Natalie Elizabeth Beech: Filmmaker, producer and screenwriter in Lisbon, Portugal.

Hi everyone! My name is Athina Kefalopoulou and I am an Actress, Producer and Script Supervisor based in Athens, Greece. I am a 3rd Culture Kid, raised in Russia, Norway, and gone to university in Edinburgh, Scotland. Last year, after 10+ years of acting in the student sphere and 4+ years working professionally as a Cultural Producer I decided to focus my work on Film and Theatre, and was lucky to be given the chance to script supervise a major feature film in Greece. This January I made my first ever showreel and have happily been cast in 4 productions since! I would appreciate any and all feedback on my showreel and casting profile, as well as any further reading or pointers on Script Supervision.

Additionally, if any of you are looking to film work in Greece and need a bi-lingual team member, I am all ears!

I am wondering what I have to do next with my screenplay. I have copyrighted it and waiting to hear back. I have done some research on doing this or that such as start a website, find an agent. I would like to hear some real practical advice on what my next steps should be? Like I said, I have an idea but just want to hear from someone who has experience. Thanks

Dear Natalie:

I have a unique animation project. It's about immigration and totalitarian regimes scapegoating them but also about the people of this universe developing a sense of ownership over their own government after a bloody civil war. It can relate to all the hopes and disappointments of the average American nowadays. This is the kind of project for somebody willing to take risks with something new and who wants to make a difference. It's very intense drama and the stories are solid (thanks to my background in politics and history) and original as I can prove because the four seasons are all already written. The creative part is covered. My problem is that I need a producer and that the optimum time to produce it is right now, so it can be pitched to network (unless there is a better alternative) by early 2020 at the most.

So, with respect to production I am going nowhere. I need a producer with whom to team up. You yourself can participate if you want. Could you help with that?

I can provide you with the stories covering the 4 seasons (1,700 pages), first draft of screenplay for the pilot (the immigration reform story), first pages of the storyboard and graphics. I could even get the perfect music done with the help of somebody who can play a MIDI keyboard better than me. My contact info is blackmiti@yahoo.com, 562-229-6784. Feel free to pass it to whoever you consider appropriate.

Thank you for connecting!!

So I am wondering, since I want a certain genuineness in my screenplay there is quite a lot of profanity in it. FD counts 64 curse words, the f-word alone appears 33 times in different forms. I feel this is required for authenticity. But I don't want to spoil my chances. Should I take the cursing out? Or use the alternative dialogue function to have two version, one with and one without? Or can I leave it as is?

Thanks in advance!

Hello Natalie, thanks for connecting :)

Hi Natalie you may wish to visit my website www.chillilkippen.com

Thanks for the invite to connect! Have a great day!

I'm just entering the post-Cannes slump (managed to keep it off for a few days this time!) so I figured I'd type up some of my take-aways from this year's festival. Apart from unreliable accommodation, train strikes and a bomb scare at Nice Airport, it went pretty well. The following points may be of interest:

1) WndrCo is forking out a whopping $125k per minute for short form content with premium talent attached (and I would assume demonstrable high production values).

2) Hulu is set to take on Netflix by launching in overseas territories as a direct competitor by the end of this year.

3) AFM is launching a VoD service for exhibitors targeted towards buyers to save time and money at the market by running alongside it's screenings. At the moment the guide price will be circa $400 per film, which is a bug saving compared to traditional screenings.

4) The first few days of the Marche du Film are for buying and selling through existing contacts. The second week is now the best week for capitalising on fresh contacts.

5) The Cannes Short Film Corner now only operates during the second week of the Festival (the same space being occupied by the VR Corner during the first week), and short film festival passes are only valid then.

6) Pre-sale driven international films are in decline (but I think we'd all noticed that anyway).

7) 4K filming is now the bar, especially if you want to attract a distributor like Netflix.

8) Blockchain technology is here to stay, however government regulation is a good five years away.

9) The Short Film Corner is a great place to engage with new, up and coming talent.

10) Le Petit Majestic wasn't as busy as in previous years, so there were less people to network with of an evening.

11) Less advertising dollars were spent on the promotional billboards along La Croisette.

12) Solo: A Star Wars Story was a better film than I thought!

How did it go for everyone else who went? What were the main trends that people noticed emerging from the market? And who managed to come away without blisters? :)

Personally I feel like I could do with a holiday after that week...but there's work to be done between now and AFM... :-o

Thanks for the connection Natalie!!

Hi Natalie! Thanks for the touch. My interest is in building out steem.film - a film community social media platform on the blockchain where you can blog, post, vote, earn and fund films. It’s quite exciting and will be the subject of my comments and posts. Hope you find it interesting.

Awesome! Love your bio, we have to do something together, pleasure meeting you.

Hey Natalie, thanks for the connection.

Great to meet you, Natalie! :-)
