**POLITCS FOR a 10th of a SECOND**
Global warming doesn't have anything to do with what our temperature is for one year, it's a bit bigger than that (like glaciers melting, sea levels rising, sea temps rising, ozone (what ozone?) ) like you said, when you do know about something........... Keep to the military and not the global stuff.. Email me if you want to continue this..
Otherwise NICE JOB
How much data do you have that the world is going to end...the last 30 years of research?--Serious research??? How can you say one out of thirty or actually 5 of the last 30 years have recorded ALL-TIME LOWS for temp on the planet.

That speech was in response to the general's view (AKA THE PEOPLE WHO KNOW ABOUT WAR) and then laid out a plan, now known as "THE SURGE", to help deter and win the war. It IS working the figure I gave is "US Soldiers" deaths down 85%.
Your quotes are biased as they come from CNN, well-noted liberal news outlet. BTW, they are NOT a newspaper.

Define youth as I haven't been in college for mayny, many years now. It is what is on peoples minds as you can see from the heated debate previously. If you do not see that then maybe you should pick up a paper, listen to the radio or CARE about what's happening in your country.
Again, thank you guys for the comments, I appreciate them.

SORRY GUYS.. Just have to say one more thing.. I wont respond anymore.. PROMISE!pretopost said:
First of all, who said the world is going to END? You watch to many movies with those crazy people with the sandwhich boards that run around with drool leaking out of their mouths screeming that THE WORLD IS COMING TO AN END!! This AINT a movie buddy.. Wake up.
Your not the sharpest tool in the shed are ya? Why must you say things you know nothing about.. Makes ya look dumb.. My father has been doing research for the DEP for the past 38 years, add that to research and planet development over the last 100 years, CARS, PEOPLE, etc... it all adds up bro, but you can go back swimming in the river of denial where you and the stupid people frolic, thinking the world is a happy place and we can do no wrong.. (by the way that river of de"NILE" will dry up eventually)
Lemme take a STAB at this? Are you a REPUBLICAN? BETCHA U ARE.. The two go hand in hand.. Republican...Like wars...Money makes the world go round...Protecting the Earth is for pussys...Money will make it better.. Oh, only 5 people died this week in IRAQ, were WINNING!! Winning what? The award for the least people killed this week.. Go look up the word PROGRESS in the dictionary..
And I take my comments back about your work... It's played out, non original, and lacks any creative energy.. GRRRR..

kudos for shooting it, first, because the main thing is just shooting stuff no matter how it comes out.
i don't know what it's for or if you're trying to sell it or whatever, but for me (i understand you were trying to keep certain things OUT of shots) there just weren't enough wide angles. it felt claustrophobic and i lost interest. wide shots to me are very cinematic, and when you keep the audience slammed into the subject, after a while it gets old, and worse, boring.
all of that said, i understand you only had two hours. but then again, you posted it and are looking for comments. so good job, but try to work wide shots into the next one, no matter how hard it might be.

Looks good, I agree with it feeling a bit claustrophobic, but thats just me!
And to everyone else concerning politics, there are a a lot of other places where we could be arguing about politics, none of which contain a description stating "The Online Community for Filmmaking"! We argue over beliefs day in and day out and rarely ever get somewhere. Progress is made by learning from your mistakes and rarely from going by a hunch. Do I think this war is useless, maybe, maybe not. But I am in no place to give my opinion on it. Whether your liberal or conservative, grow up.

again, the video was great. enjoyed watching it again, and I thought it was especially effective considering the context and the audience. good job again.
as for the politics, i think it's actually natural for people to be sharing their beef in a film making forum. there have been more then a few sets that i've worked on where there is at least one or two "POLITICAL EXPERTS" who need to let the world know their opinion. (for some reason it's always the audio guys..??? hehehe)

Its just most arguments tend to escalate a bit too much.

Ok, I do apologize for the comment on the work, that was totally uncalled for, and yes, IMMATURE! Ad hominem attack maybe on the work, not the other comments.. I would have said nothing more in the group if he responded in the manner I requested (email/PM).
This started as a conversation about his work, and, well one thing led to another.. I just cant stand when people are so confident on something they know nothing about. My hope is, that someone will take something from it..
YES this is a topic about HVX footage, but it's also a talk about content, and I think one leads into the other. No one is forced to read anything..

Filmmaking is creative politics..
Why are you not in a place to give your opinion? It's America.. That's what we're good at!
No hunch here with global warming.. We're screwing this place up, and we'll pay.. I've seen the evidence.. You know what you see on TV.

Aright, well just to point out, I am liberal and I am anti-war, and I do believe in global warming. I suppose you could call me borderline-hippie if you wanted to. Lets just keep it civilized and try not to type in caps...
Maybe there should be a "Civilized Debate" section on the forum.

hahaha, you might be right about the Debate section.. But I also think it's good that people talk about things when they come up..
