How To Create A Good Film

Things to remember-

- Create a coherent storyline people can actually understand, it brings a lot to a film. Make sure the story itself makes sense, make it simple if in doubt.
- Become the character, don't be apathetic. Apathetic acting = bad
- DON'T HAVE THE BOOM IN THE SHOT.
- Establish the scene and setting early on.
- Make it somewhat realistic. As in there isn't going to be 5 people at a party, you guys.
- Sound is key. Try not to get any distracting unwanted noises like traffic/wind.
- Do. Not. Rush. It.
- Have shorter takes. Long takes are boring and aren't fun to watch.
- Play your age. Please. We are 13/14/15, not 23.
- Have an original title,
- Write an actual script, adlib here and there, but be careful.
- Again. Sound is so important. PLEASE BE CAREFUL
- I can not stress this enough. Play. Your. Age.
- A good location is epic
- It's a team job, everyone in the TEAM needs a JOB
- Please don't fight. We can work out our arguments like civil human beings. If you don't like something or have concerns, tell us. I'm very willing to take someone on a long walk off of a short pier at some point this weekend.
- Have fun. This is super important. Viewers can tell when you don't care.
