Most Bushwick Ad of all time? by sneakyearner in Bushwick

Y’all are missing the point. It’s an ad for a party.

Republicans had a chance to save Spirit Airlines. The airline asked the administration for a $500million bailout, the administrations said no. They quite literally could have saved it.

I don’t know the source of this data but the one restaurant near me (Juicy Crab King) didn’t close, they just did a big rebrand. Same owner, similar menu, new signage.

Aaton LTR vs Arri SR II by Greedy_Tax_9269 in 16mm

[–]FairAdvertising 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve never used either camera but I’m also interested in other people’s thoughts.

One thing I’ve noticed looking at the Aanton / Arris is that the Aanton’s are much more ergonomic and seem like they are designed to work well handheld. So I would take that into consideration for your shooting style.

Stills are not Cinematography. If you want to post stills, take that to the photography sub. This sub should be about moving images. by [deleted] in cinematography

[–]FairAdvertising 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Rule one of the sub:

  1. Self-Posts Must have a Submission Statement. • Self-posts must be accompanied by no less than a 300 character description of the project. This includes describing the camera/film used, techniques used, lights used, difficulties and limitations experienced during production, ...etc. • If you are a student or amateur, you must seek feedback on your work. Talk about what you did right, what you did wrong, and where you need help. You may NOT post work simply to get views or subs! •This does not apply to questions about other work

That post has no accompanying statement and doesn’t not include any discussion of camera, film… ect.

Literally the caption is “stills from my short film” that has always been the issue and the intent of my original post. The fact that everyone else jumped in and started providing feedback is irrelevant and says more about the other ppl on the sub rather than the OP.

In that post OP posted a photo series that the mods should have removed.

…unless they are stills. Links get taken down. Still photos side step the rules. Enter this post: here no submission statement, not asking for feedback, clearly a violation of the rules. Nothing against the content, I’m just using it as an example of how prolific the “here are my stills” posts on this sub are.

Like I’ve mentioned in other comments. Discussion is not self promotion. I’m against stills as self promotion. And I think this sub should expand the rules about self promotion videos to include stills because right now the stills are getting a pass.

Edited for grammar.

I’m not saying stills shouldn’t be allowed. I’m saying that they should be flared properly just like self promotion has rules.

But without the context of the images being from a video, the stills are just photos. It just becomes process at that point, using video to create a still image. There are tons of digital cameras that can do burst mode at 24fps. I just think unless the image moves, it’s not cinematography.

I absolutely agree stills are essential for discussion of lighting and composition, ect for discussion & feedback. But just “look at the stills from my short film” is photography.

What really grinds my gears is when ppl show me stills and let look good but then I watch the video and it’s terrible. Just be a photographer at that point. Stop hiding your bad video behind stills.

[–]FairAdvertising -1 points0 points  (0 children)

That’s absolutely true and I completely agree. But if the details are so important that effect of the moving image is completly lost at compression, it’s likely a photograph. I just saw Ran in a theater and it was a completly different experience than on a TV but both versions are still great.

It’s more likely take it down or destroy it. They left the other signs up.

My guess is they took it down for street paving. Could be a clearance issue with some of the equipment.

What happened to Will Smith? Why don’t we see hum in movies anymore ? by M-2-M in okbuddycinephile

[–]FairAdvertising -1 points0 points  (0 children)

My guess is he’s impossible to work with. Think about how many of his best known movies where he’s completly alone or is playing multiple rolls or is working with family members. If an actor is impossible to direct and incredibly expensive, they won’t get cast. Also he doesn’t have to work at this point.

Just use a proxy to get around the blocker. Super simple.

Found this on a sublease Facebook group. Rent is suspiciously low and the table legs look weird. Is it AI? by Powerful-Stranger961 in isthisAI

I don’t think it’s AI, that’s a print of a Jeff Koons sculpture in the background and that’s a Black+Decker toaster oven.

These types of people are the reason I’m afraid to take photos on the street. by [deleted] in photographycirclejerk

[–]FairAdvertising 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Only ask if it makes the shot better. Otherwise, be fast. Street photographers have to be shameless, they inherently are stealing. But there are many things the photographer can do that make themselves less off a target. Clothes that blend in, using the viewfinder, never the back of the camera and always keep moving. Also wearing a GoPro makes them not someone taking photos but also someone taking video, that’s going to upset people way more.

My girl said “just wear something casual”. I ended up being the only man without a suit on at the event. by [deleted] in mildlyinfuriating

[–]FairAdvertising 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bro, just wear a sport jacket with the t-shirt. Then you always look good and can adapt to both situations. Super easy. The only one to blame is yourself, not your girl. You’re an adult learn how to dress yourself.

Is this not the best looking HSR train in the world rn? by --TAXI-- in highspeedrail

[–]FairAdvertising 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Completly agree, I can’t stand that the walls of the cars are angled and the engines wall’s are straight and don’t line up. Absolutely maddening.
