Indie films I enjoyed recently (not sure about art house): The Lives of Others This is England City of God Once Zwartboek Sweet Sixteen Inside I'm Dancing

Thank you very much for posting this, I found the information very useful!

Cheers Motorstorm, we can highly recommend the combination of the JVC GYHD201 camera and the SGPro 35mm adapter (though the end result looks like a bazooka!). The company that produces SGPro adapters is based in UK as well... Cheers also ad2478!

I personally haven't seen any basic sample music contract online (I've seem samples but they are all complicated!)... And using a sample without reading it carefully is a very dangerous thing to do. You may overlook something very important stated in the sample contract (like "the Producer will...

I've posted the link in a different thread but this time I would like to get some feedback from fellow filmmakers... Please check out the link to an independent feature film Ambleton Delight with the production budget 6,000 GBP: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wMAZJCaS5t0&feature=related For...

I think your Vimeo version is so much better, especially the opening. It's a lot neater and cleaner and makes the band look more famous. YouTube version is grittier and the cinematography is quite rough but I suppose that's done on purpose... Cheers, I enjoyed the video. Itsuka

Hi benj09, Yeah we are actually already in development of the next project... I'd like to say "Send your script to us!" but truthfully we won't have time to sit down and read scripts properly at the moment... I'm probably stating the obvious but keep an eye out for Shooting People or...

Another route you can take for music clearance is finding unsigned bands without management on MySpace... I've crawled through many MySpace sites in the last project and when I found something I liked I sent them a message if I could use their music in the film for free. Most of the bands were...

Cheers agcamerasound! I'll check the website out. Itsuka

I just don't know what to say but I had to post a comment because what you've been through is very unfair and painful. I'm amazed that you've kept yourself together. Unfortunately none of us can go back in time and change our past nor change our family members. The only thing we can do is to...

Thanks a lot Zensteve! No, we appreciate finnicky-type comments. The point on the wardrobe is very interesting - we had a very small production team and we tried to cover everything but one thing we failed to organize was to arrange wardrobe in the context of the song. Definitely something to...

Cheers for that GorehoundLarry! Itsuka

We are filmmakers based in UK and we agree that casting good actors you can afford is always a big problem. In the last project we used a website called Casting Call Pro and we thought it was great. Here's the US version: http://www.us.castingcallpro.com/ If my memory is correct you can...

Many thanks for your comment John! Putting more emphasis on narrative than the band is a very interesting point. If people don't know the band they would rather watch a story than the band itself and it will eventually help promoting the song. We'll keep that in mind in our future music vids...

Thanks a lot for your comment CDCosta! Filming the video was a lot of fun though! The end result maybe slow, but the vocalist had to sing the lyrics twice as fast! It would have been a bit mean to ask the guitarist to play the solo twice as fast so we filmed his part at normal speed... Regards...

Hi guys, Please check out the music video we produced last year. Shot in HDV mostly at 60fps for a slow motion effect. The beautiful beach is Brighton, UK. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SHYgVhNKM1Q Comments (both positive/negative welcome so long as they are constructive) appreciated...

Hi there, We've just completed a feature film this April, which is currently on the festival circuit. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wMAZJCaS5t0 At the moment we are discussing if we should get a sales agent or not... It's a contemporary drama based in an English village - could someone...
