    Help Me Help You! Looking for film(s) to distribute! Success Guaranteed.

    OP is fishing for trailers. That's what distributors do. OP wants a private conversation with the filmmaker. I don't see anything wrong with that.

    Cheapest film to use

    You have to actually shoot some film to see what it will do for you. What I mean is, what film will bring out of you as a creative artist. Film is a different canvas and requires different disciplines than video. Shooting film is a process, a journey, not a destination.

    The Difficulties of Low or No Budget Short Films

    A piece of advise I got quite awhile back was to first write the movie without dialogue then add the dialogue in after all the visual sequencing is worked out. I find it helps me understand what it's going to take to make the flick interesting. Making shorts visually interesting is not easy and...

    Should I buy this 16mm projector/lot?

    You never know what you can get in an odd lot sale. Sometimes it's good and sometimes it's a box of junk. Recently I bought an odd lot from ebay. I mainly bought it for the Moviola film cranks that were the main item in the lot. There was also a Bell & Howell projector, six split reels and a few...

    ORWO black and white film

    The tests on Vimeo were done by Cinelab not me. I would ask them about their test directly. Some of there test looks over exposed, a good test to see what the film can do. I'm hoping to shoot a short with it in the near future if my money situation improves.

    I'm all alone. Blah!

    I mainly get stuck when I lose track of my limitations. i.e. try to write a film that needs a budget but I don't have money for gas in my car, or wanting a camera that I can't afford, or I have no one to help me and so on and so on. When my thinking gets this bad I have to get back to basics. I...

    Nikon D7000 Quality

    I have a D7000. I've been a Nikon person for a long time and as such have a LOT of Nikon lenses. So my choice was based on the glass I own. Yes it shoots 1080p and a number of other formats. The highest bit rate I've seen was 28mbits, depends on the shot. I find the ultra sharp digital lenses...

    Best way to sell a script?

    The 25,000.00 I mentioned was from regional broadcast rights over seas not DVD sales. The distributor felt there would very little in DVD sales. I should have clarified that in my previous post. I agree with Directorik, producers are looking for good scripts. That's their business. The trick as...

    Best way to sell a script?

    I like to look at it this way, selling a script is a wholesale transaction. Someone has to turn it into a movie to get retail sales. So I need to have a script that can make money for someone else. Having a track record of making someone else money is a good thing to have when selling anything...

    ORWO black and white film

    I shot some Orwo UN54 100ASA film and had it processed(reversal) at Cinelab. I didn't have it transferred but I must say it looks really nice. UN54 can be processed as negative or reversal. Here are some link to tests that Cinelab did with this film stock. Negative test...
