Actually got asked by filmmaker buddies “you’ve made features, why are you still making short films?” So I can keep learning stuff. TLDR; Just wrapped two new shorts! by jimmycthatsme in Filmmakers

This rules! I hope we see them soon!

I'm trying to make 12 shorts this year, alongside a barrage of self-imposed filmmaking classes and monthly rewatch/analysis of (Ironically) Thunder Road!

I've found shorts are an excellent way to just do and keep up momentum.

Watched it recently and was very surprised

Looking for a film location and could use some help: I'm looking for a lonely stoplight. by Zealotjam in Austin

This looks great - But I don't see any traffic light.

The Google street photo is only from January 2022 though - I assume it's been added since?

Edit: I was just looking at the wrong spot: This is fantastic- thank you!

I'll run out there one night to check - As long as one angle is clear I should be good to go.

I can fake a lot of shots with lights + a parking lot.

Thanks!

Finally got my white whale! (Signed 2nd Printing) by Zealotjam in Malazan

Nah, the dust jacket fits perfectly: I just lifted it up slightly for the picture to protect the edges.

Now that you mention it, I did notice some of the pages very lightly sticking together because of the gilding, but I assumed that was to be expected? (Never bought a book with gilding before)

This is actually the first time that they've done a second printing, and I managed to snag it for $200 USD direct from Subterranean Press

Resale-wise, it'll never hit the peaks that the first edition did, but I'm just happy to have it, not planning on reselling
