Yes, I am plugging a filmmaking blog, but I'm also looking for you folks who'd love to air out your dirty laundry from working on set. SAMIC is an unabashed blog dedicated to the amazing feats and $@%#-ups of independent filmmaking. I speak from personal experience in both categories and I...

I’m posting this because I hear about bias in film festival selections and winners time and time again. It’s starting to really frustrate me, to the point where I want to start blowing whistles to get it changed. So you know, this hasn’t directly affected me yet, that I’m aware of. I’ll give...

Hey guys, I’m the director of photography on a feature shooting next year and wanted to get some pointers and maybe some experience on working partially for points after the film’s release. The producer/director and I have a pretty good relationship so I’m willing to do this on a contingent...

I don't post nearly as much as I would like to but I would really like to find as many people on here as I can who are from the IE. I had more luck than I assumed I would while looking for people around here for our last short film a few months ago, but I'm always hunting for even more. I am...

I just need to know the best way to color match practical lighting in an office to a wide source of daylight through the windows. I'm also planning to key the talent with a Kino FLo 4 bank. I need to avoid replacing the existing tubes in the large office, it being a, well.......a large office...

First of all, I don't want to denounce any filmmakers by insinuating that the director has an easy job or lesser stature than anyone else on a film. Most directors have earned their title by the end of production and I usually applaud their efforts. But as another filmmaker who usually won't...

I'm basically finished with a homemade adapter but the only real problem left is this ghosting (slight double images) towards the edge of the frame I thought at first it might be aberration, but the macro is a 2-element and I don't see anything like that shooting with just the macro. I can...
