Thank you documentarytube and rockerrockstar for the postive comments. Cracker Funk, I can see your point somewhat. This probably wouldn't be very helpful in trying to pass a test on these subjects. But I think someone can still learn something outside of "book knowledge" stuff, such as how...

Thanks.... I guess I intended it for a general audience, but I think it could be helpful to middle school and high school students learning about World War II. I mean, it is pretty short and (I think) simple, and so I think it could help bring the text book information to life. But I guess it...

Hi everyone, Today being December 7th, I naturally thought it would be a fitting time to share this film with you. I have mixed feelings about it, but I hope it will still serve in some measure as a fitting commemoration of an important event in United States and World War II history...

Hello everyone, I've been helping to organize a short films program/mini film festival to be held at UNC Wilmington's Lumina Theater this November. We would like to include some more films in the program, preferably from filmmakers close by, but I invite filmmakers from other areas to consider...

I hope this question doesn't come across as snappish; I was just wondering, in your view does shooting in one location with three characters always mean aiming not as high as shooting in many other locations with many other characters? Considering some major films, I would think shooting in one...

I haven't read everything here but I think it is definitely possible for $1000 to be a good budget for a very short film, if you have the right factors in place. In my experience, spending more money doesn't always equal better. There's a difference, in my belief, between necessary and...

Thanks everyone, I appreciate the advice. Like I said, I know hardly anything about shooting on film. I was hoping that if I can put up the money for a short on actual film, I could find someone who can handle the technical stuff. I've been disappointed with a lot of digital problems I've had...

Hi, I know hardly anything about shooting on film, but I might be willing to hire someone who knows how to for a short film (2-5 min). I'm wondering if someone could give me some insight on this, for example how much money it would cost including buying the film and getting someone to shoot...

Thanks, I really appreciate that. This is possibly the first film of mine that I'm not greatly disappointed with, even though it could always be better.

It looks nicely made and touches on a really important subject.

Thanks for your comment and for your question. Some of the material is public domain, but some of the animations come from Givemefreeart.com, which lets you download material to use in projects without fees. I also used the website PacDV for some sound effects (that can be used free of charge...

As you can tell by the title, this is a documentary about the environment. The style might be different from a lot of other films here, as I used a lot of archive material. But I was fortunate to have a narrator, which I think helped. The film was included in the Short Films Program of the 2011...

Christmas Day has passed, but the holiday season continues. This is just a little holiday short film I put together. There is no story. In a way, you could say I made it just for "fun". If you don't like it, I can understand. But I hope the warm wishes of its message come to fruition in your...

Hi Raindrop. Welcome.

With the version of Windows Movie Maker that I use, I think I can pixelate a video image (it's one of the effects) but maybe not just a certain part of that image, like a person's face. About changing people's voices, you may be able to make the voice faster or slower if you use the speed up or...
