      ”Eyes wide shut”

      Yes, you can see the cut out where the lens is.

      it’s only a fraction of a second, I wonder if that was necessary as most people would not have noticed the Matt box. Stanley was a perfectionist and wasn’t worried about expenditure so he thought why not!

        Very informative, nice to see the camera in one position rather than zooming in and out which seems to be the fashion these days.  I liked this one, Roger and James were more relaxed and the questions more technical.  Very nice work imo.

          This photo has already been circulated around the world, don’t worry about copyright.

          Photo is not from the film production company.

            Rusalen,

            I am so pleased that your film has been nominated, you must be very excited by that news.  Once you have started a film, never give up finishing it doesn’t matter how long it takes.  Congratulations and remember this just the beginning. Wonderful news.

              Thankyou David,

              I can feel the heat from here!

              Assume it was a controlled Butane fire rather than burning old discarded sets as per “Gone With the Wind” era. Pleased the fire trucks were on stand by,just in case.

                <b>Interesting post.</b>

                Would be nice if we could identify the film in the photo.

                      Frank,

                      I assume English is not your first language as you have misunderstood what I was saying.  Perhaps you could let us know where you are located so that members will have a better understanding why you have adopted a particularly harsh tone and intent in up setting forum members.  But as you say, you will not be reading this anyway.

                        The problem with computers these days, is that even if English is your first language the meaning of correspondence can be easily misinterpreted then someone takes umbrage because they assumed  it meant something else. This is the modern age where people never meet but correspond on a daily basis. 😳

                              Vanniyan has always been a valued member of the forum, he has probably asked more questions than anyone else, his English is now very good. He has bags of enthusiasm and always want to learn new ways of  film making. He has never been disrespectful and always wants to please others.

                              I would employ him as film crew any day.

                                  Vanniyan,

                                  Well done Sir, you may get an answer but probably not.

                                  Btw, over the years, you were the most consistent member of the forum, you have been extremely loyal as with many other members who sadly have now disappeared.

                                  Thank God we live in a democratic world where we enjoy freedom of speech.
