Great YouTube video where a guy builds a 16mm camera from scratch. Explains really well how film cameras work. youtu.be/ZAtYJYfV2nA

Looking forward to do some haunted house horror! 👻

Video uploaded about making ’Call of the Ocean’ but also just shooting Super 8 in general. Shooting a Short on Super 8 - Making Call of the Ocean youtu.be/qRuvbh9opq0

Talking practical and digital effects in Until Dawn vimeo.com/1103556318

Shot a 2 min short on Super8 with @lottalosten.bsky.social while we were in Sweden. Shot on Kodak Vision 3 50D with a Canon 814XL-S camera.

When you record a long YouTube video and don’t notice that the overhead mic is slowly sagging into frame so you have to reshoot it… 😞

Many times I’ve gotten these on the first try but yesterday I didn’t… 😳 (You only see a little bit of the image at first and more is revealed with each guess)

Iconoclasts is $3.99 on US PSN buff.ly/dXh7CVo $4.99 GOG buff.ly/HOt687B

I’m an OG YouTuber. My channel is almost as old as YouTube itself 😎

I am once again here to tell you Iconoclasts is on sale on the Switch. No excuse no give it a go at this price. Cannot recommend this game enough. #blutoid #iconoclasts #switch

I just learned they’re doing a ”Dancing with the Stars” and ”Shark Week” mashup called ”Dancing with Sharks”. Like, how do you even make jokes anymore?

Very puzzled by this bit in ”The Spiral Staircase”. She’s standing in front of a mirror but in the wide shots it’s clearly not a mirror but a flat picture (without her reflection). Very obvious when camera moves. What could be the reason for this?

You don’t have to shoot horror in actual low light

If you didn’t get that Bogart is evil in ”The Petrified Forest” the way they frame him against the background may give some subtle hints…

Been watching some real bangers lately

Made a video about a good movie I watched the other day:

🤷‍♂️

Ep 100 from @fangoria.com We discuss new films DROP, DEAD TALENTS SOCIETY, GAZER, POPEYE THE SLAYER MAN & PSYCHO THERAPY. We then talk to Director @ponysmasher.social about adapting video games and practical FX In his gory new film UNTIL DAWN. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/col…

Was already looking forward to the Until Dawn movie but this practical effects breakdown/BTS from @ponysmasher.social has me even more stoked - how fuckin cool, man. youtu.be/ulIlW5XZxC4?...

Only the second R-rated film I’ve directed. And boy do we earn that rating…

The thing about mixing sound on a great stage is that you know you’ll never hear the movie sounding this good again.

Yesterday the cleaning staff at Sony thought I’d moved out of my office and threw out the stuff I had in there, like my signed Until Dawn posters 😞 Oh well, I’ll see the cast again while doing publicity.

I don't think anyone is demanding that every person needs stacks of film, VHS, DVDs and Blurays but the fact is, owning physical media is the only way to guarantee access to what you wish to see in the future. We are seeing streaming getting yanked on a whim and it's only going to get worse.

Been making mini comics these past few days. Capybara Facts: dauid.com/comics?comic...

I was also told to ignore bullying. Then one day in 5th grade I completely snapped and beat up the main bully. Not only was I never bullied again, I became best friends with the bully!! Very confusing because I was always told “violence solves nothing”. But in that case violence solved everything.

Lately I’ve tried to write down my dreams when I wake up in the middle of the night. I don’t want to forget any potentially brilliant ideas when I go back to sleep. Here’s my note from last night:

Wait, Andrew Keir turned 41 years old while shooting Quatermass and the Pit?! Professor Quatermass is a year YOUNGER than me? But he’s an old man. Oh no…

When you’re used to just watching TikToks.

She and the team were fantastic! I kept my ideas pretty loose and mostly just let them do their magic. Really loved Louise’s idea to take inspiration from ancient Greek theater masks for the minions. For Shazam I wanted to try and go a bit more modern this time since we went old school in the 1st.

It saddens me that this is where it’s all heading. You will never own a copy of a movie again. They’ll be able to change, censor or just flat out delete movies that you “own”.

Today’s comics haul. My favorite thing is to take chances on some comics from the small indie/self published section. It’s nice to be surprised. Especially with really indie comics where you can get unfiltered and unique voices straight from the source. It gets weird sometimes.

Short horror film creators (actors, writers, directors, dps) please send my your Vimeo/YT links. I'm creating a weekly column to highlight short horror films (<30 min) on MovieReelist.com. Help me help my audience find you!

Watching older sci-fi movies that take place now is so disappointing. Sure, they got the dystopia right but where’s all the cool sci-fi stuff we were promised? (No Escape, 1994)

It’s been 10 years since @ponysmasher.bsky.social and I made our first horror short- Cam Closer- so we decided to celebrate by making a sequel of sorts! Cam Closer II https://youtu.be/S--600PIa9I
