Hey all, just changed over the backend after 15 years I figured time to give it a bit of an update, its probably gonna be a bit weird for most of you and i am sure there is a few bugs to work out but it should kinda work the same as before... hopefully :)
Hello! Hopefully, someone can help here!
December 2013, I made a claim to my insurance agency (the middleman - they found the insurance quote, booked it, and pass off claims to the broker) regarding footage I permanently lost and had to reshoot.
January 2014, I hear back from the broker...
I've been having some poor luck with regards to prospective clients recently...
Some have contacted me specifically for pitches, while others I've reached out to for sending ideas along, and they've been more than happy to accept the ideas and pass them on up. After sending things along, I...
Hey everyone,
I'm debating which to invest in. Currently, I have both a 2010 iMac and a 2013 Macbook Pro w/ retina. They've served me well for converted 1080p editing of RED footage, but I'd really like to:
1.) Avoid burning out my laptop for the conversions (the 2010 iMac takes an extremely...
Hello!
I was wondering what everyone's experiences might be with the Atmos Connect H2S2 converter vs. the Blackmagic Mini Converter HDMI to SDI 4K?
I'm looking at both, and they seem like great options either route (especially given they're the same price). Anyone find ease with using one...

Hello everyone,
In a little over a week, I'll be launching an IndieGoGo campaign to raise funds for a new site I've been developing called Cinemakers.

Hey all,
I've got a film production website in the works and am launching a crowdfunding campaign soon, but wanted to first start a poll to see where interest for everyone is mainly focused. The site will be able to handle:
-Profile creation
-Cast/Crew calls
-Project management
I'm also...
Hey all! Just wanted to share this reel I finally cut together. It's a mix of 5D and RED footage, so see if you can spot which is which ;)
More than anything, I'd love feedback on how to improve my craft. I love using existing/natural lighting whenever possible, but am striving to get better...
I just had an unfortunate experience with Aspen Insurance Agency, and in hindsight, it was due to oversight on my part.
I lost about 6 days of footage shot over three months on my laptop, and had no luck with recovery. Footage had long-since been formatted on my SSDs, so no luck with REDundead...
Hey all,
I love filming live concerts, but keep running into an issue with banding on LED lights (best spot for this is on guitarist at 0:31):
Usually, I'm filming at 96fps and a 1/192 shutter, if not higher.
If you go about halfway into this video by Kevin Gansemans, all of his nighttime...
I'm currently putting together a new reel. I love shooting music videos, concerts, and narratives, but those don't seem to make quite as much income as the corporate videos and local commercials. I'd like to appeal to both realms (the hyper-creative and the fairly creative) as I really enjoy...

Really?? I get it, we're all allowed to price how we want - I just get the feeling the man is on of the following:
1.) lampooning us
2.) extremely wealthy, and does this for fun
3.) really wants to work to pay things off over a 30-year...
Hey guys,
Just wondering if there are alternatives to Basecamp out there that others are using? Kind of interested in seeing what's currently being used by most for project management (be it for an individual or small - medium-sized production), and what their pros + cons are?
As stated - used really only for video work over the past year and a half. Not sure of actuations, but know this has been used the least out of my three 5D bodies.
Asking $1,500 + shipping, but am open to offers.
Looking to get lenses, as well as upgrade to the Epic. Can't find it, but didn't RED state they'd be working with a specific company that can help with some sort of financing?
Has anyone else had just terrible trouble loading/playing videos recently on Vimeo? I have a 50mbps connection, and the videos seem to stutter, load in fragments, and and overall look worse than what's been linked to Youtube lately.
This happens both with loading from a web page and directly...
