Welcome. Steemfilm is what we need.
Thank you. I hope we keep you engaged!
Sounds like very interesting times ahead! What's so fun is that everything that's happening in Steemit is new, we're breaking new boundaries that never existed! I know a few people who will be interested in this project! Nice one guys!
Cool. Nice to hear word is spreading! Take care. Brian.
This sounds like a wonderful experience especially for production companies who are well able to cover the budget to shoot a film, it is something we can do, i do hope we steeming will be motivated to try and possibly come together to create more opportunities especially for those who take out their time and resources to shoot a film for the Steemit community
Agreed. And we will wish to stay in the Steemit ecosystem engaging Steemians whenever we can.
This sounds exciting! I'm not in the film world, apart from hanging out with a number of local actors, but I'm really curious about this and will follow you guys. Good luck!
Terrific! I hope we will be doing creative enough work to keep your interest. Thanks.
What a great initiative... keep up the good work.

This is awesome. I have several short film treatments jotted down. This is the motivation i need to pull them back out. Thanks
Please do! I'd love to read them. Treatments are good but it all starts with a logline! If that doesn't mean anything, this might help...
http://noamkroll.com/an-easy-guide-to-writing-the-perfect-logine-why-its-as-important-as-your-screenplay/
Good luck
This looks cool, cant wait to watch the first steem film :D
Us too! Ha!
I am looking for someone who can write my life story and added imaginations into a screenplay without it costing me a sent. It is a story of being abducted by satanic film makers and giving birth to a nephilim. So I can make a suggestion. I can write a event outline for steemit and then if you selects it, we write a competition for a screenplaywriter. Not all things I will write is true story. I added a few illusions due to the narcotics that the satanists put me on. So my life story or souls story is actually one hell of a ride. I mean sex with angels, common. But hell did that to me. It is also a story of how God transformed me from marterdom to being a benifitworker to society. So there is victory after the fall.
I'd love to know how these people disclosed to you that they were Satanists
They invited me to a barbeque. There they grabbed me arouind my mouth from the back and screamed kill the sacrifice. So I concluded that they are satanic.
This is so cool, really looking foreward to this.
Thanks. Brian
Great work and awesome post! FULL STEEM AHEAD
Absolutely! Brian
Great initiative and thanks for getting this started!
Now the heavy lifting begins. But it's fun work! And again, thanks for your encouragement!
If you need content I've created a short story that I believe is interesting enough to be made into a film, just tell me where to send it.
Before you do, take a stab at a logline and send it along as well. Everything starts with a logline. Here's a link on how to structure one.
http://noamkroll.com/an-easy-guide-to-writing-the-perfect-logine-why-its-as-important-as-your-screenplay/
Then send them to me at c-br@live.com Looking forward to reading it.
This project is something that really shows how global community can be utilized. With power of Internet and new technologies like Steem something that would perhaps just be heard in one niche now echoes throughout world. Wish you luck.
Thank you. The goal is a lofty one - to make SteemFilm a internationally recognized brand - so it will be a challenge for sure!
Congratulations! A link to your post was included in the Steem.center wiki page Steem Ecosystem:S-Z. Thanks and good luck again!
Thanks. Much appreciated! Brian
That's interesting, welcome @steemfilm
Thanks. Brian
This is so awesome to see a production company on the Steem blockchain. @brian-rhodes it appears when you feel something should happen, you make it happen....that is a great character to have within yourself. Best of luck to all involved. @dan-atstarlite I will follow you as well...wishing you the best with this
Wow! I'm flattered! Unfortunately, my friends say I'm stupid stubborn so I like the way you put it better! Ha! Thanks. Brian.
lol...I complimented out of knowing myself how that drive of stubbornness is lol. But its great quality to have. You wouldn't have had the talents you possess or worked with the people you have without some stubbornness and drive. I am the same way, you get me on a goal I see nothing in the blinders lol
Really glad to see you got this going, and its great to see how much you believe in Steemit like many of us. Its an honor to have you with us always
Awesome to see this post. I have couple of ideas triggered in my mind after reading this, Will share with you guys later.
Thanks
@shawshank
Please do. Try to put the idea into a logline. Please click on the following link. Everything starts with a logline.
http://noamkroll.com/an-easy-guide-to-writing-the-perfect-logline-why-its-as-important-as-your-screenplay/
Then email to me at c-br@live com. I'd love to give it a read! Brian.
Hey guys, this is an excellent initiative. A writer for the screen myself, I can only hope you pull this off :-)
We'll give it our all! Also, keep in mind we're priming the pump with the screenplay I've written since we have a handle on what's needed to make it work. But we are looking for loglines and screenplay submissions for those films following. So please, register your screenplay with the guild, then email a copy. I'd love to read it. c-br@live.com. I wait with anticipation! Brian
Where would this production company be based? Not sure if I completely understand :)
Resteeming so filmakers that follow me see it. Thank you for doing this:)
Cool. Brian
wow :) what an idea :) i am so glad to see someone really going to these lengths for the community. thumbs up :)
Thanks. Brian
As a former background extra, AD, and newbie film maker, I'm very excited for this. I actually just signed up for Steemit with the purpose of connecting to the Steem community but also to raise funds through my blog posts to begin filming a documentary on the empowerment of women. I became interested in film after working on several film sets as a background extra, stand-in, and AD with popular shows like Vikings and Reign. So I'm very eager to read your future posts, especially tips from industry professionals. Thanks for putting this together.
Fantastic! Anything I can do to help and encourage you, please reach out!
Really great idea! I'm going to give a few logo ideas a shot. Looking forward to more contests too, especially screenwriting ones!
Cool. The Logo contest will be released this week.
just what Steemit needs, fantastic!
Cool.
This seems like an interesting project. This is just the start. I think this will help countries like India, where inspite of having a big film industry( money wise), there is almost no good movie coming out. It's complete cultural monopoly over here. And there is no separate music industry here too. Music industry is also controlled by Bollywood and the likes whose only motive is to make money.
We reached out to a filmmaker in Bombay. We need to know more to understand what options exist there. But it is on our radar. Take care.
Yeah sure. Do your research and keep updating. All the best
What a cool idea. Welcome! I'm brand new as well. a singer-songwriter. I'd love to have a way to connect with videographers, but am just glad to see other great artists here. Gonna follow you guys to keep on top of what you're doing.
All the best! Xx, Kay
Thanks Kay. Music will be a big part of SteemFilm. @dan-atstarlite is and has written the music for the first film we're producing for example - 'Better Left Unsaid'. Stay tuned. Brian
Thanks for your response and suggestion. If you've got half a second to take a look, I have a few videos up. Not great quality (hence, the need to connect with videographers!), but people have been responding really well, so it feels foolish not to mention to someone who may at some point have an interest in my work. Always happy to consider collaborations with other serious writers and artists, so I do hope that isn't untoward of me! I know I'm just a "little guy," but Steem is so hopeful for those of us who are small. Happy Sunday and all the best. xx
A big warm Steemit welcome goes out to you Steemfilm! :-D
Upvoted and High Paw.
That's very nice of you! Thanks. Brian
You're welcome Brian. :-D
So glad to know this! What about a short film on steemfest2? I think there will a lot of actors/actrees talent from all steemians.
Very interesting, Really great idea, can't wait to see how this @steemfilm project rolls out and develops.
Good luck for the project @brian-rhodes, @steemfilm and @dan-atstarlite! It'S very exciting to follow your progress, that comes out to be a great project and a great support for the steemit community!
Hey there! Angelenos? I'm looking for Angelenos!
