For a project I need to take a movie and make a trailer with it. My goal is to take a well known film and edit it to seem like it's a completely different story than it was originally made to be. Any thoughts or suggestions on which movie would be good and what I could turn it into? Thanks...

I understand the fact that a good picture does not in fact mean it has to be big. But my question is in regards to the BIG pictures.

Other than the obvious answer that they all have $$$. What work ethics do the great directors possess? What qualities other than (having connections) do all they have that allows them to make the big pictures? I understand the fact that a good picture does not in fact mean it has to be big. But...

My budget is anything under $1,000. My dream would be to get the Sony Handy Cam that has interchangeable lenses but I'm thinking that is not gonna happen! I'm a film student and my main reason for wanting one is to make my own short films, or documentaries in my free time. I want something...

You know how when you film a television screen digitally and there are lines running across it? Well basically I'm wondering if that effect will happen with a Krasnogrask 3, 16mm camera. I'm guessing no. But I figured I would double-check with you fine people. Thanks!

Ahh, okay! Well I guess I will just try for the fade-in/out. And I do that by closing and and opening my aperture?

Thanks for the great suggestions. I guess I am going to have to hope for a calm day wind-wise! Also, I have one more question. How do you achieve a fade-in/fade-out with a 16mm K-3? I'm guessing fade-in is to go all the way closed on my f-stop and opposite for fade-out?

Hello, I am making a short film, and have a question. My film is about a child chasing a balloon around a town. I want the balloon to look as if it is controlling itself and floating around on its own. How could I achieve this? Especially if there is wind?? All I can think of is to have...

I am actually not sure what effects I want to achieve. This is a film for class where I am only allowed to use a K-3. I want to do some expiremental things. In my film I want to have my subject having a day dream. I figured an Iris in would be a good way to convey a dream/fantasy. But is there...

Hello all! I am wondering if you could list a few effects that are possible when filming with a 16mm Krasnogorsk (K-3). Also could you say how it is possible to achieve these effects. I already know how to do fast and slow motion but that is about it! For example how do I achieve iris out or...

Once I finish undergraduate school with my BFA in motion picture production my goal is to go on to grad school. My goal is either USC or UCLA. I am not delusional, I know these are tough to get into :) What exactly do these school like to see as extra curriculers and such? Thanks!

How to color one object in black and white film stock Hello! I am currently a film student. We are working with 16 mm black and white film. For this project I am using kodak plus-x film. I want to be creative and "wow" my film teacher. In my film I want a certain object to appear in color. For...
