Hey guys - following the death of my old Samsung DV camera a few years ago (buy reliable tripods.), I'm interested in getting another. If possible, it would be no more than £100...I have a little leeway, but not more than about £20. I'm particularly interested in getting one of the small...

Hey guys, I recently made two films and would like to see what you think of them - any feedback or opinions are useful. The first, "A Cleansing" was filmed for Uni on a Panasonic P2 HD camcorder and sound recorded using a Marantz. The brief asked us to discover 'found' footage - something from...

Hey guys, i've got more questions yet again pertaining to the 550D. I got talking to a guy the other day and he has a 50D I believe, and we were discussing lenses for that and the 550D, which I have. When I asked him about using an adapter for lenses fitted for the old film EOS series, he told...

Hey guys, just got my Canon 550D a few weeks ago and it is awesome, but i'm having a recurrent issue with it and I was wondering if any of you could help. When on Movie Mode, zooming in or out of the frame causes the exposure to automatically correct itself and create a kind of "flicker" effect...

Hey guys - as you may have read in another post, i'm looking into submitting my work into festivals. I decided that it would be useful to get some DVDs printed in order to show my work, and just to get my films looking more professional. I've taken a look online and there are some DVD...

Hey guys - i've been recently considering entering a few of my films into some festivals. They're between 2-5 minutes in length and would be best suited to festivals which like little short fillers like that...and, they're not dialogue-based and are quite basic in terms of production value. I...

Hey guys! I've realised just how important good lighting can be during my past few productions and was wondering if you could suggest some good websites for purchasing lights or renting within the UK. I've been reading a lot of horror stories (mostly on this board) about bad internet lights, so...

Hey guys, i'm thinking of using a few camera tracks in my next film and I need a smooth dolly, but I don't particularly have the financial resources to purchase one. I've used a computer chair for a dolly before, but was wondering if there is any better way of doing it. The computer chair tends...

Hey guys! My last DV camera recently expired during the shooting of my latest film, and I haven't decided which one to purchase yet. It's a somewhat difficult decision as the camera I had before, a Samsung, was very reliable and you could do some very cool things with it. One technique I learned...

Hey guys! Some of you might have seen that i've done a few shorts that are up in the Screening>Narrative (/shamelessplug) forum, which are all hosted on my Youtube and while that has helped their exposure, i'm finding it difficult to discover places where it's going to be seen. I'm not very...

"Tempterism", "Together Forever" and "The Dinner of Two" - A Few Short Films Hey guys, I just signed up here and one of the reasons was for some advice and feedback on my recent film projects. I will provide you all with the links to these three here so if you want to take a look and give me...

Hey there! I'm Ric, studying Film, Radio and Television at university and thought that signing up to a place like this would be good for communication and development. It looks really cool and i'll be sure to check it out and get to know the place. I'm really keen on the cinematography...
