Abraham Lincoln killed Vampires AND zombies?!?! Cool! haha The prequel should be George Washington: Werewolf hunter and sequel should be Barack Obama: Ghost Hunter

Does this movie look interesting to anyone else? I've been doing a lot of research and it seems well cast with a decent lead and the cinematography and effects look awesome. I'm the most excited that it's original and out of the box. I personally haven't read the books. (I'm waiting till I see...

The Camera Clinic in Reno, NV does some really great stuff and they do shipping as well if it's too far of a drive. Ask for Steve and he'll help you out. He knows a lot about cameras and can probably get you hooked up.

Well, specifically moonlight sonata by beethoven. There seems to miles of copyright paperwork to have to read through just to find specific information and the laws are constantly changing as well. I'll definitely look into hiring a pianist to perform the piece. Thanks for the advice.

I would pm Alcove Audio about sound equipment. He definitely knows a lot about sound equipment. I don't know enough to give you a good answer. He would be able to provide you with basic list of absolute necessities for sound and lead you on the right path to get professional sound.

Auto zoom and motion tracking are great but are EXTREMELY loud when you filming, and editing layers of sound is much more difficult than editing film if you don't have much experience. Stability isn't difficult with DSLR as long as you have a decent shoulder rig or at least a stabilizer like a...

Instead of spending money on a new camera, I would invest in some good sound equipment and lenses since you already have a T3I. Good luck to you. I would also recommend downloading magic lantern for you camera once you get more comfortable. Good luck.

I was wondering if there is time limit for music where it's able to be used with infringing copyright? Books have something where the copyright/ownership expires after 70 years I believe, so classics are able to be re-written, etc. I was wondering if there was something like that for music? Like...

Well, you need to decide whether you want digital cards or minidvltape. Both have pros and cons. I personally prefer cards because it takes a lot of the hassle of downloading the film to the computer and shortens the time considerably. Also, both the panasonic and canon are nice cameras but...

It looks like they laid down a thin layer of fog and then enhanced the rays of sunshine with CG post. The shots of rihanna look like they used reflectors and soft light w/fog. They had bright lights for outdoor scenes and and ehanced sky/water with CG as well. It also looks like they used a...

The man from nowhere- 8.5/10 Story was basic and the dialogue didn't transfer well, but film really shined with cinematography, light, music and especially the acting. Bin Won did a great job of potraying his character and setting the entire mood for the film. I'm usually not too bothered from...

Welcome to the site! I'd be interested in reading your scripts to give my input. Maybe we can do some comparisions as well!

Thanks so much! I really appreciate the help!

I was doing some research and it seems like the Canon EF 50mm 1.8/f II is getting some high praises for a really cheap lens. Also, what lens adapters are recommended?

No, I don't need Auto Focus. I was just looking with a lens with a fixed aperture that is relatively cheap that performs well with a lot of different film locations. I don't expect it to do everything..just enough to start filming. thanks

I'm not sure what kind of Canon 600D lens to go with for a prime? I would like to shoot a quality narrative film, but I need a good all around range and fixed aperture. Preferably one under $400. I can't really afford too many lenses, so I would rather have one really good lens than a couple...

Well, I prefer the Nikon brand because I heard they're "backward compatible" with lenses. I have an old 1967 Nikon F with a few lenses (i.e Auto Zoom Nikkor 50-300mm F4.5, AUTO Nikkor-N 24mm f/2.8) and I read that they will fit on Nikon DSLRs. Of course, I wasn't planning on using AF with old...

I'm looking to get a DSLR and I've narrowed it down between the CANON 600D and NIKON D5100. I've researched both cameras. The 600D image quality is great, but the D5100 has continous autofocus when filming which would be very helpful. It seems like the Nikon has a lot more lenses on the market...

Chronicle- Cinematography was interesting for a "found footage film". It would have been better if it wasn't. Great character progression, and motivation. CG wasn't great, but it wasn't overdone. Overally predictable. 8/10

Hello Everyone, I'm relatively new to filmmaking. I've been really passionate about film and filmmaking since I was a child. I've made small/short films with my brothers and other various family members to the best of my limited knowledge in editing, techniques, etc since I was young. I'm trying...
