Somebody who doesn't know how to do it, apparently. It's pretty bad.

haha. I really hope you posted that on the actual youtube page. The footage I made blows any of that out of the water by a long shot, that's why I make sure to tell people I had absolutely nothing to do with that video. But, the problem is that everyone kisses her ass and tells her how great...

Yes, I suppose that is something I could do. If it's ever finished, that is. This producer has no idea what she's doing or how to get things done in a professional manner. I'd be surprised if it's ever finished within her low budget.

Please refer to the previous response. The producer refused to give me the hard drive with all the footage, even to check dailies or schedule pickups needed. She also refused to give me the the contact info for the DIT guy. She has everything kept away from my hands intentionally. Trust me, it...

What a great, positive way to think about it. Thank you very much. The dp does have all the footage, except for any audio. So if i cut it together, if would be poor audio, which I'm not really excited about. I was supposed to edit, but she refused to give me the hard drive after the shoot and...

Ya, that's what I was pretty much thinking. I'll have to chock if up to a learning experience and run away when the red flags are presented. It was more of an opportunity for myself to further my created talent and practice what I've learned on previous shoots to get to this point. Just another...

Yes... Got that. Anything else you could offer up, though?

This is also part of the problem. The only thing signed was a nondisclosure agreement. Nobody was oriented with a contract or one even mentioned. One would think on a "pro" shoot one would be signed before stepping on set, but I was under the guise of helping out a fellow film maker who was...

I knew this comment was going to happen. I'd still like to salvage the footage for my reel, at least. But, no, I will not be working with her again.

I recently signed on to direct 2 episodes of a web series for a local producer/actress. There were several red flags right off the bat... Script Format issues (ie. Scenes were labeled as EXT but read "Actor walks inside..... etc." Things like that throughout. Made no sense.)[/LIST} Didn't...

Hey, I would love to collaborate. I have a head swirling with ideas, but can't seem to get everything on paper. Check out my directing demo reel and get in touch with me. https://vimeo.com/58436116

Thanks for the feedback. We had been building an audience through the festivals we played at, and even had the majority of people say "You need to get up on kickstarter! You'll kill it!", we also have been pushing though our social media outlets, websites, youtube/vimeo links, even have a...

Hey everyone, I know this is the topic that literally EVERY filmmaker foams at the mouth to find answers for. Here's what I'm doing... We wrote a feature length horror/slasher flick a couple years ago for two reasons, 1. To make our first feature film along the lines of some of our favorite...

I do need that audience with the money, though. If you have any ideas to getting my product to that audience, please let me know! I'd really love to finish this film and direct the next, and so on. :)

See, that goes against the research I've been doing for the past few months. They say we should get the bulk in the first week to know if we will be successful. It would make sense to get the bulk towards the end, but what is quite scary is we are not even at 1%, and according to the KickTraq...

We've gotten positive feed back from the film festival where we were nominated for Best Short and Best Editing by working actor's/C-Grade celebrities, Just recently got positive feedback from the host of Film Riot, a few on here in the Screener section, and just about anyone who has watched the...

So, in no effort to see defeated, it's looking like we are not going to reach our fundraising goal on Kickstarter for my first feature film. What do you guys do when you have to bounce back from a failed project to follow your dream? Or, can you help suggest better ways of getting this funded...

I just launched the kickstarted page to help finish HUNTER. You can that out at - http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/fdprod/hunter-finish-the-feature-film If you could help spread the word, or even want to help by contributing, that would be amazingly helpful! With your help we CAN finish...

Thank you very much! That's the exact reaction that I wanted! I'm working on the kickstarter page now, so I will post it when it's ready. Feel free to share it with a friend to help us get word out.

Yes, it is Weston. I had a spaced moment for some reason. My mistake. Ya, that's what's great about the book. She gives so many tools to familiarize oneself with for any situation or actor type. I'm really enjoying what I'm reading. It makes me want to apply and test every individual tactic...
