    Hello again...

    Just want to say "hello". Been off these forum threads for a long time... I joined back in 2003. Since then, I have moved from the house I built in 1989, Gahanna, (suburb of Columbus), Ohio to buying a house on the coast of Oregon (ocean to the west surrounded by forests and mountains). Ocean...

    Copyright Info U should watch

    I constantly see on indietalk and else where on the net, people asking about copyright(s). I personally copyright and do a secure register with the LOC (library of congress) on almost everything I do. I get all releases on everything I shoot (talent, location, etc.), whether I charge or do a...

    new of the new -- getting the most on a new cam

    BACKSTORY -- so you will understand what I am asking advice about. I have been a member of IndieTalk a long time, but have not created many threads due to a wide range of projects that I am involved with (most are not story-telling/film-making). I am not rich, famous or want to be, so my...

    Back from IndieMeet, a thanks 2 Scoopicman!

    Just back from IndieMeet in Las Vegas. Was there for Friday night and all day Saturday. Thank you Scoopicman. Met so many really cool film-makers from Las Vegas area (& a few from west coast). Learned a lot. Laughed even more. I was disappointed that I did not meet more residents of IndieTalk...

    God Bless America

    A very short while ago (last Friday night @ 10 PM to be exact), I watched Bob Goldthwait on Bill Maher talking GOD BLESS AMERICA. Soon to arrive @ theaters (as a small, very small indie release). Sounded like my kind of 'shock the monkey', push-the-envelope kind of movie. Imagine my shock when I...

    Trek to Las Vegas IndieMeet adventure

    Hope i explain this well enough to be understood. Words sometimes get in my way (darn amateur screen-hack and dumb film-maker that i am). Sorry about length too. Thinking about doing the trek from Ohio to Las Vegas (and back) for the annual IndieMeet (wanted to do this for a long time). So much...

    Another new camera (June release) @ Sony

    I am following cameras (and technology behind those cameras) closely these days. Still stuck with using my (mint) 3 1998/99 DVcam pro cameras for another five months (maybe longer) on 4 upcoming projects (for direct to DVD marketing -- docs not narrative -- projects with a ready market). I think...

    new and free!!!!

    I have visited, watched, swapped, commented, read the work of others over the past decade (that I have been on Indietalk). Yeah, I do not create many new threads or write on a lot of threads, (I do through E-mail and private mail -- cause their are so many great minds on this site and I like to...

    The big 'Hollywood' budgeted movies start

    The big 'Hollywood' budgeted movies start with John Carter. I grew up loving these books. Never thought the books would get made in to a quality movie. When I heard that they were starting production five years ago, I was dreading that they would destroy story while not being able to capture...

    End of the World

    Okay, I read a lot. Thus. Have many ideas for stories, no time to put on paper and/or complete most (99%er). Thought this might be fun. Not a challenge. But curious and creative fun. How will the earth end? Or how will humanity see it's last sunrise. Check this out... End of the World. I would...

    Shock Value...

    Whether you are a fan of the horror genre or not. IF you are a film maker, if you have any interest in understanding the current 'whys' (or evolution) of the film industry... especially the low budget, indie scene of the past 40 years, I have to recommend SHOCK VALUE by Jason Zinoman. The author...

    Does anyone know if YouTube counts

    Does anyone know if YouTube counts all hits of viewers, including those that watch through a placed URL (or download) on other Internet sites (such as IndieTalk.com)? Or does the count of viewers remain separate -- the URL verses the direct-to-YouTube viewer). I hope that I am asking this...

    The future of Cameras and Motion Image recording?

    Lytro (a light field camera) will be introduced next year -- they are calling it the world's first 4D consumer camera. While this camera is aimed at still photography first, it wont be long before Motion Image Cameras start to work with light field motion recording. Talk about realism in...

    American Horror Story

    Okay. I admit, I do not watch STANDARD TV (FOX, CBS, ABC or NBC) shows. All they do is disappoint. Mediocre dialogue, cardboard characters, easy to identify arcs, weak plots, etc. Even those that might have a good premise like Terra Nova, waste of time as far as I am concerned... However, there...

    Music I made in 75 still has a following... shocked!

    I did this music thing many years ago (as a soundtrack for a movie I wanted to make) ... the music still has a following AND SELLING (mildly hot in Europe today -- some kind of 60's/70's psychedelic retro crave)... I guess many think I am worth some copy after all these years. Color me shocked...
