I finally finished the write-up of a recent gathering of local DPs and actors to shoot some quick projects. It's up on Filmmaker's site:
Freelance videographer/filmmaker Sean Meehan had connected with Rick just two months earlier when Jared Abrahms had retweeted that Rick was looking for a shooter to assist on a documentary. For this event, “Rick put out that he was looking for some actors,” said Sean, “and I responded to him on Twitter asking, ‘What age range are you looking for? I might have some people.’ He told me the age range, and then in the second tweet right afterwards he said ‘Also, do you want to work with the C300 in a little while?’, and I jumped at it.”

Adobe Prelude: Ingesting and Converting DSLR Footage to ProRes | Clay Asbury
| Premiumbeat
I've been playing with Prelude the last couple of days, so I was happy to see this tip on transcoding to ProRes:

This is a great file choice when you work with a variety of nonlinear apps (it’s a popular intermediate codec for FCP). ProRes is also a solid option if you plan on color correcting in Apple Color or Black Magic Resolve.

IS THE FILM A FIT?
Do your research when it comes to which festivals you’ll apply. Take a look at past films that have screened. Read reviews from past festival attendees. Do the programmers primarily accept narrative? Is there an emphasis on short films?

3. Table reading –the dialogue rewrite: A table reading with actors (from a local theatre group, or acting school) is a great way for your piece to come to life. Actors would not normally expect to be paid, although it is polite to offer some refreshments, or help with transportation costs.
