We love films. It is not that we don't like photography, we do. But it lies too still. We are a minyan of people that are passionate about always moving things forward.

***This group is currently on hiatus, check back here or look out for email updates on if / who / when we start up the weekly screenwriting or production groups for spring/summer*** About a year ago, I began purchasing equipment to develop video content. It started out with a camera, then another, then microphones, then Final Cut, then Motion, then a green screen, then lighting, and so forth. I realized that there are probably other people like me, producers, directors, cinematographers, sound …

The future is forsaken, or is it? Come watch and discuss FUTURTECHNOTERRORs as documented by an almost obsolete medium: film. Since the dawn of cinema society has used celluloid images to express it’s collective fears, anxieties, hopes and fantasies surrounding the potential uses of technology.

Let's watch all those movies critics rave about. We do not have to agree with the critics, and often I don't, but their reviews are a good way to weed out a lot of stuff I definitely do not want to see.

This is the group for movies so bad they're good. Does a one star Netflix rating intrigue you? Would you watch Jesus Christ Vampire Hunter simply because a movie with that title must be awesome? Does your list of cinematic classics include things like Barbarella, Zardoz, and Mega Shark vs. Giant Octopus? More importantly, do you want to get together with a room full of people who just said "yes Yes YES" to the above, and spend hours making fun of horrible movies and laughing your ass off? I've b …

Welcome to the Light & Shadow Workshop Group. Our mission is to share with the New York independent film community the knowledge and practical skills needed to excel in the art of lighting and cinematography. When it is your turn to make a movie, you must ask two questions: 1) "Where should I put the LIGHT?" A single strategically placed light can work the magic of four or five incorrectly placed lights. 2) "How to create SHADOW?" Anybody can switch on a light and flood a scene with light and ma …
