An interesting illustrated article about how Anime is successfully moving into the Arab world with projects reflecting folklore and cultural influences.
Have any of you seen these projects yet? Thoughts on other cross-cultural influences in media and art?
Oh, good, Maurice. I hope you really enjoy it. That same filmmaker has some other really good ones, too.
Make sure that you add Attack on Titan to your list, Maurice Vaughan. It's my favorite anime series and last I knew, it was all on Hulu: https://www.hulu.com/series/9c91ffa3-dc20-48bf-8bc5-692e37c76d8...

How long should it take to write a screenplay?
My personal rule of thumb is 1 page /day - a 120 page screenplay = 4 months
... Pick 2 - you want it GOOD or CHEAP or FAST ...? It can't be all three

Nicholas In Seattle. I am saying what “is” based on my own experience not what “one might think is." I don’t know what the most important part of a screenplay is that's made it to the desk of a produc...

Nicholas In Seattle. I agree and you have a good day as well.
It is snowing here so I'll trade you.
I believe screenwriters shouldn't just write screenplays, but other forms as well. I am writing a couple novels, have written a couple short screenplays, a few poems and as of today, finally, a short story. It's not that I'm not keen on short stories, but I've never been able to come up with anythin...

Oh, I so it exceeds CreateSpace's 480 page limit. The haven't specifically suppressed your book. Got it. I'm cleaning up my first original screenplay. MUCH easier to do than adapting.
It must have come on around 700 pages, right? Amazon's POD machine maxes out at 480 pages (I think it's a financial limit, but it might be physical). I max out (reading) at about 400 pages.
Before they suppressed the novel I managed to buy twenty copies from Creataspace. 527 pages.. Shroud over Paradise 493 pages the Golden Malaita Eagle 420 pages hard copy. The latter could be a mini blockbuster.
Watching a Korean vampire series set in then Joseon dynasty, one of the bad guys put his foot up on the table. You can clearly see his black Timberland boots. In another scene the protagonist slides his bad ass swordsman spin and slide and you can tell he bought expensive dress boots at the Designer...

Which series is this? I would leave it in for some online buzz lol.
Is it The Scholar Who Walks The Night?
On another note, K-dramas are turned out a dime a dozen and are so popular that I would imagine no one cares about discrepancies, short of having jet aircraft or cell phones 200+ years ago lol
Yep, it was The Scholar Who Walks The Night. K-dramas are not quite at the Run Run Shaw production assembly lines. Shaw was pumping out a movie a day.
But I can hear a producer crying " You wanna re-shoot for a shoe?"
Hi everyone!
I am getting ready to start my next pilot script, and I've narrowed it down to these 7 ideas.
Do any of them make you want to read?
1. A rock star joins a secret government agency that fights demonic possession.
2. A poor student deals drugs to both sides in a local Antifa/Nazi war for tui...
