    Shopping for a New City

    So what your saying is I should probably cross Ohio off the list...?

    Shopping for a New City

    Hey all, I'm a filmmaker currently residing in Madison Wisconsin, and though the film scene here is fun (fairly close knit, but also small), I'm thinking it might be time for a change of scenery. So...how is the scene in your city? I'm primarily looking for somewhere in the United States, but...

    Commentary Track

    I'm recording behind-the-scenes commentary for my most recent project this weekend. I've never done one of these before, so I'm wondering if there is anything I should watch out for or make sure I do before I start. My plan is to record is on an external mic (3 people will be giving group...

    How Long is Too Long for a Photo Montage?

    Yeah, I can understand that. Mostly I just wanted to get first impressions, general feelings, to use as a guideline during my editing process. Maybe I'll post just that segment of the project when it's completed. It would be out of context, but you'd have the visual reference.

    How Long is Too Long for a Photo Montage?

    It's pretty much a scene--there's something of a story to it. It's starts with the crew shooting two actors on a couch. Then they cut the scene, adjust lights/camera, touch up makeup, there's a brief dispute about a line, they go back to shooting, then cut and everyone starts to wrap up for...

    How Long is Too Long for a Photo Montage?

    Hiya, I'm editing a project right now, it's a 22 minute pilot to air on a website (risky already, I know, so don't even say it). In the middle of the episode there is a photo montage, which is a sequence of "behind-the-scenes" black and white photos on an adult film set set to kind of groovy...

    What program do you use to edit?

    FCP at home/for my personal creative work, since that is what the educational institution I went to was focused on at the time I was purchasing personal editing software. I don't really like the lack of integration with AE, but what are you going to do? They're competitors. At my 9-5 they use...

    watch NEW INDIE COMEDY TRAILER

    Interesting...I'll be looking out for more on this one for sure. I also second the question above--did you work on this film?

    watch DAMN PRETTY THING- Black Comedy Short

    I see what you did there. :lol: Is this a short or a feature? Either way, I'm interested to see the full film. And I am JEALOUS of that car.

    watch fast pace action trailer vs drama driven trailer, which one is better?

    I really liked the slow build at the beginning of the dramatic trailer, but it didn't go anywhere, you know? I expected it to rise to either a fast-paced or inspiring finish, and while it *kind of* got there, I think it could have landed a little bit better considering all the footage it seems...

    Newbie Questions regarding beginner setup.

    You could also volunteer as a PA on someone else's set (doesn't have to be professional, you can just look for a project that interests you). You won't make any money but you won't spend any either, and it's a great way to get a LOT of experience in a very condensed amount of time. Not only will...

    Summer for Winter?

    Shades of blue gels and dimmer switches? What kind of lighting equipment do you have access to at the moment?

    Whats your film workflow?

    Based on a lot of trial and error (mostly error;)) my flow has been like this for my most recent projects. Still working out the bugs, but it's a much better approach than when I first started: 1) Come up with idea for script and write a rough outline 2) Figure out the basic resources I'd need...
