5 Ways To Get Out Of Your Filmmaking Comfort Zone in 2023 | CineD (CineD)

Make your 2023 goal to try new experiments and workflows in your video production and see where the path takes you.

Or make a project entirely out of motion graphics, keep it to 15 seconds, and give it to your client to use on their social media. It’s important to always be learning new skills, trends and ways of doing things, and in video production it’s certainly essential to keeping up with the times, let alone growing as a creative. In addition, you might also be missing out on jobs where the client requires you to use a different NLE. Or if you don’t want to be too dramatic, just take less gear with you and focus on the story. What about forcing yourself to use only a COB light shot through a shower curtain for your documentary interviews? And of course you can experiment wildly with your own personal unpaid work, but if possible, try to fit experimentation into your paid work. And it’s very easy to fall into that trap over and over again. Lock it down and get a series of shots that tell the story with movement in-frame rather than with camera movement. Maybe you don’t think anamorphic is for you, or it doesn’t fit your client work, but you’ll never know until you try. And luckily there’s an entire world of tutorials and courses out there that are dedicated to helping you learn new skills and or production approaches. You can certainly set concrete goals, whether it’s business or personal goals, but that mindset can be limited to what you know today – your worldview, your current situation, your opportunities and what you think is possible next year. With video, no two projects are alike, and you have many frames to experiment with, so there’s really nothing stopping you from trying new tactics except for fear of failure, time, or motivation.

UPDATE: Jeremy Hutchinson cooks up a get-out-jail scheme (Arkansas Times)

UPDATE: More legal developments in the case of the jailing Thursday of the governor's nephew, former Republican Sen. Jeremy Hutchinson, for contempt of ...

He also argued that a stay of the contempt finding is in order because his appeal of the order will becpme moot if he is sent to federal prison on the unrelated federal charges he faces, beginning with sentencing on two charges Feb. He’s under a huge cash bond currently, but in such cases there’s generally a possibility for bargaining to have a contempt finding lifted. Hard to imagine the Supreme Court would rule on this motion and free a felonious former legislator from jail in an extraordinary ex parte hearing. He’s jailed now under a cash bond of $524,000 over unpaid child support, plus interest, for his three children. It says he has up to 49 creditors, with liabilities of $100,000 to $500,000 and assets of $0-$50,000. She’s part of the Saline County Republican power clique along with Lancaster, who is a member of the Saline Election Commissioner. Hutchinson HAS said during the course of the case that his father, the former U.S. It will be a sticky business for Supreme Court Justice Barbara Webb to rule on this case. Lancaster disputed the judge’s finding that he had failed to prove he didn’t have the ability to pay. Jeremy Hutchinson, for contempt of court for making little demonstrable effort to cover more than a half-million in unpaid child support. Under the Hutchinson scheme, you’d merely need to plead poverty and file a bankruptcy petition to avoid penalty for non-payment. If this get-out-of-jail-free ploy works, it will end the very effective practice of holding deadbeat dads in contempt and jailing them if they don’t come up with some money.

“I want to have left,” Bichener said of where she wants to be, a year from now. The act implemented a “waterfall” system: Developers would be expected to pay first, but, if they are unable to, then the cost would fall to the building owners. “When they were four and five and I’d just started dating their dad,” they were excited to have sleepovers in the living room.

Hundreds of thousands of people are believed to be in the same boat, but the UK government has failed to commission a full audit, which means the scale of the impact is unclear. According to the residents CNN spoke with, a scant few have been able to sell to cash buyers – but often at a 60-80% loss.

After the revelations, a group of former Grenfell residents came to visit Vista Tower to raise awareness about the nationwide cladding crisis. But in the five years since, Britons living in tower blocks with unsafe cladding have found themselves stuck in a perpetual state of limbo.

'I've got to get out and tell people': Pete Buttigieg on his road ahead (The Guardian)

Can the US revitalise its infrastructure? Is the US ready for a gay president? And does Buttigieg still plan to run one day?

“And the ugly is you see a level of targeting going on for political convenience, in my view, driven by a lot of figures who don’t want to talk about their lack of solutions on other issues, that can really be costly and even physically dangerous for vulnerable communities right now. “It can be tough in a space – and Fox is an example – that tends to offer more coverage of some controversial angle around electric vehicles or racial justice than would offer any coverage of the thousands of specific projects that we’re investing in around the country. The bad news is it’s coming in a climate of rights being withdrawn at the US supreme court, including potentially more of the hard-won rights of the LGBTQ+ community. The secretary reflects: “To be sitting with Chasten and seeing the president make that into law was really moving and and reassuring. [happy to reap the benefits](https://democrats.org/news/dozens-of-republicans-who-opposed-the-bipartisan-infrastructure-law-want-projects-funded-by-it/).

Road accidents kill about [40,000 people a year](https://www.nhtsa.gov/press-releases/2020-traffic-crash-data-fatalities), comparable with gun violence and far worse than other countries; Buttigieg finds this unacceptable and hopes that self-driving cars might be part of the solution. It sounds a little bit cosmic but that really is part of what is on the table right now with our responsibility to deliver.” So after four years of chest thumping and big promises without results, this administration knew, this president knew, that it was long past time to do something and it turned out the public appetite was there, the deal space was there.” Buttigieg, who is unapologetically from the government and here to help, says: “The beginning of the Reagan era brought about a vicious cycle of public trust, where resources were stripped away from the government. [according to the World Economic Forum](https://www3.weforum.org/docs/WEF_TheGlobalCompetitivenessReport2019.pdf). Buttigieg has gone from running a city of 100,000 people to a department whose budget is bigger than the gross domestic product of most countries.
