Coremelt Track X Area Replacement
มุมมอง 3816 ปีที่แล้ว
How to replace part of the frame to save or improve a shot, with motion tracking. Uses Coremelt Track X, FCPX, and a pinch of Photoshop. Especially useful for those confounded by Coremelt Track X (like me!).
Drone Test-San Diego Coastline-DJI Mavic Pro
มุมมอง 806 ปีที่แล้ว
Shot on a brief trip to San Diego, this was my first real test of this drone, the DJI Mavic Pro. As a flying machine, it's amazingly smart-at one point I accidentally told it to land in the ocean and thankfully, it refused. As for the camera, well, different story. It takes some drone-whispering if you want professional grade images. For example, in the wide shot of the coastline, notice the mu...

FCPX Tutorial 01 Format Your Drive & Set Up
Does the production accountant breakdown the script? You said director assistant is it the same thing?
Script breakdowns may be done by various people, such as the first assistant director, a production manager or a production coordinator. On an indie film, the producer may even do it. However, breakdowns are not done by an accountant (though an accountant may help budget the film if it's a studio production).
@@cinemanium1469 thank you so much!🫡
The man's shoulder is not forest but great breakdown though!
This was such a great video !
Wonderful. Thanks.
Awesome! Quick question, if my script says "puts on a pair of shoes" where should I put the shoes? Is it in props? Or wardrobe? Thanks
In that case, it's both a prop and wardrobe item. Write "shoes" in both department boxes as a reminder to all that those departments need to coordinate with each other about the shoes.
Thank you so much for this practical explanation. I am currently reading a book on producing short films, and I came across the concept of scene measuring, which was a bit difficult to understand without a visual explanation. I had a proper understanding through your video
Man if only i had Patrick's ring
you sound like steve carrel
man wtf. im returning to this video cuz they showed this in class and why was i the only one @ 4:12 who busted out laughing.i imagined the expense
loved this thank you help full
5 scenes. You missed one @.45 EXT. GREENBOW ALABAMA appears again @1:17
Thank You.
Hey, I see you're just using a red pen...often colors inks (or outline shapes) are listed for each element, are you using the red pen for simplicity sake...does the industry not really use the colors and outlines when breaking down a script?
Used red for purposes of demonstration. Many line producers have their own methods and use different colors for different categories. In the old, old days of black and white Xerox copies, colors didn't read, so line producers used varying marking styles (boxing, underlining, starring, etc.)
@@cinemanium1469 So, basically it's "players" choice. Thanks, great videos!
Hey, on page three you missed a Slugline (EXT. GREENBOM, ALABAMA), was that intentional or an oversight? Thanks for the video, I sub'd 1 min in, great video.
Yes-and if you caught my error, then you've got the hang of it!
can you make more of these? this was such a fun listening experience!!! greetings from Germany! <3
Short and simple, thank you so much for the explanation.
Thank you, but why is it lined? What it for? Pretty important
This was very good.
Thank you so, so much for posting this video! I am in film school currently and my teacher expects us to know everything about the industry and would not explain how to do this when the page is almost 9/8ths long! You were so clear and concise this is so incredibly helpful!
One question, why break the page into eights? Is it for timing? What is measuring the length applicable to? Why do it. Thanks.
I see the same question. I will look into it. Thanks. Cinemanium Cinemanium 2 years ago The key is in the next step, transferring this information to breakdown sheets that will go to your department heads. Watch: th-cam.com/video/AMbIdTaSXrE/w-d-xo.html
One-eighth of a page is roughly equal to one vertical inch on the page. Not sure how or why it evolved this way.
Hey! you did a great job.
Very helpful 🙏
Nice job. Still is the worst movie I've ever seen.
Thank you, this was so simple, I was too shy to ask and I'm soooo glad I found this video <3
Great stuff.
Amazing. Thank you
Great 👍🏾
how do you write the page count on the script breakdown for each scene ?
