Thank you all for your suggestions, I've been thinking over the logline again over night. Also I think I will go with the title: A Chorus Of War. I was contemplating it anyway, but the fact that it's higher alphabetically and it does seems to flow a bit better makes it a better choice...

I do see what you mean, something more like this maybe: "A displaced musician, finds himself drafted to the front lines of WW2, where he must inspire his fellow soldiers to victory against Hitler's elite in one of the hardest fought battles of the war" Thanks for your suggestion :)

Ok, so I'm developing my Logline and title, I've narrowed it down now to this: Title: The Chorus Of War Logline: Aspiring singer, John Scott, is drafted to fight in WWII; where he must adapt or die. Is the logline too short? Maybe "Aspiring singer, John Scott, is launched in to unfamiliar...

Hi, So obviously I've edited the original post, I hope you all will be here again when I try this with the new film. I should have it finished within a month or so. Thanks again for the feedback!

Thanks, I appreciate the feedback. Unfortunately it's nearly impossible to do something original in horror nowadays, so it leaves film makers with only one viable option and that's to do something similar. So when doing something similar you have to make sure that you do it better. I think the...

Hi everyone, So I have edited this post, as it's no longer relevant. The script was poor. I think I was just over happy with completing my first feature, to see the faults. I have now moved on to a new idea and considered that one as practice. The new idea is a fresh and original take on an...

Hello, So I've been sitting on this project for a while, it was going to be a short film but to be honest the subject can't fit in to a short. Only Human follows Katy, a young sixth form student. She's the daughter of an important MP and as a result is kidnapped and used as the ultimate...

Wow... Thank you for that thread, I'm gonna bookmark that and read it about 15 times over and hope it all sinks in. I won't be approaching a producer until I'm sure I've got it all straight. Thanks again. :)

Thank you for the answers :) When you say a lot, how much of a percentage of the profits should I expect to give up? In the 1% - 25% or the 25% - 50% range?

Yes, I can certainly see your point. A Producer with contacts and knowledge would be far more valuable. Thank you :)

That's correct I did mean investing, so should I expect a producer to invest? (particularly at my level) And correct again, I am looking for someone to work with me to get this film made, I would like to direct it too. I will start my search for a producer immediately. I think the film has...

I can't at the moment as I'm about to head out, I assume this is an exercise in reality? Seeing how little there are that make it? I am painfully aware of the reality of it. I like to think of my self as extremely optimistic in that regard, but aware of the reality of the chnaces.

I would like to think theaters. That is my aim, I'd be disappointed to get less, but I know that DVD would still be an amazing achievement. So anywhere possible really :)

Hello, As some of you know, I am writing my own horror feature film. This is my first venture in to this area. On my previous small projects I've played most of the behind the camera roles. However obviously this is a different kettle of fish, as my grandad says, so I need a bit of guidance. I...

Age is irrelevant, I'm 20, these people give you the best advice regardless of your age so you should appreciate it. I'm writing my first feature at the moment, without the (sometimes ruthless) advice of the people on this forum, I'd be nowhere near ready to take it on. I wish you the best of...
