I actually was going to make analogy to Pollock in my paragraph but decided not to go there but since you did... Then here we go.

In 1800s photography got invented. That forces the painters - who...

EVERYTHING exits on the level of the audience AND the lever of the maker. The audience can be intelligent about the work or dumb as doorbell. Lack of education on part of the audience is not really...

Can you define "Nonsensical and "artsy""? Why you assume that narrative is the apex of human communication? (As if dealing with less story-driven parts of our lives or dealing with ideas that can't...

I've done some shooting using hideen cameras for a documentary about puppy factories (mills):

(much of the cinematography is not mine - so it's not the kind of...

I've done way too many films where paper dreams were juts that - nothing but dust. At the same time because i've done so many films we are trying to do thing the right way and ask ourselves the...

Correct me if i'm wrong but isn't the "standard" to repay the investment and then split the profits?

So in our scenario with film costing $125k ($50k from the company and $75k from investors) if...

I'm also leaning towards the investor route as i don't want to be held responsible for paying back $75k if shi* hits the fan and nothing comes out of it.

Michael, how do you structure the deal?...

We are in a lucky position where we have 3 people who expressed the interest in investing in the film having seen the 25min cut. As it stands the film is being made as the non-profit production and...

I'm co-producing a doc about perseverance of human spirit in context of 3 artist who have experienced a dramatic life change that forced them to re-think their path in life (and art). It's an artsy...

I highly suspects that you didn't ACTUALLY read those books and simply relay on crappy film version to make your judgement. This is not about stories but rather how one can explore issues from a...

I wish your list included propositions for literature too.

I find that books have explored concepts that get explored in films only sporadically. Because it's so "easier" to write (than do all the...

Bro, this is a public forum. Lots of people are reading it - some are pros who can see through BS, some are hobbyist researching info about their next purchase. As such many don't know what to look...

Your definition of the word "story" is so broad it borderlines on being meaningless. It's fine, but for me i need more strict definitions as this is the craft i do for living. Because a film can be a...

You are getting angry over someone insulting a piece of metal...




I don't know where your math comes from. In open face tungsten light the lighting source - the bulb - is like 1x1 inch, so...

Beside liability it could be also the tax thing - as employer they have to pay your share of taxes (on top of the 1/3 that will be taken away from your salary) - in NYC it's around 25% extra. So for...

Every factory makes excellent LEDs and junk LEDs. The reason why you see such a huge disparity in LED prices on seemingly exactly looking units is because one unit maker opts for cheaper LEDs (and...

Why 4 cameras?!?

Technically what you would be signing is not a legal document because most likely you are classified as employee NOT independent contractor so as you are covered by workers comp. As independent...

Once again, many, many,many,many times the films do not start with the story. Story is an after though. You can presume that Kubrick had this Barry Lyndon story in his mind and THEN chose the images...

Kubrick's "Barry Lyndon" (through image you understand stiffens and social rigidness of the society)
Truffaut's "Jules and Jim" (through dynamic camera moves and unique editing you get the energy...

You are limiting ourself with this concept that films are about stories. In my book everyone who talks like that is a neophyte in their understanding of the medium. Story is one of many, many aspects...

With this "cinematography is not meant to be notices" mantra you guys are walking a very specific - and narrow - path - but it's one of many paths. The same is true of the edit or direction. Yes,...

1. Be a better judge of character - if you have a bad feeling get a contract before throwing ideas into the air. There is a very fine line between making producer excited to work with you and...

On one of my knockoffs the lens cracked from heat (on 300w light?????), another light had its yoke broken and yet on third one the tightening knob literally turned to dust. Headless to say that i let...
