    campaign I Need A Better Knife

    I looked at the page and have some thoughts. Since Jordan successfully crowd funded a previous project I think it would be helpful if you included a link to that finished film. The current project might be something that will be of interest to people beyond your current circle - so show us...

    Chris, that was my take on Homestead. It got too preachy in the last act. Otherwise a good movie. I'm big a fan of McDonough - one of those great character actors who elevates any project he's in.

    I finally saw "Juror #2". It played in only two local theaters and only for a couple of weeks so I missed it. Sad that Warner essentially dumped this terrific film. Maybe it was always supposed to be a streaming release but usually the advertising is "For two weeks only for Academy...

    Very interesting stuff. The "supercut" aspect of this is fascinating.

    The AM folder goes back to 2011 and there are 230 emails in there. I don't remember when I made the folder but I wanted to keep all our emails because of the repeated answers to the same questions. I have project folders but he is the only individual with a folder. I suspect I'm in for another...

    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

    Okay. I just thought as a filmmaker I might be able to help you make one of them into a film. But I accept that you don't care what I think. I hope you find someone to make them into films.

    For those following along: Several years ago I set up an "Aspiring Mogul" folder and directed all email from our Mogul there. And then I forgot about it. I finally clicked on the folder and there it was. Along with a couple from 2019 and one from 2020. No wonder he said "and, please, reply".

    Doing the same thing over and over expecting different results. Councilor, $2,500 is not the final number for the shoot day. It isn't even the total of my extemporaneous estimate. We have slipped right back into that circle I told myself I was not going to engage in again. This can be shot...

    My end of the year prediction: Another three weeks of this. Then four months until Mogul asks the "How much...?" question again. Shocking how we all fall into this loop. This proves beyond a reasonable doubt that I am crazy. I should have picked a different career. Is it too late consider...

    Off the top of my head: Rent a meeting room in a hotel Bring in someone who owns two or three cameras. $500 Two "crew" to set up some coffee and snacks. And help out with the park scene. $250 each A "director" to wrangle the day. $500 I'd say all in you're looking at a generous $2,500 for the...

    I understand that you believe clear writing with proper spelling is not important, but I think it is. It's clear that others here think the same. Maybe you can find more opportunities for the books by promoting them with clear writing and spelling. I know I am not willing to spend $10 to read a...

    I know that one of the reasons you want to do this is to see if you really want to be a filmmaker. Filming a rehearsal/read-through won't give you any reasonable look at filmmaking. You need to make a short film. But first you need to make a decision: Do you want to be the producer? Do you want...

    I haven't received an email from you yet. Which one did you use? Frankly I would love to keep this alive on the boards. Could be helpful to others. And for 15 years you have been to busy to accept my help.
