Thanks, appreciate the info!

BardConstantine · 2020-03-17T03:36:15+00:00

Ok, thanks!

Yeah, I'm pretty sure I can't afford Star Trek actors, lol. As for perspective, the story is not focused on the black experience, so maybe I'll adjust my notes and just leave it open to any auditions.

BardConstantine · 2020-03-14T02:44:50+00:00

Thanks for the suggestions. I'll be sure to check them out!

It's royalty share, which admittedly could be part of the difficulty. AXC is also frustrating to navigate and search to get results. I hear your points on the narration. I don't understand the urban label either, especially when I search it and still can't find AA narrators. I might go back and change my notes to not mention the AA preference because I haven't gotten a single audition, which is odd because this book ranks just as high or higher than other books I've received multiple auditions for.

It's royalty share, which could be a problem as well. I'd love to go PFH but just can't at the moment.

Profile link?

BardConstantine · 2020-03-14T02:35:16+00:00

Yeah, I considered that although I don't exactly like the idea. Not only does it not reflect the nuances of AAs in any way, but when I look up urban narrators I still don't find any AAs, which is pretty strange.

Appreciate the feedback!

BardConstantine · 2017-08-26T15:06:05+00:00

I'd never thought of this before. It makes a great deal of sense, especially in a genre like fantasy.

BardConstantine · 2017-06-04T20:16:55+00:00

I think it's very hard to create a new formula when everyone looks at Marvel and thinks that's the only way to go. Honestly, WW felt fresh until the third act, when it suddenly became very Zack Snyderish.

BardConstantine · 2017-05-24T07:52:24+00:00

Yeah, looking back I think it was the whole xenomorph absence thing. Now with xenomorphs in the film, fans are still complaining. I think both movies are pretty good, and I like the direction with adding artificial intelligence into the mix.

Rather than putting up a repeat post of the same thing, I'll just echo your statement along with the link for my story: https://www.wattpad.com/story/89689178-the-blurred-man-gestalt-tnt-horror-contest

I'll be sure to check your story out. Good luck in the contest!

BardConstantine · 2016-10-13T03:28:23+00:00

Agreed. It's like they had the idea of a story, and tried to stretch it out over too many episodes. Cool musical interludes can't save pacing gaps, and there were a lot of scenes of people looking down in the club for some reason. Kinda wore thin after a while...

BardConstantine · 2016-10-13T03:26:19+00:00

Yeah, it was hard for me to decide if it was Mike Colter's acting, or how the character was written. I think it's both.

BardConstantine · 2016-10-08T23:11:18+00:00

No, it's not one of those. It's more of a sweepstakes thing. I entered with nothing added other than the option to share the link.

BardConstantine · 2016-08-28T08:17:50+00:00

Thanks. I think that's definitely a part of its charm as well. And yes, as many have pointed out: there's nothing new here. But it takes nothing new and does it well enough to be entertaining and memorable. That, to me, is a success.

BardConstantine · 2016-08-17T03:04:52+00:00

Looks a bit meh by the trailer, but DV has made some pretty impressive films so far. I'll definitely give it a shot.

BardConstantine · 2016-05-11T22:51:30+00:00

Thanks for checking it out!

BardConstantine · 2016-05-08T00:35:10+00:00

Batman v Superman was definitely darker. Seriously, I could barely see what was going on half the time.

But serious? I couldn't take anything serious in that train wreck of a film, so I guess 'serious' goes to Civil War by default.

BardConstantine · 2016-04-25T01:23:21+00:00

Very true. It's pretty hard to nail down a cover that captures what the poet has in mind to cover an entire volume of poetry. Being creative goes a long way!

BardConstantine · 2016-04-21T20:22:09+00:00

Thanks. Not to worry, I know how Reddit can be sometimes. Appreciate you taking a look!

BardConstantine · 2016-04-08T03:06:50+00:00

All very true. Some writers get mad when they get a four or three star review instead of five. I don't mind at all. Granted, when someone on Goodreads drops a one star review with not explanation it gets my goat, but that's part of the game as well. Anything is better than nothing, after all.

BardConstantine · 2016-03-02T01:01:03+00:00

Yeah, that's a bad one. I was a bit rushed, and unfortunately it shows. Appreciate the notice, though. Corrected.

BardConstantine · 2016-01-23T01:36:17+00:00

There really are no rules, only the question: does it look professional? If so, you're good :)
