  1. Thank you for your input. I do have a passion, an extreme passion. All my life I have been wanting to do something where I can fully express myself and put my thoughts and opinions out there. About a year or two ago I came across the possibiltity of a carreer in film. From then on, I can't think of anything else , I have no desire to do anything else with my life. All I want is to make great films and inspire others just as films I've seen have inspired me. That is my dream. That is my passion. I am prepared to do what ever it takes to get me there, and I have extremely high expectations. I know I can do it, and I will. (Please do not think me to be cocky. I am just a girl determined to fulfill her dream. And I think the best lace to start for someone like me is right here.)
  2. YOu guys are great. Thanks for all the help. Yes, I guess you could consider me a student, if by student you mean someone who is trying very hard and with great interest to learn. I can't afford classes, so I am trying as hard as I can to get experience as often as possible. I am not sure at the moment the model of handicam I have, it's in the repair shop at the moment. I know I need one with firewire, but I have no idea what programs are needed to add effects or edit films. It would be awesome to be able to edit my films like that. You don't know how many times I've had to rewind the tape and film again, (usually erasing a couple seconds of the last scene :( ) A question: What exactly is shutter speed and white balance? Thanks for all your help guys.
  3. Wow. Thanks you guys. NOw I won't feel like a complete idiot anymore. :D
  4. Anyone here a TIm Burton fan? He happens to be my favorite director and the sad thing is most aren't familiar with him, so I don't usually get to discuss him with others often. It would make me quite happy to be able to discuss him with someone as into film as I am. I am open to any thoughts negative or postive. [/size]
  5. Hello again. One more important quetsion... :huh: I was hoping to get sarted on my own film projects soon, but I have a really crappy old handicam. I was wondering what camera and/or accesseries are neccessary to make a fairly good quality film. (I have a budget ranging from $100-$300.) Thank you again. -Elise-
  6. Hello all. I am an ameture in filmaking....ok, I'll be honest; I have no idea what I am doing, but would really like to. I hope to one day be great director myself, and in preperation I have been studying the greats and their works, BUT, that's only half of it. The other extremely important part is the actual process of filmmaking. Besides knowing that you neec comstumes, makeup, sets, and actors, I have no idea what else you need such as types of actual film, lenses, etc. I have no idea the difference between 35mm and 18mm, I've never even heard of 8-only, so yes, I am lost. I would greatly appreciate the help of someone more experienced to explain to me these film terms and processes. :) -Any help what-so-ever are VERY appreciated.-:)
