Show Notes

Part of the Intro e-mail from Ken to me:

Interestingly enough, through listening to your podcasts I've noticed more than a few parallels between my film, "Headcase" and your feature film which you occasionally speak of, "Jake Forgotten." Headcase began filming in 2008, it was made for $50,000, the story has somewhat of a mob element to it but instead of shooting with the JVC GY HD100, I took the HVX 200 P2 route.

Fire Walk With Me club scene notes from the webverse.

Heathers is the movie that ushered in dark comedy.

Seth Worley at RedGiant TV is amazing. We talk about Exploding Man as a great tutorial.

We talk a lot about fxPHD and how great it is.

Ken mentions the Neat Video noise reduction plugin.

Headcase is also a Jordan Entertainment production.

Even More Headcase

Squirt of Dopamine

On this Episode of That Post Show, we are proud to have Mike J. Nichols, Paul Zadie and the amazing Steve Cohen on the show. We discuss the skills, other than editing, required to be an Editor. We talk about software, hollywood and too many other topics to list.

This show was edited on Adobe Audition CS 5.5 -- because Maggie McFee and John Foster said they loved Adobe Audition and I believed them. You be the judge of it's quality of sound.

Show Notes

You should go listen to Ruining it for Everyone right now.

Paul likes the Thinktank Backpack. I looked at the Shoulder Bag and it looks great for camera gear. I've always loved the STM Messenger and -- of course Timbuk2.

Norman wrote The Lean Forward Moment and it's even on the Kindle. Of course, so is Avid Agility which is a must-own.

We also mention the Go Pro 1080p camera, which is under $200 on Amazon.

There are no other show notes, other than this: I call crime procedurals "Semen in the Ketchup" shows, because my friend John D calls them that.
