Film, Productions, Studio media incorporated
Last night I did not have to chase a hamster around. He was caught by my none lethal trap at 3AM and put back in solitary confinement. I had lunch yesterday with Mr.David Lynch lightman guy. He had some incredible advise about what to do and not to do. There were some shots I wanted to attempt and he advised against some of the harder shots. His advise was the story was good on its own and with just a well thought out tripod shoot with a few dolly shots it should be fine. Better to have a clean look the a distracting look. This doesnt mean I still wont try some intersting techniques however I will wait until I have got a good base done. Tell the story simply and well, Then if there is time start messing with harder shots. We talked about light and how you should point your lights at walls or white boards to bounce the light on your subject also recording the rooms sound when nobody is in the room. you pick up the drips humms ticks just the sound of the room this comes in later when editing. When you have your boom on your actors and they are not talking it picks up the room sound as soon as they talk you dont hear the room sound just them talking. So if you have recorded your room sound you lay a track down of nothing but ambient rooom noise so that it does not cut out the moment the actors start talking. Great advise.
Oh so about my title.
I have put a website out there for people interested in projects that my friends or I will be working on. Either to collaborate or watch in dismay. Eitherway I wanted to have a nice name for the site but I did not want to send the wrong message. The first site was hamsterfactory.com and well nobody got it and wanted to know what the hell the name meant. It is based off of a 12 monkeys documentary. Anyway I decided to change the name. If you put productions on the end of anything that means you produce something and other people may want you to produce what they are working on well that is not me. Studio would mean you have a studio people can come and shoot there movies in, not me again, Media sounds like your renting media equipment, finally I went with films. I am even hesitant to use this because I have yet to make a film let alone films. So hopefully this title will be a self fullfilling prophecy. may I should have called it lottery winner. It seems like everyone and thier pet monkey is trying to make a production studio business of some kind or another. They are all going to be big, they are all going to rock hollywood, they are all going to get awards. I just want to tell stories and hope to make them good enough that someone would want to listen and talk about it over coffee and pie. If I do that I win. So the website is www.frontstreetfilms.com if the site updates and upates and then one day there are not updates it could mean I went the way of the dodo bird or is it doedoe or doughdough.
