Today's Webtip: Film School
Remember RocketJump?
A group of DIY filmmakers who put together some really cool special effects shorts, ended up getting some serious deals because of it and now play with the pros? No?
Well maybe this little montage they made as a celebration of their 1 billionth view might help.
Anyway, RocketJump doesn't just make some pretty nifty videos. They have also decided to share their knowledge in the form of an online film school.
They cover it all, form screenwriting, to lighting, writing editing and postproduction.
One of their videos really jumped out at me as something that can be useful to anyone who has ever been stimied by the huge selection of silly wipe effects available in most low-end editing software.
If that manages to give one or two people who might fall for the star-swirly-crossfade-jumpcut a reason to reconsider, then they have done a world of good.
And if it makes you think you might want to to learn more about the whole process of making movies, then go to school!
