Hello friends,

This is Martin Anaya, Director of the California Film Foundation. I have a special message for anyone who considers his or herself a film maker, director, producer  or cinematographer.

This Saturday night we are launching an amazing film making program we call CINE VISIONARIES. We're doing this with a training workshop by none other than Academy Award winning director KIETH MERRILL (The Last Cowboy).…

Well, mixing the audio, adding sound effects/foley. Sounding good with the sound track music (which just arrived).

However, I am having an issue with color matching. All the effects shots (rendered from After Effects) are "dark" compared to the original footage. I have tried several settings adjustments, rendered to Bluray, and saw NO difference. Everything is dark. I am suspecting the Bluray HD range of colors. On a DVD, I don't think it would be an issue. Everything looks…

Whew! I took last week off in the attempt to finish all the VFX on my movie short. With all the multi-tasking and lacking social life, I was almost 100% finished. One effect still needs development and a few need some fixing and re-render. I was sooo close. :)

I am trying to have the project complete by a certain date. I have had to compromise on  some of the VFX. There was a certain look I was going for, but with the time contraint, I do not have the time.…

I am inspired by this invitatiion and I would LOVE to attend .. to  contribute and be a part of this Visionary invitation .. as an actress, filmmaker and poet this invite makes my heart 'skip a beat.'

My heart and soul are with you ..unfortunately the rest of me is in NEW JERSEY.

The majority of dSLR shooters require a light gear load as we usually do not have the luxury of a full crew to help carry our stuff. We also might move to several locations in a single day, and more equipment means slower set ups and breakdowns which can make a tight video production schedule even tighter. There are, however, a few things that I recommend even one-man-band shooters to carry around due to…

Hello everyone, I'm pretty much new here and would be glad to know everyone here.

Hopefully collaborate with them for my next feature project.

Check my page whenever you have time...thanks.

I will be shooting a teaser in a few weeks to raise money for a feature to be shot in feb 2012. I am in need of the following:

Director of Photography (with own equipment)

Gaffer (with at least basic 3 point lighting equipment)

Special FX artist - There isn't much in terms of blood going on. We do have a person who will be working with us doing this but it would be nice to have 2 people. 

Production Assistant.

This will be a one day shoot…

In conjunction with the opening of the new Mosaic Acting Studio in Lodi, we'd like to have an open casting call on Saturday, September 10.  Media Casting Group will be there, and we'd like to have a few independent film makers join us to accept headshots and resumes for their upcoming projects.  You'll be able to get some exposure, and perhaps even hold some auditions if you'd like to.  If you're interested, contact Charlie Holliday at charlie@charlieactor.com.

Thanks.

I have been an actress( Theatre, Film, TV)  and a Director of Theatre for many years and never really thought about the merits of it until I started teaching acting classes.  Why we do what we do and does it really matter or does it matter that it matters etc.....Until one day, I was teaching an acting class, when I had a particularly challenging student in front of me and I had to stop and re-think my approach; what was I going to tell this actress...she was just not very good no matter…

Finishing up on the principal shots for a movie short with working title Magus Movie.

A lil' bit of fantasy, a lil' bit of matial arts, a bit o' philosophical psychobabble and a plethora of visual effects and post-processing.

This is a trans-media short supporting a feature  length movie, working title: Nunya.

I don't know when the final final product will be finished. But I will keep y'all informed...

With a slew of comic themed films out this year including Thor, Capitain America, Green Lantern and yet another X-Men movie it has me pondering just how far we've come.

In my day we salivated at the mere thought of seeing one of our beloved comic heroes on the big screen. All too often we were let down by cheezy plotlines and special effects. So imagine my 12 year old imagination gone wild when I feasted on the first Superman film...you know, the ONLY Superman film?!... Dick…

 I am looking for an actress, mid 20's to early 30's for music video being shot in about 3 weeks. There will be no dialogue spoken.  I am also looking for an artist (drawing) that is possibly looking to add work to his/her portfolio, that can create landscapes as well as characters. These positions are volunteer. I have the Cinematographer, Camera person, and Visual Effects all lined up. Just need to fill these last two positions. 

The song that the video will be shot to is…
