    Anyone recommend a good SFX program?

    Thanks for all the advice. Yeah, I am more concerned with committing to a good effects program than the actual price. You both have given me a lot to think about. Thanks again!

    Anyone recommend a good SFX program?

    Thanks for the help guys. Those Fusion videos were great... though I can't stand it when narrators of these types of videos constantly say "uhhh" and "uhmmm" after every sentance :grrr: Fusion pricing is way out of my league. And like Oak said, the cheaper ones seem to fall a bit short. I'll...

    I'm on a PC. And I thought SFX = Special Effects. :huh:

    Anyone recommend a good SFX program?

    I'm looking into doing some CGI effects... you know, greenscreen shots, digital blood splatter, etc etc. Any recommendations? Someone told me about Visionlab over at FXhome.com. Looks pretty good and a low price. Any others that people know of and have tried?

    One Flew Over The Cuckoos Nest

    I really did not like the film "Million Dollar Baby" for that very reason. Even more so because the story did a complete and unexpected 180 on me right in the middle. It was built up a certain way, and I was looking forward to a warm and inspired ending :grumpy:

    Need help with a movie title...

    I found it before anyone responded, so I figured no one even cared. And then people started guessing, so I didn't want to spoil the fun. The movie was "No Such Thing", which was made in Iceland (not Ireland) in 2001. I never saw it, but I remembered it was a movie I had wanted to see.

    Need help with a movie title...

    There was a foreign movie that came out maybe 4-6 years ago about a woman who goes to interview a reclusive monster and falls in love with him (i think). For some reason I think it was an Irish movie, but I could be wrong. Pretty vague, I know :D

    Who wants to read a script??! Yay!

    Good point about the name. We both knew a weird guy named Seymour, which is who we loosely based him on. But if his names brings up images of a "nerd" type guy, that isn't a good thing. I'll add this to my growing list of changes needed. Thanks :)

    Who wants to read a script??! Yay!

    My friend and I wrote a low-budget horror script a few years ago and recently broke it out to see if there is a potential movie there. We've done some re-writes and fine tuning, but at this point, we don't know what else to do with it to give it that special "umphf!". If anyone is willing to...

    watch First short

    Any movie that stars Conan O'Brien is awesome! :D But seriously, it was incomplete for my tastes. You set it up that Conan was following the girl, but then seemed to pick a random room instead. Then some other guy shows up the next morning and enters the room (the door being unlocked...
