Where did Corrado go?

6. I don't feel keen on the leadership here at all. Lot's of infighting and petty squabbles.

The family atmosphere comes from the fact we act like a family and families argue fuss and fight but good one continue to love one another. Corrado was one of the best threads we had and I think everyone can learn a lesson from this.

In short, Zak Forsman had one of the best ideas I had ever heard: the making of the prominent feature threads stickies.

Remember this thing originally revolved around the Corrado sticky situation.

What you guys should've done is this:

Make Corrado, Prodigi, Rice, and Forsman's thread stickies. These are the "learn from the people that have actually done it" sections. They deserved prominence. They deserved to be separated from all the other stuff. Give the thread holders limited mod ability in their own threads to be able to police them from heckling in the form of "constructive criticism".

I would like this myself. I'm about to start scripting my third feature and would love to break things down like this. I think it could be deserving of a sticky thread but I'm definitely planning on it being bigger than the last two and would certainly like to try out for a thread once pre-production starts. It would be like a micro-budget how-to thread. Like your thread showed how to do it on a $300,000 budget mine would show how to do it for a lot less.

No offense at all to Adam, but as far as an intellectual property I wonder how far Corrado's publicity got with DVXuser's help...

But one could also question the new readers Corrado may have bought in by being mentioned in film mags that may have readers who never heard of us.

Adam - with all due respect, one completed, unreleased feature does not a 'master' make.

I suppose I could call myself a 'master' of music/audio recording and mixing, but I'm really reluctant to do so. And I've been making a very good living at it for many, many award-winning years.

Your contributions here at DVXUser have been beyond measure, but if I may be forgiven for saying so, I feel you sometimes would be better served by checking just a bit larger measure of your ego at the door. As one example, you used the phrase "this is wisdom" just a few too many times for my taste.

I have to say, pride does cometh before the fall. No one here is a master unless Speilberg is hiding out here and not saying anything. The best people never let their success go to their heads.

I'm actually cool with Jason's response on the sig. Fair is fair.

Also Jason, I want to emphasize the buzz factor of DVX. It really is huge. Again, can't say it's a money maker, but it is huge.

Hey, Lego my Ego! :Drogar-Love(DBG):

Spielberg a master? Please. I think you meant Ridley Scott or Luc Besson...:beer:
 
It would be nice if you and the mods patched things up. Recently all my favorite threads keep getting closed.

I'm telling you, after the election everyone will lighten up. (Either that or everyone will be madder).

Looks pretty damn good, above the standard straight to DVD fair. Better than expected I'd say. It looks really rough too. I'm sure it's a great film.
 
That's a cool trailer, but boy are the guns mixed hot... I adjusted volume for the voices and when I got to the double machine gun guy I nearly blew my speakers. Fair warning for the rest of you guys.

You're right - I'm making the change asap. Thanks for the feedback, man!
 
For the sake of organization, let's put all corrado related discussion over in the corrado II thread in the user films section...

Later,
Jason
