This week's winner was "Man in the Basement" by Ritchie Steven Filippi. I thought it was very creepy, and he did some really neat things with it.
You guys continue to create really amazing stuff, and it's always a pleasure to watch the submissions, but as i've said before, I can't do 5 Minute Movie House WITHOUT YOU, so please keep submitting your videos and works here at the 5 Minute Movie House Thread.

So you want to stalk your enemies in the dark, striking out of the shadows, your wrath boiling out of the end of a surpressed pistol like a furious cobra, silent, quick, and deadly? Well that's up to you to figure out how to do that (or just check back on Erik's Ninja Tutorial for some extra tips) , but I can sure help make you LOOK like you can with your very own Night Vision Goggles!
Get a pair of plastic safety goggles, I got these at the hardware store for about 3 dollars.
I got a toliet paper roll again, and I cut it a little under 3 inches.
I got this little keychain flashlight, for a few dollars, also at the hardware store.
I have some big news. Yours truly, Erik Beck has been nominated for the HOTTEST MALE WEB HOST. Now I've discussed this with Steve and both of us think that Erik is hot and should win this hands down. But it's not up to us. It's up to YOUR VOTES. It only takes a minute to vote for Erik on Tv Week's website.
And if you've already voted for Erik in round 1, you can still vote again. The votes were narrowed down and it's down to 9. He's up against people like Leo Laporte (who is currently winning), Kevin Rose from Diggnation, Jeff MacPherson from Tiki Bar Tv, David Price from The Middle Show and a few more.
So do us a favor, do yourself a favor, do Steve a favor and VOTE FOR ERIK BECK!!!!!! Voting ends at 2pm PST...

This was a great week, i've been loving the great videos you guys submit, and I realize how much potential some Mogulers have, and it's really astounding how far a lot of you have come, keep up the good work, and keep up the great submissions. Stop by the 5 Minute Movie House thread and submit your videos, and next week you might be up here.
The winner this week is Jonathan Franklin, with his short "Tungsten". It was very creepy, and I thought it was a great idea, very simple and wonderfully shot, looking forward to more from Jon in the future most definitely.

So you made your Ninja Costume, but you wanted something extra that is definitely a Ninja staple, The Retractable Hidden Blade. Well fear not, because today, i'm going to show you how to make one from odd's and end's for almost nothing!
First, start out with some foam board, and almost exactly like a scaled down Sword Tutorial, make a blade. I sketched out a kind of long skinny blade, but you can do different shapes, or longer or shorter blades, but I sketched mine out, then cut it out with my X-Acto and a ruler, any straight edge will do so you get nice clean cuts.
I painted it with a layer of silver acrylic paint, and compressed the edges to make it look more like...
As of recently, there are 3 things that really excite us here at Indy Mogul. And yeah, you might be thinking "Zombies, Dancing, and Filmmaking" and although this is very true; our latest love is for the work of California-based Three Legged Legs. The group was started in 2005 by Greg Gunn, Casey Hunt and Reza Rasoli.
Combining art, professional production, and Internet culture; their latest project, “Piece of Me, Piece of You”, exemplifies the collaborative and sharing attitude of Zune Arts, who commissioned the video. It’s an optimistic look at spreading zombie rage…or zombie love, rather, through the use of puppets. Fellow Zune contributors and musical duo, Chromeo, delivered the eFunk necessary for the zombie puppets to...
Another fantastic week of submissions, and another tough decision. This week I chose Ben Eades short film "A Broken Promise". I thought it was very emotional and had some great special effects in it.
