Your going to use a Consumer level HD camcorder to shoot a flick for a film festival. When this Festival is all said and done, you won't win, some person who shot their flick with MiniDV tape camcorder will win. MiniDV tape camcorders do not interpolate the video like all other storage media HD camcorders do.

Comment on What are the chances of a 14 year old getting his movie entered into the Buffalo International Film Festival? by Neil

I have had a number of films accepted in festivals (and been on a few admission juries) so here is some advice.

1 – Your youth is a plus and will actually assist you in getting your films shown. Audiences LOVE to see the work of upcoming filmmakers.

2 – Keep your film short. No more then 5 – 10 minutes long. Juries would rather screen three short films than one 20min one. A feature film should be at least 96mins.

3 – Keep the hand-held camera work to a minimum, use artificial lighting and good make-up. If your zombie make-up looks amateurish then NO festival will screen it.

4 – The Buffalo International Film Festival is a lofty goal. Over 20.000 movies are sent in and a very few are chosen. You will be competing with professional filmmakers with budgets in the tens of thousands . Make a play for a few local festivals first and work your way up.

5 – BUT, if you have made a film that outshines what is on TV, i.e cast, story, effects, direction than, for for it!

This story is actually an old school english poem .... It starts like this ,, A poet was very rational .He doesnt believe in Ghosts and stuffs. In his area there was a bungalow rumored of ghosts. He was challeged by the locals to stay der 4 a nite. He agreed . Went in. After some silent hours he started to hear weird noises, things started to fall off etc.,stuffs like that. Finally he got so panic and enters the bureau to hide from it. SILENCE ...!! He heard the words whispering in his ears ''wanna share my place?''

Comment on How to make a film feel like the fifties? by Liam

Liam — Sun, 08 Jan 2012 13:49:59 +0000

Use props from that time
use music from the 50’s as the soundtrack
Watch lots of tv shows and movies from the 50’s to observe the dialogue
@averystratford good suggestion, that will help nicely
