    High School Students Making Feature Length Film!

    Thanks for posting your work guys. It's really inspiring. I'm part of a motley crew of middle aged people getting into filmmaking and tv production with almost no budget and no training as well. If you young whipersnappers can do it... I guess there's hope for us older folks.

    NDA or other protection before "Pitching?"

    Helpful video. I'll watch the rest in his series and consider signing up for his site (if it's reasonable.) I have talent 'interested' in the project, and some of them have shot some 'sizzle' footage with me. Another useful site: http://www.producersguild.org/?sizzle2 Anyone know a 'line...

    NDA or other protection before "Pitching?"

    It's hard to imagine consulting an entertainment lawyer before a 'pitch' but I've gone ahead and called a few local entertainment attorneys for that 'free consultation,' they sometimes offer. It'll be interesting to hear what they recommend for a situation like this. Good questions - I wish I...

    NDA or other protection before "Pitching?"

    I'm very upset. Someone videotaped the 'pitch meeting,' and posted it on the internet. You guys might as well see it. http://youtu.be/amnt-Ezt9Os ,: I'm the blonde in the middle... (joke!)

    NDA or other protection before "Pitching?"

    I did the pitch, but not to the original guy. I ended up pitching to a prod co, that wants me to bring back a detailed treatment for the pilot. No terms or money was discussed. Nothing was signed. Friendly coffee chat.

    NDA or other protection before "Pitching?"

    Not really, but I don't know the protocol for pitching. Is it expected (an NDA or something similar) or not? I guess that's what I'm looking for.

    NDA or other protection before "Pitching?"

    I'm pitching a Reality TV concept to an Emmy Winning 'retired' Hollywood producer soon. Should I make him sign something before handing over the 2 page synopsis? I've already registered it on WGA. Dream Large

    not half bad for five minutes of work! I like the concept of Caged - can you boil it down to one line (or 2 at most?)

    Just finished the poster for my upcoming short, Passing By. What do you think?

    Beautiful poster. only thing that concerns me... All that white space on the top might get lost on a wall - unless it's framed.

    NBC Cancels DO NO HARM

    I just saw this article. http://insidetv.ew.com/2013/02/08/nbc-cancels-do-no-harm/ Funnily enough, I was browsing my On Demand Programming recently and noticed Episode 2 was up - and I decided NOT to see it. Which suprised me, because I enjoyed the pilot. Perhaps I intuitively knew the show...

    Need Head Shots Tips

    I need to get a good head shot (or two) for my upstart acting career. I have almost no Acting experience to put on the back of my headshot print (yet), [other than doing a radio show and stand up comedy] so I'm thinking of skipping the usual large Head Shot piece and starting off with a smaller...
