You can whip out your video camera and make little home movies whenever you want. Making a movie is lots of fun, but it is not like shooting home movies. If you are an amateur and wish to have your new movie look good, there are ways you can ensure success.
Instructions
1. Get a quality digital camera. This is not only the best way to make a good looking amateur movie, but it helps make the editing process easier because you can do it on the computer.
2. Use a quality computer that helps you edit your amateur movie in a good way. The right equipment can give you clean cuts and stops, and it can make you look like a pro. If you have an older PC, try buying a new one, or using someone's PC that is fast and reliable.
3. Buy a microphone, or borrow one from someone you know. Good sound quality on your amateur movie can make the biggest difference. Just remember to keep the microphone out of the shots.
4. Write a good quality script, or get a talented person to write one for you. The key to a good script is to make sure it isn't cheesy or trite, and it needs to have enough tension building action leading up to a solid climax and conclusion.
5. Plan for how you are going to shoot your amateur movie and where. The key to the best shots is the right lighting, setting and the ability to do each shot a few times to get the just right. You must devote a lot of time to the planning process to make a good amateur movie.
6. Recruit talented people to work on the movie with you. This includes serious actors, knowledgeable technical hands and coordinators that can help you get everyone in order for shooting the film.
7. Be diligent about the type of movie you want to make, and make sure to allow your passion to seep into the cast and crew. If you are crystal clear to everyone about exactly what you want, you'll have your workers right where you want them.
