The audio seemed good at the theater :) I need to watch it at home. (Since I have no speakers here at work)

Thanks, I'll check it out when I get home today. Sounds like the same problem I'm having.

Hi all, I'm new to Apple, and to Final Cut Studio. I finished editing a short I shot 4 years ago, and when I burned it on a DVD and when I encoded it to play on my PS3 I noticed when there is a quick black flash every time it cut to the next scene. I zoomed in to the time-line thinking maybe...

Thanks Will. It's a good link. Very informative website.

Thanks Knightly. I'll check it out when I get home after work. Of course nothing beats rolling up your sleeves and actually doing it. I messed around with it a bit. I read on the link that it's not an exact science. I just hope after I'm done it comes off looking ok. Just understanding the whole...

That's a good article. Thanks for posting it. Does anyone have any helpful links or recommendations for novice people like myself with the whole color correction? I just made a short 6 min short, and I wanted to actually try to make it look better by correcting it in Premiere 1.5 any advice...

Thanks for the advice guys. I was on Ebay a couple of weeks ago and I was checking out boom poles. Right now we're using a PVC one which is only like 6ft long so it's not bad, and I have another one which is made out of wood, so that's when I saw the Wind Blimps. I have seen some DIYS online...

I have a Canon XL2 question to ask. I've been looking at lenses for my camera. since I have that zoom lens it came with it makes it quite difficult shooting in tight places. It looks like there is a ton of lenses to choose from. I have seen the wide angle lens that screws on the current lens...

I have a question about boom mics. Has anyone here used a wind blimp? If so does it really help matters when it comes to blocking the wind? (Of course with in reason)

Hey Will - I'm assuming you did the 48HFP last weekend. How was it? I got in so Tomorrow I head out to kick off in SF.

Welcome Back and Good Luck Will. I signed up for the 48 HFP too here in SF, but I'm on the waiting list. We'll see if I get in or not. If not then I think there's one coming up in San Jose in August. This is my 1st time, and I heard it's pretty exciting.

Cool Congrats! Now does that make the copy I bought a few months ago a "Collector's Item" ;)

Yeah "too shocking" is something that is being thrown around lately. I just saw the movie "Rest Stop" over the weekend, and well it wasn't "too shocking" not to be shown in theaters at all. It wasn't bad at all. Actually it was the best of the three movies I rented this weekend. (Dark Fields...

Have you guys seen these commericals about 8 films that are going to be shown in the theaters for 1 weekend? I was trying to find out if anyone knew if there's a release date for these movies on DVD. I would like to go, but as a parent sometimes, I don't to go out to the theaters as often as I...

Goldy - I actually went to Fry's yesterday, and they don't have the Canon anymore. (Then again I haven't looked in the camera dept in a long time) I went there to see if they had any cool accessories. Didn't find anything. The only people that seem helpful are the guys in the Comp area. (You...

Goldy - No I didn't get my XL2 at Fry's. I found it on line, for a cheaper price. It did take like 2 weeks to get it when they said it was in stock. The package came with an hard case, tapes, extra battery, UV Filter, and it was still like 600 bucks less than Fry's. I know what you mean about...

Clive - Yeah I agree with the whole family and friends can create more problems. I had a few close friends that I just decided that I will not use them at all anymore. Not just because they didn't know their lines, but they never even looked at the script I sent them weeks ago. I also talked to...

Knightly - I like the idea of the line by line shot. I've always thought about doing it that way, but just figured it would take awhile, BUT with that said I have changed things I'm doing. I'm being pickier with the scenes. I'm not settling for "Oh good enough" especially when someone on set...

Boz, I'll have to check out some of those books out. That's one thing I'm starting to do is the Storyboard. I'm not a good artist at all so I just draw stick figures, and how I want the scene to be like. I'm just passing off some of my duties to other so I can concentrate on other things like...

I've read some books on this subject, but there is always the "alternative" to everything. I like to ask people what their style/Techniques are. Especially after reading numberous of posts here, I know there are ALOT of very Expierenced People here that I hope I can get some advice from. I've...
