Title: Anyone got a connect to a movie production company? Post by: gweedo on May 14, 2014, 05:51:52 AM I want to pitch a horror movie idea that I thought up today! It would be pretty unique and with the right director could be super dark.

If people like your idea then they will definitely invest :) Title: Re: Anyone got a connect to a movie production company?

I'm sure you could get it crowdfunded in bitcoins if it was good enough and people liked it. I'm also not sure if movie companies even listen to 'pitches' anymore and if they do it'll be incredibly difficult to get one, but if you've got a great script it'll probably find its way to them eventually.

I was thinking a low budget one would. I am not looking to get a meeting with warner brothers company unless they want to meet but yeah just a small company could do this easily just thinking about all the different sets. I have no clue what actors are paid or any movie work is paid really. Maybe, but I think you'll need more than just an idea. What else have you got? I'd still write the script first. There's websites where you can read movie scripts to help you get a gist of what's needed. If you put it on the net and it's good, people will pass it around and it'll get noticed. I think it'd have to be pretty unique or have something new for a horror though. They've been done to death. Title: Re: Anyone got a connect to a movie production company?

I just want to make sure people would watch it before committing to a script which is a lot of work. Title: Re: Anyone got a connect to a movie production company?

Having an idea and putting it into a followable and readable script are entirely different things. Send me the treatment if/when you've done it if you want any constructive feedback. I'm a little intreagued to know what it's all about ;). |
