    What is a fair distribution percentage for a film?

    I put up the money. I'm still hoping it wins Sundance and the distributors are fighting over me. If I put up the money as producer of the film. I'm sure I can do better than 50/50. This film game is a crazy little dream.

    How could I get my film associated with a charity?

    IndieGoGo is saying you could get some one to sponsor your charity for $100 and they would give the film $80. Essentially giving 20% to the charity before the movie even starts. The charity would give the donator a tax-deductable reciept. Nice.

    When should you start promoting your independent film?

    Ever read a book by Harry Beckwith called Selling the Invisible? Sundance is my goal. I'm an optimistic fresh new film maker. The movie will be finished by early submission time, and will definately be worthy. I also didn't open up your boo boo website. Do you piss on peoples parades their too?

    When should you start promoting your independent film?

    Ballpark figures- 9000 entries- 200 make it. Let's say 2% make it. So, I don't even need connections and I have already upped my odds from 1 in a million. Ironically, it will be edited up around submission time and you probably get a yes or no by December. So, Sundance here I come. I shoot for...

    When should you start promoting your independent film?

    It is cool to get the harsh critiscm. You should see what I would do if we were face to face. I have tossed these thoughts through my mind on each issue. Shooting will begin March 25th, over Spring break and the child will be more of a pretty face than a shakesperean actor. Being the producer...

    When should you start promoting your independent film?

    You guys here are all a bunch of Debbie Downers! Guess thats part of the process. I never once said my director was an asshole. I had an original post asking to explain the director/producer relationship. It's all been worked out. He's very a good director and one reason this film will succeed...

    When should you start promoting your independent film?

    I love the criticism. I was really tired when I type the original post. As we start collecting actors and locations for our film they will be placed on the site. Putting all the actors' name will hopefully get his/her friends and relatives buzzing. Trying to get some cool free locations. Landed...

    When should you start promoting your independent film?

    Was that considered spam because it was on the wrong forum? Either way, gonna be a great film so I'm starting to plan the promotional plan. I am going to try and pre-sell the movie before it comes out. Sorry if this is spam. I've never been called a spammer before. And I like it. Peace.:cool:
