you're welcome. is true..
You might think this is strange ( I know I do ).. but the other day I was working on " unforgettable" ( the tv series ) as a 2nd unit dolly grip.  Just the one day of employment ( to burn some doorway keyed against black background ).
So we had a crane and 20x20 foot black over the " set " ( we were outside in a giant parking lot of steiner studios) and blacks ( 20x20 and 12x 20 etc ) around the sides...and at one point ( since this is a cop show ) I asked someone.... " when in gawds name are we gonna stop making all these freakin cop shows ! ?? "
And the answer was..." when people stop watching them "
simple.

  • CS6 keeps crashing.  Film Festival doco due in 1 week.  Help!

    CS6 keeps crashing.  Worked fine for a year. It's unlinking files - in fact unlinked the entire timeline for a documentary due to show at a film festival in one week.  Help!  We transferred all the files to a new computer with a new drive and new version of premiere, but it still keeps crashing..  It's telling us "Sorry a serious error has occurred that requires Adobe Premiere Pro to shut down.  We will attempt to save your current project." Then it tells us "Adobe Premiere has stopped working.  Cose the program and check for a solution online." 
    We're thinking that we have a corrupt fil, but how do we identify a corrupt file?

    If this is Windows (the information you should provide http://forums.adobe.com/message/4200840 when asking a question) you MAY have an outdated graphics adapter driver due to a Windows update that has changed "something" in one or more DLL files
    As well as the information in the link I provided, what is your brand/model graphics adapter (ATI or nVidia or ???) and the driver version?

    You should have arranged return of the damaged replacement to begin with right then.  Too late for that though. At this point, you can buy a used phone on Swappa.com or elsewhere that is compatible to Verizon or buy full retail.  I don't they will let you Early Edge right now being so close to having just upgraded.

    Hello, thanks for replying.
    Yes they just copy to the next page, the fields are the same. The document is an observation to school lessons so it needs to be consistent but with different data on.

  • Do I need FC/e for Film Festival Submission?

    Or could I get by with iMovie, say 11, 09, or my old HD?
    Will I be able to submit a sufficiently high def version using iMovie 11? Or will the degradation be too much, supposing that I edit in iMovie, then burn to DVD with iDVD.
    The film will be about 7 minutes and shot with Panasonic GH1 and a Go Pro in HD. There may be slow motion and a mix of ambient sound, voice, and music.
    It'll be entirely shot outdoors under somewhat nasty conditions. Meaning no lights, usually no tripod.
    The reason I mention these latter points is that perhaps the quality of what I bring back (shaky, low light) might be the limiting factor and not the image degradation.
    I have made many iMovies for YouTube, but would like to go bigger, so to speak, in quality of video, not necessarily length.
    Would I benefit from going to Final Cut Express? Or stick with iMovie?

    Yes, Banff Mtn Film Festival:
    Here's what they ask (don't actually understand all the requirements, yet)
    TECHNICAL REQUIREMENTS
    For purposes of pre-selection, judging and festival screening, all

    Digital Betacam 625 and Betacam SP PAL/SECAM will
    not be accepted. Due to reproduction issues, MiniDV
    format is LEAST preferred.
    c) Film entries must be 35mm or 16mm with OPTICAL or
    MAGNETIC sound (no double band).
    d) Production attributes should conform to typical broadcast

  • Hello. I went to Tools, Plug-ins and check for updates as I do once a week, every week, and yet now, after checking, Firefox says 'no plug-ins detected'. My plug-ins are still all there in Tools, Add-ons, so why am I getting this message?

    I check my plug-is for updates once a week, yet as of today, despite the fact that my plug-ins are all still there in Tools, plug-ins, after I click on the find updates button, I get the usual screen that tells me Firefox is checking for updates to my plug-ins, but then I get the message saying 'No plug-ins detected.' This has never happened before and it means I can't check for updates to my plug-ins.

    There is a fault with the plugin check service, Mozilla are looking into it.

  • H.264 for film festival

    Hi. My film has been lucky enough to have been accepted into a film festival and the festival director would like an HD h.264 version for the screening. I have to send it so I made a 720p version because a 1080 version would be almost 8gigs and a 720 version would only be 1.5gb(he said 720 would be fine).  My question is, going under the h.264 in export, I chose HDTV 720p 24fps since that seemed to be the highest quality choice under the h.264s.My main question is, do you think this is the right one to choose? His email said as long as the data rate is under 15mbps, looking at it, it's data rate is 5972kbps, so I think I'm cool, although I'm now questioning whether this is actually too low. In the end, I'd just like to know if this was the right choice to make in terms of export. Sorry for the question, I'm just a little nervous because it's all on me for whether the film shows correctly at the festival.

    I have to send it so I made a 720p version because a 1080 version would be almost 8gigs and a 720 version would only be 1.5gb(he said 720 would be fine).
    Do you not have a delivery method for an 8GB 1080 file?
    If you do, I would send 1080 even if he says 720 is fine.
    He did not specify a file size limit, correct?
    His email said as long as the data rate is under 15mbps, looking at it, it's data rate is 5972kbps...
    I would max out the bitrate to the level he specified.

  • Never once has my phone updated without deleting everything. It says "iTunes has detected an iPhone in recovery mode. You must restore this iPhone before it can be used with iTunes. I can't call for help because my phone is frozen on the screen with iTune

    Never once has my phone updated without deleting everything. It says "iTunes has detected an iPhone in recovery mode. You must restore this iPhone before it can be used with iTunes. I can't call for help because my phone is frozen on the screen with iTunes. On line live chat won't chat until I give them my serial number which I can't get to because its frozen and can't call for the same reason!!  Omg!  Someone please help me!?

