    It shouldn't. It's pretty standard film student stuff. He'd be about midway in my class in terms of cinematography composition and editing. The mockumentary credits are awful, but they don't look too bad. None of it is great, but this guy is a student right? He's not pretending to be the finished article.

    I took a digital film editing class in college and really enjoyed it. Though I don't like group projects because no one else seemed into it like I was.

    Yeah, he wants to be a film-maker, he's not yet a film-maker, but he's going about it the right way and he's wanting to talk about his film and television ideas and he wants to just make stuff and get better at it. Whether its all fictitious or not, its completely harmless.

    Have you read yours? You're coming across like a school ground bully.

    You've had two warnings in this thread already. If you want to debate this any further, do it via PM.

    And to add to that, though I acknowledge I was being a dick, there's no love or off-topic forum that could've gone in.

    It's fun but you have to get with a crew, most of the stuff I do I do it all myself so I'm doing everything. If you can, pursue it and no way am I finished. I mean, we do this for film school, nothing is officially released or anything.

    You can't be a finished article unless you make your first film/short/show even then you're not a finished article and you have to understand, even then you're not a finished piece. You keep making films then at the end of your life, you might a legacy, you might not.

    I'm sorry, I'm not sure I follow. Fanny has to get with a crew but you do it all by yourself? You're not the finished article but you are doing everything?

    It depends, I'm capable of doing it on my own. However, if you're not use to it or new to it, you need a crew.

    To clarify, I can do that on my own but directors don't shoot their own stuff themselves, they don't storyboard or screenwrite (some do) but do you know what I mean? A crew will help you set up cameras, I do all of my own stuff (handling the camera, editing, etc.)

    I love editing more than directing though but with my upcoming short film, I'm not going to be touching any cameras. They'll be setting up the shots from our shot list and storyboard.

    Realistically the minimum you really need to shoot a short film is a director, a cameraman, a sound guy and actors. You should never have less than that really otherwise you're going to end up with a production that is a bit of a mess. Your director shouldn't really double up too much, if he's doing any of those other jobs, he's not really directing properly.

    It depends, we want to turn this into an eventual social drama series so we have a proper crew with legitimate credentials incase our pilot gets greenlit. I think the angle (focusing on sub-cultures) is pretty cool so yeah.

    Yeah of course ideally you want a much bigger crew than that. What I'm saying is that you should never really have less than that if you're wanting to do a good job of it. You should never really make something where one man is the entire crew, not if you want it to be half decent.

    So I did get into the industry and am doing stuff. Have a premiere for a film coming out in Sep, but I personally dislike the film (saw the rough cut). I don't know if I will go. I've been away for about 7-8 years. Damn. I'm writing screenplays, have produced some stuff, storied another

    Trying to GET my people to look at profit making instead of whatever my director friend is doing.

    Mik have you ended up directing anything yet man? would love to know? Ill try to get my old account back.

    Fuck. Cheers man but It took ten years man. Ten years and I am now a name. A minor name but a name with great networks in LA and Hollywood. I have gotten a lot of respect from a lot of very talented screenwriters in the Industry but it took me a few years to

    GET THE FUCK OFF OF RAJAH

    That shit was killing my soul.

    But I was going through shit then I thought - okay - if you want to do this. Stop talking about it... And just FUCKING DO IT.

    Here's some pages from my 52 page pilot btw (pitching to Screen Australia and STAN - Netflix for US later on depending if they pay well)



    I have studied a lot of Kurasawa movement / in composition so I really hoped to hear from Mik. I legit studied the craft inside and out. I can put together a logline, story with 3 acts, always write the ending first and bam, you got the formula to a film. The trick now is to repeat this so you turn yourself into a business and make profit. I have been behind a lot of stuff influentially from stuff like Heartbreak High (am workig with one of the writers on this - with the whole 'eshay' culture - was doig a short about them back i 2014 so yeah)

    Where's MikeHunt so I can jokingly rub it into his face? Just... Do your dreams. People will mock you, say evil shit about you, laugh at you but just do it. People who put you down instead of chasing their own befuddles the hell out of me.

    Good for you bud, keep chasing the dream. It's mostly an industry of hard work, building your connections and taking as many opportunities offered to you as possible.

    I'm going to be honest with you, I'm not going to read your script. I've recently left my role in film education having done it for the best part of 18 years and giving hundreds of young people a start in the industry, but the idea of reading a script for someone and providing feedback gives me weird PTSD type cold chills, I've left that stuff behind for now. However, if you're writing scripts and you're experimenting, if you're still learning and you're paying your way working in the industry, then you're doing better than 99% of the people trying to make it in this industry.

    Keep up the hustle!

    Oh no, I already have someone who looks over my scripts. If you live in Australia, do you know someone named Karel?

So yeah, bit odd I thought beefy could be in the whatsapp with them. I feel dumb.
    I just wanted to win it fairly and yeah annoying that guys like Comet Kid suddenly appeared after years. But then you also campaigned for wrestling posters to appear when I told you I didn’t want the help.

    Really enjoying this revenge tour here. Lghtnng returning to a barren rajah, intent on righting the wrongs of years gone by and showing all the naysayers that he finally made it, and being met with absolute silence and a single rogue Mik post. What a thrill. Knowing MikeHunt put that massive chip on your shoulder for the best part of a decade to get you where you are, while he has likely not given a second thought to a single word he has said here as he lies three bottles of tonic wine deep watching homes under the hammer.

    Speaking as one of MikeHunt’s top “victims”…we’ve actually made kinda peace. I went off my tits and he also apologised for niggling me so much. We’re X/Twitter buddies now though neither of us use it so much.

    The now permabanned Seanny One Ball (way too many homophobia jokes) was fuelling making way too many real life jokes and MH was kinda laughing along but even he agreed it was getting too much. Apparently Seanny (before banned) is gonna kick my head in next time he sees me in Blairgowrie if he sees me. That was 1-2 years ago but he hasn’t done it yet.

    Hahaha. This place is pretty dead. I was here to rub it in his face then... Nothing. So with that, I am going to go live my best life with my best friends and my best pets.
