Giving/Receiving Criticism

Can you please follow the guide, ZaZa:

THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN GIVING CRITICISM AND DOING SOMETHING ELSE:
There’s no such thing as overly critical. But there is such a thing as rude.

If your criticism is peppered with “worst film ever” “the dumbest” “the most retarded” “absolutely atrocious” “completely horrible” “what the hell were you thinking dumbass?” Then you are probably coming from a less than constructive place, and not showing the proper respect for a real filmmaker, i.e. anyone that gets up of their Dunder and Miffilin and actually goes out and makes a film – we all know what an achievement that is and it warrants respect, lots of it.

Lots of hyperbole and negative adjectives, particularly absolutes like worst, and dumbest ever, are probably neither accurate nor necessary.

Oh yes...you're correct...my bad....I'll be sure to follow your guide;

"Then you are probably coming from a less than constructive place, and not showing the proper respect for a real filmmaker, i.e. anyone that gets up off their Dunder and Miffilin and actually goes out and makes a film – we all know what an achievement that is and it warrants respect, lots of it."

...now, where can I find the thread for YOUR film? :grin:



:):):):)
...and I'm still waiting for that TransAm footage!
 
Very funny. I will submit a film eventually.

Fired her up an hour or so ago and made sure she has enough tranny fluid. There is a hose that has come loose so once I mend that up we'll be on the road. I'll see about taking a camera with me. :)

No, now this thread officially sucks...because my name is in it for all eternity...or someone accidently flips the switch at DVXuser HQ and it wipes out the entire board and all thats left is a pic of Tom Marshall and Nick Lane eating deep fried twinkies and playing checkers...

*wow that was random...i'm a bit sleep deprived today...you'll have to excuse me and my nonsense...and my "...'s", because apparently I type what goes through my brain and ends up going through my fingers onto the keyboard...or something...sleep in 6 hours...yeah for 14 hour work days in the television biz...stupid high school football...

I've never been good at that. Depends on my mood and how people have responded so far. If I see too much of an opinion bending either way, I'll blow a gasket and challenge everyone. Most always here at dvx, that's never been a problem. In fact, can't think of one case I've really had to do that.

Which is a testament to everyones knowledge and honesty around here.
 
Maybe I will do something for the mini ad fest. I am considering the doc fest, though, too.

Robbie, nice new avatar.

Rogan, how did you hear about that Twinkie/checkers incident? :huh: Tom! I thought we agreed not to tell anyone!
 
My film can not be criticized and Here is why:

1. Every line was individually color corrected by a japanese color correction mainframe
2. framing was geometrically measured and calculated by Stephen Hawkins
3. Focus was measured to pinpoint accuracy by focal length androids from germany
4. All of my actors are direct descendants of George Clooney
5. Lighting was done James Cameron's first cousin on his father's side
6. Camera movements were done by Mitsubishi Auto building robots.
7. I used a RED scarlepic200A170 to shoot

George Clooney? well theres a reason to criticize right there, I thought there was a law forbidding bad actors to bread?
