Thanks Rebecca!

Welcome, Keenan. Your film looks awesome. Hope to network in the future.

Hello Keenan, and sweet blessings to you on all of your present and future endeavors.

Thank you and blessing to you as well Tamesha!

Happy new year and thx for sharing your music video!

Love, love, LOVE this! Great information, and fantastic encouragement for indie filmmakers!

Oh, and I love "Every Frame a Painting" 's expansion on Steven Speilberg's owners. SO GOOD!

@Jjm I love your grip truck, I could do with one always on hand. You are spot on that with a rushed time limit, the quick but effective shots add richer layers after a Master. EG “worms eye view” “pull in/out” “zolly” ETC. Time is luxury and on some low budget sets blocking and shot listing is a tiny window of opportunity.

Oh waw thank you for sharing, this was really cool to watch. When we shoot stuff it's always a low budget things and we do things in a very similar way because most of the time we only have the location and crew for a day.

My partner actually wrote a blog about our recent project a couple of weeks ago.

Like Leya Kokoravec said this was very interesting. Thank you.

Any time we shoot a narrative project we do extensive preproduction to optimize our time. I've actually created a spreadsheet that let's me calculate how much time we need to shoot something and it's pretty spot on.
