MattHawkins Online - Film Making Forum

Man this thread is so old, i doubt the people still need the tips

it can be done in photoshop with imageready as well

i have like 6 halfs of one, i can never seem to make any good ones, but i am going to finish the one i just started, il have it up soon.

Yes im afraid that your right, windows movie maker i guess was designed mroe for people that have little knowledge or experience with making movies (AKA the average windows owner) so it cant be too complexe.

? why not, maybe thats the lowest, but i doubt it, maybe its jus WMM maybe premiere can do it or something ill try first thing tomorow morning.

lol a giant pile... person beds down and takes 1 sniff, he stands up and the pile is gone! MAD COCAINE USAGE

thats it using the first setting you provided just reduce the bitrate to 1 KBps, thatll be 38 times smaller in size, and 36.6 divided by 38 is smaller than a meg! i think success smiles upon me with a golden gleaming grin.

no not a lighter lol a bible will block it, and the hackers going to be a russian punk. And yes there will be a chinese martial arts master, theres no such thing as a movie without one lol. And i probably will include most of these as some minor ideas but they are good thx.

well waste of time or not its something i wanna try so, .ra you said has small file size, never heard of .ra format but ill investigate.

ROFL of course not, itll probably be resolution 1x1, but the point is if i can get it thats a first step, after that i can try to make it watchable, but for now if i can do it itd be pretty cool to walk around and say here you wanna see a movie on this FLOPPY DISK, and theyll look at me like WTH

i actually never thought of those but thats mostly because they may have been good but they werent somethign that remained burned into my memory. Now what i have to say is look at when theyre made, maybe the bad making of sequels is a new thing, maybe back in the day people were capable of making de...

sugar may be ok as long as its not super fine, thats why flour is bad, somethin a bit larger wont get into your lungs so easily, when i filmed my movie i did snort but i did not actually pull anything, i was careful not for anything to get into my nose, sugar ought to be fine but jus make sure your ...

i am attempting a challenge, to fit a full 2 hour movie... onto a FLOPPY DISK, thats right one of them that holds 1.44 megs. Now i know most of the big things to take care of to make it smaller, like bitrate, framerate,etc. but does anyone know any other things that i can use to my advantage? thx fo...

the main thing is to experiment and play around with it because this is just another varient of the other effect mentioned by maj_barnes so just be creative kiddies and you can invent your own new style!

Beware: do not actually inhale fine flour, or talcum powder, i know this osunds funny but it is serious it will go to ur lungs and remain permanently there, and it WILL cause dificulty breathing!

Have any of you tried powdered sugar for Cocaine?

Ya i did i mentioned it above in my movie Wasted, from a distance it looks right on but since i have never seen coke from up close i dont know how it does for coke zoomed in

salt and sugar work just as well for coke but as long as its not zoomed right in, look at the movie WASTED in the members films section to see if the salt looks real enough from a distance.

thx ya it is, and as for the actions they too will be over the top, for example the gunfights would be completely exagerated and there is this one scene where there is a corner and tjis person takes out the clip from his gun and throws it to the corner then shoots the clip with the one remaining bul...

almost no-body will be from a distinguishable place (the city in which this takes place is called Generic city) and it is full of corruption, the mayor (aka the badguy) owns all of the mafias. The cops are the badguys and the gans are the so called law enforcers. Alot of people in this city are rich...

i dont have it but i think i know a friend who does and ill see ya because its hard to explain to those who do not know what it is

thx, the muzzle flashes were simply CGI added in Premiere but the muzzle flashes i used were different from those enourmous ones that most people use, the ones i used were from detonationfilms.com (there is a link to the site from WEBLINKS here at MattHawkins. it was in the second page in the smokey...

the first was the best because ti gave us somethign new, no one had ever seen a person dodge a bullet the way NEO did or the concept of The Matrix, the second one was nothign new jus an exxagerated version of the first and it s*cked, the last one made up for the second because it had some new ideas.

no way man, i doubt i have ever seen a good sequel, the problem is the people in hollywood see that the first mvoie worked and see the elements that people liked and they make a sequel and they always try to make ti better and they exagerate the elements that made the first movie good thus making th...

the best way to improve performance is format your hard drive, i do it regularily to make sure my comp doesnt become bogged down and too slow, but as for the startup thing the best way to do it is jus go to each individual settings of the programs in the taskbar and tell them not to start up upon tu...

not if there is any way for the pressure to escape, wat you would do is drill the hoel a bit deeper then put in the Pyrodex, then plug the hole with sawdust and the sawdust will fly out and thatll look alot mroe like a shotgun slug hitting a wooden beam
