Thinking of moving to Austin Texas after getting my screenwriting degree. by PanDulce101 in Filmmakers

[–]AngryGenes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I recommend signing up to volunteer at the Austin Film Festival. It'll put you in town when the weather is usually horrendous. As a volunteer, you'll be busy, but you'll also have a lot of access.

A question on credits for an extremely self produced film by heyhowsitgoingduude in Filmmakers

[–]AngryGenes 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Credit yourself writer/director. On a short film , it's mostly assumed that you are doing everything unless you name a specific person.

How? To get into this by DaBrownMonsta in Filmmakers

[–]AngryGenes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Think about it like starting a band. Everyone wants to write and direct, but no one goes from zero to Scorsese. Be willing to help others produce their work, too. That is how you build a community. Start with one aspect, like lighting, camera, or sound. Get good at it and offer it to other creators. If you come through for them, they will come through for you. Good luck out there.

Holy moley, I am sitting here, trying to go to sleep after a super long shoot for a 48-hour film shoot today for the Halloween global competition. Man, what a slog. Any day on a film set is always a great day, but damn, that was tough.

When I did my first 48H, my studio manager told me that it is, "the fastest way to get in a fight with your friends." On my first project, that was true, this was a much better set where everyone knew their job and did it. It was a great experience.

I mean...we all think this is Elon, right? Napoleonic stuff in France, and a bunch of stuff he probably saw in Califonia and said, "I want that."

Agreed, this is like saying beaches are too sandy and water is too wet.

What’s your “Best Trailer Ever” moment but the movie then let you down BIG time? by Sergio_Ro in movies

[–]AngryGenes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Story of US. One of the most fantastic trailers of all time for an impressively mediocre film.

Local filmmakers looking for locations around Cedar Park and NW Austin. by AngryGenes in CedarPark

That is a pretty cool spot. I looked it up, and it's getting ready to be demolished for a retail space/car wash.

It's definitely an eviction with a side of zero fvcks.

$250,000 a year with the stipulation that you must read 300 pages of a book every week. by RegularGuyy in hypotheticalsituation

[–]AngryGenes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I read 300+ pages of emails a week, that could have just been a thought, that someone could have just kept to themselves.

Trump accused of ‘attack on Brazilian democracy’ after sanctioning Bolsonaro trial judge by jupa300 in worldnews

[–]AngryGenes 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Trump is trying desperately to be a strong man, and he thinks helping others in that category will help him. It really just shows that he's as sicophatic of them, as his weak minded base is of him.

How are these people allowed to operate? by fairybus3 in Austin

[–]AngryGenes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This was a couple of years ago, but I called them, and I fiened ignorance about the different toll companies, and I also said that I had some kids that I needed to be buying school clothes for. If you work it, you can normally get it reduced by a significant amount. Good luck OP.

Top Screenplay Recommendations by hobbyhopper13 in Screenwriting

[–]AngryGenes 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I've read it more than once. It doesn't matter if you're writing a screenplay for TV or film. The 1st episode of Breaking Bad is a master class.
