RE: VILLAIN: How I (accidentally) DELETED The Work Of An Entire Film Production

in #introduceyourself8 years ago

This has never happened to me thankfully (either by myself or by the crew I've worked with) Had a couple of moments where we "thought" we'd lost something, but it had just been mislabeled. Can never be too careful when backing up.

Sort:  

I'll be posting an article tmrw entitled: VILLAIN: Staged Robbery At My Film Production Ends In Disaster W/ Real Gunman
Or maybe something shorter than that.
In any case it will be at @escapehatch , the home of Villainous reads.

Do you direct/produce?

I've been a writer for over a decade but moved into directing. I'll be directing my first feature this year (very soon actually) which is currently in pre-production. www.intoblack.com.au for the not so subtle plug.

I have produced before (including a micro budget feature). Have to say though it's not something I enjoy as much as the writing/directing side of it, but at the lower end of filmmaking everyone has to wear multiple hats so you do the best you can with what you have.

Just checked out intoblack, what is the length? Where are you planning submission? Are you guys building sets?

I've been trying to think of a way to crowd fund my new film using Steemit - I'll get back to you when I have something beyond begging

It will be approximately 100-105 minutes in total. I'll be submitting it to most tier 2 festivals as these days most of the majors festivals (Sundance, Cannes etc) are dominated by big budget/star driven "independent" films.

I feel the pain on crowdfunding. Very difficult, and begging certainly doesn't get you too far. Fortunately I got a decent hook up with a large commerical space that hasn't been leased for months so I'll be able to build all the sets I need inside of there.
