Daughter's First Video Editing from charliesteadman on Vimeo
| I came home from work today and found this clip in an email from my 8yr old daughter. She figured out how to use Windows Movie Maker on her own this afternoon after school and made this movie. Can you believe that? I use Premiere and have never shown her how to use Windows Movie Maker. Still can't believe... |

Here's a reblog from the Channel Frederator Blog that nudges up to Indy Moguldum:

Tonight I went to see
"Surf's Up". I went in trying not to expect much, since I felt disappointed after getting my hopes up with
"Open Season".
"Surf's Up" is nothing short of amazing. I was skeptical of the documentary filmmaking style, but it totally works. The story flows as...

I have been a big fan of Galacticast long before Backyard FX was a glimmer in my eye. So it was a huge honor when Rudy and Casey asked me to help give a presentation with them at this years Pixelodeon. All I had to do was promise to provide Galacticast with an unlimited supply of zombie make-up. Well worth it in my opinion.
Rudy and I gave a crash course on cheap, D.I.Y....

Weird, weird, weird. From the 'Doctor Who' 80s style intro text, this cinematic weird-de-force fascinates and confuses. For starters, why are they speaking in robot voices? And what sort of world...

As many of you probably know, we were lucky enough to be featured on YouTube's front page this past week. The absolute swarm of insightful comments, questions, and love was nothing short of magical. It's fantastic to know that people are responding to the uber-indie DIY mentality that makes this new wave of filmmaking so fun.
In the upcoming episodes we'll be making a special point to be...

I, Brett Dougherty, have long argued that if there were zombies, there would be world peace.
I know, a bold and seemingly asinine statement, but hear me out for a hot second. Zombies, the walking dead, would force us to join together under a single cause - to save our own asses. We would have to unite and kill what is already dead, burn what cannot feel pain, decapitate all...

It’s becoming quite normal for On The Lot to change it’s style at the snap of someone’s fingers. In this case, those fingers belong to Fox, and the reason for snapping is terrible ratings. Yes, the hottest show of the summer (according to promotional snippets) isn’t all that hot.
Then again, who said changes were bad? Well, in this case, they are. Instead of taking the two night...
