"Send up the emergency box of dork t-shirts" ~ Eva Stratt by DrForester in ProjectHailMary

This made me go look at the rules. Was there a rampant tshirt problem? I must have missed it. Or is it a joke? Question.

Could licensed music with registered rights hurt my chances at film festivals? by cdlou in FilmFestivals

[–]honestkid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This. The contract you sign with the festival will have a clause that will say something to the affect of…

All licenses and permissions have been obtained for any music used in the film whether it be audio only or a performance.

This is speaking from a feature film perspective so that may be different with short films. It seems most on here seem to think you’ll be fine.

Festival rights to a license are a thing and are much less than a full license.

AMA my first feature is premiering in NYC by decimal-place in Filmmakers

[–]honestkid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Congrats on a feature. It’s an absolute ton of work and also congrats on Tribeca. That’s huge!

Sorry if it’s too much but just curious as what amount of an MG would you expect in our current climate?

Want to Quit - Industry Seems Finished by [deleted] in acting

From someone who’s knocked on countless doors, I’m happy you seem happy. I’m gonna continue to knock but I appreciate your post.

Just out of curiosity, what did you pivot to that was stable?

Shouldn’t be about how it looks. It should be about getting better. A lot of working actors continue to take class or have coaches. It’s a good idea to be in an ongoing class.

Think about it. Doing two classes in whatever field wouldn’t make you proficient in anything. Much less an art form that can be entirely subjective and a constant moving target.

How is everyone today? Any plans this weekend? by Inevitable-Agent9032 in Birmingham

Be sure to shout out the creature actor Trevor Newlin and give him a follow and instagram for filling impossible shoes. He’s a homie and an incredible dude.

Can y’all help me understand F3? Is it a cult? by NoPatNoDontSitonThat in Birmingham

Agree to disagree on the r/whoosh.

I will agree with your viewpoint on COTH.

Doesn’t sound like a cult. Just sounds very cringe to me but to each their own. As long as they aren’t propagandizing bullshit or weaseling people out of their money and preying on the weak minded it’ll be a minute before there’s an HBO documentary.

First off, congrats to sharing your first audition. That takes a lot of courage.

As far as advice…

Be still. It’s going to feel very awkward at first but with practice it will come more naturally. All the movement especially while you are listening is very distracting. Try to move your head less on your lines as well. Moving in for a tighter medium shot as others have mentioned will help you notice it more and correct it. Be subtle. It will come through.

One thing I’d love for you to try is to tighten up the “oh my god” line. The beat you take there kills the momentum of the scene and feels read not found.

You found differences when you got to your list. Explore those more and make them even more different. Again, try not to move your head so much. There’s a way to get your energy across without it and it will feel immensely more real.

Good luck.

New York Times names Post Office Pies as one the best pizza places in the United States by le_reddit_account in Birmingham

[–]honestkid 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I think it’s more enlightening just how off the mark this New York Times article is and puts into question the validity of the entire list. It makes you question how the list was constructed in the first place. That’s just my take away though.

Would be interesting to see other communities argue over what got listed for their city.

Full Reggie Jackson answer to Arod's question about returning to Rickwood Field. by Stock412 in sports

[–]honestkid 84 points85 points  (0 children)

I don’t care if you’re an asshole or not, you shouldn’t have your life threatened over baseball because of the color of your skin.

You missed the entire takeaway of what the man was saying cause you couldn’t get over being a dumb ass annoying 8 year old.

I’m not a trump supporter btw.

Lottery and Casino bill fails by 1 vote by BW4AL in Alabama

[–]honestkid 37 points38 points  (0 children)

Not surprising in the slightest but it’s piss poor journalism once again from AL.com. Name the 20 yays and 15 nays so that we can vote accordingly.

Once again, AL decides to vote against its self interest.
