Real Player....Don't remind me of that shity player.

Maybe there was a picture of the bullet in front of the camcorder in post-preduction. Like they took a picture of a bullet that had a green background, and put it in post. Thats what I would do because I don't know s*** about doing CGI.

Script writing software? A low budget? I use www.scriptbuddy.com. Just sign up for free, and take a few days to learn how to use it. It works fine for me. Did I mention its free?

You can edit sounds to be 5.1 in Adobe Premiere Pro. You can also pick what speaker you want the sound to be heard at.(Back left, back right, top right, ect...)

Thanks Grant.

Please, does anybody got any sounds of bullets like swishing by. Like swoosh. Bullet flies past acter. Hollywood uses alot of these sounds, alot in War movies, which you guys probley seen. Anybody got a sound like that?

Yes, sometimes I hate eBay for expensive items. I'll probley buy it at Best Buy for Christmas or around then.

They got some really good deals for the Sony DCR-TRV22 on eBay. It has the same and better features than the DCR-TRV18.

I don't really like any other camcorder brand but Sony.

Ya. I would want a really better one, but hay, this will get the job done. It has a mic input for better sound. Not a big deal but better audio is better audio.

Anybody got it? Its Mini DV Format.(:D) Thats good. It also says it's 1/4" Advanced HAD CCD with 680K total pixels, so does that means it films in real 16x9 mode? I'll probley look at the camcorder before I buy it anyway. It only $599.99. I already got more than half of that from my birthday to...

I would take a picture of the fuzzy edges with a green inside and just use the transparentcey settings in Premiere. So the video is inside and you have a really oh-so-cheesy flashback effect.

A little off the topic, but you guys talking about Robert Rodriguez and Quentin Tarantino gets me thinking about "From Dusk Till Dawn." I love that movie. George Clooney and Quentin Tarantino are awsome in that movie. How about you guys, you like it?

I went to B&H Photo Video Pro Audio Home Page and looked at the lightstands. I was woundering if you can put any kind of a light a the lightstand. Can you guys tell me which cheap one to get?(Light sourse and lightstand). Thanks.

Thanks guys.

I looked at some internet sites, and I saw foam filler in a can. Is this good enough for fake organs? Is it safe to use for this matter? I also saw a picture where it was painted red, it looked awsome! So I need some answers.

I was woundering if anybody has stock footage of a nuclear explosion. Like a missle hits the ground and makes a huge explosion. Thnaks.

I'll probley check The Home Depot one day. Thanks guys.

Where can I get expanding foam filler and aquarium tubeing?

I will need some fake organs for when I cut a person in half in my future movie(which will probley not be for like a year or more). How would I make the fake organs? I don't want to get real organs from a animal. Thats just *ucking gross! Any ideas?

Similarity:o(Whats-that)

Thanks.

All I need to know is if they become the same as the background.

In my next movie, I'm cutting someone in half.(Just like the crackhead in Final Destination 2)In fact, I'm using the same tecnic they used. First I put up a green background. Then I make a dummy from the feet, down. Then the actors legs are gonna be green.Then I get someone to hold a green stick att...
