Aspiring filmmakers, take note

Who needs extras, a multimilliondollar budget, months of shooting, or Steven Spielberg?

Why, are you getting rid of some?

It certainly is incredible what can be done these days.

However, one could argue that it was thousands of extras, a multi-million dollar budget, months of shooting, and Steven Spielberg that made it possible to do it on the cheap now.

Pretty cool, but I don't know of any aspiring filmmakers on this board. In fact, I don't think anyone here has any interest in film at all.

Um, I am an aspiring filmmaker.

(Of course, all I have left are the aspirations. I gave up any film career soon after moving to L.A., when I quickly discovered what a dog-eat-dog world of barely surviving moment-to-moment it is. My recent contacts with several independent filmmakers who have more guts than me have led to some personal regrets.)

I'm pretty sure K was being sarcastic. (Since I can think of at least three of us.) (Cool short, btw.)

KB sarcastic? Not our sweet little Kevy.

Very cool, CP!

AWESOME!!!

Btw, CineGear Expo is coming up this June, and there is an independent film festival with prizes.

Anyone interested in making a film together? (I'm totally serious.)

Are there any nude love scenes involved ?
(because if it's intricate to the plot I'd be more than happy to do it)

Heck, even it was just a gratuitous sex scene, I would do it.
