Cheesey? Of course it is! :-) We aimed for cheeseness for once. We had lots of problems with the noise, a setup in the camera screwed it up without being able to notice it with the headphones. This was the best we could get without voiceover. Audio is our weakest link (quickly followed by...

Our latest short film "BREAKFAST" is finally out. We had a tiny crew for this short, so we did the best out of our possibilities :-) Any feedback is welcome (good and bad), as well as recomendations, tips, suggestions, ideas... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WkJ9t804oHQ Enjoy.

I liked the setting and the music. After a few seconds the music was a bit over the top, too epic. Also it got a bit blury at times. Overall I liked it, keep them coming.

Thanks! I wanted to put something on the wall to avoid the Orange invasion :-) Unfortunately we did not have anything. These are Dutch Cheetos, they like orange stuff there (national color). Any ideas where you would have put the lights to get better colors? Next film will be filmed in...

Based on the quantum theories of Schroedinger's cat, an Italian PhD student created the following script. I helped by playing one of the roles, and with camera and F/X effects. Please provide feedback, positive and negative, as it is always very valued input for the next film...

Post it in vimeo :-)

Thanks!

Dont be afraid of sharing a bit the plot, most plots have already been written already in one way or another. More than two thousand years of scriptwritting probably have generated a similar plot/idea. A film is not just sequences put together, if you don't have a plot it makes little sense to...

I write it, re-write it, show it to others, re-write it. Then I ask actors to read it, and re-write it, then they read it again, and re-write it. Finally I get something acceptable (usually version 8 or 9), and if appropriate then I film it. And during the filming we change a few things, and...

Have you tried to adapt some of the short shakespeare works? They are free to use. You can also find some Oscar Wild works and probably some other great British works that you can adapt and convert to modern English if you want.

Finally we got our second and final part of We are NOT Mexican, a tale of wrong people doing the wrong things... http://youtu.be/EcPQZp0vZFk?hd=1 We had lots of audio problems, you might notice the voice over that took place for 80% of the film. That took us longer than completing the rest of...

I got very good tips with "The Complete Guide to Low-Budget Feature Filmmaking" by director Josh Becker. It is quite comprehensive, and it has tips that are very useful. Then I got lots of directing tips from actors books such as Michael Caine acting masterclass (you can find it even in...

Looking great!

Thanks. I also noticed that we forgot to remove the auto on the outdoors scene. Our camera man was not available at that time, so we got help from friends... I tried to correct it as much as possible but well, I gave up :-) We are trying to get better with the camera settings, but still a way...

Ah, and we also learnt that the Police don't like people in cars wearing masks... We were stopped at the same spot by 3 police patrols. Luckily we just removed the masks at the time. After that we decided to go to more unhabited areas.

Visually it is great! The looks, lighting, and camera angles work. The storyline is lacking, well, it looks like a scene from a bigger sequence. The beginning is not very believeable, the actor seems very relaxed while shooting, and all of a sudden he's very stressed an unable to put the...

Greetings from Europe, Our latest project is finally out. After a nightmare of postproduction we finally got something completed. Enjoy, and feel free to provide feedback, ideas, advice, or trash it, we can take it all. Anything that can help us to make the next one better will be...

Have you tried audacity to check what you can do on the sound. You probably won't be able to fix it, but there is always some improvement to be made. Also you can practice with voice over, this is used on many films, and it takes quite some practice to get it right (I still don't manage). Also...

I know what you mean. Maybe it is a good distraction so people don't realize the mistakes later on ;-) Our "cgi" intro is under update, we aim to make it shorter.
