writer/director
I'm an award-winning writer/director. I also do a bit of producing, editing, and shooting - I believe in being as versatile as possible in our increasingly-digital world. I'm based in the Midwest, I love playing complicated board games, I drink a lot of chocolate stout, and I eat a lot of pizza.
I have to admit, Batman-esque vigilante applications also crossed my mind... : )
Right on Luke. Btw, took a look at your site, looks like you're doing some very interesting things with EDM/Weekly Freebies. Keep up the good work, I have a lot of respect for online film innovators!
Though it's probably obvious and to be assumed as I wrote the article, I disagree, and it's because I believe in auditioning. Auditioning used to be only something that actors had to spend time on. Then the digital era hit, and suddenly agencies started to have to complete more works on spec, voiceover artists started having to audition via sites like Voice123, illustrators had to send out spec Illustrator pdf's, etc. With digital, people are going to find ways of auditioning others. It's arguable that the audition process isn't worth it - all well and good. But take note of the clientele scoreAscore has attracted. It's worth it to at least some to throw your name in the hat, and at the end of it all even if you're not selected, you have a piece that has value. That's not something that actors even get from their audition process.
Thanks Griffin! I'm glad to have helped. And of course, thank you for doing the video roundup!
Hmm, I'm not entirely sure about that one Julian. I am really not much of a FCPX kinda guy, I'm still editing in FCP7. I know in FCP7 and Premiere it creates a new sequence with all the clips in order. So you can drag and drop into bins as you like. Small price to pay for all that tedious merging from in-points. Hopefully it's comparably easy for FCPX.
Yeah, I agree. I'm just suggesting that another safeguard like this could be useful as an additional set risk mitigation. A good way of knowing where (fill in the blank) is on set. Or where it went.
