Insane!

Yes, I was paying attention. I even read both the long version and the short version. I understand that you are in a hurry because people like Terry Fox and Wowaka died really YOUNG of natural causes. And you are concerned that you may die young before you complete this project thus...

It's crazy that people recording and selling sound effects don't like it when someone wants their work for free, isn't it? Even for an important cause. And who knew that ripping a model from a video game is frowned upon by the people who worked hard to build that model? I'm sorry, Avery623...

Once you take your Guild actors out of the U.S. the ULB agreement no longer applies. "The Ultra Low Budget Project Agreement applies to those films shooting entirely in the United States with a maximum budget of $300,000." You should check out the SAG/AFTRA website and look into the "New Media"...

I hadn't seen that video from the courtroom. What an incompetent fool. Every move he made that that gun was wrong. And he was a expert for the defense? I've been an armorer in more than 50 sets. I have never been on a set where there was live ammunition present. The exception being special...

No smart remarks from me. I say, yes, it's okay to make a fictional film about school violence. It sure seems like this is a passion of yours. Go for it!

This is going to put a lot of crews out of work.

Nothing to forgive. It's fine to want something artistically stunning. But, I am and always have been just your average-Joe write and film maker. I prefer to simply entertain. Just teasing you a bit.

All of my short films were in one location. One was a guy in a closet and there's something out there. My first feature was one location - technically... It was an old mansion so there were many different room and a creepy basement. All of my ultra low budget features were four or less...

That's a pretty good connection. Who does she play? I'm glad that so many people know the Thin Man movies - what a great series. That's the first thing I thought of when I watched the trailer - "Nick and Lana" made me laugh.

Indiegal, how are you connected to this movie?

I wish you had given all the info in your first post. The actions you need to take are different when the question isn't hypothetical and the film is finished.

Then the action you need to take is to walk across the street and talk to the producers. Tell them you do not want to be in their movie. So this isn't a quick hypothetical question - this is something that happened to you?

The entire history of film making is filled with movies made for very little money that made a lot of money. And as Mara points out those number are always deflated. Yes, Rodriguez was about $7,200 out of pocket - the movie we saw was far more than that. Given the current cameras available (as...

In order to answer I will need to know what your concern is. Are you in witness protection and being filmed will endanger your life? The action you need to take in that example is different than if you want to be paid for your on screen appearance. Does being filmed going yard work embarrass...

Writing is the next best step and is the right track. Write that pilot and that feature. Write another short script and direct it. That; or find an animator who is looking for a good script - then collaborate. You should spend the amount of time you need on a first draft. There are no...

My first thought is similar to someone asking me to watch their movies and it's not in focus. This screenplay is difficult to read. You need to pay attention to details: you have a long scene of Nathan and John jogging inside Nathan's room. You never change locations. All this gets in the way...

And in 2005 vinyl records were dead...

It isn't always about the cost of a location. The advice is often based on time. As you point out not all productions are the same, but often when shooting a low/no budget film equipment is being rented. If you have the budget for, say, five days of rental and you have several locations...

I'm not understanding why you think a very low budget or no budget can't have at least one scene location away from the one, primary location. You have pointed why it's very possible. Low/no budget films do not need to stuck in one location. There are no rules to break. You make great points...
