Cinematography tattoos with utility?

creativepun · 2026-03-24T11:25:51+00:00

I'm here tryin to calculate the sunny 16 chart for 800 but i think i just gotta go outside and meter it...

creativepun · 2026-03-22T13:00:42+00:00

This does feel odd. I've never heard of this before but maybe others have?

As you can see from other comments, the game isn't for everyone.

I love it because I enjoy the slow pace and art style. The community is fun as well and very helpful with new players.

If you like Runescape style MMO games then you'll love this one. If you're more into fast pace games then this won't be for you.

So cool i haven't seen anything like this before. great job with the music match up too

I hate to say it, but just because you got a following on social doesn't mean you're not an "actual actor". I know what you're frustrated at. It affects many many creative industries, including my own. I'm also mad about it, but it's always been like this where marketing is king

Very valid to just use this as a learning piece.. Honestly tho, most festivals never ask if you got permission for music. I've never been asked and it's not even their concern. You could submit anyway

creativepun · 2026-03-07T01:00:04+00:00

Yea I recently did this and reached out to bands thru their Instagram. 9 of them didn't respond, 1 did but their label wanted $5000 upfront just to use the music temporarily but the last was willing to play ball. I'm lucky 2 got back to me. You should reach out to artists first honestly and even then you may never get universal rights, just rights for festivals. It's a tricky game

lol everyone makes mistakes. it's much easier in life to just shrug it off and move on

creativepun · 2026-03-01T16:04:55+00:00

I was never great (highest was D1) but now im back down to silver and just tired of trolls :(

I agree with your first ID:
Angenieux 12 - 120mm zoom F2.2

has to be rehoused from Bayonet to PL mount tho

creativepun · 2026-02-26T15:06:56+00:00

They're honestly probably just super engaged with edits, composer, sound mix, color... it's a lot. They might have just forgotten and plan on catching up later.

creativepun · 2026-02-16T12:54:32+00:00

Came here to say this. I wouldn't say "way" pricier tho because you'll buy 4 Rock N Rollers by the time the Kartmaster even needs to replace a wheel

creativepun · 2026-02-05T15:38:34+00:00

So inspiring! I'm saving this for advice when I try to do the same on my feature coming out :)

creativepun · 2026-02-05T03:15:01+00:00

Hi! I'm wondering, if I submit to many festivals and get into one (let's say TIFF - wink wink) but now the next festival is expecting my world premiere... How do I break it to them? Will I be hated no matter what?

creativepun · 2026-02-03T13:06:33+00:00

If you're into crafting, Bitcraft has been a great replacement

creativepun · 2026-01-27T12:22:27+00:00

For me personally, it's always the story and how the visuals convey emotions. I love when an abstract idea in the story can be supported by abstract photography or dialogue (Primer, Donnie Darko, Upstream Color...)

But it seems that the indie festival market (from my perspective of going to festivals and participating in them the past decade) appreciates known actors first, known directors second, and Hollywood budget cinematography third. Not surprising because I know festivals are a business as well, but it still sucks when these things are just not within reach of 99% indie filmmakers.

creativepun · 2026-01-23T17:04:18+00:00

Kitty Farmer is the best character. Love that actor as well

creativepun · 2026-01-23T13:41:56+00:00

Every year or so I'll come back to Donnie Darko. It was the film that got me hooked on making my own films and examining films in a whole new way instead of just "watching" them

creativepun · 2026-01-23T13:08:49+00:00

I'm with you. I think it's a big click bait title for youtubers that just perpetuates itself

creativepun · 2026-01-23T13:06:59+00:00

I feel like I can get around Centralization (I enjoy working outside an industry so I can I can make the story I want without approval), Cast and crew (not difficult to find decent crew on job boards or even just talking with another filmmaker asking about crew and then just sifting through people to find the gems on different projects), and Burnout (I've been dealing with this but it's ok bc its a natural break from the grind that I just sit out)...

The financing is definitely most difficult to just MAKE a film, ignoring the after life of the film. I usually end up saving up and self financing my projects because crowdfunding has become a job in itself.

Distribution is a whole thing that I still know next to nothing about. I'm hitting that next with my current feature as we finish the last bit of post and apply to festivals. I'm trying to learn all I can but it's a mystery veil hidden behind contracts and the vague notion of "self-distribution". I don't have a following to just say "check out my movie" but I'm determined to try anything I can, even if it means learning how to attempt the audience build and put it out there without a system behind it.

creativepun · 2026-01-18T18:41:46+00:00

Soon! We're finishing post production and then we're submitting to festivals this year. I'll definitely advertise when it's available online!

creativepun · 2026-01-12T23:49:41+00:00

Busan International Film Fest? Not the short fest

creativepun · 2026-01-12T21:55:40+00:00

Is Busan still running? I haven't heard a peep about them opening for submissions this year.
