Working for the Web

Web video's made it easier for filmmakers to earn $ for their work. TurnHere pays talented filmmakers all over the world to shoot for the Web. If you're interested, check out our REELEDin sheet or visit www.turnhere.com.

Our filmmakers use 3-chip DV cams like the DVX100, etc., to make the videos. Most use Final Cut or Avid to edit.

Here's one of the many videos we've been creating worldwide, shot in South Africa.

Yes, I do. I WILL get out of this office job one day and become a full-time filmmaker - not the kind that has to make films in the wee hours of the night or using up all my down time (what the hell is down time?) I am currently in production with my documentary, "I Have Dreams Dammit".

I will be uploading my videos here soon... currently they're all on YouTube. You can learn more about my documentary, and me, on both my websites:

Thanks and keep the dream alive!

New Studio 8 Sketch: Hell-O-Phone

Brock LaBorde
Posted

Studio 8 Friends and Families,

This week's new video is a sketch-like thingy called "Hell-O-Phone" in which Jesus and Satan battle over a semi-retarded young man's soul via his cell phone. You can watch it on our Reel or at the link below.

If and when you watch this sketch, be sure to note the state-of-the-art video game that the "Paul" character plays on his Nintendo Wii throughout the sketch. This game, currently entitled "Titty Pitty Pat", is currently being developed and/or under-developed by Studio 8's Brock and Jared to be released sometime in the next 40 years or so.

This was an easy sketch to shoot, but was a booger to edit, and everyone should give Jared a pitty-pat on the back for his fancy editing skillz.

Also, if you are in the Austin area, be sure to go see Chris Trew's show at Emo's on July 26th. He'll be performing his comedic rap songs as Terp 2 It and will be opening for the mega-huge rapper MC Chris, from Adult Swim's Sealab and Aqua Teen fame.

AND, give Terp's new album, "The Freshest Dude", a whirl if you haven't already. Here are the details on that:

On iTunes:

The disc:

Also available at the ColdTowne Theater and Waterloo Records in Austin, Tx and by check or paypal at Studio8.net!

We've got more news coming your way, but that should do it for this week. Thanks for being nice to us!

Peace out,

Brock

Daily Reel Comedy: Allow myself to introduce...myself

Josh Spector

Hey Comedy peoples…

Welcome to the brand spankin’ new Daily Reel Comedy crew blog. This crew has been created for all of you who make funny videos – or at least try to. I’ll be your host and you can look forward to hearing from me just about every day on the latest and greatest in the world of online comedy videos as well as tricks of the trade and other assorted nonsense.

To kick things off, I guess I should tell you a little about myself. In addition to my new responsibilities as the Daily Reel’s comedy kingpin, I am the “brains” behind WhipItOutComedy.com – a site that regularly features some of the funniest videos on the web every single day (except for the days where we feel lazy).

I’m also a partner in Take The Stairs Productions, a production/management company that produces movies, TV, online series, live comedy tours, and manages comedians.

Anyway, I hope to make this crew blog a daily must-read for comedy content creators (and buyers) so in order to do that, I’d love to hear from some of you about the kinds of things you’d like to see blogged about. Feel free to leave a comment or shoot me a message to let me know what you’d like to see more or less of as we get going. Thx!

I reely (mis-spelling intended) don't know what to make of this site but now I'm here, thanks to Nalts and his blog mentioning this site I may as well introduce myself.


I am The Extraordinary Tourist, otherwise known as TET. I'm based in South Australia, where I create art, write and make short videos. My videos are predominantly about art including work in progress films, art comedy and art business (with the occasional puppet comedy video thrown in).

I do just about everything in my low budget pieces created with the cheapest of web cams and a dinosaur of a laptop (though fortunately it's still a youngish dinosaur).

I have no idea how this 'Link to video' box below the comment box works or where it will place the link to my video. If you do and know where to find the link, click it and be rewarded with my latest art video.

Maybe I'll talk to you soon.

REELEDin is NOW!

Spencer Somers

Hello online filmmakers and watchers, and welcome to REELEDin! My name is Spencer Somers, the managing editor of REELEDin, and I speak for the whole staff of The Daily Reel when I say, we are incredibly excited to have you here. This site was built with the idea in mind that online video is as legit a form of media as film or TV, and getting paid for it is not that far off, in fact for a lot of people, it's now.

REELEDin puts you, the user, in a unique spot to schmooze and connect with your peers, as well bump elbows with industry elite, and corporate bigwigs. Right now, these upper crusters are looking towards you online filmmakers to bring their products and projects towards a new resonance. Old media is flailing, new media is growing.

At REELEDin, you will be at the epicenter of this quake, but like college or relationships, it depends solely on what you make of it. Filmmaking has never had a community, or dare I say it, a commune, where filmmakers can work together to help each other improve and play show and tell to specifically those who matter. This isn't YouTube; this isn't about getting a million views, though please do! This is about business and artistic development.

To all the filmmakers who wish they could find the camaraderie of Spielberg, Coppola Scorsese and Lucas, or Cuaron, Innaritu, and Del Toro, this is really your chance. Find your favorite filmmakers on REELEDin, add them as contacts, invite them to a crew, start talking about eachother's work, start discussing possible collaborations...Anything is possible.

Well, I'm really, really excited about this, if you can't tell. If you guys have any questions ever, don't hesitate to message me at my sheet, or post to the community blog. I'll be reading and watching everything!

Best of luck to everyone, and thanks for being part of this experiment.
