Looks great ... what next? Looks great (from the photos and the articles) ... what's next? Are you planning to edit together a single episode or two? Do you have a distributor (cable channel) in mind? I have been toying with shooting a reality pilot myself but didn't want it to sit on the...

'Before joining the family business, an aimless college graduate spends his last day in town with friends retreating from the realities of the world by dreaming of adventure and escape.'

A horror film with nudity will sell (even if it's bad). Just call Asylum. In hindsight this is the kind of movie I would have started with. My phone would be ringing off the wall (since the writing and technical quality and acting would have all been great). Sell the bad movie and this is your...

All true ... this is all true. Our movie is a talkie. "Dinner with Andre" with bullets. Two guys at a table. Makes a better play. It's hard to categorize and therefore hard to sell. If we got picked up at even ONE of the "bigger" festivals ... we would get courted by a distributor/rep. As it...

BY agent, are you referring to a Producer's Rep? Even so, all the contacts I've had with successful filmmakers (they have produced and sold their movies) recommended we get a rep. It's REALLY hard to get your foot in the door without someone knowing which door needs to be opened. As it turned...

I get the "QuickTime 5 or later to view the videos" error on some and a big question mark on others. I'm on a PC and have QuickTime 7.04 loaded, BTW.

Custom Flix Option I guess if you're making between $7-9 per unit, I'd rather opt for less money to NOT have to think about it. They also handle all returns (in case the DVD doesn't work). I have sent them our master, a CD with the sleeve art and face art and they will send me a proof of the...

We sold our DVD through a custom shopping cart at one time and it cost a fortune (fees, hosting, etc etc). Switched the whole thing over to PayPal and it's been great. Check it out (and buy 500 of them): www.cayugalakewinecountry.com With our narrative, we are in the beginning stages of...

Anyone here had to get this? How much does it cost? How involved is it to get this? We are working on two distribution deals and both require this (and our budget is stretched BEYOND zero). Any advice would be greatly appreciated! Eric

In an effort to allow us to resend our hard work to some of the festivals that overlooked our feature length film, "Waiting on Alphie," I convinced the director to re-cut the movie into an 18-minute short. Already, it's garnered MUCH more attention than the original film! There is a 66Mb WMV...

Does anyone on this board, or does anyone on this board know anyone, who can trasfer our movie to a Digi-Beta tape? We would send a drive (with the AVI file) to whomever and (my guess is) they can push play and record. We would pick up any costs associated with this but do not have a big budget...

We have edited a 15-minute "Behind the Scenes" of the making of "Waiting on Alphie" for our anniversary screening this weekend. I think you'll enjoy seeing this as it pulls together auditions, rough clips, cast and crew for our feature released last August. This is a 54Mb WMV file so you might...

I actually liked it as well, with the exception of the ending. Somehow the Girl Scouts need revenge. You could even do something at this point in post. END -- FADE UP FROM BLACK: NEWSPAPER HEADLINE: Local Man Dies from Peanut Allergy Girl Scout Cookies Were to Blame Then, at least, I would...

Tune in 93.5 FM Ithaca (New York) to WVBR to hear my guest DJ stint Friday, April 7 at 2 PM EST. I'm spinning tunes from the soundtrack to "Waiting on Alphie." Should be fun! If you don't live in Ithaca, you can listen over the internet on: http://wvbr.com/live.html Our soundtrack to our movie...

We just got word that "Gus and Alphie" will also be airing on TV in Manhattan this Saturday night (technically Sunday morning 1 AM). We are excited about this one as the viewership could be huge (since it's the city that never sleeps). You can watch the program online from the following link...

We have arrived. Our short version of our feature will be airing on WCOX-15 in Macon, Georgia. http://www.wcox15.com/shows/indieshowcase.htm Check out the cool montage on their home page. If you know anyone in Macon ... be sure they tune in!

I would replace Julia Roberts with Dustin Hoffman (but I realize this list is more "star power" and bankabilty than talent). The 100 Greatest Performances in the new issue if Premier is REALLY excellent. This list focuses on truly fantastic performances in screen (and would not include Julia...

That's fantastic. Really. From the clever title to the writing and acting. When was this shot and did it ever make festival?

I have a list of the top 20 festivals and have sent our feature-lenght movie to them all. Now we have a short that's about ready to run the '06-'07 circuit and wondered what this board thought might be the top 10 festivals specific to SHORTS. I know all the 20 will accept shorts (and we'll hit a...

BTW, Clive, if you want to let the board know your idea for our film please go right ahead (as long as you don't reveal who gets shot ... but I don't think you know anyway). I'm back from Mexico ... all tanned and relaxed!
