Absolutely awesome video Allan! Glad to say my premiere was a sucess and so was my film release! Would be great if you could give me any tips on my recent film as I still have a long way to go but i am very proud of how far i have come! I really felt the first point of the video was extremely important and is a thing neglected a lot in short or amuteur films, will definately use that tip a lot more in the future!
I always appreciate your advice and insight! I made a short film in 2019, and since then I have been focusing on feature screenplays in the hopes of optioning. I also have considered a second short that utilizes better equipment to act as a proof of concept for the screenplay. Best part of screenwriting is that it doesn't require a budget, with the exception of coverage and entries into competitions.
You're very welcome, Ryan!! So glad you've gotten value from my experiences!! Absolutely screenwriting and being a PA is by far the cheapest way to break into the industry. Oh that is awesome!! Wishing you the best on getting your screenplay optioned! Be sure to check out my Nichol Fellowship feedback or my screenwriting feedback resources video for the Feedback filter!
Hi, Allan I stumbled across your channel tonight looking for resources to help an industry friend submit to the streaming platforms. But OMG! I'm so glad that I found your channel. Your content is super clear and helpful. You seem super chill and laid back. You have a genuine and supportive personality and that is rare with a lot of content creators. Your tips are great! Your smile is contagious and I've never watched a video about filmmaking and smiled through the whole thing. Lol I love the Tip about doing something that inspires you and having fun. I think a lot of creators lose sight of that after a while. I wish you the best Would love to collaborate in the future. Keep in touch ☕ Mocha
Hey Lady Mocha! So glad that I was able to help! Thank you so much, I try to keep it fun and entertaining here for folks while they're learning! Much much love. Yeah inspiration emulation is just a fundamental part of loving what you do and we get so caught up in awards and other nonsense that we don't take time to just enjoy what we're doing!! So important for the long haul! It would be my pleasure to collaborate in the future for sure! Thanks again -Allan
