As an avid reader, I am quite hesitant to see my beloved books displayed on screen only to have the directors do them no justice. Sure, some things were left out undoubtedly due to time constraints, but overall, it conveyed the story well. However, when I saw the first Harry Potter, I was terrified it was going to be "butchered" like most "books to movies" are but was pleasantly surprised by the relatively "stick to the book" script it displayed. I chose to read it to them so we could ALL enjoy it.and we did! Naturally, the kids were excited when the movie came out. I run the images through a batch encoder with Irfanview to get rid of black borders on the image, rename the files, and conform them to jpg.Ħ.Having three daughters I have a choice when a great book comes out: buy three of them (EXPENSIVE!!), force someone to wait until the other is done before they can read the book (sure, I enjoy breaking up fights!), or read it to them. and bring down the number of stills to my 60-65 golden number.ĥ.

I view all the frames as a slideshow and I remove any frame that there are doubles of (someone might be blinking in first frame and normal in second) or remove any that seem less interesting this time around.Ĥ. So the next step is to edit, usually there might be a week or 2 between the first grab and this edit stage. This usually leaves me with around 200-250 frames per film. Depending on mood I could spend a few hours just doing the grabbingģ. I watch through the movies on VLC, usually between 3x and 4x speed while listening to podcasts, grabbing any frame that interests me. i try to keep a mix of styles.genres/directors and DP’s so I dont get bored while working.Ģ. Make a to do pile, its a combination of recommendations, stuff Ive been enjoying myself, stuff I want to rewatch…. Hi Arturo, Ive considered having a donate button, but I feel bad for asking for money, maybe I’ll post an amazon wishlist so people can contribute in that way sending me movies I want to feature on the site.ġ. ![]()
