    Film with similar longline/concept - avoiding claims

The plot involves a couple on a romantic anniversary break in Scotland who wake up to find that they are the last two people alive on the planet. As dark forces close in they must...

    Favorite Horror Films

    Bit late but... Horror is certainly my forte. I've seen A LOT. My picks are based on just balls out impact and the impression it had when I first saw it. Sure people often now downplay a lot of these but at the time of release a lot of these were trend setters. My top 10.... 1. Cube 2. Tales...

    High quality shorts vs. low quality feature?

    Okay, I'll admit it. I'm a perfectionist. I'm the type that wouldn't dream of putting his/her name to something publicly until I was fairly certain it was going to have an audience. I've made a few micro budget shorts between collaborators/hobbyists/film school students and in my opinion my...

    Are YouTube/Vimeo shorts the way forward?

    The trend at the moment for indie film makers seems to be the YouTube/Vimeo shortcut. The directors of District , Mama and the Evil Dead remake caught Hollywood's attention through their superb short films being noticed. None had any serious film making CV. These shorts were uploaded to...

    Someone already made it

    Wow. Finally! I have for (literally) years tried to explain that infinite concept to a lot of my friends and family, all of whom don't "get it". The idea that there is infinite space, therefore there are infinite possibilities and alternatives. Somewhere, no matter how remote in the universe...

    Cleaning up sound

    You've aimed that at the wrong person! I'm simply singing your praises - I've read a few of your replies to other topics and you certainly know your stuff. I'm not the OP! Genuinely wasn't sarcasm either, myself and many others appreciate all of the valuable information re audio you provide.

    Ultra modern, adult and corporate version....... Vanessa Redman believes she's landed the dream job as a personal assistant at Wolfe & Partners, a high flying corporate law firm. Not only is she earning considerably more than her last job, she's been given her own small office next to the...

    Avoiding copyright

    It wholeheartedly does. Thank you Sweetie. I've just watched the film that had the same niche idea and I'm happy to say it's quite far from what my vision is, which I am pleased about. Something I probably should have done a while ago.

    Avoiding copyright

    My point isn't whether my story is going to be better,equal or worse. What I want to know is what are the thresholds for copyright when a story is so unique and niche? As has been said many times, every possible story has been done even if only once before. For example, I could write a film...
