Can you tell me what makes a terrible producer/director? I am going on floor for my first feature in a few months and producing it also, I'd like the tips. And any other production basics? catering, transport, generator? Thanks and cheers

One thing I often wonder is how do you write a location in a script? Say the script says they hang on a bridge. You'd have to have a real bridge and access to do it, right? Say in The Terminator Arnie arrives near the Griffin Observatory- was that written in the screenplay specifically or they...

everyday? I mean anything related to film as a career- making shorts, watching film related stuff online, watching a film, reading scripts, playing with camera, reading books? Apart from the day to day life that takes away your time- 5 hours? 8? Just on an average

The lighting and sets look great. When the fight starts its a tracking shot. After that how many cameras must they have used? Or did they go through the entire fight a few times and film it from other angles and steadicams? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XEElB5UTv-4

Do what I am doing: Make a feature film- forget the camera type, forget the dreams of a release night premiere party where you wear a tux and sip the best wine.......Write a screenplay, or ask someone else to write. Horror is in, write a story with somewhat varied locations which you can scout...

Yes Thank you. I am learning so much. I have learnt so much from you guys and this forum in general. I wonder why aren't most of you already making feature films. Money is the primary concern but working around the problem? Each scene you watch of a film makes you wonder if I could have shot it...

See that's the thing. I already have the cash. I have a mansion in a picturesque hill station available to me anytime, as long as I tell them in advance. I have around 300,000 USD. I did the calculations-shooting on 16mm. But I haven't made any short of merit. In fact just those 3 shorts is...

I am from Mumbai. Tell me more about this trip? For what, how long? I am a budding director/producer and even if I won't shoot, we could have a chat. PM me if you'd like

Did you check film specific?

I guess the middle man is the only way. And that happens at festivals where they lurk around. Otherwise good luck buying a 1500 round trip ticket to Beonos Aires with no guarantee that'd you'd even meet the right people let alone sell the film.

That's awesome dude. Could you tell me what was your budget and what camera you shot it with?

I am interested in horror or thriller but really.....any would do. And I can pay. My inbox is open.

Everywhere...on blogs, in interviews and advice they say...go out and shoot something, anything. Cast your sister and make a movie on that handycam. Can't a person not do any of those and still make a feature film? Create a budget, shoot on 16mm for example and make a feature without ever...

where's the list compadre?

yup
