No. I mean it in a helpful way.
I enjoy seeing people succeed. I really do.
I cannot see you succeeding on the path you are taking, though. You are trying to pull together support for some revolutionary new system... it is you who should be bending over backwards to make sure people understand what your goal/vision is.
Clearly there was interest in your plan... the thread would not have gone on this long if noone cared. I do not understand your self-destructive method of tackling the (difficult) task of networking and building some support.
funches said:ok ZenSteve since I cannot get the discussion going one way,
then I shall (create another venue) to get this discussion going
Surely ZenSteve you must have produced an Independent movie? and I going to assume this Independent movie is awesome, nothing like it ever, a real need to see movie,.. so what's the name of your movie and if your movie was not promoted thru the hollywood system, what resources do you plan on using to get it to the the silver screen?
Why try poisoning the well, good funches?
Look at my profile. It clearly states what kinds of film I make.
I am not claiming to be you, nor claiming ambitions to be better than you... whatever that may entail. I'm not the one trying to drum up support for a new indie-film industry based on a film-idea I have.
The burden is upon you to:
- Be clear
- Be concise
- Be willing to explain, when needed
- Work at establishing good relationships
If you just don't have "people skills" (many people do not)... find/hire someone to represent you that does.
You are killing your project with every poor post you make. It does not have to be that way, funches.
