Hi all,
For those of you not following the Secret Santa thread, there seems to be some desire to start a regularly scheduled film making "activity" of some sort.
To me, such an activity would meet the following criteria:
To this end I propose that we come up with a five good activities by this Friday. Then On Monday (each Monday for the next five weeks) one of those five activities is randomly chosen and posted as the "IndieTalk Weekly Challenge."
IT members then check out the activity and decide if they want to participate and then jump in and go do there thing and post there results in the Screening Room (Other Category)
Here are a few examples I came up with in another thread:
So what are some other good ideas? Your comments welcomed here!
Thanks

For those of you not following the Secret Santa thread, there seems to be some desire to start a regularly scheduled film making "activity" of some sort.
To me, such an activity would meet the following criteria:
- Simple enough to be doable in one weekend.
- Frequently enough that you don't have to participate in EVERY event in order to feel involved.
- Varied enough that all aspects of film making can be explored
- Be fun and engaging for seasoned pros and noobs alike
- Administratively light
To this end I propose that we come up with a five good activities by this Friday. Then On Monday (each Monday for the next five weeks) one of those five activities is randomly chosen and posted as the "IndieTalk Weekly Challenge."
IT members then check out the activity and decide if they want to participate and then jump in and go do there thing and post there results in the Screening Room (Other Category)
Here are a few examples I came up with in another thread:
- 30 seconds of the most suspenseful footage you can film and edit NO SOUND
- Film yourself performing a soliloquy\or monologue from Hamlet. Must use 3 point lighting.
- Complete the scene. (we all start with the same opening lines of dialogue..then finish it the way we think it should end)
- Edit Only. Somebody films some footage and posts it, the rest try and make a scene from it in edit.
- Audio Only. Record \ create the best fart sound effect you can
- Film someone (extra points if its you) doing stand up comedy In front of pets or farm animals. Laugh track to be provided.
So what are some other good ideas? Your comments welcomed here!
Thanks
