If you gave your all into making a short film, I think it's always worth submitting it to film festivals. As for it being festival-worthy (being selected for a screening), you won't know unless you send it and let the programmers decide for themselves.

I'm considering becoming self-employed and work as a Freelance Videographer. This is new to me and I do have a lot of questions about it, but I suppose the most important one is this: once you've started an independent business how do you advertise yourself, or let potential clients know about...

Should I mention my rate on speculative emails / letters or do I leave that out and safe it for negotiations? Thanks.

If you have to film and interview shy people, how would you go about mitigating their "camera-shyness" in order to help them feel comfortable being filmed in an interview?

I have been asked to come in for a job trial session for the "Photo Editor" position. They are a sportswear company. Silly question but what type of clothes should I wear for the trial, formal (suit and tie) or casual? I rarely go to job trials. Thanks.

Does anyone know where I can watch the short film "Quay" (2015) directed by Nolan? Thanks.

Out of curiosity, can this intro be created (purely) in After Effects (without third party plugins)? Thanks. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nKNuwjMJEjk

8 months ago my contract got terminated (I worked as a Videographer/Video Editor) and I'm currently looking for a similar full-time role. Based on my job search almost all job requirements include some degree of experience or knowledge of creating motion graphics and using After Effects. This...

Thanks for the replies. Also, I can't seem to find information about the company. Not even a website. Let's just say, theoretically, Minster has been liquidated (no longer in business) and the law indeed forbids logos from appearing in short films without consent, would showing Minster's logo...

Thank you for comments.

When you're choosing music for your showreel, should you be concerned about copyright or getting permission from artists?

According to the Adobe site, Premiere Pro CS6's display requirement is 1280 X 900. My macbook's display is 1280 X 800. Does anyone know if I can I still be able to install and run the software on my macbook without problem? Thanks.

It was recorded in h.364 yes. My workflow is: colour grade clips in FilmConvert (standalone) and export. Then bring colour graded clips to Final Cut Express, edit and export. Not a typo. It's kbps in Final Cut Express - and probably Final Cut Pro too.

I'm having a difficult time trying to get rid of compression artefacts, specifically in the shadow area. Examples can be found below, https://www.dropbox.com/sh/kqtkgebqrik7j6k/AAAh2tbVJ93beWNg0HNQIgMua?dl=0 I was wondering what can be done to solve this? For context: the raw footage was...
