FX Requests | In Camera Gun Shots!

This video was made for all you low budget filmmakers who want to make action movie effects, but think you can't pull it off without something like AE. Well now you can! All in camera, with no post work at all. So enjoy the video and send me links to any clips you use this effect in.

Welcome

I decided it was about time I made a website to contain all of my work in one coherent place.
For those of you who know nothing about me allow me to introduce myself.

My name is Joe Cook,

I am very interested in every aspect of filmmaking. In fact it is my ultimate goal to one day make a living doing what I love. Once I had realized this was what I wanted I set about learning everything I could about filmmaking as far as my means could take me. This is where this website comes into play.

The tabs above contain links to my various social media outlets centered around my YouTube channel. The channel was founded as a showcase for my work and has recently taken the form of an educational outlet for amateur special effects. I know that the concept of my show FX Requests is nothing original, and I don't intend it to be better than the other channels out there. Instead I made the show to teach myself what I couldn't learn from watching other videos, and going to film school. So ultimately the videos are made to benefit me, but if others can learn from what I do, then I think that is equally great.

This website will be serving as another way for me to share and express anything I think is helpful to any branch of filmmaking.

So if you would like to join me on my filmmaking adventure, you're more than welcome.

If you have any questions, or you'd just like to say hello, feel free to contact me any way you want.
