The super-simple advice "No A-holes, including yourself" is probably the most useful thing here for getting through a production in one piece. ;)

@livecarsonreaction 3 года назад

I remember hearing that in one of the podcasts and loving it. Some of the best "industry advice" has less to do with super wonky technical stuff, and more to do with just being a decent human being. Films of any kind and budget are hard enough without people mucking up the vibe further and creating friction where there needn't be any.

@rollingwithmoore Год назад

As someone who is just getting into directing and more serious film making, I greatly appreciate your videos, this one especially. I've only worked as a producer and writer on a MUCH smaller scale than even indie films, but I've been curious about what tools I can use to take things to the next level, so I really appreciate you sharing these resources!

@jaguarprophett 3 года назад

You guys are fantastic. I've been following for years. Your info is so helpful especially for someone making films in South America where you don't have all the high-end technology or equipment readily available or the quality of it isn't so good. Many times, that forces one to DIY. So, thanks for continuing to be a beacon in the world of filmmaking as I will continue to follow you...tchau.

@dmattei760 3 года назад

That Scriptnotes podcast that you linked is such a useful tool. Since it came out, I've listened to it at least three times, each time taking notes. It's exactly what I needed to finish my latest script. I"m going to have to jump on pixar in a box too.

@LinusKnight 3 года назад

I am so grateful for the film riot tips/advice and the "click for click" tutorials -- I don't wanna do every video project with all these crazy effects but it would be great to have enough experience that if i do need to add something or alter something- maybe it won't look so "fake" against my footage with more practice. My first "make my friend a monster" test was bad. Monster mask i made in photoshop was jumping around changing scale size and angles... i think the motion tracking is something i need to work on (when moving points manually when they get out of line)

Q: What should you take on consideration for what counts as a different scene? Background? Theme? Feel?

@RPAudioeVisual 3 года назад

Links in the notes below

@Flarestudios 3 года назад

According Robert McKee's book, Story, a scene is unified around desire, action, conflict, and change.

@ethanhegel8576 3 года назад

If a character changes locations, that’s a new scene. Other things can count as well, like a new character entering a pre-established scene or another character leaving that scene. If the character stays in the same location but time changes it’s generally a new scene. If you jump to a different character in a different location, that’s a new scene. Say you’re going to your friend’s house. You call them on the phone and ask if you can come over and talk. They say yes. You grab your keys and get in your car. You drive down the street. You knock on their door and they invite you in. Scene 1a. You on the phone at your house. Grab the keys and walk out the door. Scene 1b. Your friend on the phone at their house. Scene 2. You lock your front door and get in the car. Scene 3. You drive down the street. Scene 4. You knock on your friend’s front door and they invite you inside.

@NelsonStJames 3 года назад

This is great info! It seems that as filmmaking becomes more democratized, you still see this move to try and lock out low budget beginning filmmakers by stamping "industry standard" on stuff even though at this point there is a LOT of industry standard equipment out there, whether Hollywood is using it or not, and some of that software is absolutely free, or very low cost.

@potatoface4698 3 года назад

6:00 worst case just fall back to the basics of coverage: Master &/or Medium > Close Up / Reverse. Also, get inserts of important or interesting props or actions in the scene and most importantly remember that the audience won't have any context besides what's in front of the camera. If you have an amazing location show it off. As DoP I stormed off a set (a small $300k indie film) once because the director insisted on the most boring camera placement pointed away from the super cinematic location. No one will get the vibe or benefit from anything outside the frame. I eventually complained enough that the director agreed to let me get the single shot and it was worth it as I got many compliments afterwards on it
