Throwing my hat in the ring. A bit late in the game, but I'm pretty sure I can still make it. Look forward to seeing all the films. Good luck all. *Edit...whipped some posters together. Couldn't decide on a design so I made three.

a Big thanks to everyone here at dvxuser. I do love making these shorts, and seeing all the great films that others put out...then seeing my own just crystallized something in my head: I truly appreciate that someone with my level of experience (ie: none) can actually make something, and have...

Alright, I'll throw my hat in the ring for this one... I probably won't have any BTS as I'll be too busy working on it so let me just say good luck everyone, looking forward to all the entries!

My apologies if this is a simple question, but here goes... I've read suggestions here that seem to imply that when you record to both channels on the DVX you can set the gain on one channel a little lower than the other to give you a bit of a safety net in case of clipping. My question is...I...

Hello all, I'm hoping someone here can help me. I've recently bought a macbook pro and premiere pro CS3, but I'm having a weird problem when I capture footage. It ends up looking like this: The last time I had this problem it was due to a timecode break; that's not the case this time. I...

Most halloween or costume/makeup places often have little flyers by the cash register (around here anyway) with tips and tricks for makeup and fx. Might be worth checking out.

So this would be round two for me, since my original idea fell through. Hopefully, second time's a charm :) I wrote this idea at work today, during lunch, and um...probably during some time I should have been 'really' working. I'm fairly confident these actors won't bail on me, and I'm...

Coming to town, October 2006...

Hello all, I shot some footage in 24PA, on a new DVX100b. (I'm using the default F6 scene file which is set for 24PA) I'm working in a 23.976 frames/second Timebase in Adobe Premiere Pro 1.5, according to the Project settings, and indeed this is what I chose when I created the project. From...

Hello all, I'm a huge noob so please bear with me. After reading tons of these posts, I am following many recommendations for the following equipment: -MK012A "Bello Nero" Condenser Microphone with Hypercardioid Capsule -Rycote BBG Windshield for 20mm -Rycote Windjammer for BBG -haven't...
