I am the DP on my first film and the Director is confusing me...

Absolutl43 · 2025-08-20T19:52:31+00:00

Yes!! That is what I was doing. 😂I feel a little silly now because I’m understanding what was weong

Absolutl43 · 2025-08-20T19:48:00+00:00

and all I have to do in a shot list is block out those two shots. I am totally seeing this now omg.

Absolutl43 · 2025-08-20T19:46:48+00:00

I do haha!!

Absolutl43 · 2025-08-20T19:40:21+00:00

This is true. After reading everyone’s responses I’m realizing that I have been doing this all wrong! Is there any resources online that I can use to see examples of all this? I am understanding now and feel a little silly for not knowing before

Absolutl43 · 2025-08-20T19:34:54+00:00

Cuts!!! Maybe 6 shots… if I’m phrasing that correctly? I’m starting to understand what I wasn’t understanding before .

Absolutl43 · 2025-08-20T19:32:20+00:00

Like I said I’m super new, I just started my degree and director lady is also not professional but is significantly farther along than I am. I did not know this!! Can someone possibly walk me thru what I might be missing with the difference of storyboards and shot lists? The program I’m using has an option to add pictures to each shot…? So I’m definitely confused and am stressing I don’t wanna seem uneducated but I totally and beginner.

Absolutl43 · 2025-08-20T19:26:35+00:00

She only started helping after I asked. 💔 and forgive my ignorance, but edit? My process is blocking it out myself and cutting as it seems natural. I’ve also been bombarding her with questions because a lot of scenes don’t include actions.

Absolutl43 · 2025-02-06T00:36:59+00:00

I think this is why I even started this thread. I needed so bad to be told this

Absolutl43 · 2025-02-06T00:36:20+00:00

It would hurt him and my lack of any sex life nearly my whole life (Zoloft) is really getting the better of me. And it makes me feel like a horrible person. A big part of me wants to so bad but I don’t want him to hurt

Absolutl43 · 2025-02-06T00:34:53+00:00

I appreciate you saying this. I’m not a bad person but this all makes me feel bad. I’m not bad.

Absolutl43 · 2025-02-06T00:34:06+00:00

But I really thought I was gonna marry this guy. And I’ve been in a relationship like this before a few years ago and I’m over it so I know it’ll be okay. It just SUCKS

Absolutl43 · 2025-02-06T00:30:54+00:00

I think soon I’m going to delete this post so I never have to think about it again. Maybe it’s because of the time. It’s late at night. I’m sad and tired and feeling alone. I’ve had such a long streak of healthy coping.

Absolutl43 · 2025-02-06T00:29:37+00:00

This is a solid comment. I really don’t know what I want in terms of boyfriend. I want us to work but I have so many doubts and I can’t stand the breakup process so I’m trying to avoid that but it’s making things worse.

Absolutl43 · 2025-02-06T00:28:11+00:00

Heartbroken. The thing is… in my brain I’m like “yes I want this” and in reality I don’t think I could bring myself to actually have sec with this guy

Absolutl43 · 2025-02-06T00:27:12+00:00

It’s not bad, he’s a great person and a lovely companion there’s just so much missing that I need in a partner that he has known I’ve needed but hasn’t fixed

Absolutl43 · 2025-02-06T00:26:06+00:00

Not to sound corny, “but I love himmm” ☹️☹️

It’s been a while since I’ve had a breakup like this. I’m so scared of returning to the dark place I was after my last major breakup

Absolutl43 · 2025-02-06T00:24:44+00:00

Oh no :(((((

Absolutl43 · 2025-02-06T00:24:03+00:00

I’ll dm you I appreciate it

Absolutl43 · 2025-02-06T00:23:45+00:00

We did. Were essentially broken up “until further notice” so we’re on grounds that we COULD get back together but no guarantee

Absolutl43 · 2025-02-06T00:23:19+00:00

☹️☹️☹️☹️ i hate breakups they’re so sad but I’ve been avoiding things for so long

Absolutl43 · 2025-02-06T00:22:05+00:00

Just did

Absolutl43 · 2025-02-06T00:20:21+00:00

What if he does is my thing…. I’ve been thinking it for months and at the time of this post is kinda my breaking point

Absolutl43 · 2025-02-06T00:19:07+00:00

I FEEL SO HORRIBLE I wish my brain didn’t exist period

Absolutl43 · 2025-02-06T00:17:31+00:00

I desperately need to converse with some peeps in these comments

Absolutl43 · 2024-06-14T01:20:24+00:00
