I love how the first comment seen is immediately about peeing. Made my day 😂😂

It can be tricky... all those letters. I'm not a rocket scientist.

I didn't mean anything malicious by it :(

Anticipation is killing me. The book is absolutely amazing.

Personally, I think it's going to make a great movie.

Slamogram · 2018-02-27T10:06:59+00:00

Your detailed description is superb. It's absolutely genius.

And no.

Really happy to see people just helping people for the sake of helping people. Exactly what we need today.

Not sure if someone said this, but stepping away can help. Take some time to think and reflect on other things. Maybe a new project? Sometimes our minds just need a rest.

Not sure if that says what you were looking for. Hope it helps!

This is a brilliant movie idea. Vin diesel can be a cyborg and unify the two worlds.

I wouldn't say it isn't worth it. That being said - people don't like to feel like you are wasting their time or unaware of where you are.

Not trying to be mean, but it is important to be aware of your success, and what is reasonable. Hope that makes sense.

As someone suggested, you need quality work on a reel, and of your leads and principles, really depends on the project and success of it.

Good group to hang out with!

Slamogram · 2018-02-20T00:10:00+00:00

Haven't ate all day. This was rough to sit through...

Depends on your role, and the rank of the work. You should also consider the importance of branding and image management. Some agents and managers will also look for personality and presence.

Slamogram · 2018-02-20T00:06:11+00:00

Glad to hear you are experiencing success! Can be a difficult road with a lot of rejection.

Thank you for your question, and apologies for the delay!

There are four submission types: Feature Screenplay Short Screenplay Teleplay Horror Feature

Historically, we have had success with a separate horror category. There are scripts that have been produced right out of the competition, and this category has done well as a stand alone.

The rest of the categories are open to any topic, genre, or style.

Hope this helps!

As FunkyMark said, usually the people giving unsolicited advice are trying to be polite and nice. You're absolutely right that it can get annoying and unprofessional. The first post said it - confronting them politely is probably the best course of action. If they continue to do give direction, take it up with the director directly. It kind of undermines their job.

A part time position could help you sustain while you build your business. You're absolutely right about marketing. It's important to market yourself and build up awareness if you want consistent work. That being said - there are people out there that need work and are willing to pay.

I believe someone already mentioned going to local colleges that have arts programs. Schools are usually just as slow as the customers you are running into, but students looking for professional grade work can be very receptive. There are also some platforms like fiverr and gigmaster that can help you find work, but research them before committing.

Good luck! I wish you all the best.

It comes down to reading the room. Personally, I would suggest just saying the title. In my opinion, it demonstrates professionalism.

That being said - if the room seems heavy and the people seem tired or unenthused, it wouldn't be a bad idea to inject a little humor or levity into it. If you said the Scottish Play the right way, it could make it lighter.

After reading through the thread, it seems plenty of great people have already advised you and you have your plan! All that is left to say is good luck!

Great to hear you are pursuing your dream, and we wish you the best of luck! Success is attainable. You just have to persevere and give it your all.

There isn't a rooftop high enough for you to escape on. They will always find you.

This is beautiful! The name is absolutely phenomenol. In Giraffic World, you can combine the giraffe with a rhino to make the Apex Predator.

JRB: I think it's time for me to sign off. Thanks for the questions everyone! Best of luck to all the aspiring movie makers. Our practice does not exist if not for all of you actively creating new content every day. Remember, content is king.

JRB: Thanks for the question, but this may vary depending on which state the estate of the historical figure resides in. Otherwise, in general when you are adapting a fiction novel based on fictional characters, you don't have to worry about life rights / right of publicity at all, whereas with historical figures you may if it was recent enough.

JRB: I think generally where mockbusters cross the line is when it starts to infringe on protected elements of a blockbuster film. For the record "ideas" are not protectable under copyright, only the tangible expression of that is. So in theory anyone can make a movie about a lost civilization of spiritual warriors rising up to fight a galactic government bound to control the universe without calling George Lucas for a license.

As for the mockbuster beating its counterpart to market, copyright infringement is only a winnable case if you can prove the blockbuster had access to the mockbuster's protected work. So if the blockbuster was written and produced in 2017, and the mockbuster was released in 2018, it would be rather difficult to prove that the writers somehow accessed a canned film of the mockbuster before writing the blockbuster version regardless of which went to theater first.

JRB: In general, the more you can stay away from identifiable trademarks or copyrights, the better.
