It's a barber shop.

Alright I have talked to the small business man, and he has agreed to help me with filming him. I will say that I will be patient with the process and having to film this will take a good amount of time, and also there will be a lot happening during this time, so again I have to be patient. Is there any advice you all have in filming a small business for an advertisement on Facebook and Youtube?

Narcissism to it's maximum, is this some kind of parody?

No it isn't.

Well yeah of course it can be:

 

 

And this is all without one of these which you may need, a light meter:

 

 

But here again it is very easy to take a picture on an iPhone, just pull it out, go to camera, click to focus, and then press a button.

Calculate the field of view:

Use the Hyperfocal Distance:

Rely on the Sunny 16 rule:

Use a manual lens and measure from the sensor to the subject:

Use White Balance Presets and use them based on the time of the day:

 

The only money I make is from a part-time job and I am a part-time student as well. Filmmaking when you are starting out does not pay well, because well the competition is these professional music videos for pop singers and these Hollywood movies despite how negative that sounds. We are like the indie bands at a rock concert where the majority of the audience wants to see the main bands.

Hi, I would like to be interested in visual effect making in filmmaking, could anyone tell me what software do filmmakers use the most? I am somewhat familiar with Adobe After Effects.

I apologize you all, due to business rights and privacy and out of respect, I am unable to completely document my small town, as I do not have the credentials or experience required to document it completely and properly. The documentary project is "too ambitious". Although I can maybe document one small business instead. Oh and HGTV was already documenting my small town.

Well, I may need to tidy up and organize my room. Here is a photograph of my cat in my dresser, taken on the Canon FD 35-105 F/3.5 on the Canon T2i.

I remember from a phone call with an FD lens repair guy from a distant country him saying that it is cheaper to buy another FD lens than to repair it.

Here is a new skit I have made:

 

The documentary I'm working on may take some time to get to as I have a lot of focusing to do on college.

I know some of you all may not like talking about this or am bored of it, but if you were thrown in the ring of Hollywood scandals and drama how would you feel? Since a lot of us are from the film industry, and I think we all are familiar with how crazy Hollywood can be, if you were apart of it all, how would you react?

To me, the idea of Youtube paying for you with ad revenue is a myth. Pewdiepie who has millions of subscribers I would say would just have enough to pay for his rent and bills, because of youtube, and he's not like super rich with his own mansion or private condo.

I need to organize how I'll film the entire documentary I was given, but I am not so sure how, and it feels too complicated. I have everything that is needed, but I don't know how I'll film the thing. Do you all have any suggestions?

Well according to the rule of copyright licensing, anything made 100 years and before is in the public domain... So I suppose the stuff made in 1920 and before could now be royalty free. That's quite a lot, and there may be some interesting stories that some of you all could use as writing for your films.

Photo I took on a Canon T2i with Edmika FD 35-105 F/3.5

New picture I took with the edmika 35-105 F/3.5 with Canon T2i.

I haven't taken any new photos or videos yet.

Ya'know here is something, what would happen if Donald Trump read a Twilight book? And then went on to say, "Twilight is the best romance I have ever read."?

Well I suppose the democrats will switch to android and PC and may throw away their apple phones because Trump touched it... Like everything else.

I think you might've misunderstood him. 2.39:1 theatres can also show 1.85:1 easily, they are played in the middle of the screen. The curtains just won't go full length.

Ohhhhh.... Okay, so I guess 2.39:1 or 1.85:1 doesn't really matter and there are adjustments to both aspect ratios, thank you. I guess I'll go back to the aspect ratio I am a fan of, 1.85:1 as it does look quite unique when a movie is played in that aspect ratio now and is quite rare.
