    watch OUTBREAK zone #1 - short zombie film made for a week film competition

    I understand where you are coming from. We did want our story to seem real, but we tried to provide some motivation for the characters and I was hoping this would provide a bare-bones story. Shannon and Steve are leaving Oxford... zombie outbreak happens and Shannon insists that they go back...

    watch Below Ground Trailer, feature i shot in 24hrs

    I'd also be interested to hear how you guys shot this... Loose script, professional actors. Was is extremely stressful with a 24hr time limit. How long is the final product... are you satisfied with your footage? Would you do this kind of thing again?

    watch Short Zombie Film - MORBID

    Very well done. A nice piece of filmmaking. A little lacking story-wise, but other than that I enjoyed it. I hope to make something of this quality one day.

    watch OUTBREAK zone #1 - short zombie film made for a week film competition

    OUTBREAK http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=boE4xYBMh9Y We had to shoot and edit everything in one week. We had a meager budget and used non-pro actors (obviously). All shooting on location. Please let me know what you think. Also, if we get the most views by Sunday 2.27 then our film...

    watch Found Footage of zombies, or prank?

    I admit it was a cheap (and lame) trick. If you can forgive me for that I'd really like to know your opinion. Especially whether or not you liked the ending, if you thought the zombie growls sounded realistic, and if you thought the main character was too annoying or if some of his lines were...

    watch Found Footage of zombies, or prank?

    Spare 5 minutes to watch the footage that was retrieved last week in Oxford, NC. The film was anonymously submitted to a movie festival, but authorities are investigating because the actors have gone missing! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=boE4xYBMh9Y&feature=player_embedded Make sure to...

    really really dumb question

    hehe yeah i meant the 3 frame crossfade... i have to be careful with it sometimes because occasionally the fade will contain a noise that was not intended to be in the clip

    watch Night of the Living Stoners - NEW WEBSERIES

    This second one is going to be about 13 minutes and it will be split into 2 parts since youtube has that 10 minute limit... but future episodes will be about the same length (about 5-10 minutes) thanks for your interest! what kind of series are you thinking of starting?

    watch Night of the Living Stoners - NEW WEBSERIES

    Joined the site about a week ago and I have already learned so much. I found the site while searching the internet looking for a place that might be interested in a new ZOMBIE/STONER comedy series I'm making into a web-series. I'm also in the process of creating a website, but for now we just...

    Advice

    another that i found helps to scope out your location before you begin shooting.. sounds obvious but taking 10-15 minutes to really get acquainted with your surrounding can make the difference between a good shot and a great one. get down near the ground, stand up on a chair... always be...

    really really dumb question

    yeah using the "mountain tool" to adjust the levels works... i just started using FCP but using the fade tool under audio effects works pretty well for me... you just drag it ontop of the space between the two audio clips in the timeline and it automatically adjusts the levels so that they fade...

    From Dusk 'till Dawn

    i live in NC in the USA and i would definitely go see this movie... i guess im a little biased since zombie/stoner movies are my favorite, but i have many friends who i know would scratch all their plans for the night to pay 10 bucks to go see this

    MUSIC RIGHTS - i have the bands permission, do i need anything else?

    thanks for the advice so far! "they" is the band's record label "Rule the World Records" i messaged them on their website and they sent me their email address so that i could contact them that way. I'm not sure who owns the label, the CEO is listed as "Pharaoh" so I'm guessing that the actually...

    MUSIC RIGHTS - i have the bands permission, do i need anything else?

    BACKGROUND INFO: I just finished a short episode that will hopefully be part of a larger series that will be posted to youtube. I am hoping to get enough views to partner with youtube and host ads to make money. There is also the possibility of creating a website that could contain the videos...

    Achieving sharp focus manually

    From what I've heard the zoom in, focus, and then pull back method works the best if you can't afford pricey items such as HD moniters and the such. Thanks to 2001 Productions for the tip to focus on the eyes... seems obvious but i have to keep this in mind for future films, thanks!

    watch One Night Stand (New Teaser!)

    first of all... WOW... i really want to go out and see this film. Being an amateur, in all sense of the word in regards to film, i feel a little awkward critiquing someone who obviously has more talent, experience, etc... than me but i'll do it anyways. I agree with Michael that the jump cut is...

    watch Teaser Trailer new short "Sexyman 9000"

    Well the trailer definitely makes me interested in the story. The only criticism I have concerns the length of a the trailer. I'm all for brief trailers (I hate one's that show every turning point of the story) but if this is a full length or even longer short film I would like to see a little...
