As a side note, I think the lack of consideration given by directors to actors is quite interesting. When you watch a lot of low budget films, one of the most glaring problems is the acting, which tends to be poor, although the fact its usually friends and family doesn't help. Thats always...

Cheers mate, I've just ordered that book, should be a good read. I've also picked up this book as well which seems to be pretty good: http://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/ASIN/0941188248/203-3080835-5349536?%5Fencoding=UTF8 Any advantage in helping you become a better director is always useful.

That probably explains it, I actually missed half of the program, I only picked up on it a bit later on as I was watching Godfather 1 which was on the other channel :D

Thats a fair enough reason I guess, but I'd have thought that as an actor Ian McKellan would have preffered a bit more than that, guess not. I couldn't see myself doing that though.

Thats what I was meaning by its no mean feat in itself :D Poorly phrased I think, but cheers for the extra info anyway, its still useful. Something I forgot to point out earlier which is rather interesting, I saw a documentary about the Ian McKellan recently and it was showing him on the Lord...

I'd definately buy any book you wrote, as you have some absolutely amazing tips. It would be great to be kept updated on the progress of any such book as I know it would help a lot of people here. I'm in the same kind of boat as you, despite not having any acting or theathre background, I am...

Wow, those were excellent. You must be a brilliant director because if you can work as well as you do in theory, you'd get breathtaking performances :D Cheers

Excellent video mate, well done. The guys an excellent singer as well

Not said to be suspicious, must have been a heart attack or something. Such a sad loss, RIP

Happy Birthday :D

For some reason the site/downloads still doesn't work for me :(

I can't get these PDF's to work, is the site down?

I do believe that an increase in stronger female leads would come if there was an exponential increase in female writers/directors.

Domino, although that didn't work out too well :D I see where you are coming from though, and it will probably take a turn along that route soon, I think though that people would have a hard time seeing a female Jean Claude Van Damme. It would be interesting though, compared to the old films...

Rather nice site actually, flashy. Shows the benefits to having computer geniuses on board :D And the film itself sounds interesting, will be interested to hear more about it

Rip :(

Welcome :D

Speaking of things like this, it would be very interesting to see forms of colloboration between forum members. Look at the Dogme movement and such, things that united filmmakers in the repective countries through the forum, allowing for colloboration and such.

Agreed Knightly, I'm not really someone who gets bogged down by technical aspects of anything, but I do want to learn the basics just so I can look like I know what I am talking about, as I am not naturally the most technical person despite having a computer systems degree. I prefer to look...

Just reading through this as I try to catch up on the old posts, and wow, amazing filmy, you seem incredibly well grounded which I am sure will take you far. Your 4 act structure idea sounds absolutely fascinating though, I'm sure we'll here about it in the future. A success story is the...
