How is the production cycle planned?
I dont really know anything about movie production.
We know that you are planning for roughly 9 months of production. How much is preparation, filming, editing and so on?
Also I know its on the website but maybe it would be good to get a little more info on the movie in the OP. And maybe a bit about why it will be a good story for the movie.
Thanks for asking. The pre-production phase is when story boards are finalized for each screen, the actors are all attached, locations are selected, the team (which includes director, cinematographer, other staff) come together for planning.. This is roughly four to six weeks, depending on locations selected and licenses for location. Filming then begins, and continues for roughly 12 weeks. This is followed by the posts-production, which includes editing (including sound editing), music, and any reshoots required. This also continues for 12 weeks about. While in post-production, we will submit rough cuts to the major film festivals in early 2017. The film will be ready for distribution in the spring. We have distributors lined up domestically, but will also secure global distribution.
If we can get the minimum VCAP tokens sold by September 1 (25,000 VCAPS), we will begin building the portion of the website that is to be set aside for our VCAP holders to participate in the filmmaking through live feeds, some of the dailies, and pre-screening next projects.
The story is very good, and has been getting buzz among producers. Listen Carefully is a smart sexy comedy that pokes fun at corporate culture and consumerism. The four girls are fresh out of college and don’t want to start as interns, so they create a ridiculous product which lets them make money on their own terms. Granted, it’s a comedy and the girls are mischievous-minded, but they basically create an invention that doesn’t do anything. Because of hysteria, anger, and word of mouth, their “box” becomes something quite large indeed. The corporations come in, completely furious and try to destroy them. Parallel to this story line, every television in the country is keeps getting hacked to show monkeys flinging crap at each other, which comments further on that state that corporate power has left us in. This is, of course, quite different from cryptocurrency which does have purpose, and does do something. But, its statement is the same—we can create something outside the rules of convention.
An extra plus to support your starting with our film is that it deals with money. Listen Carefully tells the story of a business run by young innovators, who are taking money and selling tickets in several scenes. Of course, they will make it clear they accept bitcoin, Ethereum, or any other alt coin, and are set up to be paid that way.
Please let me know if you have more questions. And please buy some VCAPS and tell all your friends in the community.
