Is there a chance or possibility that Fandom could be used by film companies for Market Research and finding out what fans want and that fanfiction sites and fan art sites could be good ways to find new talent in writing?
A free and open forum. The place to discuss anything on your mind film, television and theater related…or not.

Sometimes, a script might require a few close ups when drawing storyboards. In other cases, switching up the angles from storyboard to storyboard, makes the work dynamic. Something I learned from the pros/experts in the comic book and film industries. To this day, I still think about it when I am re...
