Hey me and a friend of mine and a rag tag group have decided to produced a small film. We have a Canon L2 and A Sony VX3 so we are using Hi-8 as our format. DV is still to far out of our reach and a Sony MZ-R37 Portable Minidisc Player/Recorder for on location sound. What do you think? Are we off to a good start or a bad start? We will be using pinnacle software for editing. Would love some feedback. We are trying to maximise the small budget we have.
Imagination is critical
Way more important than equipment is a good story.
As long as you have that, you're off to a great start!

Thank you we have a good story to shoot. We have done some good sequences too. Wish is luck we start the bulk of shooting in the late summer. Whoopee we're making a moveie! I think!
Imagination is critical
You've got the basics, believe me creativity in movies is more than story deep, you have to be resourceful and use what you can get. I just recommend that you look into a few shooting basics such as white balance, shot composition, ect. these little things will improve the quality of your film way above the average point and shoot crowd, believe me a little research can go a long way in this industry.
