Lol this forum more controversial and perhaps random than the Da Vinci Code itself…. I agree with Lawriejaffa, only my film, Chloe the Dog is excluded from the 'sux' list ok? lol But I think a lot of young people that are exploring filmmaking come to websites like these to learn more from thos...

Hey thanks man, yeah I initially got a bit stuck with your suggestion of finding a friend to make a web site for you. But i thought about it some more, and I suppose as your applying for film, thats all they're going to be interested in. Obviously you still have to present some creative personal ski...

Whatever you do, do not type it the way you have typed that post!!! Use proper English and stop being lazy. Oh, I apologise sincerely. I wasn’t aware that forums messages had to be 100% grammatically correct? And I certainly wasn’t aware that I was applying for university in that mess...

Hey all, hope u can help me with this one, sort of an emergency. As some of u know im doin year 12 and stuff, anyways i have applied for Uni, neway they want a portfolio of my work. Now i wanna really get creative with this stuff but im a bit tight on time at da momment with exams and all. So wat u ...

Wow, cool, thanks for the comments. Yeah I think my dog put on a bit of weight after that day, used a whole packet of biscuits! I feel kinda guilty. And yeah that part with the flying object, that took some time. I needed the dog to run forward towards the sunrise while the camera panned up. Only wa...

Ah in reference to my orginal post, with that film festival .Well ive put it up on youtube now. Anyways the links in Chloe the Dog topic under members films. I would give you a link here but my nets down, so sorry

Hey all, thought i'de share my first movie with you all. This is the outcome of no preparation, no script, no storyboard and no actors and only abut 5 hours work! and it made it into the finals of a film festival! :D Anyway i know the narrations a bit scrappy, but considering its my first film im pr...

Hey all, this is just something I typed up the other day, its a bit of a laugh (i think). Please dont take any offence to this, and if you dont find it funny, sorry to bother you with such insignificant cr** :D But yeah, dont take any of this seriously. The Fool-Proof Idiots Guide to Becoming a Film...

well i would find out who the judges are. If it's the school itself, i would certainly make one of those typical 'stereotypical teen' films. Guns, action, bad langauge, etc etc. Cos if its the school, most of em will be into the 'steriotypical teen' films. But if the juges are actually industry pros...

Lol dont know if ive 'decoded' your message rite? im assuming ur askin wat a good script for a 12 year old audience would be? lol :P Im new to filmaking myself, so if im wrong here, dont strike me down lol. I, would assume that being a film for a 12 year old audience I would focus on a mild theme, b...

hmmm okay than, thanks all. I think I gotta research this a little more :P But yeah that camera that Lawriejaffa mentioned the DVX100b sounds pretty nifty. Sounds like im obviously going to need to redo my budget to the $12,000(AU) mark lol. I think the best approach would be to keep using the camer...

Hey all, look I got a pretty nifty little DV camera, a Panasonic NV-GS11. Great little thing, however im ready to go the next level up. Ive been reading through these forums and on the net at all these different cameras, but I just cant decide. Now i want to be entering film festivals and perhaps ev...

Yep ryhs you got it mate, I really wouldn't want to go onto a forum with a big ego, saying i am the next Spielberg, especially with the title of newbie, that'd be askin for lots of trouble lol. But yeah I see your point Epsilon, and I certainly agree with you. Good thing education isnt important as ...

Sounds like a f...
