I broke some down on a blog posts here - 4 reasons why the film industry is not as doomed as you think it is -

We are definitely over saturated...
I am going off BFI statistics - low and no budget filmmaking is decreasing. There was a peak of low budget films in 2008-2010 brought on by dslr filmmaking and crowdfunding - however since 2010 low budget filmmaking is falling and will carry on falling. Which is good news for serious filmmakers...
watched the prestige for the first time last night and loved it. I am hoping to watch some good films soon, in mute so I can study the camera movement.
Lots of places to look - unfortunately this is an old list - searching on twitter has worked for me before

Do you have to show the actual actor painting? perhaps a get an actual artists stand in and paint from behind. Or maybe you could record the oil painting montage separate and mask it in on After Effects. I think it all relies on what shots you use.

I agree with Shawheen. Film makers now have more options, such as 3D, film is just another tool to be used in film making. 'The Artist 'for example was silent black and white film. I can see silent cinema making a come back.

Hi,
I've taken up photography as part of my University course in film making. I'm hoping that it will give me more of an insight into lenses and shooting on film (which I hope to do some day but can't afford to now). I've attached my photos to this link:

Looking forward to it

Looking forward to it Doc, especially the bit about the mistakes,) there seems to be a lot of film maker blogs out there that don't mention the bad bits of film making (and the mistakes they make) in the fear it'll make them look less...
It's not about the editing software its about the editors vision. There's no 'specific' editing software that you 'should' use. If you can cut and stick the footage together that's all you need. I think companies who insist that you 'must' use final cut miss the point, the quality of an editors...
Send an email to film schools/ university's which study film/documentary about your project and you might find an interest there.
All the best,
Amy

Its OK, everyone is self conscious and most actors are completely embarrassed about acting when they do it. In time things will get easier, but you have to start somewhere - so throw yourself in to the deep end, id say that you should try auditioning and acting in student...

Hello, I'm pretty sure that all DVDs can be copied at least if someone really wanted to do it they could. If I was you I would but it online - on Vimeo for example; password protect it and make sure that the options for your film are set for unable to download...
Hi Tyler,
Your right about the script. If someone has handed the screenplay over directly for you to produce then surely they want you to direct it? Some writers want to direct too but I think most people start out with the writing directing dream then choose one or the other. I'd contact the...
Hi Tyler,
Sounds like you Haven't got the best of crews. I think that the most important part (and also the hardest part) of film making is to find people who you can work with. Your producer had no right to fire the actors without talking to you first. Although perhaps it was for the best.
I...
Just try and make it work. Problems come all the time with filmmaking but always the show must go on (unless you really do believe that the end result will be worthless,). Always do auditions when casting and when you do audition them film them as well that way you can see if there face works on...
Sure thing I'd love to have a read. I'll send you my script for a short stop frama animated project I've just written.

Hello, my names Amy I’m a 21 year old filmmaker from the UK, I hope I can help you out.
There’s no clear path in becoming a film director that is to say that everyone has their own unique path. The best way to learn is by doing, so I’d say write a script, find a camera and get some people...
