    Is this pompous sounding?

    He doesn't have a version. Thats okay though. I think we resolved the issue...after much yelling lol. We're basically going to re-word it so that it doesn't sound so pompous. Focus on the film having the end goal of being a successful tv show rather than something that will launch our...

    Is this pompous sounding?

    Hey guys, So once again, my partner and I are having an argument over this sales copy for our upcoming Kickstarter campaign. We both hate talking about ourselves, but we're well aware of the fact that people who fund campaigns want to invest in something that's going to work. Well, I wanted...

    Sales Copy for Bloggers and News Sources

    It's okay. You didn't offend me :) Sounds like a hard niche to find. Perhaps looking into communities for introverts, psychologists, neurologists, etc would be helpful. Its good to get specific with your niche, but too specific may pigeon-hole you. If you look into other niches that overlap...

    Finding a furnished house to film in

    The advice isn't terrible - I think all of it is solid. Sfoster, yes I think we can certainty film the exteriors at a separate area, but interiors in a row home simply won't cut it I'm afraid. Using the actors is an interesting idea. Once I am ready to cast I will consider this option for...

    Casting Known Talent

    Ok guys so has anyone here had experience casting known talent? I'm not talking about super famous, A - List, I mean just someone who has some known films/tv shows under their belt. I have an idea for someone for a specific role, but I am unsure on how to get the script to them. Most...

    Sales Copy for Bloggers and News Sources

    Well, that's why we're making this press release because we have several contacts who may be interested in writing a piece about this project. We spent months identifying our niche and found some pretty cool avenues we can work in. Of course, there's no easy route. But if we can do it right...

    This isn't for publicity. Otherwise I would have shown you a link to something. Should I have not included the name? Sorry about that. I'm genuinely interested in your input, I swear.

    Sales Copy for Bloggers and News Sources

    We're getting ready to Kickstart for a proof-of-concept piece for this pitch we're preparing for and part of that involves getting press. So I came up with this simple press release that touches on what we're doing and why our niche may be interested in this film (scifi/futurist crowd). I was...

    lighting Small Prision Infirmary - Need Lighting Advice

    Hi Guys, So I will be filming a short film that takes place in a small Prison infirmary. I wanted to get some expert opinions on lighting set ups for this. I want to evoke a "sickly" feel - standard florescent lighting, dry, sickly. Here is the space in question...

    Finding a furnished house to film in

    Hey Sfoster - sorry for the late response I've been swamped this month. Thanks for your suggestions - we need the house for probably 2 - 3 days of shooting. You're right the houses aren't nice enough and will be too small (aka Rowhomes, I need suburban houses). I tried the MD film office...

    Finding a furnished house to film in

    Hi guys, I just had a quick question I wonder the producers on here could help answer. I am going to be shooting a pilot episode for a webseries in the next year and am looking for a house to shoot in. No one I know has any decent looking houses and I am stumped as to where I could begin...

    Partner and I are fighting over this scene...What do you think?

    Ah, I see what you mean now. It is a bit on the nose and unnatural...sigh. Okay, looks like it's back to the drawing board. Thanks a bunch for your feedback, guys!

    Partner and I are fighting over this scene...What do you think?

    Hey everyone, So my partner and I are kind of fighting over this scene and we both can't seem to agree with each other, which is why i'd be cool to get your input on this particular scene. So, a bit of a back story. This is the beginning of the film. We show a dream sequence of a very...

    Dreamers and Escape Artists How Global Warming Will Destroy Us as the Quantum Era Re-Builds Us. I’m a bit of an outlandish guy. Perhaps it’s because I’m completely out of my mind. Or maybe, I’m just a guy who thinks a little differently. After all I am a writer, but I’m also a futurist and...

    What do you think of this crowdfunding pitch??

    It's too boring and it seems to ramble on, so it was difficult for me to understand what the movie was about. they need more cuts, different angles, maybe some b-roll of what they've done so far and some behind the scenes stuff.
