Producers with documentary experience?

Howdy! I'm in post on a doc and we are using some photos and video footage under "fair use" (clips from YouTube, news, newspaper headlines, etc.) along with items in public domain. What is the proper way to identify footage we are using on screen and in the credits? I'm familiar with how to handle l...

It's true that fair use is a defense to copyright infringement and that posting work on YouTube does not put that work into the public domain. But there is ample precedent for fair use in the document...

The clips we are using from archived news stories and videos people have posted on YouTube help support the argument we’re making in our doc and from everything I’ve been reading and watching online (and what one of our producers with a law degree had to say), it falls under fair use.

Jill Remensnyder

Just to clarify- I’m not posting anything on YouTube…

Shadow - it's become way too complicated for a small time country boy like me so I'm returning to retirement. I just don't need the aggravation. C ya'll.

Screenwriter/Producer - Have laptop, will travel!

Hello! I'm a writer/producer who bounces back and forth between Portland and LA. Pretty Broken, a film I wrote and produced, came out last month and I'm trying to get my next project off the ground. Planning on being in LA from end of May thru early July to network with other writers and focus on pursuing my writing career. Cheers!

Amanda Toney

Jill, it's great to have you here! Portland is such a thriving art community, you're lucky to split time there!

Andrew Guerrero

Congrats ✊️✊️! It’s a great feeling!

Belgard Elemba

great job God bless you

J'hon Williams

Congratulations and best of luck on your next project. It would be great to catch up when you're back in Portland.

Female Cinematographers

Hello! I need recommendations for a LA based female cinematographer for a short film project shooting early 2019. I’d love to hear your recommendations. Thanks!

Royce Allen Dudley

Assuming you're looking for a professional, you will be hard-pressed to do better than Jessica Gallant. I don't think she's on here but she's in LA and easily Googleable. If you have trouble reaching her send me a PM.

Ryan McCoy

Jill, I know a couple of them here in LA. Email me at: rynoryder@hotmail.com and I can forward you their info.

Any recommendations on film festivals to submit to in the UK? Exploring my European festival submission options. Which fests do you like?

Jill Remensnyder

Thanks, Tek. We've had a lot of success using their site but it's hard to judge what the user's personal experience is. I guess Im basically asking which festivals other filmmakers have enjoyed screening/attending. Do you have any favs?

Tek Doko
