    Producer asked to donate help

    This answer is bitter sweet but not surprising. Yes, the film will do well, but unfortunately my work on it will probably not be appreciated. It stings because you're right, he won't change (without therapy lol) and I am only beating my head against the wall. It's best I concentrate on my own...

    Producer asked to donate help

    Dear Fellow Filmmakers, Bear with me, this is long and involved and takes some time to read through, but I would so very much appreciate your take on it. The reason why I'm not asking my colleagues is because I'm embarrassed to. I don't want to look naive and that I don't know what I'm doing...
