  Set designers and dressers: how does one become one?

  2 0 You could also start as an art intern for any movie looking for one. On the low budgets the interns often are the swing gang. You could also look into interning in a theater art department. There are hundreds of really talented art people in Seattle, get out there and meet some of them (see other comments below about the monthly happy hour and the NWFF board). Once you meet them, offer to take them to lunch or coffee. Always pay for the lunch or coffee even if they try to split the check. You will have earned the right to keep in touch when they need someone one their next project. Jennifer Roth answered in Filmmaking Week about 1 year ago Answer, comment & read 3 more answers »

  What's the best way to find a producer? I have a script that I'd like to direct but am clueless when it comes to finding a budget.

  0 0 Do you have a reel? Have you directed theater? Do you have anything other than a desire to direct? If you meet and like a producer you should have something to show them. Jennifer Roth answered in Filmmaking Week about 1 year ago Answer, comment & read 5 more answers »

  I just heard that yet another TV series set in Seattle is being filmed in BC. WA state has a competetive film tax incentive, right? What gives?

  0 0 James Keblas and Amy Dee worked tirelessly to bring this show here and they got close. They did make us competitive. Ultimately, the bean counters in charge decided to go with a market they knew and understood. Many Hollywood/TV producers are like lemmings and they follow everyone else instead of trying new things. Indie producers are brave enough to come. Jennifer Roth answered in Filmmaking Week about 1 year ago Answer, comment & read 5 more answers »
