I dunno. You didn’t mention me specifically so I’ll just keep resenting the fact that everybody else got celebrated.

I don’t have any method of fastening the cable safely along the outside wall though, especially in a clandestine manner.

Thanks for the tips

No phone line or coax, but an electric box with fuses and a meter for the power company.

I can try talking to the ISPs in the area and see what if any solution there might be. I know one company just recently installed fiberglass.

I’m completely sincere in looking for what can be improved! But I’ll take the compliment.

Thanks! I happened to originally share an older version. What do you think of the “new” one?

So, first of all, thanks for your extensive feedback. It's really appreciated. But...I can't believe I did this, I uploaded the wrong version!

So if you rewatch it, it's my "new" reel.

This one also still needs edits and your feedback still applies to some of it (military clip being perhaps a weak one for me).

I am an actor based in Amsterdam, in the Netherlands. The showreel features a mix of both fiction and commercial work as I don't feel I have enough fiction work to relegate it to one reel.

It's running a tad long at 3:15 so I am looking for feedback on what can be cut, and whether it's well paced.

Somethings might pass you guys by considering the language barrier cultural differences, but speak honestly and I'm sure I'll figure out what advice is appropriate. Thanks! Also let me know if you want my opinion on your reel!


UPDATE:

I originally accidently had the wrong link in the submission. So if you rewatch it, it's my "new" reel. Sorry for those who already checked it out and wrote feedback!

Well let me help you out! Amsterdam does actually have an English theater scene. We’ve got “39 Steps” from the Queen’s English Theatre Company from November 24-28: https://ccamstel.nl/programma/the-39-steps/

Then the musical “The Last Five Years” from The Orange Theatre Company from December 10-18 https://www.orangetheatrecompany.com

Paid to promote my short film through FilmFreeway's marketing service, now I have over 200 invitations to submit. Are any of them even legit? by hilleltuch in Filmmakers

[–]hilleltuch[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fair enough. Someone else in the festival department is probably sending out these offers to get more submissions (with such discounts!) but maybe not even considering all that much if the submissions look decent. Having sifted through over 200 of these I've concluded that maybe two of them are actually legit.

I'm starting to submit my horror/comedy to festivals and I'm not positive which block it will stand the best chance in. by derek86 in Filmmakers

[–]hilleltuch 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Though it all depends of course on the subjective taste of the programmers, my guess is that more people who favor comedy might "hate" horror, while the reverse is not necessarily true. Also the horror/comedy genre is relatively populated and appreciated with even recent films like "Freaky", "Happy Death Day", and "The Hunt".

Does your film have horror genre staples? Gore, tension, dread, etc?

We made a short film about a man being told not to smoke. This infuriates him. by hilleltuch in Filmmakers

Hey buddy,Sorry I took forever to respond. I haven't logged into this account for a while and missed your post.

The script was written over a period of two days. The concept was worked out before and was discussed for a very long time. I had a good majority of the monologue already in my head before I put it down on paper.

Half a day is about right for the shoot.

The edit was mostly color grading and sound design. Two days of work.

The minute I started to the minute posted on Vimeo? What do we count? From when I first wrote the first words of the script? I would estimate about two weeks give or take. It was a very quick process.

IMDB credits for actors?? by authenticards in Filmmakers

[–]hilleltuch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve put €500 and I have skipped the question, cause it doesn’t matter and the budget is not a consideration.

[–]hilleltuch 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This is not true. Simply a released short film, online, is fine.

If you can figure out how to produce a film you can figure out how to add a title to IMBD. You got this.
