Re: IAC International Judging ...

I feel your pain Ken, as i've been there. Film making in whatever genre is an art form... and art is very subjective. Example, Empire magazine hail Eraserhead as a "5 Star Film" and a piece of "Cinema History". My view of Eraserhead is that its overly long, pompous, monotonous, a...

Re: anyone using the 5DII

What are Canon doing with the 500D?! They've basically thrown HD Recording into the 50D, less than a year after it's release, and then slapped the same price tag on it?! Plus, the 500D tag suggests to me that its in the same model range as the 300D-450D.

Seems a bizarre decision to me!

I currently use Pinnacle Studio 10Plus to edit my work as well as to create and author the DVD. My problem is that i'm having a huge issue with one of my productions in that it wont create the DVD Menus correctly. Is there any other packages out there that will just create the DVD Menu's and then au...

LIAFF

I was just wondering... and i think i've asked this once before, does anyone have the details of previous IAC Film Festivals? I was just looking at the BIAFF page on the website and it details some of the festivals back to 1999. Is there any plans to continue uploading the details of past festivals?...

My Dad used to show me his Cine films, but it was the one he called Fairies that caught my imagination. I persuaded my dad to buy some film an...
