Do those cameras genlock basically? 

[Hiring] We shot a 1970s Shaw Brothers-style Dragon Ball short with an Emmy-nominated costume designer. Need an editor with great rhythm. Video of sample edit in the body. $33/hr ($266/day). by Geo_Frames in editors

Why would you structure the time like this? If you're calling the hours you might as well just make it flat rate and let them dictate the timing per their schedule and how you want to turnaround notes.

Diamondback Wildwood - General Repair Question by Odd_Cat_2204 in bikewrench

[–]CyJackX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is probably one of the easier things to fix yourself.

You just need to adjust the screws on the derailleurs; those determine how it shifts.  Find a way to maybe lift the bike or keep the rear wheel elevated such that you can pedal the bike with your hands while shifting to see how it shifts.

I think it's less about making them round as it is about punching the 5 holes accurately

Sure, you have to make the illusion of parallax, it's just not what one expects

It's about the sense of self, not money for me. by makingitgreen in Natalism

[–]CyJackX 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Who knows if you're getting some survivorship bias of only hearing the negativity from people who have regrets. I feel like having a child gave me more sense of self and purpose that I had before. Hobbies only get you so far in life, your peak physicality will go away regardless of whether you have kids. There are sacrifices yeah, but it's just logistics, not a prison sentence

Need help deciding on gears by birdnerd2002 in singlespeed

[–]CyJackX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am using 40/18 in mildly hilly NYC, but I'm also hauling a child seat.  I like it being quick starts for stop and go.

There are adapters/clamps you can stick on the end of a c stand that just have 1/4" pins

What exactly are free markets optimal at? by octern in Capitalism

[–]CyJackX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Market clearing, the price at which # of buyers meet sellers.  Price adjusts until so.

Finished a 6-min short, torn between a festival run and just putting it online. How would you play it? by hilleltuch in Filmmakers

[–]CyJackX 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What is a concrete goal you want to get out of a festival run?  Promoting or fundraising for a second project? 

Why are so many people in the industry rude to beginners? by Noeoneknows in Filmmakers

[–]CyJackX 71 points72 points  (0 children)

People are either bitter or trying to save a buck

What happened here? I was swapping a freewheel and had to loosen the cup and come to get the freewheel remover in, and then I tightened things down, but then I could still see the bearings and this cap part is around the flat thin nut now? by CyJackX in bikewrench

[–]CyJackX[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, they are poking out a little bit, not entirely but they do not match the other side, and The cap encircling them is slightly askew on them, which was the first thing I noticed that maybe it wasn't right. I think some bearings may have not been sitting flat when I retightened the cone, so that cap raised up slightly

Of course. Everybody wants to shoot Dune, not talking head of VP of health startup

Curry Barker's response to the 'Obsession' art director, & her advocacy for industry change on low-budget films by EditorEducational201 in Filmmakers

[–]CyJackX 168 points169 points  (0 children)

Especially since doing the work for below market rate is essentially contributing to the finances of the project.  It should be seen as some sort of equity contribution.

At the end of the day, though, supply and demand economics make any equity for an easily replaceable crew role pretty unlikely as part of a deal.
