    Are my ambitions realistic?

    Maybe you can research what countries outside Greece have a lot of companies that do your kind of work. Be open to working on commercials too. It would be great if you had a friend or relative who lives near those companies & will let you stay with them. Feutus Lapdance's example of Brandon Li...

    Harvey Weinstein fired from The Weinstein Co.

    Absolutely sfoster, I'd say lack of empathy contributes to predatory practices toward women & also business. Another reason for a powerful person being predatory is because a corporation's main goal is to increase their profits, every year. That's tremendous pressure on a board of directors who...

    Harvey Weinstein fired from The Weinstein Co.

    Ya comedy is tough, it's so subjective. Just from reading that, he's riding a fine line. I can see how it's offensive these days, but he does make sense in his own weird fucked up way. It's the sort of thing someone says when they're chilling, getting high with friends. And Dave is usually...

    Watched Part 1, funny stuff! You're doing some cool voice acting here. Thoughts from someone that doesn't know the game: 6:00 It might be good to amp up your emotion here. 7:00 I didn't understand why this guy was attacking you so maybe a little explanation included inside one of the jokes...

    The Disaster Artist

    -Thanks directorik. -Interesting, micster. I guess I was thinking of something like what he revealed near the start, something that would make me feel more sympathy for him. You're right, BBfilms. I was just thinking as a non-cult fan. And the filmmakers would probably like to expand the...

    The Disaster Artist

    It's good overall, you're just interested by who this strange guy is & what he's doing. The last third's pretty good. I liked the brief insight into his past near the start. I wish we learned more about him, even if they just invented something to make it more emotionally satisfying. Its...

    Will these screenplays be rejected?

    Great video, Feutus Lapdance. I don't know if you could really say the Ep. IV script sucked, the underlying story is good. But Lucas definitely benefitted from having co-writers. And that includes Ep. IV. Even though he's the only credited writer, it was still "rewritten" in the edit. The...

    Will these screenplays be rejected?

    Yes Panos, developing the special FX was a big part of getting it sold. But so was his success with American Grafitti. Star Wars wasn't an easy sell. "United Artists... Universal passed. Disney, ironically, passed. But then Fox agreed to finance the film as a means to craft a relationship with...

    Will these screenplays be rejected?

    American Graffiti's profit is amazing. Wiki says "The film had cost only $1.27 million to produce and market, but yielded worldwide box office gross revenues of more than $55 million."

    cinematography Who plays the greater role in determining how a film is shot - the director or DP?

    Lots of good answers from people here. M6L, you can get a basic idea of why certain angles are used if you study good films, read books, watch tutorials, special features, etc. You can start to have ideas of what might be good for your story. When you rehearse with actors, you keep in mind the...

    What kind/type of film would be your dream to work on?

    Serling was such an amazing writer. I'm on TCM a lot. Have you seen 'Night of the Hunter' & 'Night and the City'? They weren't on TCM but Hunter's really good, & City has great shots.

    What kind/type of film would be your dream to work on?

    But your last feature was Action Sci-Fi too, wasn't it? Ya it seems everyone chases the most recent successes. Horrors showed you can make good profit with a low budget so people will keep making them until the next thing that makes profit.

    The Importance of Want vs. Need in Screenwriting

    Shia LeBeouf the Story Thief

    Sia's Chandelier video is pretty cool too. She has an interesting back story. Hey Sia & Shia, does that mean he's a stand in for her in this video? Shia can do what Winona Ryder did. Years after her public meltdown, people started giving her small roles, & she showed she could do her job & work...
