What are your favorite prison movies? (Other than Shawshank Redemption.)

When I mention prison movie, I hear people here say "Shawshank." I'm just wondering, which other prison movies do you like? I haven't seen "The Experiment" yet. Cool Hand Luke was good. There were a few Alcatraz movies that were pretty good (I wasn't the biggest fan of The Rock, I guess that's more...

yep, RB. walked out on Shawshank. My date and I agreed. Tried to watch it a couple years later after all the "trendies" in "El Lay-Hollyweird" (everybody knows it's really Malibu-SantaMonica-Venice-th...

ANY of these other ones will do

Orange is the new Black is simply fantastic. Completely agree, Theresa.

Malcolm Bowen

I would say the Green Mile. RIP Michael Clark Duncan. Yes Orange is the new Black is really good.

Richard "RB" Botto

I agree, Malcolm. Here's a tribute I wrote about MCD last year when he passed. He was a true gent. https://www.stage32.com/blog/remembering-michael-clarke-duncan...

Dslr?

I'm looking to invest in a DSLR, which camera gives you the best options?

Roberto DePalo

The Canon 7D has worked wonderfully for me and many others

Ralph Barnette

The 7D and 5D are great cameras for what they are good for but better options are available for the money depending on what one needs to do. For instance, the BMCC Pocket camera in many instances perf...

It always comes down to application and budget. There are a lot of options that can make it confusing for some people, but that's really a good thing, because more options are finally becoming accessible for a reasonable price.

I'd like to throw my hat in on this one... I've used a LOT of cams, but I am a Panasonic guy. I love my cams: https://vimeo.com/51416194 Panasonic AF-100 The first DSLR hybrid and my brilliant little...

Kickstarter or Indie GoGo?

I haven’t done crowdfunding for a project before, now I’m faced with this decision. I’ve read up on both, but I want to know from people who have used either or both — Kickstarter or Indie GoGo? My budget will be small since it's for a short film. Any advice?

Kickstarter mos def. My Kickstarter for our half-animated #webseries and parody of a D&D book just funded but we have 5 days left. Kickstarter is not for the weak of heart! http://bit.ly/BnBRPG

Crowdfunding

I'm making a short film and I'm reviewing the different crowdfunding sites and I'm not sure which too use. I wanted to know if any of you have recommendations. Thanx.

Albert DiFiore

Kickstarter or Indiegogo. But the key to success is your promotion of the project.

Andrew Heard

Seen it, definitely understandable but I think most indie film creators will have to start with donations based crowdfunding if they don't have an established audience.

Bert Newsom

Indiegogo, let's you keep any funds raised. Kickstarter, is more well known, but if you don't raise the amount you are trying to earn, you get nothing. Also, check out www.mindplate.tv or junto box fi...
