    Best Short Film Competition - EVER!

    You can't sign up as a writer and a filmmaker in the same competition. This keeps people from cheating. this way you really want the best of the other group. Your judging and feedback will be more genuine.

    Specific things to look out for when licensing footage for a music video

    I think stock footage still has stipulations on # of impressions. If his video goes viral you should earn more...if you want. I do wonder though, is starting with your lawyer first to create a deal more advantageous then coming with their contract and asking for it to be reviewed. hmmm Yup...

    Purchasing a script VS. Writing your own.

    What are you talking about WILLIS? First to your original question: You have to calculate, like everything in life, time versus quality. You could redo your kitchen or you could hire someone to do it for you. I'm sure you could go on YouTube and learn everything and then do it yourself. Your...

    Natural filmmaking without rehersals?

    It's not that i think it's better or worse, but realistically, i've met very few actors that are so quick, so into their character (immediately) that they know what they are doing in isolation.

    Surviving Family on Amazon Prime!

    If you don't go on itunes first, it's not put in their 'new Release' category and just gets put in the catalogue and can be missed. Then amazon and hulu. Unless you get broadcast.... if you get broadcast, you can still do transactional (as opposed to subscriptions (netflix)). It's a pretty good...

    One selfish down voteR will not likely affect the overall average score. But in a really tight race it might. But, let's say everyone starts doing it. Assume you have 20 assignments and all 20 people are also 'scoring backwards' (best script is scored lowest). We just want to avoid this. We...

    Yes there is a reason. You might get smart and try to down vote others as you are no longer trying to find the best from the other group. Does that make sense? You will have not conflict of interest.

    What are some of the most common ways that films are financed and distributed?

    Very Short version: There are three levels of debt. Depending on where you live, the bank recognizes those contracts as assets you can redeem for credit. You have to pay for the credit mind you... lol. Bank gets paid first and is out first. There are 15 or so org's that look at your cast and...
