    Anyone ever use a fog/smoke machine on a shoot?

    Yes they work great. I use a cheap $30 one from Iparty. To keep the fog closer to the ground just have it pass through a styrofoam cooler with dry ice in it. The ice will cool the fog enough so it sticks low to the ground. Just be prepared and organized on set, as turning the fog on will be...

    How can I make my characters look like they're watching television

    I've already shot my scene. They do look like they're watching tv but is there anything in post that could make it more convincing, without having to reshoot the scene?

    How can I make my characters look like they're watching television

    So I have a night scene in a living room where two characters exchange dialogue as they watch television. The tv is never shown but the remote is and the act of what they're doing is implied. I have my characters pretend to watch the tv as they exchange dialogue but I would like to make it...

    Syria

    It's not my intention to start up any sort of controversy here. I figured this is in the lobby, if this doesn't appeal to you, that's a perfectly good opinion. They're all opinions, in my opinion. I wouldn't mind if it's deleted, if I've broken some rule. I understand some people do not...

    Syria

    I hope you all are having a good day. I was watching Rt news today and Syria and what's going on right now is really taking my thoughts away from my filmmaking. It feels like this is the start of something big. Anyway, straight to the point, what is everyone's thoughts on what's going on...

    Tips for aspiring director?

    Honestly, best advice so far imo. Things WILL go wrong. Just like in life things do not always occur as you expect them to. Our crew just lost our makeup effects artist and our lead actor. No biggie. Things will always go wrong. The point is, don't get flustered. Don't make excuses...

    Tips for aspiring director?

    If you want to be the best at anything, it's going to take hard work and a lot of hours. You need to think beyond jobs and careers and the physical world. Connect with who you are my friend. Think about what makes you tick, and why you want to do this. Think about your priorities in life...

    Filming in the woods at night

    That really depends on what you have to work with. I'd advise, just don't shoot it at night. If you must shoot it at night, get a generator and a bunch of extension cords for the lighting, assuming there won't be any outlets near by, you can plug into the generator.

    Makeup and Prosthetic Tips Anyone?

    I see your point, I do, but this isn't a "professional" film shoot to begin with. If by professional you mean having years upon years of experience and learning. We're 22, and are self taught. This is our passion. As a director and creator of our production company, I want to be well versed...

    Makeup and Prosthetic Tips Anyone?

    Turns out the makeup artist we listed for our upcoming project needed to back out for personal reasons. Now me and my team of three are left to do our own alien makeups. Any tips people? Perhaps creating a prosthetic and some different colored makeup? I'm not a makeup artist, although me and...

    If anyone here is a fan of Joe Rogan you'd immediately see all that's hidden, or not so hidden haha.

    New Logo

    Obelisks/pyramids, the all seeing eye and the molecule is Dymethlytriptomine or DMT (i'm hoping DMT stands out in "DiMiTri's") The logo as a whole, however, is not an indication to my beliefs or any other member of Dimitri's Dream. The obelisks line up to scale with the three major...

    New Logo

    Curious if anyone has picked up a message or details about the logo? There are hidden ones and obvious ones. The reason I loved this logo the most and chose it is because everything means something in it. Perhaps my "conspiracy theory" people or world history people may see some. Or my...

    New Logo

    Chimp Phobia, no, I did not make it. My girlfriend freelances and she made the logo for us. Cyrogenic, that version, yes. That will be our smaller logo for posters and dvds. We will be releasing our large, more detailed and fully colored logo along with our first short film this September...
