    Finding someone to shoot my script - Cleveland, Ohio.

    Well, I haven't been around in a little while, specially since the birth of my first born almost 9 months ago. In the meantime I was able to finish a short script, which I was hoping to shoot myself, but honestly the more I think about it the more I realize I'm not ready. Therefore I'm...

    archived-videos promo for my Web Series

    I liked the camera work but the trailer didn't capture my attention... The girls kissing, although sweet(I'm a guy after all) seemed like it had no reason to be there. The two guys looked lime they were trying way too hard to look hard, and the hats just did it for me. I find those extremely...

    Feedback Appreciated

    Thank you for the help. I did used Celtx, which I learned about here, unfortunately I didn't know how to properly link the format. I now see that you used the (code) input to do so, lesson learned. Reading the way you redid the script, I have a better understanding of it. Make it clean, to the...

    If a director asks if you believe in doing nude scenes, what should I say?

    So because it's an indie it shouldn't have some form of nudity? Let's say the exact same film had been done by a big studio, would they be okay to show some nudity? Why can't we act like adults and take each script/scene/situation as they come? If the nudity scene has no merit and it's only...

    Looking for feedback on my screenplay. Tips/advice?

    Yes, I have read all the freebies from reelauthors.com and they are truly great. But for the sake of this script/thread, what would you recommend the writer do? If this was his idea for an opening scene, how could he make it better? Start fresh and use a different scene or change this one to a...

    Looking for feedback on my screenplay. Tips/advice?

    The question is, how could he rewrite the script in order to get your attention? If the character has a mundane job and is an average joe, how can something dramatic happen? Maybe start the script with a major action/sequence, like a halfway point, and then jump back to the beginning which is...

    Can I post ideas here

    I like the "Sliced" idea also, but you have to offer the contestants a good amount of money for their troubles. Here's what I would do, you can use any of these ideas if you want, just credit me somehow :) Sliced -- The Reality Cooking Show That's A Cut Above. Four contestants battle for a...

    archived-videos Short Sci-fi/Thriller film "ABDUCTION"

    I really liked the short. You definitely grabbed my attention :yes: One thing I didn't like was the high volume of the sound effects, to me they were too loud and distracting(actually kind of annoying).

    Short Film that I made

    I enjoyed the looks of the short, good job :) A couple of things I noticed; As posted above, the dark skies and no vehicle lights. The actors pointing the flashlights in one direction but looking at a different location. When looking for something, especially the guy(tracker?), the light and...

    Okay if you are portraying him a lonely, you need more than just two seconds of the guy walking. Also, if it's a post-apocalyptic time, I would think he would be a bit more dirty and unkempt. Also have him pull his pants up, it's extremely frustrating to see that when you are trying to sell me...
