10 Tricks And Traps Of Film Producing Film producing is an occupation fraught with danger, mishaps and misfortune. As Shakespeare said: many a slip twixt cup and lip. Here are the ten areas where new producers trip up. 1. Measure Success by More Than a Theatrical Release The times are a-changin’. The innovative British writer-director Mike Figgis has been campaigning for an alternative distribution strategy since 1999. Of course online distribution on websites like Netflix, Lovefilm and Blinkbox offer ways filmmakers can find audiences. 2. New producers treat agents poorly. Before you approach any agent, find out who they represent and what sort of material they need from you to secure their clients. Remember that when you approach an agent with a minimal budget, they are working for you for free and need to see what other benefits you can bring. 3. Presales are a thing of the past and are virtually impossible to secure for a new producer without a proven delivery record. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. The screenplay is everything.

New Music Video By Pop-Rockers Don Broco Is A Quirky Sensation Don Broco are by no means newcomers to the world of music, but the English rockers who formed in 2008 have only just started breaking into the collective conscience of the music scene. After their 2015 album ‘Automatic’ reached number 6 on the UK charts and having supported 5 Seconds Of Summer and Bring Me The Horizon, Don Broco have kept the momentum going with their newest single Everybody. Everybody features a sound familiar to most alternative rock fans; with a catchy beat, jumping electric guitar riffs, and a sing-along chorus.

Raw Power’s Craig Jennings and Matt Ash on U.S. Expansion, Growing Business in the Face of Falling Sales Formed in 2006 by music industry veteran Craig Jennings alongside Iron Maiden’s long-term manager Rod Smallwood and fellow Sanctuary Group founder Andy Taylor, U.K.-based management company Raw Power Management has enjoyed a bumper few years. In February, California metalcore quintet Of Mice and Men scored their highest ever entry on the Billboard 200 chart when Restoring Force (Rise Records) entered at No. 4. Another of its acts, British metalcore act Bring Me the Horizon has sold over 300,000 copies worldwide of its acclaimed 2013 studio set Sempiternal (RCA/Epitaph), which won album of the year at the inaugural Alternative Press Music Awards this summer. In summer 2011, Raw Power opened its first U.S. office, located in Los Angeles and headed by Matt Ash, former international marketing director of Atticus Clothing. As a U.K. Craig Jennings: We were finding that when we met U.S. acts the fact that we didn’t have anybody on the ground [in North America] was a real stumbling block.
Alterock | DON BROCO Release Single + Video ‘Everybody’, Create Their Signiture Zombie Dance July 18, 2016 If we had to choose this year’s winners in the category “Wierdest Music Video 2016”, Don Broco would 100% take home the award thanks to their video for the brand new single ‘Everybody’. Watch it below. Imaginative alt-rockers from Bedford, England have outdone themselves with the new clip. From the very first seconds of the clip, the story is gripping (or lasso-gripping, if you want), as we see an old cowboy with a lasso chasing a screaming woman down the field. The police knocks on the cowboy’s door as they are seeking the lost woman – and guess what happens next! Don Broco recently inked a deal with Sharptone Records, so the band’s fans were expecting new tunes from the group. The band will hit the road with Massmatiks this week and, interestingly, will perform at each venue twice, delivering their debut album, Priorities, in full on the first night and the latest record, Automatic, on the second one.
Salem Methodist – Oconee - Historic Rural Churches of Georgia Photography courtesy of Scott MacInnis Villages come and villages go, often leaving the church as the only thing left of what was once a vibrant community. Salem is a perfect example of this…….a noble church in a lovely rural location, surrounded by the graves of her past congregations. Old Salem was organized in 1820, shortly after the town of Salem was incorporated in November of 1818, and settled by mostly Scots Irish who migrated from Virginia and North Carolina. Salem’s economy was almost exclusively agriculture, and in the years prior to the Civil War this meant raising cotton under the plantation system requiring large numbers of slaves. We are fortunate that the church has been well cared for. For church location and directions click here.
Wilson’s Chapel – Jackson - Historic Rural Churches of Georgia Photography courtesy of Scott MacInnis The image of this sweet little church in the rural Georgia countryside is moving. The winding dirt road that skirts the cemetery leads your eye to the sanctuary nestled in the trees. The road and the random placement of headstones in the foreground is balanced with the ramrod straight rails supported by the cross ties and gravel bed. And to top it off, there is a train coming. The early history of Wilson’s Chapel is not clear but the year 1814 has come down as the date of the original organization. As the rural landscape changed in Georgia, so did the church, and the membership was barely keeping the doors open in the 1930’s. Thank you for supporting Historic Rural Churches of Georgia and helping us spread the word. For church location and directions click here.
