Check reviews on Amazon, B&H, and see actual results on youtube. There are many negative reviews on the output and on the functioning of the scanner. A major complaint is it only engages one sprocket at a time which leads to jams.

Nicely shot. I especially liked the wide angle daytime scenic shots in the first clip. Good luck.

It's not that people with talent don't have to work hard to learn the skills necessary to do and keep their jobs, it's more that they have an undefinable ability to excel at what they do. The Beatles, the Stones, Clapton were talented. They garnered millions of fans when they were in their 20's, after just a couple of years in the business. Spielberg, Coppola, Kubrick, Hitchcock were talented. Picasso was talented. What they did clicked with tens of millions of people. It was unique and fresh and people loved it and still do decades later. These people are all rarities. 10,000 people audition for American idol and one very talented person gets to win the title. None of these people had connections. What they had was talent and a work ethic that was recognized and which propelled them to the top of their fields. A million other people without that talent can learn the skills but they can't do what these people did.

Premiere Pro does everything you could want. There's lots of youtube videos that explain every function you might want to use.

Well of course this is true at the present time in American films. As I said in another post I haven't seen a good one in several years now. There's no quality, no talent on display. It's all a quick dash to the bank. The same is true in the music industry. The same is true in politics. The dumbing down of America is complete.

First is talent. A handful of people in a million have it. You can learn the science and craft of cinematography but without talent you can never achieve lasting success. You may get work, you may direct low budget films or soap operas or commercials, or you may get nowhere. But talent is rare and recognizeable and without it you can't go very far. The ability to sell yourself and get jobs. A record of doing good work once you get it. A good business sense and the ability to make money for yourself and others. The ability to motivate people.

The Deuce.

I really like it. I think it's very professional, looks and sound great. Have you gotten work since posting this?

Hi, I am a new member here. I'm retired and am interested in photography, video, editing, music, and a bunch of other hobbies and pursuits. My friend and fellow retiree Bruce and I jam about once a week over the internet. Here is a video I made from clips we each shot of us adding to a live jam with additional vocals and instruments. I enjoy shooting and editing. I have no expectation of more than doing cinematography for enjoyment.

What's the password?

The stills are great. They look like they come from a big budget feature film.

Not sure why there are no comments. I just joined the forum and saw your trailer. As a novice myself it looks very well shot and very well acted. Maybe it's the fact I'm in the US, but I didn't hav a clue to what the film was about. It seemed like all action and no discernible story. Hope that helps in some way.