There is a space for that in the header of each breakdown sheet.
thank you
This was so helpful!
wov..exlent sir..neatly explained tq
I use an app for all this now and it makes my life a lot easier :) Gr8 video though. By the way, I think you omitted the "MAN on the bench" while highlighting the elements on the script which suggests why he didn't end up in the CAST section of the breakdown sheet as well. Just an observation.
Can you share with everyone the name of the app you used? Thanks!
@@jeffbemiss111 dramatify & studiobinder
the MAN on the bench is Forrest Gump himself ;)
Love your video. What is the song that is in the background?
Where can I find this software? Thank you!
Unfortunately, this software is obsolete. Sorry!
@@cinemanium1469 Oh, ok. Thank you!
A rule of thumb given to screenwriters is that one page is roughly a minute of screentime. The shooting team now divide that page by eight. Does filming work on units of seven and a half seconds?
7.5 seconds would be a strange unit indeed! I am not sure how or why it evolved this way, except that one-eighth of a page is roughly equal to one vertical inch on the page.
I am dyslexic. Can I use coloured paper or would that offend Hollywood?
Really helpful and useful, Mister. I am quite lax at scripting and these sheets steps. Thanks a lot.
the tutorial brings up questions 1) when does one do this? Is it for a fininal draft or at te end of eery writing session? 2) why do this who it is for? 3) why is it done by hand? The scene #s and eighths could be entered directly into thew page, right?
Joe-this is a production prep thing, not a writing thing. It's only done when a film is "greenlit" and the producers prepare the script for production. This is part of the process that converts a "spec script" into a "shooting script." And no, it doesn't have to be done by hand as in the video. There is software such as Movie Magic that can import a Final Draft script and allow the process to be done on a computer.
I'm a film student and I found this super helpful - thank you!
For the first time, that makes sense.
This is an excellent video… I love that you have a close-up on the paper that you’re talking about. I love that you’re taking this slowly and that you’re doing it it’s precisely… The only thing I don’t like is that you have background music even though it’s beautiful music is still distracting and unnecessary. All we want is to hear you talk!!! Thank you very much for making these great videos
thats to much
Hi there. Thank you for the video. It's really motivated. Could you take a look at our script breakdown service? Your opinion will be very valuable for us. th-cam.com/video/dvIXYnPcl2w/w-d-xo.html
Every one of my pages is exactly 9 inches. I have no idea if I'm formatting or printing it wrong or something.
"PAGE MARGINS. Let’s start with the margins. The top margin is one of those rigid rules: It needs to be one inch. Your bottom margin, and your right- or outside-margin can vary from that by up to a quarter-inch. Your left, or inside, margin needs to allow space for the three-hole punch binding, so that should be about one-and-a-half inches." www.finaldraft.com/learn/how-to-format-a-screenplay/
How do someone get this software??
So you are underestimating the time needed to shoot any scene that starts in the middle of a page and overestimating all that start at the beginning, just because your ruler marks inches instead of centimeters. Good job dude, you are fired.
I believe you've misunderstood. This isn't a precision measurement, it's just a broad estimate. Rounding up or down by less than 1/8 of a page is inconsequential. In any case, the A.D. will break down those page counts into set-ups when they schedule a day, which is a better indicator. Eight inches to a page is simply a general convention that evolved in Hollywood filmmaking.
@@cinemanium1469 obviously not a precise measurement but you are introducing a systematic mistake for no reason at all. You can just draw your octaves on a piece of paper and use it instead of a ruler, or just eyeball it. And one octave PER SCENE if you shoot many short ones can lead to half a page of deviation, that is an extra scene and the difference between a well executed project and a failed one.
Good information, but the guy MISSED A SCENE! I guess it might not matter, but pay attention to detail.
I'm still not understanding how this helps the breakdown process? What is it telling us? If we already know each page is roughly 1 minute of screen time, what does this formula do? I'm asking seriously, because I'd like to teach this but I'm not sure what this formula does for the breakdown process. What i'm I missing

It doesn't have to make sense, it just has to work. If you start changing things around you are going to make people think about things they have no place thinking.
This is honestly one of the best explanations I've ever seen. Good work! Can't believe there are so few subscribers. This channel is awesome
You make amazing videos!
