Today, I received an email introducing me to a cool film industry website called Movieset.com. MovieSet.com is movie online source that providing fans with daily news and content from films in various stages of production.

“MovieSet is a great tool for film producers, especially as we know how much social media campaigns are now playing an important role in our distribution and promotion strategies – basically getting the word out about films way before their theatrical release,” says Christine Haebler, producer for Daydream Nation at B.C.-based Screen Siren.

What HD shooting format is better? 720p vs 1080i?

As I approach the 3 week mark before filming my feature film Bend & Break. I have been thirsty for new and useful information that will help me to make a kick ass movie.

Since my upcoming movie will be shot on HD, it is important for me to know which (progressive or interlaced) I plan to use.
720p or 1080i. I always thought that 1080i captured a higher quality image then 720p, until I came across this video below.

It’s a pretty cool video and offers good information about the different HD broadcast and shooting qualities.
