    Do yourself a favor and watch Chungking Express by Wong Kar-Wai. It could give you some ideas. Very refreshing film.

    watch short film - student film - G9

    You should try your hand at more horror/ suspense. There's not a lot of borrow films out there from your region, and I think you might have a back for it. Local legends, superstitions... that kind of thing.

    I meant in the description. Putting it that way makes it sound like she has an STD:lol:

    It depends... what is the point of the presentation? To get a job?

    Looks and Technique, Where Have You Gone?

    I'm been browsing the site a bit now... watching stuff that people have posted and giving feedback, etc. Something's been bothering me about the majority of what I've seen, though. Many of the finished projects I see look the same. They all have a very digital/ DV feel to them and there...

    watch Elaine- a short zombie movie

    Well, if that's the case then you need to establish that. When people watch something involving zombies, they assume that they are the living dead, the common definition of zombie. If your zombies don't follow the popular perception of what a zombie is, it's motivations, etc. then you need to...

    watch Elaine- a short zombie movie

    I did like it, but probably not in the way you intended. I found it funny because it was so illogical. Who would think to do that to a zombie? WHY would you do that to a zombie? It could have been taken to a more macabre extreme, where we really see that your protagonist is a bit nuts...

    watch SEOUL NIGHTS is complete! FIlmed on location. Need your inputs.

    Korean Donut Man, Reading your responses make we wonder if you planned out the scenes ahead of time, via blocking or storyboards. Did you do a walkthrough where you were filming so that you could choose the best, most dynamic shots before you shot? If you have all of that good to go before...

    watch 9:00 Short Film. "Dice"

    That's a toughie... editing isn't a mechanical process, it's more organic. And the more varied camera angles you have the more effective edits you'll be able to make. There's a flow and ebb to editing much like waves crashing across a beach. It's rhythmic... sometimes it's steady and slow...

    The reason you didn't like the close up of the finger was that it's a bad edit. If you go back and watch, the finger approaches the button during the long shot and then when we go into the closeup, the finger is a different distance from the button than when we cut (it's further away), creating...

    I liked it. It started off a bit slow, but the middle was good. Nice use of color. Good actress.

    watch Critique my 2-minute promotional piece for a holiday cottage

    Generally, I like it. There are some things I would change, though. At the beginning with the still photos... I'd put some sort of transitions between these. You used hard cuts. In a project like this, you're trying to sell a dream-like quality, and the hard edits here are a little jarring...

    What Camera should I buy with this much?

    Well, it's a little more complicated than "I have XXX money, what camera should I get." It really depends what you want the look of your project to be, what file formats you can work with, and what features you need from the camera. On the high end, I would recommend a PD-150 or PD-170 if you...

    Matte Box

    OK, so I'm a control freak. I want total control over my image... I want the look I want with as little fiddling in post-production as possible. So I'm looking at getting a matte box and some French flags for my HD110U; but before I drop the cash I want to know... is having a matte box and...

    JVC GY-HD110U

    I own it, I love it, I'm shooting my 1st short film with it. Very versatile; you can get (for almost the price of the camera) an adapter to let you shoot film lenses on it, plus it's the only camera in it's price class that has interchangeable lenses. It's 24p gives it a very very very close...
