When I see a thread title "Any idea how ... " I think, aw dayum, H44 is at it again. Hate the music (crap, I'm getting old) but that was a very good video. And informative answers too, since I'm not in the biz. I'd like to see, from behind the cameras, a video like that filmed. That would be...

Damn nice job! Well done. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

In the small handful of interviews I have done, I have always regretted interrupting the talent. Interrupted thought process can be difficult, for some people, to restart where they left off. I interrupt only when absolutely necessary. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I love Bulgaria. Have been there twice in the past few years in the Bistrita area. Love the remoteness of the mountains there. Good luck in Germany. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

That means a lot coming from one who is a master of insultery. Thank you sir.

Your best bet is to find the excuse that most accurately fits your situation and use that one. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Thank for your insight. Because of H44's insane never ending list of questions, I actually learn something from every thread he posts. Probably more than he learns! He's not a troll, I don't think ... I just think he's lazy and would rather sit and talk and ask questions about something than...

2 year? Um, I think they hit that mark 4 years ago. He will not follow your advice, only ask for more. That he also won't follow. He does politely say "Thanks, but ..." and the vicious cycle plays on

Rewrite the script so the guy finds a butter knife in the drawer, or a machette, or a bow and arrow, or a reciprocating saw or a Chinese throwing star or, I dunno, anything, and then, use your powers of directing, acting, shooting and editing to make us believe there is a loaded gun. Tell you...

Cool. I'll look into that. Thanks.

What everyone has said for 4 pages is to improvise. Use skills to make this work! You don't need a gun. You need experience. Change the script so you can get experience.

And don't you dare say, "But I don't have a baby."

I agree 100%!! I actually counted the words in that poem back when that abortion of a thread was still alive, and figured for $10 you can get a professional read on that script. Then, film PEOPLE, not f'n roads! It's about life! Not f'n roads! About choices, not .... f'n ..... roads...

I collect military vehicles and trailers. First, let me be clear, I am NOT AT ALL in a position to rent out ANYTHING! Legally, I can't. There are things I would have to do with insurance and licensing with TXDOT to make them available. I am a LONG WAY off from that point. I'm wondering if...

You don't need a realistic magazine and dummy bullet chambering scene to tell the story of checking to see if the gun is loaded. Anyway, I told you I would give you that footage for free, just to see you get off your ass and produce something, I will film that closeup for you. You don't even...

Why worry about the size of the bolts that hold the hinge on the door that leads into the closet of the bikeshed when you have no actual plans to build the bikeshed anyway? You know, you can tell the story of checking to see if the gun is loaded with a different camera angle and a simple sound...

I was just helping him plan his bikeshed. Just bogging him down with more unrealistic questions and options. Based on his post, he doesn't even know where or how the gun will be used/discovered/shown or even exist in the possible scene of his nonexistent script. Plus, I like firearms...

I have seen these in pawn shops around Texas. Used, in rough condition, but very realistic looking. Most of them will chamber a round properly. Some of them need some oil and some help. Some do jam easily. But, what color brass? I mean, would Nickle plated brass be best? Even these aluminum...

I just wanted to see what excuse he was going to come up with. The lighting won't be right What if you do it right handed and the shooter is left handed What if the gun doesn't look exactly like the prop gun What if .... Ponies. Goddam ponies always gettin in my bikeshed.

Why you work from the finest detail outward on these projects is beyond me. You are setting up road block excuses to make sure you never embark on a project. So we wont hear the excuse "Well, I couldn't get the pistol chambering scene exactly right with real looking bullets, so I decided not...
