Hey guys,
We're right in the Balt/Wash corridornear Columbia. We do live drama and weddings for now (on the side, of course), but my high school age son has had filming-on-the-brain since he was about 8 and spends most of his time filming/editing/special effects/etc. I'd love to get him some experience with some pros. We would love to get together with others in the area, and could possibly help with the DC project in May.

Cheers,
Tony

Videonics MXProDV Switcher - anyone know where I can rent one of these ? I'm in the Boston area but will pay to have one shipped from elsewhere.
Thanks

I just got Outpost up on another really cool site. Check it:

http://www.undergroundfilm.org/films/detail.tcl?wid=1012267

nevermind.. no replies from the few vegas people i know on here, so i just reformatted my win2k box and all is well.

This position has been filled.

I'm always looking for some work, so if you have any around the Bay Area, let me know. I use an XL1s (with MA-100 and CH-910) and am loving every minute of it. I also have access to a glidecam crane, a boom mic and a simple lighting kit. Anyway, let me know. Thanks!

....hi gino, are you italian?

a quarter. my grandpa was the first one over to the states. And to be more specific, i'm swiss italian. my name comes from a little village in the alps called Virgiletto. i do not speak italian (yet...) but my father does fluently. hea learned in Bergamo. I've been over to the homeland a few times... its so great. Hoping to move there one day. revolutionize the Italian film industry...

i'm planning on going again this summer with my older brother and my father unless i get into NYU. I have a close friend who lives in Firenze who will be showing us around.

-Gino

p.s. if you know any pretty 18-20 year old italian girls, let me know.

I am a high school student who is pretty skilled with videography and such things, I have had a GL2 for a few months. I am interested in doing any volunteer work or even helping a pro videographer/filmmaker in my area. If you know of anything let me know! Thanks!

Hey just wondering if anybody here's from Minnesota (St. Paul area) and wanted to be a extra in a music video this spring. The video is going on the credits of my next short film if your interested let me know.

Ken, I emailed you from your web site. When is the next meeting at Glen Burnie area?

im in college park, graduating in may, moving out to good old cali late summer. ill be here till then if anyone needs some help.

I know every filmmaker's dream is to have a screenplay handed to him/her, but i thought i'd ask in case there was anybody who had one sitting around. Does anybody have a short film screenplay they would like to see put into production. I am a student and desperately need work to add to my portfolio. I'm also a filmmaker with no film to make and its killing me slowly... Really, though, any short film ideas or screenplays would help a lot. Thanks!

-Gino Terribilini

What genre? What scope?

Anything low-budget. My specialty is drama with great cinematography and an artsy undertone. I'm willing to take on anything, though. I'd like to try a comedy or horror/ psychological thriller, but, at this point, anything will do.

Gino,

Go to www.inktip.com and search the open forum for short screenplays. One of mine was picked up by a director in London, so you never know what you will find.

Good luck

Richard

No, that didn't work - still looking!

Hey guys, "The Siberian Farce" is now online. Chalk full of models, missiles, props and gadgets. Here is the thread posted by my partner which started it all:

Viewing instructions included.

http://www.dvinfo.net/conf/showthread.php?s=&threadid=22413

Richard,

Thanks a lot! I will keep an eye out for anything that seems interesting. However, if anybody just has one sitting around, let me know as well.

Gino Terribilini

Gino,

There's over a hundred scripts listed there right now, didn't you find ANYTHING that was of interest to you?

Sorry for the longshot post but I know there are a few New Zealanders here with Canon cameras and I'm looking to hire one if I can. I have a seminar shoot this coming weekend and rather than get a Sony VX2000 PD150 etc (That's all everyone seems to have) I'd like to get an XM2 or Xl1s. The budget for this is very small but if anyone would be able to hire or loan their cam for a day, or even come shoot if you wanted to keep it under scrutiny could you email me. Email address in my profile.

If you live a little out of Auckland that's ok, I can come pick it up.


Cheers
Aaron

I'm passing this along on behalf of George, please contact him directly if interested, I have no further info myself. I can tell you however that his work is top notch and he's a great guy as well!

I'm getting married on July 11th of this year and would love to have someone who has experience shooting and/or owns an HD1/HD10 to shoot my wedding for me.

It's a Sunday evening wedding at an outdoor park pavillion and I'd like to capture the entire ceremony and reception, roughly 4 hours or so.

I own an HD1 that could be used and would love to get footage from more than one angle with two cameras. If an owner knows of someone who can operate the other camera it would be great.

I'd also be willing to rent an HD10 and lighting for the day if anyone who has experience with the camera is willing to travel.

It would be a payed job, but I would imagine not to 'standards' for pay, trying to keep the wedding budget down. I would just need the raw footage and I can edit it and put it out to D-VHS and DVD.

If anyone is interested or can refer someone please contact me at tlambert@cinci.rr.com. We can talk travel, pay, expectations etc.

Thanks.

Troy

I can't help you on the shoot as you are in Ohio and I am in Georgia but I just wanted to say congratulations and I know what you are going through. I am getting married myself on May 29th and own 2 HD-10s and I'm trying to find/train a operator for the cameras during the ceremony. Good luck.

Mark Jervis

Hi Mark and Troy,

Congratulations to both of you on getting married.

Mark I live in Atlanta and I may be able to help you. Please email me: ed@highlydef.com

I have been shooting 16mm film and Betacam since 1982.
I made the switch last year to DV.

