How to Make an Independent Film : Equipment for Indie Film Making

[HedgesPictures]

Check out my indie videos sometime. Anyone in Louisiana, USA, would love to collaborate.

For a second there, I was like "TAPE stock? It's 2012 and you're talking in tapes?" I then noticed the "DV" logo. [facepalm]

poor audio was funny they talked about having good audio but was very mono-toned.

Cassandra,

No one cares if your Mormon.

lol £4000 for hd more like £100

[Eastenderzz]

@madman1128 no, it's like £4000 to buy a proffesional hd film camera. Unless you're going to use a holiday camera to shoot your film.

Great advice! Very practical advice that many people don't think of. As an independent film producer, I think its extremely important for emerging filmmakers to think outside the box. It's what has gotten me where I am today. I love that through sites like YouTube and videos like this, information is so accessible to artists. Thanks for the video!

“Pick up a camera. Shoot something. No matter how small, no matter how cheesy, no matter whether your friends and your sister star in it. Put your name on it as director. Now you’re a director. Everything after that you’re just negotiating your budget and your fee.”

- James Cameron

[Mirani2]

@SilverCinema I love you, James Cameron.

Such obvious advice, yet I'd never really thought of it like that. I figured that the film would have had to be good, professional, etc, but, you know, it makes sense that it wouldn't have to be. It just has to be...there!

[BiologicalUnit2380]

nothing like 'expert village' vids for imparting specific detailed info! ".... just make sure you have a good camera with enough controls on it and all that....." Yes sirreeee buddy bobcat tail! I'm rushing to the store now to get my cam!

[jarrodproductions]

Nice vid!

[pattyk77]

he's right, thats all you need really.  THen focus on the story and performances.

[mastersoldier]

Wow this video sucked! Quality sucks dick!

[onsalenow1234]

I watched your whole series, it's very good- thanks for all your tips!

Fuck dish network

[UrsaMinorUK]

This guy.... I wont say anything offensive but you get the message.

"Use digital because everyone uses it - no one uses anything else anymore"?? - You mean everyone apart from all the top filmmakers and cinematographers on earth who use 35? Or RED?

That aside... he just pisses me off.

[PaperIsland]

@UrsaMinorUK

Not trying to be a jerk, but RED is digital.

@JoelBitarProductions

Thanks bro

[frankthe6ftbunny]

Excellent info, have you heard of The Angry Filmmaker?

[deviantresearch]

this might be the least useful instructional video ever produced. Point 1: you need a camera to make a film. Point 2: your film will need sound. Thanks for nothing sport.

[BritishTwits]

make sure you have enough tape stock...

but I thought you said to "keep it digital" :0

[tarrizzzzzzzzz]

@BritishTwits

back in 08, and before that, most digital video cameras actually stored the footage on video tapes, i.e. the name DV, instead of hard drives or flash.

[MestizoFilipino]

Yup, all stuff I know about already. So I guess this was pointless to watch since all I need now is to get older, an find a job. (to be broad.)

[convexity123]

A worthless video.  Spend your two minutes watching something else.

[joelgallagher12]

this girl talks to fast

[ebayredux]

Good advice.

[ThisisPunk]

hey what the FUCK is the advertisements for? What happened to just having people's videos on youtube, without all the shit popping up and manipulating it?

[adult456zig]

/facepalm

look up youtube partners

[Wallythehugepeguinda]

The site's gotta be paid for somehow. Instead of money we pay with extra time.

[diztorcion666]

@ThisisPunk capitalism happen i love capitalism but hate the adds

[pointsofhonesty]

@ThisisPunk  COPY THAT!

[AquariaSpirit]

@ThisisPunk YouTube is a business. When you get down to the bottom of things it only exists to make money.

[Sullysaccount]

@ThisisPunk Its people who are partners on youtube can put advertisments into there videos to earn money. It's what makes youtube free so I'd stop moaning unless you want to pay to watch youtube videos.
