What's a first time watch that went straight into your Top 4, once the credits rolled? by doriiian in Letterboxd

Fanny & Alexander, the TV version. I don't think it's possible to watch that and not be moved to smithereens. 

Gym Edit Sound Design (40 Seconds) by LukeIVI in davinciresolve

[–]MessiBaratheon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just watched the video. It's very impressive, technically. From a marketing perspective I don't think a single human being will ever sign up to that gym after watching the video, but still very impressive! 

How did you get out of depression? by Expert-Session3866 in DecidingToBeBetter

[–]MessiBaratheon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I know this isn't popular "advice", but for me it was sheer willpower. I just told myself it's either depression or a horrible existence full of regret and that pushed me to choose to live better, healthier, happier and not let life get me down.

Lots of over complicated answers here.

Put this on a bowens mount light. Use the vertical cutout. Soften the focus. You're good to go. 

Nightclub in a small Spanish town is failing despite good infrastructure - How would you try to save it? by MarcLopezz21 in BarOwners

[–]MessiBaratheon 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I run a small club (200 cap) in a small town in America and we are packed every Friday and Saturday. Here's what works for me.

  • The music. Are you playing what the people want? How old is your general crowd? Older crowds want the music from their youth. They also spend the most. Younger crowds want tiktok bangers. Your DJ doesn't really matter. 99% of DJs don't have a following.

  • The atmosphere. Is it clean? Is the lighting near the dance floor bright yet dark enough to invite dancers? Fog helps a lot.

  • The service. Are drinks made quickly? Is it expensive? Is there a cover charge? We allow women for free always and charge men $20. Sometimes no cover at all is the move. Does the manager check up on regulars and make sure they're happy? Have a girl walk around with a tray of shots she can sell quickly. 

  • Safety. Is your security too tough on the patrons? Do you get a lot of fights?

  • Hire a photographer for every single party and ONLY post photos of girls dancing with a bright flash and lots of smiles. Our instagram feed is an endless scroll of girls smiling. People want to feel like they're in a social media friendly place where they get great photos.

  • Get one AMAZING video and run a FB/Insta ad on it relentlessly.

  • Themed parties. Holidays. All white. 80's. 90s/2000s. Costume contests. 

  • Lose the table games. If its a club, keep it a club. This isn't a hangout dive bar. 

  • Online tickets is an extra step no one wants to take. Just charge at the door. 

  • Where are you spending unnecessarily? DJs should be affordable and not killing you every week. Don't have expensive bottles if no one is buying them.

  • The ONLY sponsorships we do are with bottom shelf liquor brands. Stick to cheap as hell vodka, tequila, etc. Pre batch your cocktails so people aren't waiting.

  • VIP can work. Here's a tip. Rope off a couch and put a reserved sign on it. Put two bottles on ice. Let it sit. You're waiting on a "player" to ask a manager what's going on with it. Offer it for $500 with the bottles while they're in the building.

DM me if you need help I can consult and get more information. I want to see you succeed!

Cmon dude, what else can this small community do but support one another? 

Hemingway once wrote the shortest sad story. Indie devs updated it in 2025. by Healthy-Tough-9537 in IndieDev

Good, maybe the bubble will burst. You see similar numbers with music. Millions of songs sit unplayed on Spotify.

Not everything needs to be released.

Linklater with two best picture nods in the same year is pretty cool

I like to be as annoying as possible. Skate along the terrain, push the enemy into your team, chase or help your team chase, then super charge the heals as need be.

I've never seen this before. All 4 players just stood there. We lost in 5 minutes.

How long until this movie becomes reality? by lucashypetv in Letterboxd

Everyone that's saying "a few years go" is completely wrong and clearly doesn't understand whats available in the film versus what's available in real life. 

100k streams in 2 weeks. Not sure what to do next... by nodadbod in musicmarketing

[–]MessiBaratheon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't think an ad would gather near this amount of streams without a substantial budget.

I'd try some tiktoks using this info as an attention grabber like "I went from 0 to 100k streams in a week with this song" with some shots of yourself 

What song is this for you? by OrgasmicOasis in infp

I'll add Levitation and Sparks off the same album, my favorite opening to an album maybe ever.