My business partner Ben and I are doing pre-production on a biography drama for a rap performer here in Atlanta using the JVC HD 10. We will be buying one shortly and would like to try an HD10 for ourselves before committing the cash.

Any way, back to the wedding: I have a Steady tracker and tripod/ Miller head, Lowell Kit. I would be happy to help you if I can.

Best Regards,

Ed Hill

I can shoot, but only if travel and the hotel is covered. Of course, that may be out of the budget. But if I can help out, let me know. And, of course, congrats!

Hey, Gino...

Actually, I wrote a short last year that was just a lark; kind of a rip on Valentine's Day shorts that were making the rounds.

Anyway, it's real low-budget to shoot, but I have no intentions of making it myself or otherwise using it.

It's called "Somewhere South Of Heaven" and if you want it, I'll give it to you. Just credit me as writer on any production.

Let me know if you're interested and I'll send it to you. All I ask is that you let me know if you plan on using it or not, and maybe a copy of the finished product.

-Rusty-

Some of you know I've been concentrating more on writing now. This spring I was a winner of a Canada-wide feature screenplay contest and am just finishing the workshopping phase and hopefully getting into the networking phase.

I thought I'd let loose one of my tools that I used which helped me in the development of my script. It's a Word template that is my substitute for going out and buying Final Draft or Movie Magic.

http://www.keithloh.com/writing/filmscript/templates.html

How to install it and use it is explained on that page.

My writing is covered in another page linked to from that page.

Bang-up job, Keith!

I recently graduated out of College Park, and I've been working on some short no-budget type stuff since then. I tend to agree that this is not the Hollywood of the East, and it is very hard to find actors. However, it seems there is no lack of skilled technicians, writers, and people who just love to make film.

Hope I get the oppurtunity to meet some of you in the future...

One person for all 4 days?

Doesn't that cut into the running around the show and playing with stuff time?

Geez, there was a time when people would actually PAY me for screenplays... Now I can't GIVE one away! :-)

Hey, Rusty... sorry for the delay. I've been working on a project, but that's in another thread.

Anyway, i'd love to check out the screenplay.

You can email me at Gino@motuspictures.com and i'll let you know what i think and whether or not i plan to use it.

Thanks!

I've always wanted to make a Star Trek fan film. Not the usual type, but darker, better written and acted than the series. More like DS9 type stuff.

Oh well, had to get that off my chest,grin.

The Style for Following Paragraph setting controls the style assigned to a new paragraph when you press ENTER. For example, in Keith's template, the CHARACTER style identifies the speaker. It makes sense to set the Style for Following Paragraph to the DIALOGUE style because most of the time the lines of dialogue come under the character name. The SLUGLINE style would have ACTION as the following style.

To see the Style for Following Paragraph setting (I'm using Word in Office XP.), choose Styles and Formatting from the Format menu. In the list of styles that appears, put the mouse over the style you want to modify, click the down arrow and choose Modify.

Good job on the template, Keith, and thank you for sharing.

Mike, do you have a rate sheet for various quantities, boxes, lables?

If so, cna you mail it to me?

Thanks

I am in Washington DC and I'm creating some short films and music videos. I write and direct, and can do all the rest of it but I strongly prefer working with others for lights, sound, even camera work. Anyone want to jump in?

I am shooting a short this coming Saturday, March 27 from 8-5 or so.

I am also putting together a 48 Hour Film Fest team for May 7-9.

I have a Canon Xl1 + all the light/sound/post equipment we need. It's all for fun right now... no salaries. Let me know if you are interested.

Also, if you are a filmmaker and just want to get together to talk shop and watch demos that's great too.

Thanks.

Barry

Thanks Philip. I'm going to try this.

Mike I too would be interested in prices for DVD-R dupes. Hopefully in small runs. Thanks.

Not really.

Half of the time is at the stand and the other half you are free
to wonder around the show...with the rig.

Danny Natovich.

I am looking for a Dv shooter that can help me out with a one day shoot in Plainview NY near Hicksville (no joke) on what I believe is Long Island?

The shoot will consist of an interview, a couple of recreations, and recording of voice over narration.

There is no pay for this, but you'd be helping me out in a big way!! I could perhaps be a part some exchange of services.

The ideal candidate must know what they are doing, have access to a car and DV camera with sound gear (either a lavaliere or shotgun mic)

Interested persons can send me an email at michaelds@(remove)digitalcrossing.ca

Thanks

Philip, based upon your suggestions, I've improved the template .dot so that it does do the following paragraph thing. Thanks again for suggesting that.

http://www.keithloh.com/writing/filmscript/templates.html

Not to hijack the thread or anything but if you need someone in the midwest (WI) for CD/DVD duplication and authoring (short run under 50 discs) let me know. I don't screw people like most places do that do short runs. Normally around $3-$4 a disc (DVD) depending on printing and cases. http://www.jcmediaservices.com or you can e-mail me direct at Jason@jcmediaservices.com

Hi

I am shooting a school play on April 1, 2004 in Bellevue Wa. (Near Seattle)
I will be shooting with my XL-1 and am looking for a second camera and operator. Example, GL1, GL2, pd-150, VX200. or anything comparable.
Tripod too. It will only be 2-3 hours in the Evening. All that I can offer
is $100. So if you are available please let me know ASAP or if you are not I
would still like to rent your camera.

please email me at
sdburbank@crewnet.com

Thanks
Scott

Since its a free bee could you tell us more about the project--and yes you will be on Long Island--the world's largest parking lot.
