Full disclosure from the start: I am not a filmmaker in any sense. I am a web designer.
I have spent the last month and a half putting together a Flash website for an independent filmmaker. She was very receptive during the development process, but then dropped off the face of the earth after she told me that "a check was in the mail." Unless she sent this check via drunk carrier pigeon, she probably never sent the check (It was over a month ago, and we live about eight hours from each other). Since then, I have been completely cut off; phone calls go directly to voicemail, and emails go unreturned. She's constantly updating her status & tweeting, so I know she's OK. Bottom line is, she's probably flaked.
Anyway, I have already completed the website. So I'm just sitting on a completed project that I can't publish. But I really don't want to throw it away, so I'm trying to sell it if anyone out there is interested.
The website is made with a combination of Adobe Flash and HTML, and it includes a complimentary mobile site to go along with it. I'm willing to change to pretty much any aspect of its design, but I'd prefer not to change the layout.
I'm almost always available for updates (except in rare cases, I do not charge for them), and I intend to work alongside you as long as necessary to make you happy with the end result. I've made a website for another indie filmmaker in the past which you can see here: www.boondockfilms.com
If any of you are interested in an incredibly inexpensive website, please let me know. My personal website is www.undinestudios.com
Thank you for your time,
Ben
Here is a sample of the site I made for her: EDIT - because we're back on, I wanted to take the sample down. See below VVV
August 16th, 2011:
Believe it or not, the previous client called me back this morning after a month-long block and told me that she found out she didn't have the money to pay me, and simply didn't know how to tell me.
It's hard to feel sympathy after being ignored for so long, but I'm also just relieved that she called!
We're back on for launch, as it turns out.
To anyone that I spoke to via PM, rest assured that whatever projects we talked about still stand at the discussed price. Only difference now is that it'll be developed from the ground up with you in mind.
Thanks all.
