Just got a T3i, and I'm too poor to have more than one brand. So, it's time to get rid my Nikon gear. Items for sale: - Nikon D5100 body with cap and strap - Nikon Nikkor AF-S DX 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6G with both caps - Tamron AF 70-300mm f/4-5.6 LD Di with both caps and hood - Bower SFD35N flash...

Decided to get outside and shoot something today since it was "nice" out (a balmy 38°F). This was my first time going for something cinematic, not just recording motocross. First time manually focusing. No tripod was used. No real story or idea behind it. Did it all as one take, walked...

I'm looking to create a short that has two teenage girls as characters. Still being in school, I could have no problem finding two friends that would be more than happy to volunteer. But, I don't want two people that aren't going to take it seriously and gain nothing from it. At the same...

I'm planning on shooting a short horror at the beginning of this summer. Just trying to get my plan of action prepared right now. I need a monster/demon/creature/scary-creature to pop out for a second or two. I know two people who are in-school; one for special effects makeup and one for...

I've read in a few places that with certain effects applied and three way color correction, you can make a lit scene seem like it's dark. But, not one of those sources gave even a rough idea of how to do it. If anyone can give me the gist of doing this, I'd greatly appreciate it. Seeing as...

I'm getting ready to take the plunge, and film my first short. I already have the camera(D5100), and I'll be picking up a new tripod(I only have a crappy one for photography). So, that leaves me with audio and lighting to worry about. Right now, I'm tackling the aspect of audio. I was, kind...

I decided to try and see how syncing the audio was, rather than just chatting about it. I used my D5100 for the video, and a spare camcorder I had to act as a mic, and a monopod as the boom. I know the audio quality isn't great, but I made do with what I had to work with. My bird decided to...

I'm trying to grasp everything I need to know about recording audio. I have a grasp on some basics, but I've still got questions. If someone could point me towards a tutorial or something that covers all the basics, that'd be great. I'm going to be using a Nikon D5100. I'm currently...

I'm looking to pick up an external mic for my Nikon D5100. I've narrowed it down to the Pro-24CM and the ECZ-990. Both are about the same price $60 and $69. Both have the same review rating. Almost nothing, except their physical aspects sets them apart from what I can see. From what I can...

I'm glad I found this forum. Just after reading through a few threads I've started learning. I can tell there's so much to learn and keep learning. I can't wait to further my knowledge. I can tell there's a lot of experienced and helping people here. Now, back to relating to the title... I've...
