no budget movie making site
I've just finished principal photography on a micro-budget feature length movie. I've posted the entire gamut of behind the scene photos link off our front page. I've also got my cameraside checklist and microbudget howto's up there for your reading pleasure...production diaries (they went woefully out of date as our schedule slid), some clips, cast and crew photos...lots of fun stuff.
This was a learning project, I took this on to learn to make movies, I feel that I have succeeded in that goal. Our photographer is new to his craft as well, so the shots improve temporaly, his next big step is turning off auto-focus :) thanks for your time. |
oh, yeah...let me know what you think off the stuff I've written there. I've gotten absolutely no feedback. contact me either here or through the contact link on my site.

Cole,
I just watch the teaser for your movie. Looks very nice. I haven't had a chance to read over your production diaries. But I am intrested in evetually doing my own movie and will definitely be back to read them to get some pointers. |

Looks good especially for microbudget. I love your french flag taped to the camera! I would like to see a trailer soon as the teaser looks good. What mic is lurking under that wind cover?
Edit: Just saw that it was an ATR55, how is that mic standing up for film as it is in the lower end of the price range but looks interesting for projects/films like this. |

I have a quick preview up of where I'm going with my Turnkey movie making pages:
http://www.yafiunderground.com/Turnkey/tkoutline.txt My goal is 1 paragraph per topic and pictures to illustrate the point, one point at a time. No overwhelming amounts of info to sift through, just useful "do this" kind of information that I couldn't find online when I was learning this stuff...I had to wade through tons of technical/artistic theory crap to get to "point a light here, point the camera here". I hope to put up the most complete and immediately useful tutorial on the web for complete beginners who just want to make a movie by themselves without having to wade through block diagrams of compression algorithms and optical algebra to be able to set their friend in front of the camera and have them deliver some lines. Let me know what you think if you will, I'd love to have feedback from whomever chooses to give it. I take both positive and negative in stride, so fire away. |
