    producing What's everyone up to in 2023?

    Hi gang. I occasionally have a quick scan of Indietalk, but haven't really read or posted in the past couple of years, since I've not really been working in or around film (nor doing it as a hobby). I occasionally see updates from some of the old-timers on Facebook, but really have lost track of...

    Animated logo?

    Hi everyone! I'm looking for a logo (and an animated version of it) for a newsletter I'm planning to launch in the new year. Very simple, just want it to look like a label on a whiskey bottle with a couple of bits of relevant copy, and then an a 3-second animated version where something slightly...

    wanted Looking for musicians to record bits of Holst's The Planets

    Hello everyone! I'm working on a podcast – apologies, it's not a film – for which I am seeking recordings of Holst's The Planets. I'm hoping to use bits of each of the seven movements across the series. If anyone has access to any recordings from The Planets which I could use (fully credited, of...

    link The Town That Didn't Stare

    (I was looking for the Screening Room but this was the closest I could find!). There are a lot of new members here these days who probably won't remember when I was an active member of this forum. As some will know, I've sort of segued out of filmmaking in the past 5 years, first into...

    Hello (again)

    Hi everyone! Apparently I have to post here before I get access to the rest of the site, which has mysteriously vanished. For those who don't know me (which probably constitutes a fairly high percentage of IT's current users) I'm Nick, I'm from the UK and live in London. I've made a bunch of...

    pre-pro Your Next Project

    Some of you I know of old, some of you are new to me. Anyhow, I did a similar thread to this years and years ago and found it a good way for people to articulate what they were working on and what they want from their next project. So... – What are you thinking about? Or writing? Or applying...

    Establishing Shots podcast

    Hi all! Been a while since I was posting regularly here, so apologies for the drive-by promotion (though I can assure you all that I do still frequently check-in and read through the boards). For those who don't know – which I imagine is almost all of you, how times have changed... – I've...

    Game Over – crowdfunding!

    Nope, this thread isn't heralding the death of crowdfunding. My friend Ben, who co-produced by web-series Spads, is raising money for his film Game Over. Which is set to start shooting pretty soon. They're only crowdfunding a portion of the budget, which means the figure should be perfectly...

    Final Draft vs Writer Duet?

    This is a question for the screenwriters on here: I'm going to start exclusively using paid screenwriting software (there are lots of reasons for this) and I was on the verge of committing to Final Draft when I saw a lot of people talking about Writer Duet, which I'd never heard of. Has anyone...

    watch Spads: My new web-comedy!

    Morning fine people of Indietalk! Today we've launched the first episode of my new web-series Spads. The show is a comedy about British politics in the run-up to an imagined 2020 General Election. Hopefully there'll be stuff to enjoy for the American folks here, but most of the gags are quite...

    Podcast audio help

    My girlfriend works for a current affairs magazine here in the UK, and one of her responsibilities there is to produce and edit their podcast. She's a journalist, not an audio person, so, understandably, she gets mixed results. The magazine don't want to spend very much money on the podcast, so...

    Web-series title sequence!

    Hey ho! I'm planning to shoot some more episodes of my web-series, The Magic Circle, pretty soon and I was hoping that I might get a new title sequence. Here's the title sequence as it currently is: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UgYThBS1LPo As you can see, it's a bit rough and ready. I'm...

    You in 2015

    So, it's almost March, but it stills feels like the start of 2015. I thought it might be good to have a thread about what we plan to achieve, and what we're hoping to achieve, over the next 12 months. *** So, for me, I think my main project is going to be the documentary I've been working on...

    watch The Magic Circle

    Something of a 'surprise' drop, given that I usually discuss these things in excruciating detail! This is a web-series that we started shooting about 3 weeks ago, and which is now debuting with Episode 1! The film was shot by Ollie Craig (chilipie) and scored by Josh Loughrey (JoshL) so, as ever...

    Composer!

    Do you make music? Do you love extremely short notice? Then this is the gig for you! I am looking for a remote composer for my 48HFP team THIS weekend. I'd hoped to find someone in London, but alas, so I'm willing to consider anyone, anywhere if they can commit to producing a few minutes of...

    Editor

    Hi guys – I just wrapped shooting on the first three episodes of my new web-series The Magic Circle (which I've said nothing about and will maintain an air of mystery...) and after logging & transferring all the footage, realised within 1/2 an hour that I wouldn't be able to do the edit...

    Post-grad film school in USA

    Hi guys, I'm currently preparing to apply to do a post-graduate film degree, probably in the USA. I thought I'd canvas opinion from IT members, especially those based in the US, about what schools to apply to. I've got a relatively impressive academic background that shouldn't, on paper...

    watch The Flight of the Flamingo (2013)

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XpTVZbPyMdw Those of you who've been around Indietalk for the last few years will probably know about this project, and basically how it turned out. Crazily, it's been two years since we started shooting the film, and I felt like the time was right to release the...

    Community Project

    My greatest regret, during my time on IndieTalk, has been my failure to get a community project off the ground. We came pretty close with the organ lottery project, but it never quite worked out. The past few days has seen a new member trying to get another community project off the ground, but...

    VFX artist

    Hey all! I am looking for a VFX artist, because, like most things, I can't do this myself. I am working on a documentary about an island chain in the Indian ocean, but, unfortunately, they're closed to visitors, so I have to come up with some visually creative ways of showing where and what...
