Yep. Melbourne

Hello folks. I will be returning home overseas shortly, to attend to an important, but saddening family matter. Only yesterday, it occurred to me that with this situation I may have a chance for footage for a possible documentary. I have had no chance to do any preparation on this during the...

[I have checked the archives in this forum, and the recommended books deal mainly with features] I am currently working on some short film scripts, and have sought to do some reading on the making of short films, and the writing of short film screenplays. So, I wish to ask my fellow members...

Hello again all. I have been looking at my film script notes, which I have categorised into shorts & features. Time permitting, what I would like to do is to simultaneously develop the 3 shorts (approx. 10 mns each) into well written items, and then try and go film them with the help of my...

Just interested: how many hours work in total has it performed? What is your reason for selling it? Thanks.

Good to see that you have a sense of humor, Rik. And thanks for the solid explanation.

Er...I am quite unfamiliar with the US pricing schemes throughout much of the film industry. While I am sure your payment figures refer to USD, the "35-45 blocks (squares) per week" has me completely bamboozled.

My comments above were in relation to a specific context. Whereas I think most here are undertaking this as strictly film, my own situation was in relation to a collaboration with an artist from another field entirely.

I would like to add my own reflections on this, as someone who has worked on around 8 projects, and is now trying to get his own, first, small project together. I think that even if you have established good connections or relations with those whom you would like to work with, and whom you have...

This is just part of the low down on getting your indie film made!! Whoa--you don't go into this endeavor with your eyes shut, or never having done your homework!!!

If you have someone like a volunteer set designer who comes from a drawing/fine arts background, then I think having them utilise this type of software will save time. Excuse my ignorance, but in the 'old days', wasn't this function usually handled by someone who specifically undertook this work??

It is a display/marketing site only. You have to actually write to her and ask her to email/send you a sample of her work.

Calling filmscheduling I am conducting research into film project management/production management software, and have been seriously looking at sunfrog. I wish to send some questions to the proprietor, or whomever is able to answer my questions. However, it appears that filmscheduling, the IT...

Use a professional researcher This type of question is rather specific and detailed. If you want such answers, then I really recommend that, if you are willing to spend some money, you will get what you want from an experienced, professional researcher. I would recommend calling someone from...

Contracts/Two views propounded In summary, I think that two views/courses of action are being propounded: i) enter into a formal contract with the partner who wishes to continue. YET the opportunity for any recompense (or credit at the least) is negated by the suggestion of renouncing all...

Kudos re. changes The recently introduced changes are very welcome! The user experience re. initial search is much better!! And the re-categorisation/re-grouping goes a long way toward this. However, my testing of the new Computers and Software forum has indicated a few surprises: i) a phrase...

Gentlemen (assuming you all are male): I enquired of the legalities of a situation wherein a dissolution of a colloborator's partnership has occurred, where the one partner wishes to continue the project with the material or intellectual property that has been generated to date, either by...

I do not know the legalities of the situation per se, hence my question. However, I do know that he has mentioned that he has a good mate, a practicing lawyer, who he's known for many years, who lives in the same city etc. I mention this because i am very sure that at the first indication of a...

i) Yes, a verbal agreement. ii) Essentially yes as regards both keeping use of title, ideas etc. The one partner stated in an email his reasons for his inability to continue on the project-both family and other work-related issues. The other rings, sympathises re. family issue, states in...
