It was a solid piece of work that illuminated a few things for me, but there was very little opportunity for practical application while reading the book. I felt like I wanted to practice a lot of the concepts from the book, and I did, but not along side the book. It was more of a master...

These are all awesome ideas; keep them coming. Some background... The interrogation is between cops; it's an internal affairs investigation into various charges leveled against two "unorthodox" cops... the forgotten psied

1. anything flashy and superfluous; shaky cam, dutch angles (don't ask me why), unnecessary crane shots, overbearing steadicam shots, etc.- just watch CSI, CSi:Miami, and MTV and you'll see every thing people are aspiring to! 2. Not really and then the ones that work require so much work that...

I completely and wholeheartedly disagree with the xl2 comments. I love the camera, and have used it on short films and movies, would use it again and again, but I don't think anyone should tout it as the end all be all... that's just irresponsible! The HVX200 is a great camera that gives great...

Aren't we filmmakers? Isn't directing a very important part of the process... God forbid that everyone knows everything there is to know about being creative... Look, revitalize this Forum or pay the price of arrogance. Here is a starter- I am trying to work out how to shoot an authentic...

Hey, Checkit- I want to talk to someone about the book by Michael Tierno. Poetics for Screenwriters is a peice of work that deserves discussion... If you don't know what it is then do a google search or pick it up directly from amazon.com. Kudos to filmmakerone's podcast- listen to it if...

Hey, are there any Vegas 8 users who can offer some assistance or someone to bounce Ideas off of...

I hate to be a jerk, but I think that is bad advice... Get what you can afford in order to learn, move up later when you get a chance. Was waiting out for an HVX for my first camera and came upon a slightly used (about 50 hours) DVX100a for about $1500, should I have let it pass... Read Rebel...

that is entirely up to you- As far as sound goes, I would search the forum for Uncle Bob. He has some great advice. I do it the wrong way, I use an mbox and a laptop... I am familiar with protools and can do edits right there on the spot, but that's me! Also, B&H photo has inexpensive kits...

samurai/westerns- they are the same thing and all great movies fall into this selah-

i liked it- super8 looks great

I don't know if you are still checking this thread but: Selah- Light is essential, or more to the point, the manipulation of light, is essential to the look of your film. If your film is a car, then light is the key, ignition, alternator, and distributor cap! Learning about how light works...

Hey, OK, that's enough, on to the hard stuff- What is so cliche about stylism in editing and shooting. If a filmmaker imitates The Matrix when he or she starts out isn't that kind of like musicians emulating their favorite musician until they acquire their own voice. I ask because I am a...

I am... New here and just checking things out
