Helping Hands from 2004

One person for all 4 days?

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

Rusty Williams · March 20th, 2004, 04:18 PM

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

Gino Terribilini · March 21st, 2004, 01:37 AM

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

Barry Gribble · March 22nd, 2004, 06:52 PM

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

Keith Loh · March 22nd, 2004, 06:57 PM

Thanks Philip. I'm going to try this.

Matt Stahley · March 22nd, 2004, 07:02 PM

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

Danny Natovich · March 23rd, 2004, 01:25 PM

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.

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

Keith Loh · March 25th, 2004, 06:45 PM

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.

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
