I think by referring to her as "hot chick" set the precedent for the post to lighten up. In all seriousness, I would have carried on shooting, the show must go on...

My initial idea of a great editing reel was a piece that told a story well, fueled with emotion content in accordance to the music selected, all under 3-5 minutes. I suppose a great trailer embodies all of these elements. I completely agree and I think that if a reel is to be sent, then it...

There maybe another thread to this, but what do you think makes an outstanding editing reel? Editors are unsung heroes in the film industry, not too many people can tell you of any ones that really stand out, but it could be argued that it is the most important part of making a film. Kubrick...

A Scanner Darkly

Nice. It's like trailer park boys with a psychic. Great pacing.

My heart is beyond smashed. We had good times together, me and my trusty XHA1, but it's time to move on. Thanks for the advise about the DSLRs, I think I'll go for the XA10 unless something better pops up. I'm going to the states in August so I'll hold out until then. It's much cheaper there...

Yep, tried both to no avail.

My Canon XHA1 won't turn on. When I try, the led blinks a couple of times and that's it. Nothing. The tape does even come out. Has anyone had this problem before? Before you ask, I've tried a fully charged battery, and I've checked the stand-by/lock switch. I'm going to the Canon repair store...

Brilliant animation, puts million $$$ productions like Ice age and Hoodwinked to shame. Keep us posted.

Interesting idea, it instantly causes a stir of curiosity. Looking forward to seeing the "Money shots/Crucifixion".

Nicely shot :) I think 30-40 seconds could be sliced off and perhaps the vocals could be raised a little and you've got yourself a smoothly flowing trailer. Good luck with the project.

Nice one TheKoreandonut, we'll keep spreading the fun :) I can completely understand where you're coming from. The OJ thing was a bit of an inside joke and there was a bit of a debate whether to keep it in the script or not. I personally didn't find it distasteful and left in in the script in...

Cheers Murdock, glad you enjoyed it. The writer (and lead actor) actually had a difficult time living in Japan; the tiny apartments, language barrier, indirect communication, and the rigid system they have here really got to him. I'm really glad that you picked up on it. He wrote this piece as...

This is England http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0480025/ Not quite 4 years (Made in 2007), but highly recommended.

Here's a great list Darren Aronofsky's top five: http://thebrowser.com/interviews/darren-aronofsky-on-making-movies Personally I really liked The Power Filmmaking Kit by Jason Tomaric, Rebel Without a Crew by Robert Rodriguez, and Shooting to Kill by Christine Valchon.

The Prodigy ran a competition on Dailymotion in February 2010, this was our entry. Filmed in Tokyo with a red one camera, the "Bank" was a post office studio we rented for the day. Any comments are more than welcome, positive or negative. http://vimeo.com/12144541

Our first short film about a foreigner in Japan who turns to a friend with an unorthodox plan to get rid of his ex girlfriends TV. It was shot almost 3 years ago on a Canon XHA1 on almost no budget. Any comments are more than welcome, positive or negative. I'm a grown man, I can take the...

I think the movies you watch around the ages of 8-12 will always hold a very nostalgic spot in your heart and your perception will be bias towards them. Those younger years are critical in how you shape your world view and I think a lot of artists are heavily influenced by what they see and...

I thought it was visually brilliant and I've been hooked on the soundtrack since it came out, but the plot was pretty poor with huge plot holes in it. Check out this Tron music video, great remix by the Glitch Mob and really well edited: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=swcDeoZR0E8
