    Is January going to save us?

    My pessimistic answer is, what's going to happen is that from all the elite directors and actors who are prominent in this Hollywood system, there are going to be a select few given the technology they have, and given that select few fit selling the creative image the boardroom of producers...

    is AI gonna take our jobs?

    Okay all those meticulous jobs that are in post production are gonna be replaced by AI. Given the advancements of technology, it's going to be harder to find a fit in the film industry given pre-production and post-production. Production people are gonna be the most salvable and in many ways a...

    Can tattoos be covered up when acting?

    I'm thinking about getting a tattoo to remember the love my grandmother gave me for most of my life when my parents weren't there. The issue is, is it possible for when I have to be a certain role in a movie or TV show, that I can get the tattoos covered up appropriately? The tattoo will be on...

    The aging bodies of DPs & videographers

    Sorry to hear about what happened. I've once dealt with swallowing issues for a month that fortunately haven't gotten serious. It felt like there was a bubble in my throat that I couldn't get rid of. I honestly at one point thought I was going to suffocate from my own saliva. Fortunately though...

    The aging bodies of DPs & videographers

    Maybe if you all have family needs and I'm on production with you all, you all can drop it on me for me to substitute for you.

    The aging bodies of DPs & videographers

    I wouldn't mind that. Being left to myself. As a teenager I used to want to have myself plastered as a niche film director like Robert Rodriguez meets Yashiro Ozu and sci-fi horror Anime Animator, but after a while I just focused more on getting good images and what they are. Sure of course I...

    The aging bodies of DPs & videographers

    I know this is a question I ask repeatedly, but it got me thinking with this thread. Considering you all are considering retiring at 50, and that I may get my filmmaking break at 50 or 60? Is it still too late to break into the film industry at that age?

    Ever get clients asking for stills as well as video?

    It's a bit complicated if you're unfamiliar to the word during 2010-2014. Hipsters tend to take something old that is no longer mainstream and make it uniquely there's. I think a good example of this is using vinyl records or riding old bicycles or wearing fedoras in 2010s. The example you're...

    I can't accurately grade this clip. help!

    From my experience with 3D Luts on my footage, LUTs usually tend to worsen footage unless it is color corrected first. When it is color corrected, then add LUTs, not before... Unless the look in camera was intentional with the look in post-production. I do add LUTs to my footage, but I treat it...

    I can't accurately grade this clip. help!

    Given it's daytime in bright sunlight, It's better to lean towards blue than orange and maybe magenta over green in this circumstance that is if you're stuck on increments deciding between colors. I remember from daylight picture profile that it adds more blue and sometimes green tends to be the...

    Pre-Visualization - what previs tools do you use?

    Pencil, paper, Microsoft Paint, a shotlist for my movie shots, an app I found on the Google Play Store, some storyboard template from a website I Googled. I'm an amateur filmmaker.

    It's controversial I admit, but it was a result of things like the French New Wave in cinema history.

    Need camera advice

    You can still have professional gear, but it's all about how you attract attention to yourself as the filmmaker. It's like how I photographed a Canadian Goose with its chicks at one point. A natural performance is the best performance. I bet had I gone in there with a flash I would have scared...

    Need camera advice

    You got to understand the feel people have when you're doing guerilla filmmaking with not only the camera but your presentation as a director. Usually you get more done when the talent is not distracted by the positives and negatives of your film, and that you're invisible. Most importantly, be...

    Need camera advice

    In a way, a bigger camera requires a stronger foothold on the industry to people than a smaller camera as they're maybe taken more seriously. Smaller cameras help out with more of a guerilla style of filmmaking compared to big cameras. My advice to you is ask yourself how you're going to film it...
