    @LastTurnFilms7 years ago Apocalyptic production design always seems like it would be so much fun to work on! 292

    @Charlie_Alpha_Lima2 years ago Never really considered having your key crew all read the script but it makes so much sense. I've been to quite a few shoots where the camera guys were all asking 'silly' questions because they had not read the script. ... 4

    @checkmyvevo7 years ago Damn my friend was planning a post-apocalyptic action short film for December, this timing was impeccable 77

    @amateurfilms81887 years ago Writing a real manual or a sacred text, is the kind of detail that properly builds a post-apocalyptic or scif-fi film. I have seen many sci-fi short films, and the ones that intrigue me the most are those with detail and/or multiple story lines that all build on each other. ... 28

    @brendanriel8887 years ago Great episode! Thanks for putting it together. Always love hearing from other people and giving them the chance to be heard through your platform. 3

    @2MuchSwag4Funzies7 years ago Tbh the uploads these past months that include these insights from other creators have been what kept me with Film Riot. They give such great and dynamic advice, and they really put you into the situations that filmmakers should be putting themselves into. ... 11

    @codycarlsonsfilms7 years ago This is probably one of the most helpful videos I have watched from you guys in a while. Film Riot is always entertaining, but I feel like pre-production is always one of the hardest humps to get over when making films and having a frame of reference to go off of makes life so much easier. Thank you guys! ... 3

    @C4Fernandez7 years ago Dude, this is perfect! I'm in pre-production of my 40 minute short after doing a few shorts so this is a big jump for me. There's so much to do, it's nice to have a breakdown video like this! 1

    @tinkersk17 years ago “Filmmaking at its core is such a collaborative art form. I have learned if you know your story well you can embrace the collaboration every step of your production and come out with a film that is better than you imagined. “ ... 1

  • @
    @jeffoffej7 years ago I have the same background and am now working more and more as a director and I’ve been doubting myself as a filmmaker. So great to hear we can make it through this. (“Because my background is professionally in post-production, I’ve had to discipline myself into getting coverage beyond the edit I have in my mind.”) ...

    @LostUtopiaFilms7 years ago The post apocalyptic short film I made was literally about a year ago from today, I did it too soon 😆 Great knowledge in this though, I love seeing Film Riot reach out to filmmakers Ive been watching on Vimeo. DEFINITELY agree with letting someone else do vfx, it takes a lot out of you when you’re a one man band. ...
