we've pretty much ran through every genre. we really like
to make low budget horror movies though.

This may sound alittle bit retarded but it's entirley true.
A film, no longer then 20 minutes can be sold to this place
at $100 a minute. If you make the film aroun 8 minutes or
less, they'll definetley buy it, that's $800, you sell
several and that's more. They then screen the films on
commercial television twice each year for two years. When I
was 14, I sold them two films and got paid alittle bit over
$600 for them. I've decided, now that I want to make films
again, that I'll cut scenes out of films I'm making and sell
them as shorts. No matter how shit the film is, they'll buy
it. I once saw a ten minute short(bought for $1000) that was
just shot with a video camera, it was just an old,
unattractive woman slowing walking into a pool in her
clothes with an umbrella. It was extremley shit and worse
then I can manage to explain. So, no matter how shit your
film is, they'll buy it. The only thing is that you have to
have complete ownership over the short before you sell it,
that means you can't use copyrighted songs on drink constant
amounts of pepsi in the film. If you want to know more, just
say; I'm sure afew other people in here know what I'm
talking about though.

Ha, ask an Australian. It's an Australian program, an
Australian will tell you. Tek will tell you.

Oh, so you meant $100 AUSTRALIAN per minute? Hah! That's
Mickey Mouse money! That's, what, 47 cents in real money?

since this is an indie film topic, i am going to ask: has
anyone seen "ghostworld" (thora birch, steve buscemi,
directed by terry zwigoff, who did crumb)?

I forgot about the money difference thing; that's alot less
in america. Now the idea probably doesn't sound so good to
you. Our money sucks, our drugs are fuckin' expensive and
our leader's retarded.
