Have you ever directed a movie, Cred Forums?

Yeah and your mom had the lead role

Interesting, that's what I said to your daughter, when she asked for a role in my next porn movie.

I did some stuff for my local PBS station

Please, this:

Well, they were for "express film contest". We have a few around here.

They give you a theme and you have to write, shoot, edit a short film in 48 hours or a week (depends on the contest).

The thing I hate the most is working with actors, I dont know how to talk to them well... The good thing about these contest is a lot of actors/actresses show up the first day so you get their number and they are willing to do anything so its cool.

well I kidnapped your ex-wife and she laughed at this joke

Are these actors/actresses paid? Is it hard to find people willing to work for free?

PBS is nice. Everyone wants to prop you up and help you progress. I went from operating cameras, to the sound board, to graphics, up until they gave me the chance to be the director for a donation drive. From there, I did a few other things.

Just note you didn't get paid jack shit at PBS, unless you're Moyers.

Directed one animated short that got good reception, plus a bunch of smaller animated short and a bit of live action.

so your dick and what else?

I’ve directed 100s of adult movies.

For these contests nobody is paid. And that's why most of the actors/actresses that go are not very good (they're still learning or are amateurs).

But I worked as a lighting/camera assistant on an indie film and a local tv series (still recording this) and they got the money as financial help by the goverment.
You should look at this stuff, every year the goverment and some private organizations are require to give money to audiovisual activities, not many know that or just pass because its a lot of paperwork and every time they give it to the same hacks.

i made an instructional video about fire safety for kids once.

just another great Cred Forums thread

Who is this gassy lassy?

I did a slasher for a film fest once. Was pretty alright. I got lucky and a guy I knew on a farm let us do so much shit there and use pig guts and everything. Worst part was the actors easily. The female lead was a cunt who refused to get anything on her, so I got frustrated and just dumped a bucket of pig's blood on her. The others actors were okay for the most part.

serves your right for throwing unsanitary pig blood and guts on your crew, tarantino

Thank you. It means a lot to me

Animation seems pretty hard, mate. Is it worth it?

Despite of the affordable prices nowadays (cameras, lenses, equipment...), it is still hard for those who want to film amateur projects. I've seen wonders filmed with a simple Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera, but if you don't have acceptable actors...

Thanks for your thoughts, btw!

I've directed a short film. A real film with a script and quality actors. Not some meme film fest bs.

Ask me anything

Will I get dubs with this post?

>Ask me anything
Name of the short film?

Ur mom gay lol

Advices? Workflow? What's your distribution method?

The Cuckening

Most important advice is to get a sound tech. Use a boom or lavalier. Sound is the hardest thing to get right and easiest thing to fuck up.

Story board so you know what you need to capture ahead of time. Go quickly, do enough takes so your actors are warm but not exhausted.

Be open to input. The script is king but be adaptable.

Yep, i've filming in a lot of short films/documentaries as a camera operator with a Sony A7s and the results are astounding if you know the limits.

The indie feature was shot with a Blackmagic URSA Mini 4K and the series is being shot with a Sony A6500 and a Zhiyun Crane v2 stabilizator.

Nowadays everybody can make something look good with a DSLR and some stabilization. What gives away the project as amateur is the sound (very overlooked when people go into indie filmmaking) and the acting.

How gay are you really though?

Can't find any of these on IMDB. Must be a really shitty short film.

B T F O

I wrote and codirected a feature film comedy with a couple of semi famous people and a million dollar budget. No one ever saw it and I never made any money. It’s a pretty shot movie going back and watching it again

I've been doing small projects since 12, I have a huge archive which I do not plan on releasing because it's obviously embarrassing. I do have some videos on YouTube that have like 2k views. Me and my friends get drunk/high and just come up with ideas, we do it for ourselves not to get big or anything.

I used to draw pictures of my dick.
