Doing a film for school and got a crew of 10. I'm trying to look for some sort of free place to be able to talk about pre production and production stuff. Emailing has gotten confusing with people not always hitting 'reply all', making new emails, etc. I dont wanna make everyone get on the same...

I'm taking DP role for a Video Short I'm doing in school. I've done my own projects and would like to try to go down the path of DP, but this will my first time using a script and having a full crew and lights. (I was always by myself or another person) Besides storyboards. What else should I...

I feel like I went into some other demension. Scrap the whole site and keep it simple. WAY too much going on...I still have no clue where to click. People should find what they need in less then 2 seconds. If you sent me to that site for a job I wouldn't even try to navigate through that site...

YES The sandlot will always be among my top 5 favorite movies of all time. I remember watching that almost everyday and then going outside and playing baseball until we couldn't see the ball anymore. Awesome.

so where do I place the code? anywhere in the body? or the header? and I don't even have the email link thru a 'mail to' . its just text. So maybe its not a problem?

I just put a personal web page where I can have my portfolio, resume, etc together. Still a student so its looking slim, but it'll be nice to have everything on one site. Anyone have any advice on things to change? What to write? etc? I didn't really know what to write on the opening page...

Thanks for all the replies guys, I probably should've added a bit of what my plans are. Like I said I'm still a student and will be finishing up a BA in the next year. As far as interest goes I don't have a set craft that I want to do. I really do enjoy everything thats involved in the film...

I'm still a college student with another year left, but I'm dying to get my own equipment. I'm looking to spend $2,000 on a quick start up (DVX100 + accessories) and then build as I go along. I'm debating whether or not to try to up the limit on one of my credit cards or take out a loan. I know...

haha....k nevermind I found it. After hours of searching I always tend to find what I'm looking for 5 mins after I post on a forum O well. Here is the link for anyone interested: Glidetrack http://www.glidetrack.com/

I thought it was one this forum...but it might of been another. I saw someone (in the UK I believe) that made their own 'track' cam. I forget what he called them but it was either a 'track'cam, 'glide'cam, 'slide'cam, something like that. It was a track with two rails about 6' long (different...

I'm writing a script and most of it entails a guy telling a story and the images being of that story played out. Is there any scripts or examples online that have this properally formatted? Do you do the usually scene headings and tell what's happening while inserting dialogue as a o.s or voice...

This book was recommended to me by a teacher so I was thinking bout getting it as my intrest in cinematography has been growing. I've noticed that the new 9th edition is two volumes. Is it worth getting this one and lugging around an extra book or should I just stick with the 8th edition? Or is...

I would assume its still illegal because it's still copywritten music. I'm pretty sure it doesn't matter if you are making a profit of it or not. Thats more the moral line people use I think. If its for a portfolio it might not matter and you could get away with it. But some people may not want...

I'm in school right now finishing up my bachelors (Communication - Film Production). Don't feel like you have to know everything when you go to school, but it helps if you have a general idea of how things work. The best would be to get hands on experience making shorts which it sounds like you...

Thanks for the advice. Unfortunately there was no way to set up any sort of blankets the way the room was set up or how we were shooting. However one thing we did was record alot of the audio from below as someone suggested. It came out better than I thought it would. There was another room...
