Thanks, I'm based in London where PAL is the norm but from you say it still sounds like it's going to be too hard to do. I don't understand why they don't just accept miniDV for this particular part of the fest. I've got another film in a different part of the same festival and they were quite...

How would I begin producing a BetaSP PAL copy of one of my films? My film has been selected for a festival and this is the format they require but I don't know where to start. I'm familiar with making miniDV and DVD copies but BetaSP is something I'm new to. What hardware would I need for...

'Please Release Me' just won top prize in the film category at the Digital Convergence Initiative in Texas! It got rejected from some festivals all together, so I was pretty suprised.

Sound Engine has kindly been working on a new soundtrack for my short Washing Up Liturgy. You can watch it here. What do you think? The aim was to create a simple but 'other worldly', meditative piece that follows the visuals. Leao PS You can watch the film with the original music here.

new version I've taken your advice knightly/CommanderGoat with the slow, revolving light. There is a new version HERE. Please tell me if you think anything else should be done, peace leo

Hi Knightly, I just used stills and animated them with After Effects, this is how I worked before with another piece called The Dark Night. What do you think about the lighthouse ending? Bit trite? leo

For me, the movie fell well short of its ambitions, trying to say a lot with a narrative that needed work. The 'cool' MTV tricks clashed with the amateur filming and the poetry seemed well over the top. Leo

Hi & a very, very happy Christmas. I'm working on this short b/w video for a friend of mine who did the music. I'd be very grateful for any feedback: click here to see it peace leo

I shot this with a camera I took from college, I believe it was a Canon camera of some kind. Got any ideas for new music? Leo

that would be telling.

Washing up liturgy Hi indietalk! Sorry, I haven't been on these boards for a while. Please visit Washing Up Liturgy. I made this film some time ago. It's inspired by St. Teresa of Ávila who found God in the 'pots and pans'. I'd like to submit it to some film fests but I'll need a new...

Hi ZensSteve, at the moment you can just download it at selected film fests. They want to expand it. I think they're hoping people will download the films and then forward them to their friends. I haven't seen it on a phone as of yet. Soon you'll be able to get a copy at bluevend.com.

This film was just shown at Edinburgh as part of Pocket Shorts. Couldn't get to it, but the film along with 7 others is now available from a mobile phone video vending machine called Bluevend in the UK. I still haven't been able to see the film myself on a mobile though! thanks for your help

Simeon at the 1 minute animation festival I've just finished my entry for the 1 minute animation festival featuring Simeon. Take a peek HERE. The festival takes place next month in Tokyo. All the entries have to begin & end with a black circle so that they can form a continuous sequence. It...

cheers Zen, I'm trying to add a new anime each week but busy with other work at the mo.

really funny!!!!

I can't get it to work, can't you compress it a little?

Fantastic even without the 48 hour thing.

I want to transfer some films off my Mac onto MiniDV. What hardware should I buy for this? Are there any cheap MiniDv recorders out there? peace Leao

It had a very chilling sound with nice, gentle imagery. An ambient movie that was interesting to watch although I haven't got any idea what the 'message' was supposed to be other than a generally paradoxical gentle/eery feeling, I suppose that's no bad thing in itself.
