great!! first
yes! 2nd. indymogul is the best.

Nice show as always good job fellas.
For the first question, I'm not sure if you answered it in a different way, but a lot of cameras have an option to change the shutter speed. Usually 1/60 or 1/100 will solve the "line" problem.

i honestly was just about to upload the same question about the name indy mogul
great that this is back, not that the other things where bad.
I can't imagine Indy Mogul being named any other names, I mean "I watch Film o' Riffic" doesn't sound as AWESOME as "I watch Indy Mogul"
Movie Mcgiver was the best alternet name on the list but ind mogul was defanently the right choice
Loving the name "GORILLA GAFFER" pure skill!
I appreciated the mention but I didn't say that! I said I would keep posting the photo of SHERIFF WESLEY SCOGGINS! You didn't even show the photo :(.
Haha, alright, next time for sure :)
Indy Engineer would of worked, but I am happy with the name you picked. INDY MOGUL just fits
Hey I wanted to reply to getting footage onto a television screen. Now I imagine your real question was how do I just film it w/o the lines showing up for like vids of guitar hero or whatnot, but if you were wanting to put video on the screen and you have after effects an easy way to do it is keep your actor out of the way of the screen. Then motion track all four coners of the screen and use that tracking data to corner pin the footage you want to use onto the tv screen. :)
I like indymogul
A great, easy, but semi-pricey way to film on a TV is using a capture card-

ERIK!!! i wasn't ON!!!! I WILL HUNT YOU DOWN AND EAT YOUR CORNIA'S WITH MY SALAD!!!!!!!!!!
Killing people?Crazy!I have some ideas,but it's way out of my budget limit.
The line sync issue is caused from a shutter speed inconstancy. If you can find the shutter speed adjustment on your camera then shoot the tv and play with the settings to find the speed setting that is in sync with television.
I liked Movie McGyver the best of the alternate names.
HAPPY NEW YEAR !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!.........................................and so on

guerrilla gaffer
Oh crap I should have checked out the forums. I resolve to actually finish that fake alien tutorial I mentioned several months ago. I started it, then I ran out of green paint. And now its too cold out for the lacquer to dry.
ummm dont you think you should use a mask when spray painting?
that is the fakest british accent I've ever heard, it's more obvious than leonardo decaprio in "blood dimond"
hey are you talking to me?! go f---k urself yeah coz atleast britain invented english and then the americans go and make a stupid variation of it! oh and its not fake yeah i live in london, england so u ad better shutup yeah?!

Thanks indy mogul for that. by the way. i'm killa±kiaren±london not killa london but i spose u probabbly didnt have enough rm on the scrn. 2 of the ways i can do, one way i definitly can do and the other theoreticly. and filmoriffic sounds crap.
jeez.. did i really sound like that?! i sent that in about 2 months ago so y'know i sound a bit less like an emo know...(hopefully!) anyway thanks alot indy mogul, and also erik beck! keep up the gd work guys!!
I was woundering if you could take a look at my videos and tell me what I can do better? http://www.youtube.com/stormlinepics
Why couldn't you name the site: BFX..... i mean thats the coolest name u got... Anyways awsome work guys... When are we going to see the bullet hitting the floor effect????/
my resolution was to try all of the builds on indy mogul and yesterday, my two friends and i build two stunt dummies which will be later thrown off of apartment buildings and hit by cars. thanks indy mogul!
movie mcguyver... so much awesomeness would fry brains. i'm sure you only picked indymogul because the sheer magnitude of awesomess caused by the name movie mcguyver would wreak havoc on our puny insignificant brains...
by the way; macguyvering is a word in dutch youth vocabulary/slang. ofcoarse it means something allong the lines of "a quick fix using any item available"
i need to know how to convert original video to high definition.

Gorilla Gaffer!!!!!
what do you do if you want to shoot a high quality dark looking scene. Because it would be hard to add extra light to make it look good but you cant have light because its a dark scene... ?
First you want a camera that is good in low light. You will have to do your own research on that as my experience with different cameras is limited.
Second you would likely be better off shooting it with a little too much light then turning it down the light levels in post production. It is a lot better than turning it up in post production believe me T_T
Third if its outside you could shoot at dawn or dusk (I know shitty hours) and you would get enough light to be decent aswel as be dark enough to be realistically nighttime.
awesome i luv indy mogul
Movie MacGyver. That's splendid.
aww...the south park would've been sweet to see!

I am trying to capture video on Final Cut and I keep getting dropped frames. How do I prevent this?
That TV question, you answered it has something to do with the scan rate. Is that in any way related to the speed of the TV, you know the 50Hz, 60Hz thing. Because on most LCD Monitors you can change that. But please, don't shoot me if that has nothing to do with this.
where do you post or send your video question for q and erik?
FILM O' RIFFIC!!! thats abso-freakin'-tastic!!
All the other names are disgraceful to you freken nerds
MOVIE MCGEYVER!

flimorific would have been kinda cool, but honestly indy mogul is the best of those options
