service I'd like to help Indie Filmmakers gain more Exposure

[The Quick Flick Critic]

Hi indietalk Community-

My name's John and I truly love shining light on the independent film world. My reviews and interview questions are consistently thoughtful and genuine, reflecting the true joy in my work. This, from the many indie filmmakers I've worked with themselves, as well.

My fair and reasonable compensation is $30 per review with interviews for my time, effort, enthusiasm, talent and my valued readership following earned, cultivated and constantly expanding over several years. My current online platforms attract an ever-growing contingent of passionate indie movie fans and include The Quick Flick Critic, The Movie Blog, Twitter, IMDb, Facebook and WordPress. I am the only writer on the enormously popular The Movie Blog staff who consistently contributes pieces of high-quality spotlighting independent projects and the people behind them.

I email a brief list of questions to filmmakers after watching their production via the private screener link I ask to graciously provide. I'll include all the platforms through which the film may be watched in my review, as well. Turnaround on my end is prompt.

I'm thrilled to help give indie film artists and their work increased exposure. May I look forward enthusiastically to teaming with you in doing so?

Thanks, Kind Regards & A Glorious New Year for ALL of America !

Is there a specific requirement to get a review from you in general?
Also, the first link doesn't work.

Is there a specific requirement to get a review from you in general?

Yup. $30

 

[The Quick Flick Critic]

Yes. I need a screener link please. And $30 payment to PayPal for inclusion on all of the sites I post on. More and more indie filmmakers all the time are happy to work with me and be interviewed about their projects. I always like to help. Also, try this link please: ***NEW CONTENT! added to "DOCUMENTARIES" on 1/14/21*** (thequickflickcritic.blogspot.com) Thanks!

 

[The Quick Flick Critic]

Yup. $30

I'd like to answer questions asked of me on my own please. I'm sure you understand. Thanks.

 

[indietalk]

Sorry but it's my site and I literally answered using text you posted. There seems to be a reason you are defensive, and I imagine it is because you charge for reviews so how can we expect to read unbiased reviews? I'm sure you understand.

 

[The Quick Flick Critic]

Wow. There's a problem with the new guy. Do you want me to get off the site? I'm fine with that. I also love indie film.

 

[indietalk]

You seem to have the issue not me. I helped a member by pointing out $30 is required when he asked about requirements. If $30 is not required you may correct me.

 

[The Quick Flick Critic]

I truly don't have an issue, man. I'm also not any good with back and forth. If you think it's crap that I'm compensated for my work, cool. I am not offended. I'll move on. Peace. Lots of it.

 

[indietalk]

You told me not to post on my own site. You can do what you like. I helped a member out and that's what we do here.

 

[The Quick Flick Critic]

What? Okay. You win. I lose.
