The home page of this forum has a link called "New Posts"

Every time you log on you'll see a list of new things on the forum, since the last time you logged in. The writer of each thread and the last poster are always listed.

When I post anything about Cannes, I'll put "Cannes Film Festival in the thread title.

I'm also going to create specific posts on my own web magazine $1000 Film... (by the way, sorry the site looks a mess at the moment - we've got the builders in)

The best way to make sure you don't miss any posts on that is to set up an iGoogle account and then follow the site via the RSS feed. Which you do just by pasting the URL into the igoogle "add feed" popup on the "ADD" page.

Or, you could just check in on the site anytime after May 25th and do a site search for "Cannes"
 
Clive you didnt gave the answer of my post of this:


3) Know the names of the ten people who are most likely to buy your movie, before you start shooting

suppose if i am a young filmmaker making a movie for the first time how can i be sure that thoes ten [or even one] is realy interested in buying my movie when it is my first time??how can somebody trust me?????

can you tell me about it??


can you clear me this issue?
 
This is going to have to be a quick answer, because my time is very precious at the moment.

So, the way you identify the ten people who are most likely to buy your film is to find films that are similar in genre to the film you are making and then check to see who distributed them. Information like that you can get by reading the end credits of the movie and also by checking the DVD cover.

So a film like Monsoon Wedding was distributed by Film Four, who were based in the UK, but have since closed down. Other European distributors are listed here:


Cineeuropa


It also helps to read Variety and Screen International

Once you have a distribution company name, you go to their website and look at the contacts or staff list. Pick out the person whose job seems to match the acquisition of your movie.

That's all for now... got to pack
