Ernesto,

I have to agree with Alti ...this needs to be moved to the non paid section.

You might consider providing details on who you are and your experience in film production as well as your success at raising money. You provide the details regarding what you want ...but nothing as to why anyone would or should volunteer their valuable time and skills for your project.

I am not questioning your sincerity or your passion for film, but many would read your ad and just dismiss it as not being very serious. Your websites for A.R.E. Movies and New Groove Order seem to lack the usual company biographies and background of those involved. Neither company name seems to be listed on IMDb either, so it is easy for a "high end artist" to make the assumption that you may lack the necessary experience to turn this "$10 to $70 million" project into a reality.

Perhaps you do have the qualifications, experience and the networking skills. I don't really know. I am just suggesting that you might have a better response if you presented yourself better to the community.

Best of luck.

Best of luck to you in procuring your investments. But please bear in mind that artists have to work for their food just like anybody else. You would not ask a car mechanic to fix your vehicle for free.

I wouldn't bother spending the money on a plane ticket if you can't scrape together money for a decent proposal package. At this stage the concept art sells the idea. I wouldn't dare ask someone to pony up 10-70 million dollars when I wasn't willing to spend a few hundred to a few thousand on art to show what the investor is investing in.
