In this dog walking dilemma video
watch how the dog reacts after hearing the word "bath" and keeps
watching it's owner. I don't think the maker of the film realizes the fun
element of expression that ended up on film. It's the kind of thing that film
makers work hard to recreate and sometimes is very difficult to do. These are
the kind of scenes that can be edited together with others that are more
planned, thus creating a good story.

Review by Dr. Rashid Buttar: “Liam
Scheff’s book Official Stories could easily be turned
into 11 blockbuster movies. The book has a tasty entertaining
appeal which is only exceeded by it’s stunning educational
value. The awareness and realization that the reader will
inevitably reach as they devour and digest the material would
leave most uninitiated among us disturbed."

A very well known movie
may have the earliest recorded example of the colloquial sense of
the word
'hello'
This is claimed
to be "an insanely steady
camera image stabilizer". Looks great, but when I look at
it I notice that it's not being demonstrated in the up and down
motion. It shows left/right and back and forth but real filming
challenges have more motions than that, all happening at once. A
better demonstration would show all movements that someone would
be actually doing while filming while running, walking, and
following an actor or the action, and then providing the film to
prove it's ability. I also wonder if this unit has a dampner. I
don't know who makes this item. Thread
found here. You can also see this same demonstration on cats
so maybe you can hook up a camera to a cat instead and have the
same effect. Or if you are on a farm, use a chicken. Or an owl. Here's the kind of
demonstration I'd like to see with a camera on a chicken. And
here's one that clearly demonstrated that a chicken
would work much better.

Here's an example of
great cinematography from 1944. It comes from the color movie
"Solid Potato Salad" with the Ross Sisters featuring
some A-MAZING flexibility. See a 4 minute clip with music here.
An 8k digital
scan of "Lawrence of Arabia" showed so much detail you
could see the film where it cracked due to the harsh desert heat. soundandvision.com
OPINION: Why on earth
did they make Nebraska a black & white movie? It's like Blair
Witch all over again. Blair
Witch destroyed TV and movies. People hated the camera shake, said
it made them sick but it was used as a base for the entire plot.
For some reason it caught on, became the norm, and now it's in half of every moving image,
from commercials, to shows, to movies. Camera shake
works only at certain times with certain rare scenes. Today about
90% of camera shake, and quick zoom, is annoying, nauseating, and
takes away from the product. I can't stand the show "The
Office" as it's inundated with this stupid technique. I think
that someday when I become famous I will sit in an
interview and shake to mimic this, so the camera doesn't have to just to see the
look on their faces.
Riverside county in
California is waiving film permit fees in order to keep and
attract film making in areas like Palm Springs. Hotel transient
occupancy taxes are also waived for hotel stays for film crews. Read
