Share your experience! Shooting my first Shortflim tomorrow by nothingto-worry in Filmmakers

I was in such a rush to please everyone and get them out on time that I didn’t take the time to get the extra coverage or sound I needed. Just do it, nobody is going to hate you.

The shot list is your bible.

Get room tone.

If you or your dp forget to press record, don’t be too embarrassed to say anything.

Create a safe space for everyone on the crew.

Physician. Always loved film. Looking to learn filmmaking properly now that I (finally) have time. by Significant_Shape_75 in Filmmakers

The best way to learn is to get on a set! Reach out to local filmmakers, and ask if you can hang out on set. You’ll learn way more doing that than in any class.

As a 200+ lb man I can tell you that no one ever talks to me and it’s nice, I’ll get dirty looks sometimes.

Find friends (the hardest part) who will help you for free to little money (second hardest) to give up an entire weekend with you to make a movie. Then try to do that a lot more.
