Sorry, but the Olympic closing ceremony seemed a tad Dystopian to me. At first it was like an old Dr. Who episode, and then later Ninja's dropped down on stage, but then the ghost of Elton John did a Rocket Man Piano launch. In the end, I was happy that Charlton Heston didn't show up, and my wacki-Utopian brain suspects that the old Logan's Run movie is getting Royalties.

Making a Film Parody? This may be food for thought: Below is a description of Fair Use and Parody. Note that it suggests that Parody ridicules the original work. I've heard that "Ridiculing" someone is a basis for many a lawsuit - frivolous or not. So filmmaker's, if you end up in court, paying for lawyer, etc...was it worth making a Parody?

I think I've figured out how to get everyone to read my posts -- IMPORTANT for those of you who are into FILMMAKING! So here's one way, use . I've also seen people use hashtags too, but I'm not sure if that's a Twitter (x) thing or what. (Please do tell if you have info to share on this.)

Also, I know that you can go into any Profile and click the follow button to get more frequent notices from users like myself.

So anyway, most that I meet at the Royal Starr Community Film Mixer have heard about my Roku and Amazon Fire TV channels. If you'd like to know more about how the movie/show distribution works, please see my website: MoviesPlusTV.com

Reading a creature-feature script about a loveable mutant alien who loves film. (Oh wait, that's me.) Anyway, this is Luc Robert Poirier and me hanging at the Film Mixer last night.

Jason Momoa plays the Spider character. A must see performance - very funny. The rest of the movie was very entertaining although rude at times -- (but of course, but what movie isn't nowadays!) Anyway, check out this movie on Roku.

FILM MIXER, 7pm. at Eastern Palace Club (TIKI BAR!)

It Looks like an easy drive if you're coming from 696 or 75. I think there's a 1-75 exit at 9mile and John R (use your google map thang.)

If you're coming from 8 mile it's easy to go directly to John R.

If you're coming from East side via 696, then you take the Dequindre/John R exit.
Easy, but remember when you're returning you may wish to take John R to 9 or 10 mile and drop down to Dequindre to catch 696 back home. Okay then, hope this helps, post a comment if you have better ideas.

REpost
"CASTING CALL!
Tales from The Neutral Zone will be filming two (2) 15-minute Star Trek fan films. The films will be a prequel and sequel to the ST:TNG episode "Yesterday's Enterprise."

We are in need to recast the lead role of Lt. Richard Castillo.

It's important to note that these films will be shot in 2 different locations: (1) at Neutral Zone Studios in Kingsland GA; and (2) a studio in North Carolina. The film dates are:
April 27-28 @ Kingsland
May 25-26 @ North Carolina
If you're interested in joining the cast, you would have to be available for both locations. Castillo is a prominent character in both films.

If you are interested and are available for both productions, please email your headshot to [email protected] with the subject line CASTILLO.

SERIOUS INQUIRIES ONLY PLEASE!

Thank you all!"

Mr. Know It All here, with some filmmaking advice. Do you see a theme in the Pics here? This is some of the talent I have booked in my films. They were not friends at the time, they were Talent. Moral: I know it's fun and easy to use your friends in your films. But the end result is a project that (might) not look professional. Whenever possible, USE REAL ACTORS/ACTRESS's!

PS: See ya at the next Royal Starr Community Film Mixer!

Our Story

Movies Plus aka Movies Plus TV: We love Indie Films and we help Indie Filmmakers. Movies Plus is a partner with the online film festival called The Metro Film Festival. The fest is in it’s inception, so I won’t dwell on that right now. What you need to know is that Movies Plus is an advocate for indie filmmakers of all types and genres and Movies Plus broadcasts on many platforms, including our Flagship Channel on Amazon Fire TV.

We reach over 340,000 subscribers on Fire TV, and our latest Roku channel has an audience of 60,000 and growing by about 1,000 new subscribers daily. Recently we published an Android app that serves as a gateway for film and media-makers who wish to broadcast on broader platforms like Roku and Fire TV.

We encourage you to submit your movie or TV show for broadcast. Its free, and you can easily add your film to our Android app by visiting www.MoviesPlus.org where you’ll find a Vimeo/Youtube “add” button. This will add you film to our online player, and then we’ll add it to our Android App for testing. If you do well, (and we know you will) then we will consider adding your video to our Roku/FireTV channels. Currently it’s free to have your video broadcast on all of our Channels. Nice ehh?

Please contact us for more info...Or simply message the curator at Facebook.com/DeanLach (don't forget to include a link to your movie/TV show.) THE NEXT METRO FILM FESTIVAL IS DEDICATED TO INDEPENDENT FILM & DIGITAL MEDIA. THIS INTERNATIONAL COMPETITION IS DESIGNED TO ADVANCE THE CAREER OF THE INDIE MEDIA MAKER WHILE HELPING TO PUBLICIZE AND PROMOTE SELECT-PROJECTS IN ALL PHASE OF PRODUCTION . OFFICIAL SELECTIONS INCLUDING FEATURES, SHORTS, AND WEBISODES WILL BE SCREENED.
