I use both. I only have the trial version of VisionLab Studio. You're talking about the FXHOME program,right?

Yeah the site is a bit intensive with the streaming video. I should probably take that down.

Fair enough.
We were struggling with a lot of parts from the script on the day of shooting, because the final script we wrote still wasn't that coherent. (it was 6 am when we finished it, just to start shooting at 9...).

Plus, in the beginning we were supposed to do a whole other scene where the girl would meet the boy, but that was made impossible, because we suddenly couldn't film at the location we choose and wrote it for, so finally we just ended up doing it the cheap way like it is now...

Thanks for your honnest reply though.

I didn't quite get the message. I felt it like a word that is "just on the tip of my tounge" but it never materialized for me. The long shots didn't bother me, but that style is probably more suitable to a longer form movie. At the end, I was hoping there was going to be another minute or two of movie to better get the idea across but instead it was padded with more credits. My personal opinion is that short movies should have short credits.

One technical note. I think a tripod should have been used on a couple of the distant shots in the beginning since the camera motion was too noticeable. Most of it was shot well and everything seemed professional otherwise.

No. Not until you tell me how you do such clean sky replacement.

that would take too long and im going on vacation ;-)

magician never reveals his secrets, "they'll beg and flatter you for it, but once they know it, you'll be nothing to them. the secret impresses no one. the trick you use it for is everything"

Okay, then I'm trying to decide on what text to enter. Should it be:

"A pox on both your houses!"

OR

"I hope you aren't going to Hawaii on vacation!"

;-0 (that's the emoticon for Great Spirit of Anger)

I thought of what I should put into the text. It's not even offensive and doesn't bring a curse upon anyone.

My TV Pilot which is getting some attention (shot on XH-A1)
 

Hey all,

I did a half hour TV pilot called Codeword Secret that was shown last month at the New York Television Festival. It went very well and generated some industry interest for us (tempered by the fact that an NBC's Chuck is too similar thematically).

It also lead to me being hand-picked by Phil Rosenthal, creator of Everybody Loves Raymond, for a six month mentorship to help me develop a show. They haven't worked out the details, and it will probably amount to a phone call per month, but it still isn't bad.

Anyway, the pilot is here:
Codeword Secret on MSN's Soapbox

We have actually updated it since this, but the NYTF has a six month exclusive on it, so we can't host the updated version yet.

It was shot with the Canon XH-A1 with Kevin Good, my co-creator, as DP. We did principal photography in two days, and then had two four-hour pick-up shoots. If you have any questions about the setups let me know.

Let me know what you think.

Hey all,

I forgot to mention that the trailer is up here:

I couldn't watch the pilot, but watched the trailer. Looks good. Hey, you actually got me when he answered the phone, I had the volume up pretty good and wasn't expecting that... made me jump! Good luck with it.

Some Wakeboarding...

I watched yours, and it was great. Pretty suspenseful, thought the man was going to pull out a gun, surprised me with the stuffed toy. Good work.

The Red Wraith
 

Here's a movie a made for the ChillerTV contest. It's about 6 1/2 minutes long. I think it came out pretty good for my first serious effort.
