Have you ever been on youtube to watch and judge someone's so-called 'masterpiece', and then realized that it just sucked so hard that your grandmother could film a better movie?
Well, I know I had. And I wished that they would just do a little research on how to do better filming techniques before they just pop up a random 'junker-piece'. Or even better yet, learn how do filmmaking on a budget using this kit.
Some of the most common errors I've seen is jump to jump shot scenes, background music is way too loud(you can't even hear the main subject speaking for the matter), and the wrong kind of filming environment for the movie(if it is about about Baja desert racing, for example, you wouldn't want to have a scene of a dock near the shoreline).
That last example was a little bit on the extreme side, but you get the idea. All that I'm saying is do your homework before jumping to the camera. You should read this squidoo lens about amateur filmmaking. It has some basic ideas on how to get started in amateur filmmaking.
