Well, here's mine, from a couple of years back. It was recorded with a camcorder, totally unplanned, took a lot of editing afterwards. I only had some cheapass software, I think Windows Movie Maker was my best tool, pretty much, so expect nothing fantastic. I'm just posting it because it thought some Sopranos fans might get a kick out of it.

Basically, I was going to drive to see my grandparents in the country, and thought, what the hey, I'll tape myself driving and edit and add titles and stuff to spoof the Sopranos opening sequence. I used my own name (Salakka) instead of Sopranos, and used 'twisted' names of some of my friends. This was shot in Finland, hence the non-American scenery. I hope at least someone out there enjoys it. Again, try to ignore the crappy quality, I'm no pro - wasn't then, am not one now.

It's about 7 mb and in WMV format. You can dl it from http://www.jella.net/bin/salakkas.html. Thanks! (For some reason when I dl it, it tries to force me to save it as an AVI. WMP should play it just fine either way.)

Great news guys. I'll be making my first real movie this summer. We will have a budget of about $8000 and will be purchasing 2 HD cameras to shoot it. I'll be sure to post it here when it's completed.

It dl as an avi, but MPlayerX plays it just fine. It's really good man, I thought it was very well done.

Just an update for my summer movie. The band Whitetown is interested in possibly doing the score for the movie. Exciting stuff.

Hey tgpo, I am looking forward to see this movie you plan on making, what will it be about?

It'll be a fast paced comedy movie. I don't want to give the plot out now, because I've found if I tell everyone about it I usually won't finish it.

[Tommyknocker]

I can write a little. If you want my help, you have it.

I'm making a movie for a Wedding Reception...the bride and groom's life to date. I'm using images and video clips. Has anyone seen examples of this type of movie...I'm looking for ideas...

Thanks...

As fonoop said use interviews, and not the simple one of 'she so nice' but strange expressions, and search for pictures which put the things which are told in a funny context.
If you use pictures, try to avoid static pictures, make them not as if your watching a picturebook, but put titles on it, balloons with funny text.
And on the end put a nice climax in the movie, search for example a picture witch monkeys in a just married car.
To conclude I think it must be a movie witch a fun factor, after all it's a day full of joy (at least I hope)

Is there a way to do "bubble text" or "Balloon Text" in Premiere? I'm rather new to it, since it's more of an expensive hobby than anything. I just can't figure it out. I'm working on a video of me and my pals golfing, and I wanted to either add Bubble Text or graphics like they have on NBC during golf tournaments (filled more with comedic phrases than true scores).

I was just wondernig.

Thanks,

Hey guys: I have found that adobe premiere is so difficult to understand and use. Is there a place teaching "how to..."

[AmeliaK]

Adobe Premiere isn't the easiest application to learn, but once you get over the basics, it is pretty good. I just used the help file that came with 6.5.

Cheers
Amelia

[better life]

Thanks, I will look into Help

[AmeliaK]

For what its worth I don't know of anyone who has used adobe premiere for the first time and thought "wow that was simple". In fact most have the same reaction as you.

Most functions are in the strangest of places and to this day I'm still learning new stuff. I've been using premiere for around 4 years now.

Cheers
Amelia

[better life]

Wow, the time of 4 years is absolutely not short. My expectation was that I hoped that there is a "how to..." page like Newbie in Dvdhelp.com teaching using a program in a specific topic step by step.

[AmeliaK]

Stick with it, as it wont take 4 year for you to learn to edit your first movie You'll probably do you first movie within a week.

Have a look for tutorials on Google ie

and

Thank you very much. That is what I am looking for.

Well, here's my edited movie. It's a music video I made with Vegas Video 4, which I find to be the easiest and the best program to work with. I used old footage from a hard-to-find Japanese Animated movie called "Bagi" and told the story through Avril's song. I found the movie's story to be very cute. The quality might not be the best on part 2 and 3, but it's not incredibley bad. If you like it, I could post a link to the 2nd musicvideo I made.Bagi: Cold Night

[AmeliaK]

That was pretty cool

Ready for part II

[perfectchaos]

That was pretty cool

Ready for part II

Thanks ^_^
Well here's the 2nd part, then there's a final third one.

Here's part 3 ^^

Bagi Part 3: Unbroken Promise

The best site I've seen for Premier tutorials is www.wrigleyvideo.com. It's probably not the best for figuring out the real basics, but the tutorial projects help you understand the features and capabilities a whole lot better than you could otherwise teach yourself.

Oh, nevermind then. I was gonna offer to host it for a month or so, but I don't have that much space, sorry

[rgs_uk]

Just wondering, any idea how many downloads/how much bandwith used when you post a movie link on here?

[rbmerc]

how do i get my Max Stunts movie hosted so you guys can watch it?

-rbmerc

[BarteS]

Wow, has been a long time since my last visit

You can create your own website (free) @ lycos, web1000 or something like it.
Make sure you build a real site, because the hosts usually don't like it if you only use the place for storage.
About datalimit, I use lycos, and never had any problems

cya soon, I've to study again, but I'll be back 8)

[sterankin]

Have a look at the "movies" on my website

www.mofomovies.co.uk

Just meant to be fun, not serious at all - just a few guys having a laugh, with some dodgy SFX and very bad acting.

The 3 movies are:

Beer and Present Danger
Kung Fu Jedi
Hunted

There is some comic value if anything

[kickbxn5]

Here's a link to the movie we are making that is almost complete. It's called "Hand Over Fist". This is just a part of one of the fight scenes in the movie. Let me know how you like it. We almost have a deal with a distrubutor and may have it out on DVD/VHS by early next year.
