Hi guys,

Not sure if it's ok that I opened a new thread.. not sure if I should write it here or in another forum - so please be patient with me :-D

I've developed an idea for a screenplay - for a feature film. I'm starting to write soon but I'm looking for nice people that I can trust to stay in touch with, brainstorm, share ideas etc. If there's anyone here in the same situation as me, then we could help each other out.

I also have a few ideas for pitching once I'm done with writing which I'd be happy to share and would love some help with.

So if anyone wants, PM me or something :)

Would you be opposed if we went to an aspiring filmmaker room? ;)

I'm usually available for feedback and suggestions and almost ready to pick up new projects. Had a very busy period with reviewing and commenting on scripts and stuff. You can PM me with your ideas and I'll read them. I can start in maybe a week or so.
Got 3 more scripts to read (and only 1 feature), so yeah, I'm up for it!
Sure as hell can't hold down a job. Not too many professions out there that value forgetfulness. Prostitution, maybe. Politics, of course.

solo2001 owes me $50!

That's awesome. And having seen Horror Motel and reading some of your messages here it'd be an honour to get feedback from you :)
Right now my idea is only a rather general synopsis. I have my acts and plot points defined plus many small conflicts and a few scenes actually written down, but still missing much of it. I'm still getting inspiration from literally anything (mostly history shows though it's certainly not a period piece) but I think some stuff will only 'come to me' during writing.
Anyway, I'll sort out what I have for now when I have some time off uni and send it over :)

I don't really want to open a new thread for this, although it isn't really related to the original post (but is related to aspiring filmmakers). On Monday this big Israeli movie was filming in my dad's house.. It's by some famous director here (but don't think anyone would know him abroad). The cinematographer is German though (Fred Kelemen). I spent the day "on the set" (at my dad's house lol) which was a really exciting experience. There were around 100 people - actors/extras and crew - there. One of the three scenes they shot even included a massive crane for the camera.. They were there from 2pm til 4am, for three, 2-minutes scenes. What excited me most though is that they shot on film, not digital. They even made a little dark room for it. The producer told me the camera is worth 100,000euros and that they had to fly abroad to get the film rolls for it as there's none left in Israel!

Next Monday they film at my dad's office (as he's one of the few businessmen left in this country who actually support the art and culture) so I'm going again. I'd happily spend 14 hours and more of every day on a set. I loved it.

Sorry for rebumping this ol' thang..

Just looking for someone who can review my synopsis now and what I wrote so far, considering all the chances. And if you write too maybe we could exchange ideas. I find when I talk about my writing I write much quicker and it helps me thinks deeper and come up with wiser ideas ;)