    Morning AppleHlumamkhululi,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    In most cases, the connected iPod needs to be restored.

  • Call for past 2 weeks.

    How do I find calls/numbers for past 2 weeks of usage. I can find the calls that were listed on my last bill but I need more recent information due to a non-functioning phone.

        Hi community!
    When you first login to My Verizon (www.vzw.com) you will need to make sure to login with the "Account Owner" registered number for the site. On the main page that loads after login, you will see "Usage Details" under the section it displays the number of minutes, messages and data. Click that link and you will see graphs for all the different usage sections. Click "View Detail" under minutes and the calls for the current cycle will load. I'm confident everyone will succeed in viewing these calls.
    Thank you,

  • Any chance of success using iMovie for Film Festival Submission?

  • DVD for Film Festival Screening & Blu-Ray Question

    Hey Everyone,
    I just wanted to double check something.
    I have been making DVD's with DVD Studio Pro for a short film shot on HDV --  23.98 and they look great.  I chose the "Best Quality" output, etc. etc.  This project is going to be screening in a small film festival and they are going to project off of a DVD.  I did a test screening in a theater classroom on a big screen and it looked fine.
    I wanted to check in and see if anyone thinks there is a better output option for this.  I don't have a Blu-Ray Burner at this time.
    Also, I plan on getting a Blu-Ray burner in the future.  I hear Lacie is the way to go?  Any other suggestions, and/or links to other burners highly recommended.  Also, do you need Toast to burn Blu-Ray?
    Thanks for your input!
    - Eric

    You might be able to play a true HD file from your computer, you don't need the BD. But you must test the display output from your card to the projector in advance to know you've got what it takes to connect the two and if the projector is even capable of showing 1080. Most are not.
    It is highly unlikely a festival will require BD submissions, too much hassle for them and for the participants.

  • Bruning to proper format for film festival

    I am finally ready to submit my documetnary to the Berlin International Film Festival. Below are the specs they require.
    Can I do this easily in FC Studio 2?
    Would the DVD be easier then the ProRES?
    My timeline is 59.94 FPS and they require 29.97. Does that automaticall happen during the DVD production?
    I appreciate your help.

    OK, thanks, ProRes it is.
    So to convert my project, I can export right in FC Studio. Export> Quicktime movie conversion> Quicktime movie> Options> Apple ProRes422?
    This is being sent to Germany so the specs have to be correct for the hard drive.
    If I want to send it to other festivals, who accept only DVD, how would I export to DVD from FC Studio 2?

  • Adobe Updater flashes a message on my screen once a week that says "No Internet connection. Please check your Internet settings and/or firewall. Waiting for connection..." Everything else works perfectly on my Internet connection.

    Adobe Updater flashes a message on my screen once a week that says "No Internet connection. Please check your Internet settings and/or firewall. Waiting for connection..." Everything else works perfectly on my Internet connection.

    I'm experiencing a similar problem.
    I have a MacBook Pro Late 2011.  I was using Lion (not Mountain Lion) with CS3 with no problems.  Recently I installed a new hard drive in my computer and used Time Machine to transfer all my files and settings (still with Lion; I did not try to open any Adobe applications at this point).  Then I udpated to Mavericks.  Upon trying to open one of the Adobe applications, it told me I needed to reinstall CS3.  I inserted the original disc and followed the instructions on the ReadMe file.  I went to Applications > Utilities > Adobe Installers > Add or Remove Adobe Creative Suite 3 Design Premium.  I did a reinstall, and at the end, it said that some of the components failed to install (see screenshot):
    I did a partial install (not all CS3 applications), so there could have been more errors than this if all applications were installed.  The applications themselves appear to work fine, but when I try to run the updater, it tells me I have no internet connection.

    Acrobat updater works just fine [after I install the manual updates till 9.2.0].
    Can you tell me where to find these manual updates?  I looked on this page:
    http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/collection.jsp?collID=1&platform=Macintosh
    but I don't see 9.2.0 for any of the CS3 applications.
    The CS3 that I purchased (Design Premium) came with Adobe Acrobat 8.  I tried to manually install the 8.1.1 update.  It said, "Please choose the copy of Adobe Acrobat Professional to update", but the application is grayed out (see below).  I did not try to install any other manual updates, yet.
    I'm not sure what to do here besides use my CS3 applications the way they are without updating them ever.  (I would rather not subscribe to the Creative Cloud.)  Any help will be appreciated.  I might try doing a complete unintall followed by a fresh install.

  • I am traveling to Europe next week - what are dialing instructions for calling US vs calling around Europe?

    I am traveling to Europe next week - what are dialing instructions for calling US vs calling around Europe?

    +1 for the USA
    +XX for the whole of Europe (Replace XX with the country code you're visiting)
    What countries are you going to?
    With Dial assist, it should understand if you dial a local number in whichever countries you're visiting.
    For example of what local ones will look like:
    05573/23441
    03 02 33 55 22
    If you want to dial with the country code, you can drop the 0 that leads off pretty much all european numbers. (the 0 in parentheses)
    For example, you see a number like this: +44 (0)7725 100 100
    You can either dial +44 7725 100 100 or 07725 100 100 if you have a UK SIM card.
    But it all depends on the home country your SIM card is from which will determine how well local dialing works without using the country code.
    If you're travelling to multiple countries, you will recieve an SMS from the network telling you the roaming rates.
    Also, I can recommend you to get the Magicjack app, it's free to download and will let you call any phone in the USA and Canda across any data connection (3G/Wifi) Free and unlimited too!

    Purchase a couple of these when they go on sale.
    Start burning all the photos onto DVDs. 
    At least you'll have all your photos if your computer, time machine or any other backup you use goes bonkers.
