Hey Clive, I too come from the theater world. 30+ year vet and still hanging on. I created the Lakespeare Theatre Festival so that I could direct Shakespeare in the park because no one within two hours of me was doing it. This will be our third season, if I can continue with it. My film work is...

I shot this with the end goal of selling it to the Spiritual Cinema Circle- Stephen Simon's subscription service. They have over 3,000 members and send out 1 dvd a month with 3 shorts and a feature. The members pay their monthly fee and the filmmakers receive a cut. Then, the film goes into the...

Well, it's nearly there! I have been driving to Cleveland 2 to 4 times a week to work on it. The rough cut took me 4 days (and that was learning Premiere Pro for the first time too). I get the score tomorrow. Monday I will add the sfx shots that have been created by my animator, Brendan, color...

Awesome! THanks for the tip Clive.

I love the whole exchange near the end... "you shot someone?" "yeah"... Knowing the actors just makes that funny for me somehow. :)

As for me, I don't think we need a political forum. I am an active pol myself, but I have no reason to bring my views here. This is about filmmaking. I agree with Indie- overkill.

I'll be there! :)

I love the concept, and Chi-town is only 6 hours or so away from me. If I get in, I will do everything I can to be there. It's in my PR budget to go to one festival a month this year.

btw- Mike, there are many great composers who are looking to get their start just like us. They are willing to work for free or really cheap! I just secured a great pop ballad for the end of "Rubble" from a UK artist, just by asking!

Oops. Sorry Johnny. Due to migraine induced idiocy, I did say that. I have no idea why. I am producing a feature this summer (not minidv!!!) Mike, I will get back you with that script coverage- do I have a deadline?

Just sent in the submission form Thanks!

I've loved him since "Footloose". While you guys likely liked him for his ganster/badman stuff, I liked his comic turns- eg. "To Wong Foo" A loss to the movie world to be sure. :(

Mike, I sent you an email a little bit ago. Please advise if you received it. Adamo, I have gone the same route. I made my first short knowing VERY little about anything but what I wanted to put on screen. I spent the next three years working on others' shorts and features to learn as much as I...

Happy Birthday Ross. Getting invited on ifilm is a great gift. :) btw- I commented on the trailer there yesterday, as did at least one other person, and our comments seem to have gone missing? Ideas?

Mike, I seem to remember you asking for reading advice in another thread. Did you have anyone who is on this board as a pro or semi-pro read your script? Do you feel you need to, because it sounds like you may still be uncertain. Go through this board thoroughly, looking for every pre-prod...

We in Ohio should declare this an official filmmakers' holiday. The traditions should include watching Sonnyboo shorts, other great indie films and "Horrors of War" when available. Happy Birthday Ross. Here's hoping this year of Ross lives up to your dreams!

Most excellent! Thanks Indie. :)

Breaking the trophy-woman trend is something on which I am working. My first feature script contains a family dyanmic in which the women are the focus. It is a family adventure film that is very fem-centric. The second one in my pipeline (am waiting to hear on optioning the book rights) takes...

Whew! Guess I am lucky here. My city and county have no permit rules for film. I called the Mayor's Office and police before my first short and was told to 'go for it' even though we'd be on the sidewalks of very small downtown Port Clinton. The state of Ohio's rules are that if you are in...

So sorry Indie- will fix asap.
