    I'm back!

    Did you miss me? Do you even remember me? HA. For the last 4 years I've been in poor health, was on disability and only shot one film, which will never see the eyes of public viewing. lol I've recently been released from disability and now looking for work. I've been working with a local...

    White balance depending on situation

    This is for video only. The way I was always taught was to hold a white paper (Or any other object that is white) about 8 feet from the front of your camera lens. Then zoom in on the object and white balance on that. Also you will want to focus your camera at the same time. Make sure that...

    Advice on how to deal with actors

    No worries. I really didn't think that you were trying to cause anything. I am very direct when I talk on the net and don't use smiles as much as I should. I may have come off as stern; not as light as I intended. And now random smiles :) :) :)

    Advice on how to deal with actors

    Yes, I agree in general. I am supposing that the original poster is not one of those types of people that you have mentioned and giving them the encouragement to not let their lack of experience or the actors good experience hold them back. I am hoping that this won't be one of those cases you...

    Advice on how to deal with actors

    When you get people on your set that are amazingly great actors you will then rise up to that level. I had someone who is a very talented actress that has now gone on to star in a movie with Megan Fox, John Malkovich, Josh Brolin and others. She made my movie for just food, water and treating...

    Director goggles?

    I was curious myself about it and found a note on this web page. it is down toward the bottom . Some other websites say that it was a science choice as they also wore lab coats and treated filmmaking as a science rather than an art. To me it doesn't make sense either way because only one...

    2 Male Actors for a parody

    Here is the breakdown. Male/late 20s and older/ African American Morgan Freeman type. (Ability to mimic Morgan Freeman's voice preferred/Looks like not necessary) Must have deadpan comedic timing. Male 20s to 30s/White Geek type (Looks like Bill Gates/PC on the mac vs. pc commercials) Must...

    Stop By. Shoot Film.

    It is the exact reason that Randall gave when he was telling me that he as been doing this for over 20 some years. It was just so awesome, for me anyway, to be able to do this.

    Stop By. Shoot Film.

    Long time no post. I just had to tell of my experience at shooting with a film camera. The Sarasota Film Festival had an event that was called Stop By. Shoot Film. Presented by Kodak. I scheduled my time (which by the way was completely free!) to shoot on Sunday. I went and was pleasantly...

    Can an Editor become a director?

    I got into directing because I wanted to be an editor. Of course I never made any money except for editing, but hey you never know.

    Atheist viewpoint documentary

    Good stuff here. I personally have been trying to get many Christians around me to understand the way I feel without calling them ignorant (that type of behavior goes nowhere). They understand that I don't hate God, and that I personally do not want to wipe out theirs or anyone's religion.* I...

    Bullet Hits

    One trick I read in a book (can't remember the name), take a frig magnet and wrap it in aluminum foil then pull back the foil on one side. Attach the foil covered side on the car. If you are not too close the illusion will look decent.

    Relationship-Themed Short Film Contest

    I have to state something here so that everyone knows. There is a law in Canada that requires contestants to complete a skill-testing question in contests. Here is a link I would personally like to apologize for any bad things I said in here. The contest is legitimate. The more you know...
