Filmsets RUINED By One Thing (Every Time)

I would love to see a video series from you about all the different positions on a film set

@@block_shado alright, I will work on that series. Thank you for your input.

Its called a soundstage. We do not film, we video. :-) Digital Video and film require different skill sets. Having DIFFERENT historical and TECHNOLOGICAL timelines spanning 150 years. Have PRIDE and KNOWLEDGE of the gear we use including the words that describe what we do. :-)

@Rocketryman bro, no one really cares in the actual industry. It's an interchangeable word. Film, movies, etc. It doesn't matter as long as you know what it means

It's a soundstage or a movie set. We do not work on "filmsets" anymore. :-) We make movies, not films, using DIGITAL Video. :-) Film, filming, and filmmaking are the most misused words in the industry. 🙂 Digital Video and film require different skill sets. Having DIFFERENT historical and TECHNOLOGICAL timelines spanning 150 years. Have PRIDE and KNOWLEDGE of the gear we use including the words that describe what we do. Our tools are Digital Video, Non-linear, and CGI. We are moviemakers, not filmmakers and we do what film wishes it could. We are Videographers and/or cinematographers. 🙂 We video or are videoing, we do not film. That's the other RARE professionals who know how to use film and film cameras, like an ARRIFLEX 435 Panavision R-200 and Steenbeck flatbed film editors. Know the difference and have a better understanding of the craft. You will also stand out in an industry polluted with point-and-shoot "pros". Respect to you.✌♥

Thank you for your correction. You are correct, I do think it’s easy getting caught up in the lango of today. If that makes sense. I actually come from the analog days, I started out as a analog photographer and slowly moved my way into video, that is when analog was starting to phase out and digital was coming in. Its nice to get a refresher. I appreciate your insight. Thank you so much.

Love this. Thank you.

I think shotlists are for the rich. If you can shoot 1 page per day then shotlist it. If youre trying to shoot 5 pages a day then maybe storyboard it. Shooting even more... Make it up as you go and dont expect perfection.
