THE MAN WITH IDEAS
Guest
Hi, I have some fantastice ideas for films.
But thats all they are "ideas", will anyone just listen to ideas in the film industry, all i need is for someone to listen, is there such a thing as an idea person?

the only place where 'ideas men' flourish I would say would be in the happy world of advertising.
but you really should have a back-up skill. ideas are cheap, and easy to steal.

It depends on what sort of ideas you have. I've often thought about what I would do if I saw a director walking down the street who I thought would be perfect to direct one of my ideas. The problem is that most of them can't be summed up by a tagline or 'movie a meets movie b'. Before anyone suggests that this means my ideas are probably crap they are wrong! If you can't do as i have just said then it will be hard to convince someone of your vision. If you can then it had better be a killer idea and be original otherwise they will have no touble using it and claiming they thought of it. Write a script for it so, even if it's crap, they have to buy that off you aswell as the idea. They'll probably just rewrite it.
