhere To Run specifically), The Jam (albeit they did hit it big in the early eighties) and Thin Lizzy .etc. Always pop into my...

Its the Theme to Tv's ''Ironside'' by the way incase you didnt know. Composed by the excellent Quincy Jones. You must know the TV show, the one with the wheelchair-bound detective ? I thought it was great, used to watch it in my auntie's house when i was a kid.

I stay away from Canon altogether after one bad incident last summer, i had spent a month shooting a film pretty much every day and then the Canon XM1 I was using decided that it couldnt read the tapes anymore. I cleaned the heads and fiddled with it for days. All I got was ''Please remove...

Hello everyone. This post is about what you do when film-making gets you down, has your camera ever eaten your tape ? has your film ever come out bad ? has the script ever turned out to not be as good as you first thought it was when shooting day rolls along ? We all get film-making blues, its...

Well thanks for the information Clive but im just a sixteen year old film-maker, my movies only have to look good on VHS and that will do.

okay, (Thanks to everyone who replied by the way) So basically Avid really isnt that special, its just that its the industry standard so thats why its handy to learn and seems to be so popular. Got ya'. I was just confused, and i'd had put up with people rolling their eyes whenever i said that...

I will be using Discreet Combustion 3.0.

ah no no no. I worded the question wrong, i dont want to use paint. What i meant is that ive tried using regular green fabric that ive bought from fabric shops but its just too thin and doesnt do a very good job. What i meant is that i wanted to find a place where i can find proper chroma...

Another quick post, can someone PLEASE explain to me what it is that makes Avid Xpress 'so' much better than Adobe Premiere ? I know its a broad question, but as far as i can see - other than reliability - its pretty impossible to put Avid ahead of premiere, premiere can do all the things that...

Hi everyone, quick post, Does anyone know where I can buy bluescreen / greenscreen materials on the web/mail order/wherever ? I have tried and tried with green/blue fabric and sheets but to no avail, its just not giving good enough results. I found some at http://www.jessops.co.uk (search for...

Ive never seen Patrick McGoohan's The Prisoner, but according to my dad it is certainly the sort of thing that I would like. Ill keep an eye out for it :)

I tend to try and keep comedy out of my movies in the dialouge, as verbal comedy thats funny in one place usually doesnt go down too well in many other places around the world. Physical comedy always works - a man slipping on a banana in china is just as funny as a man slipping on a banana in...

They didnt send me a form, i just explained to them that I was a 14 year old film-maker (at the time) and that I would be sending my movie to a few small competitions and using it on my showreel (which i did). I was just really really polite and made myself sound like a little spec of dust on...
