Why shoot 35mm? Why not 16mm/Super16? Is this your first movie? If it is the why go with a feature off the bat? Why not start by making a short version of it then submit that to get more money to make the feature length version? Stand back and really think of what you are doing before you do it--otherwise you are asking for trouble.

Tips for working with 35mm:

A badly shot film is equal to a badly shot video.

A boring story on film is equal to a boring story on video.

Distributors will distribute any old crap with the right names or tits and ass attached.

Y5B will see the end of the solar system anyway.
