    watch Neuroxica - Short Horror Film

    Thanks very much for checking it out! The face was digital, and was warped pieces of the performer's face, tracked back onto his normal features, so it looks fairly natural with the movement and whatnot.

    How to get a professional sound for a project for newcomers.

    Everything is relative my man. The "bare bones," kit you mention above as a minimum for a film student....just different worlds I guess. If you are dedicating all your spare funds to your sound gear, than that DR60 kit you mentioned would be I guess, a living under the bridge realm for you...

    The artist's way of life

    One thing I can gather from reading about countless filmmakers/painters/musicians, and the journey/struggles that they faced, they were all chasing an idea or some sort of specific inspiration, and they didn't waiver from it, regardless of the consequences. Even if they failed that first...

    How to get a professional sound for a project for newcomers.

    Ahhhhh c'mon. Yeah you should record in highest quality possible with your gear, just meant as a baseline, record .wav's with at least 16 bit audio instead of running it back out to record onto your camera. Elaborate a bit more on that if you can, because if you are a sound professional doing...

    hollywood Ever Wonder Why Hollywood is At a Creative Low?

    Also, just adding something...I REALLY am bothered by the above attitude in the industry. People working in Hollywood that don't consider filmmaking an art, is really just the bottom of the barrel for me. They remind me of lawyers or salesmen that are just trying to earn a buck. Really not the...

    hollywood Ever Wonder Why Hollywood is At a Creative Low?

    I appreciate that someone that knew the guy came in here to reply, thanks. However by what you are saying it stills sounds like the guy had a bone to pick with young, talented filmmakers. It sounds like he appreciated crew that helped him with his projects, and was threatened by young...

    The artist's way of life

    Meh, I don't think dreamer=perfectionist. Perfectionism can come and go with people, like they may be a perfectionist with color, but not with performance...some people demand perfection from the camera move, and allow collaboration with other things. I think an artists' talents, skills and most...

    The artist's way of life

    I am absolutely dissatisfied with reality lol...I don't mean my life, or my fellow human beings, but I mean I don't get ideas about reality...crime stories, love stories, gritty stories about drug addiction or gangs or coming of age stories...absolutely ZERO ideas lol. All very boring in terms...

    hollywood Ever Wonder Why Hollywood is At a Creative Low?

    Sort of seen the general creative and unique qualities of Hollywood films degrade a bit over the last 2 decades? I certainly have...especially when it comes to SciFi and Fantasy, but there is also a massive lack of good action and adventure films....have not really seen anything that gives me...

    Vimeo Passwords Keep Breaking - Ruining My Festival Submissions

    You know what sucks? When the "standard," thing that everyone loves and demands stops working for my business ventures. My Vimeo passwords keep breaking. Filmfreeway.com is what I use to submit to festivals, and most festivals take Vimeo links with a password. Well, Vimeo's password system has...

    Need Costume Designer or Cosplayer for Sci Fi Costume

    Hello, I am looking high and low for a costume designer to make something for a music video that will shoot next February. I am searching through Cosplay communities as well, and have reached out to some bigger cosplayers, because the things these communities create are unbelievably...

    How to get a professional sound for a project for newcomers.

    With my sound recording, in the last several years, I've been hands off, and I love that. The intricacies of sound record and design are tough...it is a very technical craft. If you can find a sound person that is non-union, but recommended from another sound person, then maybe you could...

    Need to Make a Character Explode

    Nice! That's very cool. I don't think I'll be able to use real explosives though, certainly not if we end up going legitimate with our permits/location.

    Need to Make a Character Explode

    AH MAN, I had a link all ready to go and you beat me to the idea! Yes, an inflatable doll is PERFECT. I could buy a ton of them, and they are already air tight...

    Need to Make a Character Explode

    Yeah true dat. I don't want the audience to see too much "confetti," coming from him. I am going to need to do a test with this to see what happens. I think I will need to obscure most of the details with smoke/dust that billows out. Will need the right sand/dirt/powder. I will have random...

    Need to Make a Character Explode

    With the actress in there too, it would be trickier I believe, because you have an additional variable that could go wrong while you are trying to pull off the effect. If she doesn't hit her mark perfectly, or this or that, we will have to reset the explosion effect. I believe the trick here...

    Need to Make a Character Explode

    Yeah a lab suit is a great idea, already is shaped like a person, and I could have a duplicate outfit that is cut up into pieces and glued back together on top of the lab suit. Then, when the lab suit explodes, his costume will come apart with it. I think a lab suit is great. Any other ideas...

    Need to Make a Character Explode

    It's serious. Goal is to use the right lens and framing to make it appear like it's this guy, from the back, sort of hunched over looking at this dart in his arm. It will cut from the dart hitting his arm, to his eyes widening, to the very first frame of the fake body exploding. This way, the...

    Need to Make a Character Explode

    I need to make a villain explode for a music video. He gets hit with an explosive dart, and boom baby. This happens in a dark tunnel or something similar. The character is in a sort of Mad Max'ish outfit, like a post apocalyptic gangster, and right now my idea involves possibly making like a...
