Got it! I'm gonna see if I can try one I'm interested in at best buy or something.

So mini DV Camcorders are a good idea I'm thinking, what do you guys think :huh: , I'm pretty sure I want one of the brands in this awesome little article I picked up: http://www.camcorderinfo.com/d/Reviews&level_b=Camcorder&level_c=MiniDV.htm :D As long as it's under $200 and isn't a piece...

Well I have a Sony Cybershot, but I wanna focus on VIDEOS not photos. I wouldn't wanna flip style video camera either.

im making short films, and my budget is under $200

I need a camcorder, it's my first. Please help i dunno really how to shop for one.

Thank you! So you think I should add many conflicts in my scenes to keep a good exciting tension in the audience? Can I have a video example of pacing, it should help make my conflicts better right?

sorry what's pacing, ive heard of it before...

Same issue kind of. Well this is what I do and I know some other filmmakers who do the same: just write down the scenarios in your head in a little memo notepad and have them archived so you can keep those scenarios. They could be very useful. Oh yeah and call that memo note pad your filmmaking...

:) I'm making my first Drama and I need some help on keeping my story exciting, it's based on a realistic fictional dj's story to fame. Please tips?:huh:

I'd think to keep it professional no matter what, good for the whole set's experience and yourself. Unless your doing fun little random youtube videos or something and your not a partner or anything, then it doesn't really matter.

seriously thanks, glad i didn't try it yet.

Admin. Quick question why can't i post threads in the D.I.Y forum?

Hi, guys. Hope to learn more on independant filmmaking on here.

Im pretty sure you could just break them up when your characters are changing subjects of conversation, f it's all about one subject and you think it's too long it could lose audience's interest. Really I'm not positive it's just an opinion.
