Jay Makes a Movie Jay Caudill

This week I built my Fig Rig, a camera stabilizer. This is another of my how to walk throughs.

I had a really long week and a few setbacks popped up that were unforeseen.
Getting ready to build my Fig Rig which will be an upcoming episode but this week we discuss cheap light gel alternatives and the bad side of having a small crew.

I tried my hand at my first DIY project, a shock mount and boom pole. It turned out extremely well so I thought I'd run you through the project.

The entire thing ran me around $15... Not too shabby.

Tips on sound for lower budget film in this episode as well as some suggestions for a few DIY projects like boom poles and shock mounts. We discuss our upcoming short film project and much more.

This week I discuss the various script formats, what I use, and I give some helpful websites for low budget sound and lighting as well as script writing techniques.

So this is the first episode and it is a getting to know me episode. Not every episode will be like this one but essentially this week out I wanted to introduce myself and explain why I'm doing this and how I became interested.

From here we will begin our journey, learning how to make a film from script to final edit.
