In my previous drafts, I had my heroine running out of time in the third act, trying to achieve her goal (standard hollywood films.) Now, I've decided to have the audience see her lose the battle and instead, please her mother but then in the last scene, we see that she's been actually doing...

I couldn't help but noticing that most of the oscar nominated films premiered in winter and most of them chose to premier at the toronto international film festival. Does this mean that as a first time filmmaker, it's best to carefully target a specific festival if you're, let's say, confident...

I just started building my website so I'm not really "with it" yet. How can actors upload their headshots? I use front office. Is there a certain software I need to purchase? Thanks much!!!

I just published my home page. It's still work-in-progress mind you. Check it out and let me know what you all think. Here is the link at www.warriorgirlfilms.com

I'm working on my home page and was wondering if it is wise to publish my log line and synopsis. I'm in preprod and have set a tentative production date (January).

Besides Cannes and Sun Dance, which fests usually produce award winning films?

Does anyone have a list of main feature film festival deadlines? Some of the festival websites don't have that information like Toronto Film fest.

I find it very hard to keep up with the filmmaker's necessities like new digi cams or powerbooks moneywise. Can you all share how you afford to keep up with the technology e.g. how much roughly you put aside every mounth. I've been putting aside about $200 a month but that doesn't seem to go...

Now that I've paid powweb to host my site, I'm now stuck with building the site. I've no clue whatsoever. Any pointers? Or maybe someone here can do it for me with a little fee or something. thanks much!!!

Finally, I've scrapped enough money for a website. I've already got a domain name and now my task is to find the right price for the site (this site is going to be the official site for my feature). Can anyone recommend the website that offers decent fees for websites? thanks much

As I was reading the production notes on "Pieces of April", I came across something that caught my attention: "Cameras were set to 4.3 aspect ratio and kept in interlaced scale mode" I know what 4.3 aspect ratio is but I'm not exactly sure what the whole thing means. They used three...

Does anyone know of any sites where I can access preproduction and budgeting software for free if possible?

I'm quitting my job in a week. YEH! The reason for this drastic move is to concentrate 150% on my project which I'm hoping (fingers crossed) to start photography later this year in South Africa. My script is ready. I've my prospectos ready (if it doesn't pen out - credit cards). I've...

Are we affected by this? IMDB has the article

Here is another one for you lot: I have a character who enters the film off screen. As soon as this character is on screen, I do a short description. My question is, before screen time, should I refer to the character by name or just refer to her as female then later refer to the name? Am I...

I'm in the process of tweaking the script that I'll be filming this fall. I know that I've to use "day" for day scenes and "night" for evening'night scenes. I've several scenes where the main character has to be wearing same clothing so I've used "later" on several occasions. Does it matter...

This might sound silly but where do I click if I want to quote a post. I tried right-clicking on my mouse but no luck. Help!!! Thanks much!!!

To impress potential financiers, how long does the chart have to be. I've already compiled a list of twenty budget and box office gross. Do I need more?

BTW, is a "tent" scene ext or int? The tent is open.

This is a draft of my top sheet for my prospectus. Any comments? I'll be using three panasonics; PRODUCTION BUDGET...
