    locations Making the Winter feel like Summer

    How flexible are the scenes? Are they dialogue-driven, so that you can adjust where they take place? I'm thinking something like this, especially in terms of not putting a child out in the cold in skimpy clothes: Situate the mother and child on the balcony of a beach-y (oceanfront/bayfront or...

    Great point that I missed entirely. That seems VERY high indeed.

    campaign I Need A Better Knife

    YES :) I've always said that I want people to think about my movies long after they've seen them but never said they have to like them. And to your question above: I think interviews with actors could be useful, yes. Could they perhaps discuss why this story speaks to them? How it resonates...

    campaign I Need A Better Knife

    With all respect to @The Lone Banana , I'll just say this: make the movie you want to make, and make it as well as you can. Don't worry about what other people say should or shouldn't be the story, as long as what you tell is important to you. YES, always keep your audience in mind - one of my...

    movies What's the last film you watched? And rate it!

    This is something I've noticed in multiple streamers & also awards/nominations: things that are, by 99% of the population's criteria, drama, are labeled as comedy. It absolutely drives me nuts, as much when I want a drama as when I want a comedy. The first time I remember being really aware of...

    movies What's the last film you watched? And rate it!

    I really (really) liked September 5 , partly I'm sure because I'm a big fan of Peter Sarsgaard, who plays then-head of ABC Sports Roone Arledge in the movie. I also remember very clearly when this attack on the Israeli athletes at the 1972 Munich Olympics took place, so it may not resonate for...

    Likewise. Over the past few years, I've really started to take note of the roles he plays and appreciate him. Probably started with Suits :)

    I right books and I would like to make them into films well not me persay but find someone who dose that kind of things

    The publisher: Xlibris There's nothing wrong with self-publishing - I know plenty of people who have done it to get their story out to the world in a very tough market. But don't make it something that it isn't.

    So...we have an experienced director interested in my current feature project Alison . They're currently reading the script, which is always nerve-racking. It's still not completely clear if we can get the entire producing team on board with hiring this person, but I'm guardedly optimistic. Next...
