Low Budget Effects for Film Short

I wanted to share this video with you because it illustrates the basic concepts of using a green screen, and setting up shots to use a green screen with. It also helps to see a balanced view of your options when shooting a low-budget, no-budget film.

Pigeon Impossible – A Fun Little Animated Feature

As I was surfing the web, I saw this animated film and thought, at the very least, it would be entertaining. It also made me think about the fact that we are all very talented, and we can create some incredible things if given half a chance. I hope if you are in a position to help someone that you do.
