@eddiemarsan @KathyBurke@deathpod_ haha I love this show so much. So little actually funny irreverance to be found out there imo, but this show is tops. And you two... killer combo. lol
The studios trained non-blockbuster audiences out of the habit of going to the cinema. By not putting enough diverse content into the theatres, they alienated one of their most committed market shares.
A really interesting perspective.

In 1941, sisters Thom and Mars create a machine called "Lola" which has the capability to tap into radio and television signals from the future.

@Loran_Dunn We had one of those - the funders ditched it. The issues are complex though - value for money in terms of the talent pipeline, acute unwillingness in the market place to give space to such films. Festival success or nothing. And even a festival doesn't translate into a future.
@JFACasey This is also about how the industry spends its money. I worked in development for many years, only earning money from that. What I got paid 15 years ago to edit a script is what I get paid now. Ask the funders and broadcasters - has a script editor's fee gone up? The answer: NO
@nia_loves_films Too right Nia. Not the place. In fact, never the place. But especially not at a festival when you know people who have given up their first born to get their film made are standing right behind you. Have some manners folks.
@HelenSimmons8 My big advice, work out which task you do best when. When to write/be creative? When to do the boring shit? When to muse and walk and not waste precious writing/admin time? Write everything down that you need to do. everything. Then when you do it you feel like a goddam badass.
On last nightโs MK3D @BFI Mark was joined by four special guests; director Andrew Legge, director @praveshkumar_, actress @josielawrence1, and actor Brian Cox. The show was filled with a lively audience and detailed discussion of all things film.
