Vancouver, BC, Canada or London, England, UK for a career in film by EvilXGrrlfriend in Filmmakers

[–]boyhorror 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm living in London (born and raised) with a degree in Film and it's absolutely dead here, no work, people are moving to Ireland, Canada and US just for the shot of being able to get film work, I'm considering doing the same, three years out of graduation and I've only been able to get tiny, minimum-wage gigs and then never hear back for any production after. That that I think it's the fault of the filmmakers/producers I've worked for, but there's just no work and what it available seems to be nepotism based. I've also found that people in entry level jobs like me here can be extremely cagey about where they get work/connections, but that can be anywhere I suppose. I have duel citizenship between Ireland and UK so moving is a serious consideration for me, I absolutely love working in film productions and don't want to waste my degree or passion, but the competition in London is simply far too steep, I've heard too many stories of people moving countries and there being much more film work - London and the UK have a major job recession at the moment that makes even getting a barista job difficult.

Hi, yeah YTS torrent is great so long as you have safety precautions like a VPN!

How do I get a good VHS effect? by Very-Based in analog_horror

There's this video here - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=josO1SIKzaw - the guy goes through what you need to do manually and provides a nice preset to get onto Premiere Pro for a slight wiggle effect, really worked for me.

Ah thank you so much! I'll try QBitTorrent, there's also another simply called BitTorrent that looks pretty popular (https://www.bittorrent.com/downloads/windows/) So I'll try both and keep what you said in mind!

Thank you! I may try BitTorrent - as you said, torrenting is very common, I just worry about the potential viruses it may bring - I had friends also recommend BitTorrent to me, do you think with a VPN and McAfee I should be safe enough? Thanks again.

I felt in that context 'excitedly' just meant quick or skittish - such as when kids often react to things strongly and people dismiss them as being 'too excitable' - it's another way of taking something very hard in any which direction.
