    Lucine Entertainment

    Lucine... I think Lucine are probably pretty much the bottom of the barrel when it comes to distributors. I have found quite a number of film festivals and cinema clubs who don't charge anything to screen your work. Broadcast sales people are quite a different commodity to deal with. I have to...

    Lucine Entertainment

    strange... Yes I think it's a scam, no discussion about distribution. I asked if they could offer me credit to be repaid by any sales as they said they liked the screener. As soon as you try to discuss it with them, the discussion is over with a 'hope you find a market for your film', which...

    Lucine Entertainment

    I was wondering if anybody has had dealings with Lucine Entertainment operating out of a po box in Hollywood? I was recently invited to send a screener in and they wanted to charge me $450 to make a 'poster'. When I said I didn't have it they said that the regular price was $1500. Has anybody...

    Going Dutch, a journey into the unknown..

    'Going Dutch' features the culture shock which our intrepid presenter Mark Fox-Smith had when he was sent by us to Friesland in the very north of the Netherlands, in order to investigate their strange, even slightly insane customs when celebrating the passing of the old year into the new. An...

    SHORT FILMS WANTED - free television opportunities

    well.. Well if you say so. I would never sign a contract which said that the distributor would be obliged to report on something as vague as '...any significant sales...' which sounds like an attempt to misreport the TRUE figure. I picked lots of holes in their contract purely from the pont of...

    SHORT FILMS WANTED - free television opportunities

    Mind Ignites Mind Ignites or Imaginities were nasty people to deal with. I was invited to send a DVD which I did, then no reposnse for months which is pretty normal. When I tried to make enquiries I was palmed off to a free-lancer on the other side of the Australian continent, whom they...

    Proposal to the Board: Supporting our troops

    I don't think they would really want to be entertained by some Indie film-makers (me included) at this stage of their lives. I think it's a nice gesture but it is based on a mis-understanding and an assumption of what other people want. My view isn't all that radical really...

    Proposal to the Board: Supporting our troops

    I think it means that you just don't want to hear or consider another point of view. The troops aren't coming home for Christmas, don't you understand that yet?? And I don't think they really care about the support given to them by some indie film-makers, I think they would quite like to come...

    Proposal to the Board: Supporting our troops

    support of the armed forces... I think you need to look at things as they really are, the war is over in Iraq and the armed forces have now been given the job of being 'The Police' which an army tends to be rather bad at, see thirty years of the British Army being 'the police' in Northern...

    Proposal to the Board: Supporting our troops

    necessary... With respect, the invasion was illegal, there were no WMD, President Hussein was backed by the USA and therefore no threat..why have a war? Great fodder for a doco, shame that lightweight Michael Moore got there first....

    Proposal to the Board: Supporting our troops

    War in Iraq Why doesn't the USA end its illegal occupation of Iraq, the locals don't want your army there, isn't it obvious by now? I think a good film starts with that idea...

    tv Going Dutch a documentary for TV...

    Proof that a competent documentary can be produced on a nothing underground budget against all the odds. New Year's Eve will never be quite the same once you have seen this film, a reaction to all the tedious voyeuristic six parter dross which passes for documentary on TV in the UK these days...
