Urban Films

[E-Brand]

Hey,

I'm a brazillian independent film producer, and i'm making a digital film that pass here in Rio de Janeiro, it's almost all made.

I'm looking for people of other places, that is interesting in making digital films with urban topics, and make Like ONE film, with stories of diferents places, in their own language and subtitles in english of course.

If there is anyone interested, besides here in this board, can send me a email: [email protected]

That's it.

I have a full length screenplay dealing with urban issues set in New Jersey . I'm kinda curious about your situation but not exactly clear as to what kind of project you intend to make.

So I got a few questions.

Is the movie you intend to make essentially a few unrelated, separate short films edited together into one. Or are you interested in seemingly unrelated plots that ultimately tie in together?

The movie you're about to finish - is it the first movie you've produced?
Is it full length?
Can you provide a synopsis of it and a link to it?
If you have produced other movies, what were they?
Are you strictly digital, or capable to shoot on film?
What's your budget?
Your past projects - was it professional cast and crew and the project you're interesting in collaborating on - cast and crew Union or non-Union and are you able to hire SAG actors?

And what kind of travel arrangements, if any, are we talking about here, being that you are in Brazil?

Thank You.

sorry to be difficult...could someone define urban for me?

[GREATwarEAGLE]

Most dictionaries define it as anything city related.

I usually think of it as inner city related, lower income.
When E-Brand posted that he/she is looking to make films with urban topics, I took that to mean the inherent difficulties of surviving in an urban environment.

I'm thinking more like shorts films edited in one, the stories must be related of urban problems with youngs between 18-25.

My name is Eduardo Brand, I'm a brazillian, this is the firt long film that I produce, I had already made a short film, some comercials and now, besides this long film, I'm making sports comercials.

This film is about some youngs that live in a building complex, and have professional cast and crew.

Would be interesting have a story that pass in USA, and other in Europe.

It's digital, but will turn to 35mm after.

The stories must be like they are all happening at the same time.

i wrote a script you might like...should i e-mail it to you??

also, what are you going to do with the film once it's put together...

oh, and do you have funding??

[E-Brand]

sure, send it by email, or put it here, no difference for me

After the film is all together, I will search for distribuicion, I'm starting to make contacts.

I'm taking the negative cost of my own and my partners, it's risky, but we didn't want to wait to much to start shooting
