    Kony

    I didn't watch the whole video while I was at work. Nor do I know anything about Kony; I don't have time to research anything right now. I will say that the bits that I saw really reminded of the zeitgeist films from a couple years ago. So regardless of fact or fiction they definitly have a good...

    High School Film Maker Seeking Advise.

    I'm pretty new to this form so I have never seen that site before. I've shot stuff for this site, but its really hard to become a prime time show. Thankswww.channel101.com My advice is let film be a hobby for now. There are a lot of admirable filmmakers out there that went to school for...

    Do you always write a plot before the screenplay?

    I always build a full foundation. I look at writing as building a house; with a weak foundation you can't build a strong structure. I personally build a treatment/outline of the stories intention/meaning and all characters bio's, then actually right out the full treatment. We then process the...

    Yea sorry about not being more clear. I wasn't sure if you were a dp/director/writer...or something of that sort. So I tried to be politically correct. I write, but I am much more of a Director/Producer then anything. I can easily get actors, a decent looking location and shoot the scene. This...

    POLL: How is this opening scene?

    No worries, I'm all about constructive criticism. My writing partners and I have brutal RED PEN sessions. We leave names out of it, cause the allegiance needs to be with the idea... not the person that came up with it. If you ever need someone to get some actors together to work a scene out if...

    Film Location Questions

    Yea really great idea...I have had friends toy with the idea for just the NYC area. Are you trying to build a national site? Because that's a huge task to start. Good idea I thought of was: you can allow people to post there apartments, cars, and other value resource that they don't mind...

    POLL: How is this opening scene?

    It starts out pretty good, but by the third page it felt a little dragged out... I think a small feel for the restaurant around them and something going on around the two characters could give some depth. Since you want us to care about these people, adding a little smoke and mirror such as...

    Best Wide Lenses for 5D Mark 2 discussion? Barrel distortion etc

    I would stick around 28mm. I have the canon 60d and the curve is "sometimes" apparent due to the crop factor with some lower lens MM; and even higher lens MM. Read this blog post it really helps with fitting a nice lens to your camera body. All lens interact differently with the calibration of...

    Question for those who know cameras.

    Hope you enjoy the trade! If I had an extra 700 bucks I would probably snag a Small HD DP4 + EVF for $749...you can easily DIY a shoulder rig or a gun stock rig for wicked cheap.... Lets us know how the 7d fits for you.

    Actor/Crew Contract - Showreel Questions

    As everyone has said not much to worry about, but to ensure all future safety. Include a contract clause that states actors can only use personal clips of themselves. So just incase somebody posts the film on there favorite video site you can legally have the site or the person take it take...

    Artist vs. Executive

    I disagree with the way that you have defined the creative Executive...there is nothing creative about that kind of person. Most executives that think like that would be the "Micheal Bay" type that are just looking for the next franchise to squeeze money out of it. they are just Business...

    Question for those who know cameras.

    This is just my opinion, but I wouldn't let go of that full frame... I miss it so much lol. You lose so much with the compression and re-compression of theses DSLR's. Changing from the VistaVision 8/35 frame to whats in the 7d is a big downgrade. While the image isn't a huge let down when...

    Camera for a beginning filmmaker in college?

    Everyone makes a great point here. So now all you have to do is figure out what do you want to concentrate on the most at first. You can always upgrade afterwards to compensate for what you don't have. If you want to start out concentrating on just Directing actors, and won't be concentrating...
