Thanks for the reply, CV--that's even more than I'd heard of previously. Movie Maker published a list as well, which turned me on to film method. But my time ain't what it used to be (gone are the college days filled with time to study, party and video game), which is why I'm looking for...

Hello, all. I recently discovered a filmmaking podcast (film-method.com) which features round-table discussions focused on different aspects of the nuts-and-bolts of making indie films. Very informative, and it got me to wondering about other podcasts out there that people may be benefiting...

Perfect--thanks Alcove. Next time you're in LA I owe you a drink for all the free consultation work!

Quick question, gentleman. My editor needs to break down his bay and we don't have a true sound designer on board yet. (And the studio won't be prepping our audio files for us either.) How should the editor output the sound that's most convenient for the the sound designer to prep for the ADR...

Thanks for the reply, Knightly. The guy I'm considering doing the color is using Apple Color and sent me a video for how he prefers his projects to be prepped. Another colorist approached me with the prospect of using magic bullet (which I am unfamiliar with) but the first guy's work is more...

First of all, I'm thankful that this forum is populated by so many knowledgeable people in the particulars of filmmaking. I'm not a newbie, yet I've learned so much from reading through the other threads. For my past projects I've been able use my versatile editor as a one-stop post-production...

Blade--thanks for the reply and for the article link. Both were very helpful (and points to me for almost understanding all of it the very first read!) You ADR'd an entire film? I would definitely expect you to have it down after that experience. Seriously, thanks to all. Heading into the...

Thanks for the info, guys. I'm planning to meet with the studio this coming week and take it from there. I will definitely keep you all posted as any other questions arise. Thanks again!

Thanks Yowzers! (Had to go all the way back to Inspector Gadget on that one...) Thanks for the seriously insider look, ALCOVE. One hour per linear minute is far more than I thought necessary, so I'm very glad I asked. We shot the end of October, so I do have to expect that it'll take them...

Hi, all I've done a handful of short projects in the past, but I've never had occasion to be concerned with ADR before. Shooting an outdoor location next to Beverly Glen near Bel Air has changed that. Picture is nearly locked, so I'm close to addressing sound and I'm finding that I have a lot...

I considered poking around Myspace for artists who controlled their own rights for a possible "use for publicity" agreement. But I'm not loving the idea of explaining to an accounting firm that their promo video needs a shout-out to a musical act... So guess I will poke around the royalty free...

Thanks for the welcome, and for the answer. I thought that was the case, but I'd hoped I was mistaken. So many corporate videos I've seen have such awful music, and now I'm getting clearer as to why. Thanks again!

Hello, all. I'm doing an industrial / promo video for a small business and they want to add intro / outro music. Does anyone know the legalities around using music for such a purpose? Thanks!
