I just binged Sunderland ‘til I Die on Netflix and it’s great, even if you don’t like soccer/football and docs. It follows a team in the UK as they try to make it back up into the Premier League, but a lot of it is from the perspective of the fans and the people behind the scenes. One thing I...

Welcome!

Of course, it depends on what your specific goals are: make money, get a career going, make another film, get famous, etc... +1 for Film Festivals, generally speaking. It's a fantastic way to meet all sorts of people (I met a guy on a bus, who got my number, he then literally won an Academy...

I've been in the same boat many times. I LOVE making short films (mostly documentary) but I've learned to have very specific goals about distribution and exposure - because, as Mlesemann pointed out, nobody cares as much as you. I made one short just because I needed some car and action...

NICE! Thanks for the feedback. Yeah we love some good genre bending. We have no idea what to call it either.

Welcome!

Ha yes - thankfully they were all still there when we got back...😬

Ha! Nice. Thanks man! Glad you liked it. Check out the band Wargirl - they did all the music for our show. Hopefully, in the future, we'll be able them to actually SCORE the show for us (this was all pre-made, instrumentals they had in the library).

Hollywood was right. But that didn't stop us. I've been making films for other people for 15 years, and I wanted to make something of my own. So I spent the last three years developing, filming, editing, re-editing, pitching, re-editing, re-naming, and re-editing a travel show pilot, and...

I work in the music/film world (mostly documentaries) and most of the time I find temp music on YouTube's music library to find the right mood, and then I'll usually hit up a composer (or band) I know to sub in/compose the final music. But that way I'm able to experiment with different...

Sound Of Music Back To The Future There Will Be Blood man, but Shawshank Redemption...

Welcome! Where ya from?

Being a documentary filmmaker, I gravitate toward utilitarian qualities. So with cameras, either Sony FS7 for its 4K, XLR audio, and built in ND, or, if I have the budget and personnel, Arri Mini for its simplicity and delicious interface and post work flow. Lens wise, I’ve been fairly partial...

WEST HAM!!! +1

Nice! Welcome!

Hi! How’s Serbia doing these days??

Hey! I LOVE this effect. Back when I was directing music videos, I did one for a band called Cold War Kids doing this type of double timelapses/real filming side by side and layering them. I had the luxury of having 2 or 3 cameras, but you could totally do it with one if you have some control...

Hi! Sounds like a cool project. Most the videos from that era were shot on 35mm film, which had/has a lot of latitude (depth) so getting a proper (s35) cinema camera would be a great start - something like a Red or Arri Mini. Then, and probably more importantly, some fast prime lenses...

Great stuff! Very cool edit transitions and good balance between close up textures and big wides. And great overall pace! What gear did you use to shoot it?

Uhhh, We Bought A Zoo. And it's NOT a comedy??
