That's what I think, too. You can become "preferred" merchant on Amazon for a monthly fee. Maybe the breakdown is one of the perks.

Worth posting next to your computer screen.

Yes, worth the hassle. Clearly downloads outsell DVDs, so it's been a new source of revenue. Rolling in dough, no. But it does work -- put a link under everyone's nose to 'watch it now', some will bite. Filmmakers have to remember that THEY have to put the link out there. Createspace isn't...

Got to 41 seconds, that's all I could take. Pick up the pace. Each clip ought to last 2 or 3 seconds, max! Use a tripod. You did get one thing right -- you kept the opening title sequence short and went straight to the action! Most newbies do not get this right. Good luck.

My 2 cents. Paying for a soundstage in low budget filmmaking won't pencil out. HOWEVER, building a movie set in a garage or basement that cost you very little to use and that you can have continued access to for a year or more will pencil out. You can write your script so that a bulk of the...

You "found" $25 mil, yet you need to crowdfund? I'd say you need to swab the deck again.

Maybe I should have been more clear. Tack on a 17+ age limit at the prime 7PM showing? Not going to happen for most festivals. Likewise with afternoon showings. Shorts are programmed in blocks so your film can only be in a 17+ block. If there are only a few 17+ films, they're not going to...

Not so fast. Festivals like to fill seats (generate revenue), and young adults are a prime source of money. Cutting out this audience would be a bonehead move for many (most?) festivals. They'll likely not select it at all or run it late at night (more competition for you by the way). Another...

Connor, Maybe you're over thinking grading. Maybe you're just looking to get all the clips to match. Good luck.

I'd say many films have been made this way. Besides, if magic doesn't happen, you don't have to make that film, you can look for another partner.

OP, open your pocketbook and take all the cash out and put it on a table. Now start writing down ideas for your feature story using Ray's chart as a guideline. When thinking up locations, costumes, special effects, props, etc., the cost for all of these together should add up to no more than...

No.

All your free time, and more. Contrary to some opinions here, marketing doesn't have to cost much. Start a blog, get 5000 friends on FB, 2500 fans of your FB film page, 1000(?) twitter fans, 6116 instagram friends, 1000(?) Pinterest followers, plus google circles, tumbler and more. I have all...

If you remember an unique line in the film, enter it in Google. You might luck out.

The Big Lebowski.

The 'coolness' factor help raises a film's rewatch value. As does a short length (for feature films).

Agree.

Uploading is on its way and they're likely to discontinue the DVD submission thing.
