I'm working with Yellow House on an independent full length live action film adaptation of Dante Alighieri’s 'The Divine Comedy'. We have never used kickstater or created any other crowd funding campaigns before, and I was wondering what you all think of our first attempt. I know SA has strong roots in the independent film community and I look forward to any ideas or suggestions on how to promote a successful kickstarter, or constructive criticisms of our kickstarter video itself. Also, feel free to ask any questions about the film here. I will answer those that I can, and do my best to find the answers to those that I cannot. If there are any artists who would be interested in contributing to the film during the production phase check out our website listed at the end of the video and fill out an application. https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1875798282/dante-the-motion-picture https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fjfmj2Uvsog&t=29s For some reason when I play the video above it jumps to the 29 second mark. Does this happen for everyone else? I'm not a video expert so I'm not sure if it is happening on my system only. KING BONG fucked around with this message at 04:24 on Oct 17, 2014 |

One of the main reasons why we want to continue with this film is because of all the horrible adaptations. It surprised us that no studios have ever seriously attempted to bring the poem to film.

Sir John Feelgood posted:How are you going to deal w/ the fact that the Inferno is entirely dante walking around hell having conversations with people you need lots of background info to understand? That's a good question and one that came up at a lot of the early treatment, outlining, and script writing meetings. A lot of information is going to be conveyed through the dialogue between Dante and Virgil as he witnesses different scenarios unfold in front of him. We must remember that Dante is witnessing most of these events from aboard a boat. Though Dante doesn't speak to many of the characters in the rings we are carefully creating interaction between them in a way that keeps the audience attentive and entertained. Most of these scenes will involve historical characters that most of the audience will recognize, for those that don't we will carefully nudge them in the right direction without taking up too much time and boring them to death. For those that still don't understand it, we will keep them entertained and hope that one day they pick up a book. KING BONG fucked around with this message at 09:12 on Oct 17, 2014 |

gnarlyhotep posted:long stretches of exposition is really the only hope you have of doing this unless you're doing narration There will be narration, we are currently trying to decide on who should narrate. Dante, Virgil, or an unknown? Currently; we have 10 different treatments, outlines and scripts, and we are taking the best ideas from all of the different versions. One suggestion was to have both Dante, and Virgil narrate at different points in the film, but most of us felt it would be too confusing and muddle up the presentation. Another suggestion, was to have the narrations be in the voice of Dante Alighieri, the author, but we feel that it would take a lot of time to set that up in the film. I will say that for one of the scenes we will have real life body suspenders and self mutilators. We found a group of performers that are very eager to contribute.

I watched your kickstarter video again and it looks like you're putting a lot of effort into the production values, which is good. But there are no scenes with actors saying lines and acting. That's what makes or breaks a movie. At least a real movie. If you want it to be another long special effects masturbation sequence that's your choice, but if you want to make a real movie you need good acting, blocking, camera work and most of all directing. Show me your director's and actor's chops, because so far I haven't seen anything.

Rapman the Cook posted:I'd rather be raped with an axe than support that film or ever watch it. two of them are definite woulds. OP is right though we were big supporters of Swap.avi in the independent film community. Perhaps instead of dante's inferno if you did Dana's Lesbian Bordello. We could get something going. Have someone dress up as a big frog that says "get in" or "get out" as a stretch goal.
