That's a little bit too broad desu, they most often just involve drugs and some mafioso people. When's the last time you saw a student film about political corruption
>>67854490
Honestly this is a problem throughout fiction. What is there to care about desu? Everything is about crime

>>67854351
Saw this all time the time too.
Worst one was a one-take/one-shot of an aftermath of a bloody shootout
I made a music video with some guys for extra credit in school once
it was fun
>>67854709
HA how many SJW tears were there over this
It's actually really pro-trans and pro-gay but because it's about a straight white man they must think it's evil
>>67854709
Holy fucking shit, this was great. I didn't expect that.
I made a mockumentary romantic parody of King Kong vs Godzilla

>>67854709
This is great. Don't read the youtube comments though, they're fucking cancer. Its not even anti gay or trans, fucking offense seeking cunts

I swear to christ I had an eadier time telling my cat what to do, than some of these "I'll be such a celeb like oh my god" cunts
At least my cat doesn't tell me she doesnt need to put effort in since she is doing it for free and the grade doesnt matter since she already sucked the teacher off for a pass
>>67853645

Nobody wants to see an awkward fedora-wearing redditor dressed as a mafioso killing people like flies. Which is what ever amateur film is about.
They want to see him in some kind of comedy sketch about masturbating. Or trying to ask a girl out.
These plebs start making videos to escape real life. Fine, do that if you want. Just don't expect anyone else to want to watch your roleplaying faggotry

You'll stand out definitely, almost all of the entries will be black and white pseudo-intellectual shit
It's not difficult to make a good film if you're an intelligent person, can put together a few sets and write compelling dialogue. Pic related
Problem is 98% of the people in film are idiots

>>67864691
actually liked the way this was drawn
also I blinked about twice when watching
>>67864549
What do you mean?
if I was going to make art films I wouldn't have any actors
think about it
acting is for the stage, not for the camera
the camera is supposed to document reality
I would focus on the Church and Church rites / ceremonies, cathedrals, music, monasteries
>>67853645

We have a decent script down. Not Oscar-worthy, but it's good enough.
>https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B6uwaxNQt5HRTThUYjVJOTNkcWs
Here it is again in case no one's seen it yet. A noir written by people who have never seen a noir, edited by me. We're going for a Sin City visual style, obviously not as refined as that but general ideas are there.
>>67854088
Wow, it's like a shitty rip-off of dead like me without any of the humour or quality
>>67866198
I wouldn't say "good", but the twist is entertaining enough.
I'm assuming you won't be using any lighting for the night scenes so you're very likely to fuck it up to the point where it's unwatchable. Unless you have a really good camera.
>>67857575
>I'm surprised that a woman didn't win Tropfest 2013, there were so many female entries including one by myself. My video was much better than these unfunny men, It highlighted the the gender inequalities in the 21st century, as well as the sexist agenda against females on websites such as Reddit. The fact that women barely even made the finals shows that Tropfest is run by sexist males who want to perpetuate the disgusting view that females can't make it in comedy.
>>67866931
I'm still thinking about the lighting. I have something like pic related I can use, but in terms of actual lights it's difficult to do anything without somewhere to plug it in.
I feel like since it's a noir it's okay to have really deep shadows. I've just never done something like this before, only done actual three-point lighting once.
>>67860492
>It's not difficult to make a good film if you're an intelligent person, can put together a few sets and write compelling dialogue
Have you ever made a film? Not insulting you, just curious.
>>67867281
if the shadows aren't dark enough you can always fix that in editing and it have plenty of options, when it's too dark there's not much you can do without ruining the quality of the image.
best way to make sure you're safe is to check your camera's histogram.
>>67854709
Fucking kek.
Expected pretty much everything right up to...that twist. Holy fucking shit.
As someone who's got a couple trans friends, they actually portrayed that sort of relationship fairly well, sort of awkward but it's still friendly. Also props to Pete for actually respecting names, damn.
>>67867551
>histogram
I'll be honest I'm gonna have to look that up, but what you're saying is it's better to overlight a picture rather than underlight it?I can work with that desu.
>>67854342
Oh god
>>67854937
>Worst one was a one-take/one-shot of an aftermath of a bloody shootout
That actually sounds like it could be cool as fuck on a large scale. Pristine white suit walking through the carnage, flanked by bloody bodies, you never see his face, white suit walks up to some fucked up dude in a torn up grey suit with a briefcase, suddenly a gun muzzle's pointed at his head.
Maybe it's just because I am a student and unoriginal Tarantino shit appeals to me, who knows.
Anyone have that student film about the gay teenager?
He gets bullied and then there are time skips and thenhe dies.
>>67867690
yeah, pretty much. it's almost impossible to overlight a picture because you can almost always do this:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stopping_down
you don't have to become and expert at reading histograms, just make sure the darks and the lights don't blow up. LCD displays on the camera aren't too reliable.
>>67868091
Is it all in first person by any chance? I had the misfortune of helping to edit something like that
>>67868135
Thanks man. I don't know why I'm putting so much effort into this fucking short, we haven't even started filming and I'm worried to shit about how this is going to go. Maybe it's just because this is my first time directing, and I wanna get all autistic about it.
>be me last year
>bought a DSLR camera and lights along with a few dollys and a steadicam

Why do people think that making a movie is hard? If you're not retarded it's pretty easy; the only actual difficulty was saving a few months for the money.
>>67868169
I can barely remember. I don't know if it was famously bad or just something on /tv/.
A few shots of the gang walking into a park before evil teenagers picked on them. Can't remember if it was done in first person.
Most of it was explained through on-screen text like a silent film. "TWO YEARS LATER JAKE HAS A BOYFRIEND", stuff like that.
>>67868209
not the guy you're replying to, but that's a good attitude to have imhotbh, have fun and expect to fail and learn from it
>>67868231
That's a pretty big claim you're making without any proof.
>>67868291
Yeah, because I'm going to post proof of who I am on an chinese cartoon forum. That'd be great for my career.
>>67858293
Man, this so much.
It's amazing to me how little a person thinks of/pays attention to the technical details unless they're so glaringly off.
Why are women so obsessed with gender?
I remember when i was around 15-16 for a summer making 2 short films with a friend and his younger brother, best one was his idea, a rocky parody with bits of naked gun thrown in. basiclt comedy boxing.
I played a racist steyotype iron sheik rip off boxer, so it was like the Rocky vs Ivan fight.
friends little brother played mac and frind played Rocky.
I rememeber we got shirtless in the end and boxed in the garden, using ketchup as blood for later scenes.
Got preety real fightey so proud of that scene. Though, looking back, slightly homoerotic.
>>67868463
Yeah, because I'm just going to take your word for it on a Vietnamese basket-weaving forum.
>>67868511
the entire thing sounds pretty gay
>>67868463
Cause we're just gonna trust someone on a Mongolian stir fry forum

Kid's short I made in high school, took us 9 weeks to animate. It was fun to do, I enjoyed doing the narration and VO for some of the characters.
>>67868493
not all of them.
it's trendy, it's what festival juries want and it's more likely to win awards for the same reasons Crash won an oscar for best picture.
>>67853645
ayy I've made both the crime movie and the suicide short. They're fun nigga don't knock it.
>>67854793
Did that work out pretty well? Anything you can show us?
>>67868790
People are obsessed with finding something stupid to identify with be it gender, race, cartoon show about ponies etc.
Women just seem to fall into gender for some reason while men have more possibilities
>>67854342
I'm guessing since everyone is obese this was made somewhere in America
>>67869047
True.
For example I'm addicted to talking and learning about film
