Zitat des Tages von Dana Brunetti:
The production value of YouTube videos is not there.
Appointment viewing is dead, and I think it is going away.
You can learn a lot from somebody's video bio: if you're not going to gel with the actor or a crew.
The power lies with content creators now, but if you can't reach people, there's no point.
Hollywood used to control the distribution; now Silicon Valley does.
Don't sell credits; don't sell walk-on roles... If people want to back you, they'll back you. But if you have to entice people will walk-on roles and crazy credits, you're undermining yourself.
The issue of doing an adaptation of a book is the theater of the mind, and so you always face that.
If I had the opportunity to buy the latest movie that's out that month and watch it on the comfort of my big screen TV, I would pay for that.
You can have the best people in the business, but if they're not collaborating - and they're butting heads - then it's all going to go south.
There's guys like me who aren't going to the theater, so distributors are leaving money on the table.
It's like everybody is shooting something, and everybody's a filmmaker; everybody can shoot a cat video and post it. So the big thing now is - for people that have talent and have something to say, and are creative, and are capable of making something good - is how do they get attention to it?
When you go in for any life rights, you always ask, 'Who would you have play this person, or who would you have direct?'
Everybody is always going to have haters. It comes with the job. You have to have a tough skin and not let it affect you.
I hardly ever go to the movies.
How we get power, how cars are powered, when the technology and resources to have something that is infinitely better, we still use old-school technology. We're still using that same exact structure.
The cars haven't advanced that much since we were kids. When you boil it down, it's still a gas combustion engine.
Between Twitter and Facebook, early word of mouth for a film can destroy it immediately or take something you've never heard of and make it a huge hit.
