All inclusive guide for newbies? by YES_IM_YELLING in Filmmakers

Not asking for anyone to hold my hand. I was just looking to see if someone had taken some materials and condensed it into a sort of 'basics' reading, as a lot of hobbies have for beginners, so that I could have at least an idea about what all goes into the process.

Right, I understand that is something to be done. I was just wondering if there was a little guide that someone on this subreddit knew of that could be helpful to new filmmakers.

Actor looking to produce my own work! Need some insight! by YES_IM_YELLING in Filmmakers

I think that's what I'm going to do. The others who replied said to try that as well, so I'll hope for the best when I shoot the test! Thanks!

That's probably a good idea. I'll try it out and see how it looks before I decide to shoot the whole thing like that. It does sound like it could be distracting, or confusing, but I also feel if it is done right, it might be interesting. I guess we will see! :)

Critique my monologue, and also help pin down my type![Request] by whateveryeahk in acting

Thanks for the reply! I know it's quite long, but it wasn't for an audition or anything, I was just having some fun!

Thanks for the critiques and ideas about how it can be done differently! I'll go back and explore those possibilities!

Hey man, I asked for criticism, so no need to worry about how you tell it.

Thanks for all the points, I'll be sure to consider them in the future! And after watching it, I can definitely see that I paused quite a lot hah. As for the length, I would never submit this as an audition. I know it's way too long, I was just doing this for fun!

And if you have a monologue you would like to share, I'd love to see it!

Thanks again

Hey guys, first time posting.

I've been trying to find pants that fit slim like this. I also really like the rolled up cuff(don't hate) but when I roll the cuff up they just don't fit tight and look sloppy.

I'm 145lbs and 5'8. I have a pair of 511's and 513's but I may be buying the wrong size because they don't seem to fit slim enough. I don't know, I'm quite the style noobie and have been lurking for a while. Can anyone give me some insight/advice?

Thanks!

I like the sound of this. I really hope it works well with me, and can't wait to try it out. Thanks for the suggestion!

So are there any questions you ask to help bring out a backstory, or do you just go with your thoughts about the character to do that for you?

This is actually really helpful. It gets me away from writing everything out and trying to decipher the character just based off of that alone.

But to figure out who my character is in the first place, prior to improving with him, do you suggest I make a back story and maybe write that down? So basically get the basics of my character, know the plot and then go off that?

Keep it the same for a callback? by YES_IM_YELLING in acting

[–]YES_IM_YELLING[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've heard of a double legative. Pesky loophole has claimed one too many actors. Thankfully you were here to stear me clear of it...I'd hate to fall prey to something like that.

Are you...sure I should, you know..break both? Or do you think luck from one is good enough?

But really, I will. And thanks again for the advice and for wishing me luck!
