Make a movie and then do what with it?.. placed it in film festivals or directly to DVD where few people if any knows of its existence, and face it Hollywood has locked most out, it is simply time for another venue to be created
The Alanthus Chamber Project is designed to launch a new Independent Movie Industry based in Chicago, pushing movies just like Hollywood does. Complete with television and radio ads, movie theaters and an Independent Sci-fi/horror/creature channel called The Halloween Channel
The problem is finding the right people who would dedicate themselves to such a project, involvement in this project would insure your place in this Industry, it?s enough talent in this forum alone to launch it
I never went to film school but self-taught myself enough to produce movies and if you go to my website everything on it was created by my brother and I with a project budget of one hundred dollars of duct tape, latex, clay, newspaper and junk around the house and the stuff on the site looks like it took thousands of dollars and a crew to create http://www.geocities.com/funchesfilms/index.html ?sorry to get cocky but I?m looking for those that know they are the best in their ability this is the only way this project will activate, it was told to me by many in the business that the majority of filmmakers go to school but end up in other trades rarely or never to used their talents,
Are you going to be one of those that this happens to or would you like to get involve in a project to use your abilities..This is a forum but things like this are not discuss here and I would value opinions and if you are interested in joining this project e-mail funchesfilms?yahoo.com looking for a cast, crew and others to activate a page in Chicago?s history?

Sounds great. Too bad I'm in Hollywood or I'd join in a second!!

Good luck, I wish I could be involved.

hey thanks, It would be nice if you could get involved,..In Chicago it's just nothing is happenning here, that people have given up, I'm hearing excuses after excuses most don't want to advance past making shorts, or that they may actually have to test their skills on a serious project, people even blaming things on the actors unions, some of the excuses I heard are to strange to even post, it's like this Creature thing is going around eating people if they try to work on any project destined for the theater..humm..that would make a good B-Film..but I know now that it's going to take a lot of time and leg work to find the right people

I know this won't help - but it isn't the city that's at fault.

People here in Los Angeles - the english language movie making capital of the world - are exactly the same. Many would rather talk about making a movie than actually making one.

you are right , it's not the city's fault..for I have met the enemy and it is us..but I did make a little headway and met some people interested in the project..also some of the "powers that be" viewed my website and thought it to be so weird and researched that I was contacted and they may be willing to finance a halloween channel, one of the things they wish to know is it enough quality movies by independents to supply such a channel, I may have to start another thread on this topic
