I've done some freelance video work and it was OK, but not great. I'm a creative person and do like business, but it was so much more than that... found it to be stressful in a bad way.
"I want to direct Hollywood movies" is what motivated me as a kid, and still does. That's the thing; I've...
Just got the classic old "no audio or video streams" when importing a .mov file. Is this some kind of sick joke?
Quicktime hasn't been updated since 2016, and is no longer developed by Apple. Why do I as a Premiere user have to depend on this outdated (and potentially dangerous) software?
Is...
For the price, there's som really high quality stuff in there. Especially the layered music, with strings and such; this is tempting to mix into tracks of their own.
Say I would use this in a feature film... isn't there a pretty high chance that someone out there has already used Proscores with...
Is it OK to use others artwork, pictures and such during a movie production for inspiration? Ie, printing and pinning lots of drawings and stuff on the wall for artists to look at. I'm thinking that:
- Using for inspiration (even commercially) but no more than references for creating your own...
Doing my first low-budget feature soon, and not planning to pay someone to hold a clapperboard for me. In fact rarely even say "action", I much prefer going "5, 4, 3..." and then let the (amateur) actors have a go at it when they are ready. I only have positive experience with doing it this way...
Say I'm making an indie feature and I want it to be at least 90 mins to make sure it can participate in everything.
Is that 90 mins including credits? When I've sent in short films to festivals in the past, sometimes they do NOT count the credits into the runtime... should one be on the safe...
Just got this email:
"Supporting our community of creators is, and has always been, our top priority. As we invest in more tools to help our creators — and continue to be an ad-free service that relies on member support instead of ad revenue — we have to adjust what we offer for free (like...
I've imported my screenplay from Word into Final Draft as an unformated .txt, and everything looks great until I start changing stuff. When I select "elements", more than just the selected text moves around. FD version 9.0.2 (also, I appear to have clicked something that changed the UI to some...
Plenty of people are impressed with 2K films being upscaled with internal poor-man's bluray players. And that's not high budget offiicial 4K remasters happening to some movies. I'd assume we'll even see the digitally shot Star Wars prequels in both 4K an 8K at some point.
Conclusion: Modern...
Someone claimed there is TWICE as many female actors as males on another filmmaking forum. Couldn't find anything interesting on google, just gives results about male actors getting paid more.
The few times when I've been doing casting calls, it's been a lot easier to find women than men, but...
Interestingly, zero relevant results on google.
While some might argue that it's dumb to consider PG-ratings when writing the screenplay, this fantasy feature is something that I'm producing myself and I want to have a broad audience. The voilence is on par with Fellowship of the Ring, and I...
Thought I knew what HDR is, but apparently not..
Heard that Netflix was adding HDR support for Win 10, and I was like "what?" Read up on it and it appears that what people call HDR is simply TVs that can display +10 bit color depth. I don't have a TV so I dunno...
I thought HDR was refering...
Not a monitor, but an image cast from a projector. Looking into doing front/brack projection (instead of greenscreen) and this thought crossed my mind.
Does it, or can one shoot a screen with any shutterspeed/fps?
Thanks.
