The way this works is by reversing the phase of one of the channels. Since a solo vocalist is usually dead centre of the stereo image, his/her voice is then 180 degrees out of phase on one side, so when the channels are mixed back together it disappears. Obviously it won`t work if a mono image is di...

Uploading pictures
Easy peasy! All you have to do is compress your picture in jpg so that it is quick to up/download, upload it to your OWN web space, then link to it by clicking [Img] on the menu above where you write your message. It takes a bit of planning and time, but if a job is worth doing it is worth doing well.

Firearms available!
It is very easy to get hold of de-activated firearms of ALL types for films. Is there a military history society in your area? There almost certainly is. Members of that society will have collections of weapons of every possible type, from massive trailer-mounted Howitzers to little automatic pistol...

AVI files in DVD players
It is not whether it is DVD-R or DVD+R which counts. The following conditions ALL need to be met: The player must run fast enough to collect all the data in real time; It must be able to recognize and use AVI files; The DVD must have a file system that the player can recognize and use. If all three ...

I am 62 (where do the decades go)?
The problem with film graduates and other media studies types is that they all hope to be professionals. It`s only when they get to 60 plus that it dawns on them that the call from the producer with a 10 million-pound budget is never going to come, and that they are only amateurs after all! The IAC ...

Leave to dry --- VERY IMPORTANT -- before putting a tape in again. (If you do not, the tape will stick and get chewed up). Of ...

Non-commercial film forever!
I agree with the n-c idea. The term "amateur" is widely seen as a term of abuse. Was Vincent Van Gogh an amateur? After all, he did not sell any paintings! In the arts, the term "amateur" is not used. Getting paid or not, or getting someone else to pick up the bill, is irrelevant...
