Anyone hear into talking about movies?

[JoshHatesCheese]

I’ve always loved not only watching movies but also learning about what went into making them. Everything from the writing process, filming, editing, special effects, acting, the score, ect. I used to have a podcast where I did movie reviews, but it never really gained any traction. Anyways I would love to talk movies if anyone here is interested.- Josh

It was a made for TV movie , " Kent State " https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kent_State_(film)

I watched as the shots were set up and the lighting , I found out the AD works like a dog , lol . The director sits in his perch and the AD is running his legs off . This was back in the film camera days so every time before the cameras would roll they checking the lighting with a meter so they had the cameras adjusted just right . I had a close up in the movie but it was edited out when they decided to condense it from a two night TV movie to a one night , bummer .

If you ever get a chance to be an extra on a set you need to do it , enjoyed the pay and the filming knowledge I got . I walk by in the crowd on the film but some of my friends had some good screen time .
