Scripts are not just a minor aspect of the business they ARE its most important part (as petrol is to a car). The Writer - Director? Part of the problem, as I see it, is how scripts are assessed. For example, something like 85% of the Australian movies that have flopped over the last five years, have all been young ‘writer-director’ driven i.e. the director has also written them. This is ok, if the director has a ‘gift’ for good screenwriting or has been trained. But in the majority of cases, they don’t and haven’t. In fact, most have little or no experience writing scripts at all, and yet this is where a lot of the past funding has gone. Has quality been the determining factor here? http://www.abc.net.au/local/stories/2008/08/27/2358430.htm (Hear Jan Sardi, one of Australia’s most successful screenwriters telling it like it is) New Screenwriters and Old At the other end of the scale, are the New Screenwriter’s Programs, where a novice who shows talent /potential can get between $5000 - $10000 for writing a screenplay under the mentorship of a qualified script editor. Sounds good, but for the great majority of these potentially good writers, this marks the beginning and the end of their careers. Because very few - if any - of these projects ever reach the next stage of development. Why? A scroll back through the old AFC files will show literally 100s of abandoned writers and scripts. Is quality the determining factor here? Old or seasoned screenwriters should not be allowed to slip through without delivering the goods. There have been several recently released movies, written by ‘seasoned’ screenwriters that have been complete flops. Scripts should be assessed on their merits along and not because they were written by well known scriptwriters. The Viability Factor Quality and potential are two out of three factors that should guide script assessors and the industry in general. The third factor is: viability. Assessors should ask themselves how viable is this script in terms of it being successful in the marketplace? This is a complex question. For example, a script may be good, and at the same time, have the capacity to attract both popular and art-house audiences; or it may have a strong appeal to one or the other. It might even be groundbreaking and innovative, but with little popular appeal, except for perhaps movie critics, special interest groups and intellectuals. Before a script is assessed, its category should be determined along with its marketplace potential. But how? Feasibility studies would be one way. In the past few months, a collection, of what their makers and others have called ‘promising’ films have all nose-dived at the box office e.g. Not Quite Hollywood. Lets face it, it’s a nice little documentary, but really, where’s its audience base? Apart from a few nostalgic baby-boomers and one or two special interest groups – there’s none! In the marketplace, business projects based on feasibility studies are usually the ones that prosper and last. The Upsidedown Pyramid A good place to start is for the assessors to ask themselves: what elements made the top 20 most successful films in Australia popular? Well written scripts that contain many of these most popular elements should be given priority and placed at the top of the pyramid. Presently, the pyramid has been made to stand on its head, with the art-house and the esoteric on top at the heavy end. But these films, no matter how ‘important,’ ‘groundbreaking’ or ‘smart’, do not have the audience drawing capacity to sustain a viable and prosperous film industry. Accountability Assessors have a very important job - it is they who are responsible for moving the business forward. They should not only be ‘experienced’ in the craft of script analysis, but have a ‘head’ for business as it affects their industry. They should also follow a set of ESTABLISHED guidelines, that would make the possibility of nepotism and personal preference less likely in the decision making process. Another important aspect of all this is accountability. That assessors have not been made accountable is a pretty DUMB business move - when you consider that every successful business is based on accountability i.e. on the logic behind why particular decisions were made. Assessors in the Australian Film Industry need to be made accountable, to the writers and the industry, for the decisions they make.

