Doug Honorof on Dialect Coaching
By: Bob Gillen on Sep 6, 2012 at 10:36:59 am
We talked to linguist and dialect coach Doug Honorof about the use of accents and dialects in film. Honorof coaches actors and performers for film and television, commercials, voiceovers, and broadcast journalism. Illusionists Extraordinaire When it comes to the use of foreign language in an American film, Honorof says, “Actors do not need a language teacher at all. They are not learning a foreign language; they are just creating the illusion that they have learned one. What they need is an illusionist. Dialect coaches are illusionists extraordinaire.” He goes on to say, “With accents of English, when time permits, I...

Embracing Failure - My First Feature (The Impersonators)
By: Kylee Wall on Sep 6, 2012 at 9:17:42 am
This is an on-going post-production diary I'm keeping while I cut my first feature, The Impersonators , an indie comedy. Before the failure, a success: the first teaser trailer was released a couple days ago: And now the rest. As I moved through the motions of being my own assistant, I hit my first point of utter frustration. Not even a clip in the bin yet and hair was threatening to be pulled out. I wasn't exactly punching walls, but it was irritating me exponentially. For the purpose of hopefully offering someone some insight on this, I'll remind you I'm...

But after just spending the last hour crafting a very technical, detailed reply to a query by a persistent forum member on another website ( I would normally substitute a more pithy phrase for "persistent", but this is a public forum, after all!) After it was all finished and posted, I get a short note from him saying, "I don't have the time to read this long-winded answer "- and then asked me the same question I just spent...

Shooting with the Lensskirt
By: Richard Harrington on Sep 5, 2012 at 10:31:00 pm
I recently had the chance to shoot some stills and time-lapse from the City Center in Las Vegas. To make shooting through the double glass windows easier we used Lenskirts . The LENSKIRT is a portable, flexible hood which you attach to the end of your camera lens. It allows you to shoot pictures / video through glass without internal environmental reflections such as yourself, room lights, camera flashes, light leak from under a door. Here we are all setup (shooting with my friend Scott Bourne and my assistant Pamela Ann Berry ). The resulting view was great. The above...

How to Change the Color of Multiple Text Clips in Final Cut Pro 7
By: Kylee Wall on Sep 4, 2012 at 9:29:59 am
I'm currently working on a training video with a lot of text clips in the FCP7 sequence and I needed to change the color of all of them. After a quick Google search to make sure there wasn't some elegant and quick way to do this since you can't copy and paste text color attributes in FCP7 (at least with FCP7's text, I didn't test the others like Boris because I didn't use them), I figured I'd write up a quick guide in case anyone is looking. This is pretty simple once you know what you're looking for, but it...

Learning to Walk Again - My First Feature (The Impersonators)

Post officially began the day before the production wrapped, which also means my sleep schedule has officially switched from iffy to erratic. Perhaps the toughest thing about having a creative side project for me is that I tend to work best on these things very late at night. That doesn't really mesh well with a day job you have to get up in the 5AM hour, but sleep is for the weak. That being said, prying yourself away so that everything else in life doesn't suffer is easier said that done. As I said in the first post, I chose...

Using the iPad as a Teleprompter - [Review]
By: Kylee Wall on Aug 31, 2012 at 9:52:59 am
We may not have flying cars or a Mars colony, but dammit, we live in the future and we have iPads. And all of us in media production have used iPads in our workflow at this point, whether it's previewing something or used as a slate, or just a game device during renders. How about a teleprompter? It's actually pretty nifty. Last year, the company I work for researched and purchased a teleprompter setup built for an iPad from Prompter People . Basically, it's the reflective bit and iPad holder that fits on a camera and tripod. It can accommodate...

Using Auto-Levels
By: Richard Harrington on Aug 30, 2012 at 11:56:00 am
When working with the Levels adjustment layer, you may have noticed the Auto button. This command button triggers an analysis of the histogram data by Photoshop that is then used to modify the individual controls of the Levels adjustment. In many cases this results in an image that is properly adjusted for color balance and exposure issues. In others it will get you closer to a corrected image. 1. Add a Levels adjustment layer by clicking the Levels icon in the Adjustments panel. 2. Click the Auto button to perform an automated adjustment for the image. The image s levels...

Mastering Levels Adjustments
By: Richard Harrington on Aug 28, 2012 at 11:56:00 am
The Levels command corrects tonal ranges and color balance issues. With this command you can fix poor exposure. Additionally, you can perform color correction by manually identifying a white point and black point in the image. Nearly every image can benefit from making a Levels adjustment. To understand Levels, you must be able to read a histogram. This graph works as a visual guide for adjusting the image. The Levels adjustment has its own histogram that is visible when working in the Adjustments panel. You may also want to call up the Histogram panel (Window > Histogram) and leave it...

How to Approach Color Correction
By: Richard Harrington on Aug 26, 2012 at 11:51:00 am
New users often have a difficult time when color correcting or enhancing images. They generally lose sight of the goal: making the image look better while still being believable. Many users go too far in their quest to fix images. If the image starts to look fake or too altered, it will be distracting. Although getting it right requires some practice, here s some general advice to get you started: Identify what s wrong. Before you can fix a picture, be sure you have decided on what s wrong. Is it too dark? Is the sky washed out? Has the...
