Generally speaking is different from one producer to the next. Usually I think you'll pitch to a producer with a log line and basic query letter. Then they may ask for a treatment or synopsis along with the script. In my experience, I usually do the outline first to help steer the script...

It's the three stages of possession. Used a simple cheap setup. Canon 5D mk.ii with a standard wide lense.

Hope I'm posting this in the right place. Just created a brand new podcast where I chat to indie horror filmmakers about how they got their movie made and they share some awesome insight and give very helpful tips on how you can get your movie made. It is geared towards horror but most of the...

Not a short film but a trailer I jsut made for Halloween. Would love some feedback :) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C-cx-ZLYUaU

Looks great. Only feedback is I would not have text on screen when someone is talking. It's hard to concentrate on both.

It's not me but that was a mixture of lighting and grade. Didn't get it perfect but you live and learn.

Thanks all.

Looks good and interesting premise... not sure how it'll work but interested to find out! Love horror and love MMA so you've got my attention.

That's actually quite tough but there are ways to get better. First and foremost, read scripts of professional movies. See how they write dialogue. Keep dialogue short and snappy. Every line of dialogue should have a purpose... Even small talk. Say the dialogue out after you read it... Does...

For me, it's building tension using camera work and sound (and lighting if you have that) before the scare. Don't let the scare be too predictable, have it come from where people might not be expecting. Here is a short I made recently. There is a jump scare, not done perfectly, but you'll get...

Needs more description, especially Jay... what does he look like? what's he wearing? The city etc also need this a bit because currently, I just picture Blade Runner.

Is it just the dialogue or do you have a problem scripting a long story?

You either win or you learn (not my quote). If you've learned something from the experience, then you've not failed. The point of short films is to make mistakes, many of them and get that out of the way.

Favourite: It's between The Greatest Showman and Mother! Least: It's between Justice League and Alien Covenant.

The Looking Glass starring Nic Cage. Decent slow build setup but no real payoff. There's a good film in there somewhere. I'd give it a 5/10

My main criticism is sound... people are willing to forgive visual issues but bad sound is a no no. Obviously, this is your first film so well done on that but the first thing you want to look at in the future is recording dialogue better and getting it cleaned in post. Makes the world of a...

Thanks! That was the original plan, but had some space and lighting technical problems... lesson learnt!

Hey. New here. I'm a film lover/filmmaker from the UK with interest in many types of movies but my expertise is in horror. Look forward to getting to know you all!