The Rich Pom - the clever person who's showing us all how to earn money working from home.... Scam or Not? If he is allowed to advertise with Kyle and Jackie O, Mix106.5, NineMSN and Ticketek - maybe it isn't scam?! Surely these people would have done checks?! I know for a fact that they would legally have to do full research into a business like this before they can promote it. If this was a scam, why do ANZ Bank, Citibank, Westpac Loans, Travel Agencies, Qantas etc all do his method of online marketing? Why do some people have to be so narrow minded? Why can't some people think for a moment - there are real people earning real money with affiliate marketing! Do you really believe that NineMSN, 2DAYFM - Kyle and Jackie O in particular and Ticketek wouldn't do any kind of research and checks before allowing him to advertise with them?! Wake up! These companies would have legal teams that would assess this, scrutinise it before it gets aired or published. Would celebrities endorse a scam? No, don’t think so. Would NineMSN put a link on their homepage to a “scam site?” No, don’t think so. Sorry, but looking back on it now after joining, I have to say that more people should open their eyes to something that might be real. >> I have joined the rich pom to find out for myself. Here's my findings: I have earned my money back within one week. I have now got a website set up that the rich pom taught me how to do. It is 100% legal, thousands of Australian companies do this day in, day out. I AM MAKING MONEY! I only put this blog up because I have joined, I am getting all the support I need and most importantly, it WORKS. Some people (one person in particular) has been posting negative comments everywhere. Sad and pathetic. It is very bad that some of us cannot take the blinkers off for one moment and think about something that might actually be real. - 1 reply Thu, 26 Apr 2007 03:42:19 GMT http://blogoforum.com/tag/pom+review+rich+scam+the+therichpom.com/re-rich-pom-review-6530.html http://blogoforum.com/tag/pom+review+rich+scam+the+therichpom.com/rich-pom-review-6522.html The Rich Pom Are you tired of searching the internet for ways to make money on the internet, but getting constantly bogged down in the latest and greatest "Get Rich Quick Scam? I was! Until I found The Rich Pom At first glance, TheRichPom looks like your typical "scam" web site. Glorifying what it's doing, telling you how it's going to make you "super rich" super quick. It's as if all your prayers have been answered at once! What is surprising about The Rich Pom is the honesty and flamboyant language on the site. It's as if the site leaks honesty, yet arrogance. "What the hell are you doing reading down here? If you’re STILL not sure, then please go! If your measly amount of money you earn every month keeps you happy and you don’t want more, then fine. GO – I honestly don’t care." -Excerpt from The Rich Pom There is no such thing as a free lunch, and The Rich Pom is no exception. Purchasing the e-book from The Rich Pom will not instantly make you rich, nor will it make you rich tomorrow ... But it will teach you in an easy to understand way (Although somewhat condesending !) how you can take advantage of the internet to earn some SERIOUS cash. WAKE UP PEOPLE - THE RICH POM IS NOT A SCAM, IT'S REAL! - 1 reply Thu, 26 Apr 2007 03:39:59 GMT http://blogoforum.com/tag/pom+review+rich+scam+the+therichpom.com/rich-pom-review-6522.html http://blogoforum.com/tag/pom+review+rich+scam+the+therichpom.com/rich-pom-scam-not-6506.html Make up you own minds people. Here are three scenarios. Number one. The Rich Pom sells a document explaining step by step how to make money by affiliate marketing. The document costs $79 and if you have no idea where to start gives you some grounding and relevant information. Yes there are affiliate links. Why wouldn't there be. After all that what he's teaching you how to do. yes, I have bought the document and it has opened up a whole new insight into where to begin and how to begin. I have bought other programs that are nowhere near as informative or concise as this one. Number two. A major options trading company invites people to free seminars. These seminars are conducted in such a way that it makes it sound incredibly easy to make huge money on the stock market. They convince people to buy their product for $3,999 with a money back guarantee that states in part that if you don't make three times what you paid for the course in three months they would refund your money in full. While going through the course they encourage you to use their online software which costs about (from memory) $99 a month to access. They also encourage you to make your own notes in the workbooks and to highlight sections of relevance. When you don't make the amount of money they say you will and try to make good on the guarantee, they point you to a clause that states that the goods must be in a resalable condition to claim the refund. Yes, my husband bought this program and after he died and I had no interest or use for it I tried to claim the refund. i was told, in no uncertain terms that because he had jotted a few notes in pencil that the guarantee was void. Number three. Every day of the week all of you who use the internet would no doubt go to major sites such as search engines, community portals, real estate guides, car guides, newspapers etc etc. How do you think they make their money. Yes, that's right. Shock horror affiliate marketing. But I don't see any of you in here bagging the big players for making millions each month in exactly the same way as hundreds of thousand of people round the world are doing right now. And I don't see you bagging them for NOT sharing their information on how to do it. This is just another typical example of Australia's tall poppy syndrome. Who cares whether you buy the Rich Pom's document or not. Not me for one. There are plenty of other documents out there that explain affiliate marketing, some better than other's. The whole point of this is that why should all these mega rich companies make all the profits themselves. Wouldn't you like a piece of the action as well. If you would then learn how it works and use it to your advantage. It can be done by anyone who has a little bit of nouse. Go find the information for free if you like, but you will struggle without some sort of guidance. I know which one of these scenarios makes me feel more ripped off, but you can make up your own minds.
