Bravo!!! And, I might add RESPECT ¥ourself... As well as others too...

this is amazing, i remember reading this same post six years ago

Always a much debated topic. I had this conversation again very recently. Living in NYC, female performers were always referred to as "actors", then I moved to Los Angeles where I was corrected by a producer who said, "Here you are an actress." I think it's up to your own personal preference. I don't correct people if they call me either. I'm a professional performer. "Actor", "Actress", both are correct.

Hey Drew, this is Shannon from the Stage 32 team. I just wanted to let you know I moved your post from Filmmaking to Promotion, as it fits much better there. Let me know if you have any questions, and all the best to you!

Timing and cinematography are totally flawless, with the heavy delivering beyond award-winning.

Thank you Nicholas. Your comments are much appreciated. I've shared them with the crew. Cheers, Drew

Wow! Wonderful!

Hi Marlene, great job with that piece. We're looking for voice actors for several audio productions. Intergalactic Space Rangers (action adventure), Doorways and Dimensions(Tales of the bizarre), WTF Radio(Where’s the funny) a series of short skits, basically a mish mash between Saturday Night Live and Monty python as well as a Doctor audio play. You can take a peek at www.intergalacticspacerangers.com

Wow, simply amazing!

Absolutely it's worth it to make a short film. But only after I've considered a few things: do you have the team ready and willing to go to make the best project possible? Have you thought through how you are going to market this piece (through film festivals, self-distribution, etc) to get the most exposure and bang for your buck (since you won't be getting an actual return on your investment, most likely)? This plan needs to be in place BEFORE you shoot so you can be thinking in that context.

What you want to make sure is that you learn a ton, and you come out the other side with the best calling card possible that represents your mad skills, etc. If those ducks are in a row - go for it!

I would say it is worth it to make a short film or pilot. You learn a lot about the process too. I wrote & produce my first SAG pilot in 2016. I learn a lot about doing SAG paperwork and $$$ which a good bit went for SAG fees, but next time I know.

Hi Mariannjely, YES IT I WORTH !!! I am a newbie and I just finished my 2nd short film and now I feel like a pro ..lol

I sign up with the 5 Shorts Project, it is based out of Philly where I live. They teach you everything about producing a short film. From writing a script , finding your film crew and locations, finding actors. This experience was great for me.

Here is the link to the website .. https://5shorts.org/

good luck !!!

Aww, this is great - Happy Easter to y'all, too! Thanks so much for keeping the vibe about the love!

Hoping you had a wonderful Easter! All the best!

Telepaths / Empaths ~ The gibberish thing is common to this type

.... Psychic fairs are advertised for those who want to attend who are not psychics themselves.... Not for the psychics themselves... Probably why I didn't get it, cause it made no sense. And you are obviously entitled to your opinion, I've debunked psychics myself, but have never been debunked... however, this has been one of my jobs since I was 18... I'm in my 30's now and that is not the reason I am this page. I'm not here to discuss psychics and mediums and clairvoyants... This about screenwriting, filming, publishing, acting, directing and etc... So I will no longer reply to comments, especially the derogatory ones, regarding psychics or psychic fairs as it may be. Thank you!

David: I never seen or probably never see a ghost, however I do believe in spiritual world. I was given proof when someone who I loved very much passed and, my own mother knew, because this spirit form, told her that, exactly word for word what I was saying in prayers to my loved one who was in a coma. I never believed until that day. Now, I will never seek the advice of a psychic pay or free.

LOL. If you're not here to discuss it, why mention it? Extensive experimentation to replicate psychic results in laboratory conditions have failed to find any precognitive phenomena in humans. Not a single psychic has been able to, under laboratory conditions, prove their abilities. Not one. If they could, they'd claim the $1m prize on offer. Yet no-one has. Not since the 60's when the prize was first offered. Odd that. (https://www.theguardian.com/science/2009/may/12/psychic-claims-james-ran...) And Jorge, Wikipedia provides reasoning for your experience: "A cold reading technique allows psychics to produce seemingly specific information about an individual from social cues and broad statements". Derren Brown does this incredibly well.

Have you placed a placeholder in your edit to know exactly what you need and how it would play out? You may find a workaround to the shot once you see it in play.

Thank you Karen "Kay" Ross. In fact we did put the storyboard images in the edit and even animated them so we have a pretty good idea of what the shots will look like. These are really two really short shots. One is just a simple pullback from a painting and the other one is a static or slight moving shot of the narrator sitting in a chair with the painting on the wall behind them. So very simple.

Julie Herlocker thank you very much. This is exactly what I'm battling with. On one side we don't have a deadline but it's a good time to shop around the idea and a proof of concept defiantly helps with that. But on the other hand I keep thinking that maybe I'm just clinging on to the original idea of the original actor we have for the part of the narrator. We've actually discussed it and it doesn't make much difference as far as the story goes.

All in all to someone watching they wouldn't notice any difference because honestly it doesn't make much of a difference.

Well the last two shots have been shot and I just imported everything and synced up the audio.

Now to see how everything goes together.

And it couldn't have happened on a better day, which is our national cultural day.

DIY. As above you will not enough to pay one, unless you have a connection to one, and they agree to a token payment. Good luck!

As a casting director, I'll maybe accept to work in change of film percentage points, if the script is interesting of course.

The simple answer is probably not (at least not a pro).

Jeff, disregard my private message. Sorry.

Daisy, I believe that’s how it would have to work. Luckily, I own my film rights despite having a book publisher. Phew!!

If you have an agent, he/she will do everything possible to retain most of ;your rights. Especially film rights. Without an agent, you must be very studious when examining a publisher's contract--it will likely be a standard boilerplate contract that retains most all rights and harbors clauses that are in their favor. Novelists and screenwriters can collaborate on projects where no money is exchanged until the project is sold and accumulates royalties. These types of agreements are a little hard to find, but they are out there. They are like co-authors, working on the same project but crafting in different mediums.
