[9:18] [Short Film] "Pumped" Hey indietalk, I just wanted to share the short film I just finished. I submitted a five minute cut of this film to USC and this is my final version :) https://vimeo.com/118880790

Hi there, My friends and I just a few college filmmakers, we do short films that we write/direct/produce ourselves. Since high school, we've used a RODE Video Mic (not the pro), a RODE boom pole, and a Tascam DR-05. We're going to start our longest project and we want to completely upgrade our...

I've never done anything with a green screen, so I've never had to go through the keying process. Our set up is going to be filming from the outside of a car, looking in, with a green screen covering the windows. The car is standing still in the film. So, a pretty simple effect, but I have no...

Howdy, I'm looking to upgrade my tripod. The one I'm using now I purchased for around $100 and it's decent, the pans/tilts are very smooth, but the head is constantly coming loose from the sticks and it's incredibly difficult to find a spot where it won't do that. It's got a rod in the center...

I have a Canon 60D and I want to start adding widescreen bars in post production, either by adding the black bars my self or just changing the aspect ratio. However, I have no anamorphic lenses and I won't for a very long time. I have no way of really marking where the bars would be, so I'm...

I shoot on a Canon 60D with a 28-70mm f/2.8 lens on it. As a graduation gift I'm going to buy a glidecam, but I don't know whether to get the HD-2000 or 4000. I know the difference is mostly in the weight it can support but is there any difference in the steadiness or the quality of the actual...

I think I may be doing something wrong in the conversion or rendering of my footage, I'm looking for some help with this. Wasn't sure to put this in here or in the cameras forum but this problem seems like it happens in post production. I shoot with a Canon 60D, always shoot at 1920x1080 24fps...

I'm still experimenting with shorter projects. I have a few more planned, but I'm just trying to get some practice before shooting any short films. Hope you guys enjoy this one! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T0tpJMVyN3M

I'm writing a scene at a crime scene right now, and I want to have a long tracking shot starting with the witness being interview on the lawn, to some forensic guys collecting evidence from the crime scene, the body, ect. I'm stuck on writing this though. Would it just be something like The...

Right now I have about 3gb of ram on my computer, and only 256mg of dedicated ram on my graphics card, and this makes for very slow laggy editing on Sony vegas. My computer can only handle 4gb of ram itself, so instead of upgrading my entire system to get higher ram, would buying a graphics...

Hey guys, this is my first actual project that i've done, got this ridiculously dumb idea that my friends and i couldn't stop laughing at, wrote shot and edited in a few days and... here it is! let me know what you think haha https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UKafu4MM2dQ

Has anybody here gotten this too? I searched online and it seemed like a pretty common problem with the program, but nothing I found online actually helped me. Hopefully one of you guys can help me, I have a bunch of footage and this is stopping me from making any progress :grumpy: Thanks

Hey all, I just bought a Canon HF R10 and a RODE VideoMic and I was wondering if there was an attachment or something that I could pick up. I was looking around on B&H and the only thing I saw that was close to what I need had a shoe mount, which I don't think would work with my mic. I have a...

Hey all, I'm typing up a script for a class project in Final Draft and I have to email it to my group members tonight. None of them have Final Draft and they all need to see it before it's printed. Is there any settings I could change to have it be saved as a more accessible file for them?

camcorders on a low budget EDIT: check my last post for an update :) I've been looking into some cameras here and there but I'm totally lost on picking one to buy.. DSLRs, camcorders.. it's all Greek to me. This will be my first real camera for filmmaking, I'd like to start with the best...

I need a topic to expand on for a serious toned conversation. The context isn't really important, but I'm planning on having two men having a serious/urgent talk in a dark room for a few minutes, and then toward the end they're going to get into a loud altercation that revolves around an inside...

Microphones for DSLRs I'm thinking about buying a Sony a290 to start my film making.. "career", so to say. Picking the camera wasn't the problem, it's the mic. For lack of better words, I'm basically an infantile retard when it comes to microphones. I'm not looking for anything too crazy, the...

Now, I have no screenplays written just yet, but I have something that I just wrote for school that I would like to share (sorry if I'm posting in the wrong section if that's the case). This is my first draft of the personal statement I will be working on throughout the 2½ years I have left in...

Hey, I'm Artin I live in southern California and I'm just a sophomore in high school right now. I've always loved movies and have just recently been fascinated with film making. I basically have no equipment or ideas yet, so hopefully browsing these forums for a while will put me in the right...
