Article Comment – The Easiest Way to Make Extra Money As a Filmmaker? Try Shooting Live Events

Live events are the epitome of low-integrity filmmaking work.

They're hard to shoot, rarely compel anyone through their content, don't necessarily pay well, and don't leverage your artistic career whatsoever. That's why you find a lot of amateurs and low-grade professionals doing live events... because regardless of how talented you are, no one will watch your content if it's from a live event hahaha! And that goes for weddings, concerts, conferences, and so on...

Article Comment – Lighting for Mood: Another SMAPP Lighting Tutorial from Stillmotion

"My suggestion is that any courses you place behind a pay wall in the future be at least technically correct."

Amen to that.

Article Comment – Lighting for Mood: Another SMAPP Lighting Tutorial from Stillmotion

As a ad for Profoto, this was great.

As a lighting design tutorial for filmmaking or video production, this was crap. I'm pretty sure it wouldn't be hard to come up with better lighting design with cheap lighting and a DSLR - which shouldn't be the case. Quality equipment is supposed to leverage skills, not the other way around.

So I suspect they focused on the product presentation part to the detriment of the lesson and advice to be heard.

If you mean visual quality, there's a lot of ways to make your match using software... You can crop, add grain, match noise, add shakiness, and so on.

Article Comment – Keys to Film Financing: Producing Within a Financial Framework

I started reading this article, then noticed that every single one of the four pictures were essentially photographs of dollar paper - which kills it for me.

Also, why coupling dash symbols? Isn't one per set enough?

Are you just trying to promote your film and company?
