Making content is time consuming and hard work BUT can be very rewarding when it gets noticed. In working with directors, looking for projects (paid or passion), producing partners, or just networking... what does a producer look for? I realize this is a subjective question and that's the point. I a...

David Garner. Montgomery, AL. I wrote my first full length screenplay last year without ever having read a single screenplay. I sent it to a successful Hollywood writer, producer, actor (and first cousin) and asked for his unbiased opinion. He loved my creativity, imagination and style, but said my...

Good luck with it, David. Struggling with formatting is a much better position to be in than struggling with creativity and voice.

Or at least respond with a sense of humor to a lead thread. Doug- I just felt it was necessary to remove something that was generating too much negative commentary.

Expand commentSteven – as a country boy, I'm a little slow at times – please forgive me. Now that I've moved on to my Producer's chair (I still love writing), I look at Indie film-making with a slightly different bent. The original post has to do with what a Producer looks for. I look for reliable people – training we can get on set. One other thing that's important to me is people with reasonable expectations – team players. You raised a valid point in that you seem to be driven by some monetary motive but my point (observation) is that there is only limited pecuniary remuneration available to the Independent filmmaker at this time. I see this as a valid topic of discussion – don't you?
Thank you everyone for sharing your comments, epxerience, and insight! It's invaluable to me as a growing filmmaker. I am grateful.
