Nice edit to the music. I think you had a question but for some reason I'm having trouble thinking right now.

I found this pg. on Hou & in the section "The best place to start," it recommends A Time To Live or Three Times. I was going to start with Three Times because I like Shu Qi. Do you think it's not as good as A Time To Live & the other ones you mention...

Very interesting! About that contract: -Were these typical percentages? I wonder if they’re applicable today. -Around how much did you end up making on it? -Do they tell you when they’ve arranged Cable/TV showings so you can look out for it when it airs? -Does Foreign mean overseas sales of DVDs...

Great list. It did remind me of Ozu. Late Spring is my favorite of his films. I'll have to check out Hou. I look forward to your next one.

At the start I thought it was Tiger Woods :) His 1st line sounds a bit strange, what mic did you use? It's a bit distracting how the music suddenly dips when there's dialog & then springs back up. I prefer a more subtle transition. :36 seems like important dialog & gets buried. Whenever you...

Good luck & have fun. You seem to have a healthy attitude. And don't underestimate those pukey videos. A poison treatment center may be able to use them to help induce vomiting with appropriate victims haha :)

Very cool, Scoopicman, it’s like you have a mini version of Lucas’ ranch & Rodriguez’s compound. How did you get your rep? Your info says you distributed your features yourself. How’d you learn to do that?

Are you sure he knows you’re concerned you won’t be hired because of your higher flight cost? Maybe they have strict accounting procedures. Or maybe the booker doesn’t have the authority to do what you want & doesn’t want the hassle of asking someone else for you. What if you talk to someone...

I would've preferred an ending with a bit more impact but this is really well done, congrats! What films/directors do you think influenced you? And what's your next one about?

That simplifies things in the beginning. I hope you become so good later that you go beyond that & place equal importance on the audio. But I like your thriftiness. I put off buying most things until I finally need it so I can save money for food & bills. Work on making those 1 min. videos...

Dark times. But I think you spent years doing what you loved, & are still doing it. Many people aren't that lucky. I wish you many more years of filmmaking. Maybe some others can chime in so we can continue to brainstorm ideas. Nice stuff, how long have they been there & how is their Amazon...

You're right. I was just talking from personal experience.

Alcove Audio knows what he's talking about. I’m reading that book. It can be hard to understand how much impact audio has on a film because you don’t usually notice good audio, you only notice if it’s bad. You really have to consciously listen to study how clear it is & how all its elements work...

Did you cut them down for better pacing? less fat? Have you tried Vimeo On Demand? I guess you'd need to go & do more promotion overall. Have you gone to horror conventions? Not to spend money on your own booth, but just to talk to people & maybe hand out flyers/info?

Wow drinking coffee that late doesn't keep you from sleeping well?

I hope you're right. But they probably won't pay up without the threat of the class action lawsuit. I basically agree with what you're saying. If you have a good job/situation so you're not relying solely on that $100/mo, & your job/situation & health allow you to have productive years of...

Do it, Ray. If you need help after you write a draft, ask people here. Your potential signers go beyond just YouTube creators. I would sign it :)

Sounds like a good idea actually. Use social media to get organized with other like minded YouTubers & get YouTube to pay up. By changing the rules they're bailing out on paying people.

Thanks for the info. That's interesting. -Do you already plan out the shorter 15 min. version in the script stage so that it's a complete story with no loose ends? -Your film We Bought a Haunted House is 45 mins. Is that the shortest film Amazon will accept? -So if it's 6 cents per hour, &...

What do you mean? Why would this forum ask for proof of my medical degree if we're not supposed to include biology in our discussions? :)
