To clarify, each film festival has it's own rules and regs on formats being snet in... but in recent times Digital has gotten so big that many independent-orientated festivals are now accepting digital entries, which includes DVD.

Without a doubt, I recommend Celtx. It's totally free and very powerful. I have used Final Draft before and to be honest, Celtx is better (in my opinion). If it doesn't cost, you should try it! www.celtx.com

If you fancy it, there's a program called SUPER which is a god-like program for video compression. It's also free.

VEGAS is a totally different kettle of fish to Movie Maker. Movie Maker is aimed at people with absolutely no experience in video editing whatsoever. Vegas is aimed at semi-pro users. If you are only editing DV footage, your PC should do the trick. Most PCs built in the last four years can...

Of course, if the scene is related to the plot then it must be described as you envision it because it is an...

Hey there fella, I'm going to be stationed in Ealing soon... I've been accepted at the Met for a two-year BA and I'm a keen filmmaker who's eager to "break out". I have all my own equipment, cameras, mics, editing gear (I use AVID Xpress Pro - god bless student discount) I have really gotten...
