If you hadn't already guessed, the joke is on you ;) This is the final installment of the Sword Fight Club franchise, and we wanted to go out with a bang (the actual sword-fight starts at about 1:00): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lb0mNj79YM0 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lb0mNj79YM0 As...

Hey all! It's been a while, but I finally got around to finishing my next video, Sword Fight Club: Origins. You can watch it here, and read all about it below: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qQEPWYUnPdk http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qQEPWYUnPdk I made the other two Sword Fight Club videos...

Hey all! My friends and I are just now starting to shoot a miniseries leading up to the final Sword Fight Club video, and for one of the videos we are trying to pack in as many strange things as possible. And by strange, I'm thinking of things like this: http://i.imgur.com/Oip6aap.gif If you...

I decided to make an official page for our (really) stupid series of youtube videos (the first two are released, and we are in the process of making an "origins" series as well as a culminating Sword Fight Club 3). The amount of shameless self-promotion that my friends have done for these...

With the thread on the Red Giant sale, I thought I would also mention that there's a sale on the Rokinon 24mm f/1.4. It's selling for $500, which is $150-200 less than normal. I'm seriously considering picking this up...

Hey all! So I got a group of friends together (again) to make a sequel (because why not?). If you haven't seen the first one, here it is: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eq-o9TKVtRo For the sequel, my aim was to be funnier and faster-paced (the introductions in the first one dragged on, I...

Hey all, I'm planning on shooting the sequel to Sword Fight Club ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eq-o9TKVtRo ) this coming weekend. We wanted to switch some things up for the next one, including the location, and our best idea so far is to shoot it at night in a parking garage (note that we...

...but when I do, I find threads like this: http://www.reddit.com/r/AskReddit/comments/13ixog/if_there_is_one_scene_i_never_want_to_see_in_a/ All of these cliches are so true that it's saddening. Any thoughts/reactions, or additions to the list?

So I got a group of friends together and shot a video this past weekend! Here it is: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eq-o9TKVtRo http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eq-o9TKVtRo I realize that the intro is way long, but it all leads up to the fights :) And I was involved in one of the fights, but...

EDIT: Nevermind, I lost :/

Hey all! I was bored a few nights ago, so I decided to make a video of my feet. I choreographed where I would go in about 5 minutes, but it took me a few tries to get most of the elements right. I'd love to hear any opinions on the handheld camerawork/focus pulling, and especially the sound...

Hey all! As an excuse to try out my shiny new Premiere Pro CS6, I decided to cut together a demo reel for the videos I've made thus far. I wasn't planning on making a reel until I had gotten some legitimate projects under my belt, but like I said I needed something to do! Anyway, I'd like to...

And Peter Jackson just became George Lucas! In all seriousness though, what are people's thoughts on this? The immediate comparison I drew in my mind was Nolan's Batman trilogy. The Dark Knight had enough content, Heath Ledger died far enough ahead of the release of the movie, and the ending...

The "Snail" series by our own Flicker Pictures has been a huge inspiration to me as an aspiring filmmaker. It's tough to find such hard-hitting indie works as "Snail Trail" and "Snail Mail." In that spirit, I present to you: Slow Things in Slow Motion...

There hasn't been a whole lot of useful information on this topic, so I was wondering if anyone has experience with making a custom effect (or script? or plugin? the terminology is confusing as well) for Premiere Pro or After Effects. I want to make a script (that sounds most accurate)...

This isn't directly film-related, but I had a question regarding the spectral frequency display inside Soundbooth. As I understand it, if I see a solid horizontal line that indicates a single pitch. What I would like to do is select part of the spectrum (one of the lines) and find out exactly...

I'm probably the last one to the party, but I just discovered the "Storm Freerunning" video on Vimeo. In case you haven't seen it, enjoy: http://vimeo.com/17391435 What is really inspiring about this video is the fact that there was no budget and relatively little equipment for the whole...

I was recently contacted by someone online who wants me to make them a music video. If we agree on a price, how would I get paid for this? Paypal? Something else? Also, do taxes apply to Paypal (the internets are pretty vague on this one)? Has anyone else done an exclusively online...

Hey everyone! This is a really quick video I did spur-of-the-moment. My friends and I made a potato gun for the first time, so I filmed a few things. Needless to say, it was a fun night :) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mFBlOX5M6PA

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qBbGFr5BVro This is an interesting interview of Gavin O'Connor's unconventional process in what he calls "method filmmaking." If you can't watch the whole thing, 47:25 to the end is the best piece of philosophy I've heard with regards to making art.
