Getting Started actually Getting Started 2
Well, who said this wasn't a learning process?
In fact that's what this IS! A learning process.
I have now DARED to announce that intention which is better not announced because the chances of failure are ...I shudder to even imagine their scale. But coldly put, one out of every 10 movie ideas gets put down on paper. Out of those, one out of 10 makes it to screenplay form. Out of those, one out of 10 gets into final draft form. And one out of 10 final drafts get greenlit and one out of 10 of those actually start getting produced and this horrendous math continues through all the stages that make up that grand phrase FILM PRODUCTION! So when I announce confidently the making of a film, I know what is tilted against me. And to add to that, this is Independent Filmmaking so am going it without a producer. My little germ of an idea has progressed to treatment note, through to scripting and now the green light is shining even though I'm shining it myself.
