    Analysing a Pakistani Script ??

    My suggestion would be to do something that utilizes what's different in Pakistan and Europe or the U.S. Don't try to be so original that you push yourself out of the potential markets that you want to go into. Try a boy fights his way out of poverty story. Try a love story. The parents...

    Why do you think the festivals weren't into this?

    High Deaf - Are you speaking for the festival that you were a part of or every single festival in the world? Are you saying that there is not a film festival that doesn't have professionals reviewing the films? Because if you are, you're wrong. Chris

    archived-videos Can you tell what's going on?

    Question 1: Why does Tim write to the newspaper? Because he got the suggestion from one of the girls. Question 2: Patty slams her hands on the table and says "I told you. See I told you". Tim is about to speak but gets cut-off by Melissa. If Tim had a line of dialogue what would he have said...

    Why do you think the festivals weren't into this?

    Nice job WS! Very intense. As for your question, I don't think anyone really has the answer to that one. I've been turned down by a ton of festivals. Sometimes it's language, sometimes it's partial nudity. I think that the most important thing to remember about festivals is that the first...

    Developing a :30 - :70 documentary - advice?

    Do what you do best. Don't worry about things that you can't control, and control the things that you can. For some stress works as a great motivator, for some stress works as a great disabler. Figure out which one you are and either get rid of the stress or use it to your advantage. I'm of...

    Developing a :30 - :70 documentary - advice?

    That makes a big difference! I guess I've gotten used to the H:M:S, as opposed to just hours and minutes. Now with 30 to 70 minutes, you can fit everything that you want to know about your school into that time frame, but one thing that you might consider, the judges of your effort are going...

    Under age?

    Good for you Jeremy! There's a "window of seriousness", that seems to be after your age, and before mine! The thing is, if they take you seriously or not, be creative and make it happen anyway. When you've got the product, they've got to take you seriously (alright, they don't, but who...

    Developing a :30 - :70 documentary - advice?

    That's a lot to cover in 30 to 70 seconds! I'd consider getting a little more specific or narrower subject...through the eyes of one student, the communications department or something like that. With a subject so large, you'll only be able to do a commercial for the school, not a documentary...

    Why will you invest in my project ??

    AD...I have to say that your teacher is correct in a very limited way, and incorrect in a very important way. From a purely artistic standpoint, and new face for a unique character is good. You don't have any preconceived thoughts as to what the character is about, and you can surprise the...
