hahaha, yes hes wearing a balaclava! this movie is inspired by the toolbox murders but with a noir twist thrown in, yes its gonna be as bad as it sounds!. the movie will probably be like the rest, from 40 mins to an hour so thats cool. I'm working on getting some pictures up soon. Its your average c...

well thats not much of a post really is it. Like Epsilon said, if you have film it means you have money. I dont care what anyone says, DV when using the right filters and processed the right way looks identicle to film, There are hollywood films shot in DV that people didnt even realise. The quality...

and me......

DV is better than film! with filters and such, there is no diffrence anymore.

Thats probably a pretty good idea, I will. Hopefully get some snaps and a trailer up sometime.
Fingers crossed. Anyway this film is special because it features Death-to the music of AFI.

This is sledge films' new movie. its a psychological slasher that focuses on your average tale of an escaped lunatic with the doctor playing bounty hunter. The film does include some rather graphic violence and alot of the colour in some scenes has a prodominant tint to it, aswell as in others the c...

stop motion is a laugh

No were fine here in the Uk, we could even name a movie after a street haha.

Does anyone know If you can do reverse motion in Pinnacle 9? thanks

Me and Dan were gonna do a slap stick comedy show, really lay it on like bottom, but it never came to anything.
ahh well....one day maybe

You need to be paler, and when you shade, dont paint on lines, actually get the make up on your fingers and shade it in, as you would if you were doing a lead pencil drawing, makes much better results. see here: http://www.freewebs.com/nightmaresinc/photogallery.htm the shading just needs work, and ...

Wave pad, search for it on download.com, its free and very good.

Scan a real newspaper and photoshop it. Thats how they did it in 'The last broadcast'.
works very well. dont forget to age the paper digitally if you need to.

Wayyy to 'police acadamy', no offence but it looks like its made for 3-12 year olds. the whole spoof thing has been done before, try and make it serious with comedy tones. Like do something you know is gonna look stupid, then take it asif it were deadly serious, thats where its at. rather than writi...

I have a cd i bought a little while ago that wasent on sale for the public called 'chiller', it was a compilation of songs b hollywood composers Its amazing, go to www.directorscuts.tv for the official stuff, or go to media ventures website and you can obtain a pass that will let you download any of...

sorry its such an old post, but UFP i totally agree with you, I have adobe premier pro, but I use Pinnacle studio 9 and i love it aswell, its very simple, and like he said, I'm more of a trad' film maker, its just the cutting, pasting and fading im looking for, there are plenty of fx that are good e...

Until I got my get up, we would edit the film on camera, then stick it onto VCR and dub the music on while it was recording, primative, but having a DJ Mixer, with a good camera and expencive VCR made it a little more legit....I guess.lol.

thank you, and thanks for pointing that out, I'm telling you I have films on my mind 24/7, I keep on writing movie when i go to write move, its madness.

lolol, thank you, your spelling is fine, but hey, mines pretty bad sometimes

well its a pretty important scene, it shows that Eric has to move on to help other people and keep his position, the commish isnt too bothered, hes more worried about losing a good cop to tradgedy. its a pretty good scene when we filmed. I didnt quite get what you meant as your spelling was all mess...

Let me know what you think, its very cheesey. I basically wrote it in an english lesson, took about 10 mins, and we shot it the afternoon later

Were making a 'CSI'-esque 2 part Crime thriller drama, to break away from horror for a while, the first scene is pretty generic, cheesy 'good cop bad cop' type affair. There will be more scenes posted, but I needed this scene quickly, on screen it lasts about a minute and a half, anyways here it is....

not bad, looks very fake though, wayy too thin. Get condoms, fill them with a dark purple liquid and tie them together, add chicken skin on the joins and aswell as aslong some of the intestines, and have some thick goopy blood covering them. thats as real as it gets, and when you look at pictures of...

there is some juicy, zombie themed stuff on my make up fx site, go here http://www.freewebs.com/nightmaresinc/photogallery.htm

Toy ones work fine aslong as the colour is right, hey they even use toy guns in hollywood. The line or realism between the look of real guns and toy guns is getting so thin anyway, aslong as you have yer muzzle flash and yer sound effect, works a treat.
