what would be the best movie genre for a film in a film festival?

January 282010

im making a movie for a film festival and i want it to win and get lots of good reviews. What should the genre be and what should it be about

Well, the best type of movie to make and get into a film festival is something with great, fresh content – great story, good performance, great direction, etc.. There is no genre preference (unless you are entering a film festival that focuses on a certain type of Genre). But if it were that easy, everyone would do it.

Good luck!

I’ve been watching horror movies a lot lately and i absolutely love them but i still get scared. Any help?

Watch the outtakes and behind-the-scenes footage IMMEDIATELY. Nothing like seeing someone made up as a monster start dancing.

I’m so sick of you bone head actors using "Yahoo Answers" as a method to fooling people into thinking you actually care.

So what even happens after a winner is choosen? Are you to follow through with the ideas presented, or do you just go about your daily rutine?

I’ll put my $ on the latter of the two.

Kudo’s to you Sir. And here is your answer: Get all your friends, family and associates to boycott their movies, music, etc. until they quit with their stupidity. It amazes me how they have these grossly obese bank accounts, homes, cars, etc. and still have the propensity to ask stupid questions. They might as well bring back the enormous Sally Struthers as a spokesperson for world hunger. At least then we knew where all the food was going.

Can a 14 year old submit a movie to the Sundance Film Festival?

January 232010

Me and a BUNCH of people are gonna make a movie, like an actual movie. We got all the stuff for it and everything. So we were wondering if its possible to submit our movie to the Sundance Film Festival. I was looking through the website and stuff and it talked a lot about "funding". We don’t really have (or need) any funding. So can I still submit it to the Sundance Film Festival? Oh and we’re all teens (14-16)

I couldn’t find anything that says you CAN’T submit, but at the same time, I’d be pretty surprised if they accepted a film made by 14-16 year olds.

Does watching horror movies cause peeps to have a mental sickness and less compassionate towards others?

Does watching horror movies cause peeps to have a mental sickness and less compassionate towards others?

I think it is different for each person. How involved is the person with the movies they watch..and how far displaced from reality are they. I personally love horror movies and they do not cause me mental illness. I also am an extremely compassionate person. Media of all sorts effects us…but movies are deliberately fictional and that gives them an edge I think. It gives them less power to effect us on a deeper level like the news or commercials do. They are deliberately subliminal, yes, but we go into it knowing this. Therefore, no, I do not think so.

What is the movie that had the highest budget and what movie earned the most ?

What is the movie that had the highest budget
and
what movie earned the most ?

AVATAR currently holds the record for the most expensive movie ever made, somewhere between $325 – $400 Million. But just wait … with inflation, the cost of movies going up, some day within a few years even AVATAR’s pricetage will be beaten. When 20th Century Fox made CLEOPATRA with Liz Taylor, at that time it had the highest budget of any film ever made: $30 million. Now, that amount wouldn’t even be considered realistic for a major motion picture produced today.

BTW – the highest grossing movie ever made is still GONE WITH THE WIND. The true way to find out which film grossed the most money is by comparing movie grosses Adjusted for Ticket Price Inflation.
(Adjusted to the estimated 2009 average ticket price of $7.18. Inflation-adjustment is mostly done by multiplying estimated admissions by the latest average ticket price. Where admissions are unavailable, adjustment is based on the average ticket price for when each movie was released (taking in to account re-releases where applicable).

So … here’s a partial list of the REAL BOXOFFICE WINNERS OF ALL TIME. Hold your breath – it ain’t gonna be what you think!!! And nope – TITANIC is NOT the highest grossing movie of all time!

1 Gone with the Wind MGM
2 Star Wars Fox
3 The Sound of Music Fox
4 E.T.: The Extra-Terrestrial Uni.
5 The Ten Commandments Par.
6 Titanic Par.
7 Jaws Uni.
8 Doctor Zhivago MGM
9 The Exorcist WB
10 Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs Dis.

I need movie ideas for a film festival?

January 212010

I need some ideas! What kind of movies would you want to see at a film festival.

Do a parody of a film. Parodies are funny, memorable, and generally everyone will take the time to watch and if its good, will get it. They also show a lot of creativity.

Also you can enter a parody film here and get some cash: http://www.parodybox.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=21&Itemid=40
