The promise of a movie: When putting together your movie, it’s important to understand the audience expectations. Expectations, however, are different from cliche and convention. You should not be trying to copy a genre’s story or events, or be predictable so there’s nothing new about the movie you are sharing, but you want to be aware of what the audience will expect. A horror movie? Audiences expect to be scared and to have some level of anxiety watching it. An action film? Audiences expect action that has consequences (life or death). Spy thriller? Audiences expect some kind of intrigue and geopolitical consequences. Romantic comedy? Audiences expect tension between the leads that will be resolved. Christmas/seasonal movies? Audiences expect a reconciliation centered around the theme of the holiday. Whatever the expectation, the audience also expects and hopes to see something new. That’s what happens when an audience leaves the theater surprised and delighted. It’s because the movie met and exceeded their expectations. You can, and should strive to, blast through the expectations in unique and surprising ways. That’s what can make your movie stand out. But your audience will come to see the movie expecting to be treated to a certain experience, and in that mission, you want to over deliver on the expectation in a way they they might not have anticipated. This is the expectation we are setting for our spy movie, The Quiet Canadians. Follow along to see how we put the movie together and you’ll be even more excited when you get to see it in the theater!

What witnessing this project has taught me is that when you can identify an audience's core needs and pain points, and then craft a solution that resonates with them on an emotional level, that's when you see campaigns take off in a big way.

Good decisions don't make for good cinema. Poor quality decisions lead to drama, plot twists, and comedy. With that, "Decision Reactions", The Decision-Making Studio's regular series in which we watch videos of decisions and break them down using our FOCUS framework, is back! The goal is simple: to get people thinking and talking about what goes into good decisions, and when to spot poor ones. Episode 3 is called "15,000 Cars" which is from the 1980s Ron Howard film "Gung Ho" which stars Michael Keaton. The film is about a down-on-its-luck Pennsylvania factory town that welcomes a Japanese car company. It is filled with poor decisions and we examine one of them here. Enjoy! And you can get in touch to get a copy of our primer on our FOCUS decision-making principles here: https://lnkd.in/eUiGgRB4 #decisionmaking

Life is not a Journey... It is a series of mini-series adventures - some are dramas, some are adventures, and others comedies and tragedies. In each mini-series we write the screenplay, choose the location, star in our chosen role, and choose our co-stars and the full cast and crew... If you don't like the mini-series you are in - change something and start a new script... We chose to make ours a chain of adventures, yes there's drama, comedy, and tragedy included but we stay on the script as much as possible. What is your life story...?

Well Alright, It's Friday and I have not posted since "updating" my profile. So lets wrap this week up with a question. As a 38+ year veteran of Film & Television I have worked on countless productions, from Drama to Comedy, Sci-fi, to Murder Mystery and more. I have a lot of favorites, I enjoy comedy's, love some good Sci-fi too. Here's some favorite's I have worked on. 1) "Elf" - Amazing cast as I am sure you can imagine 2) "Chronicles of Riddick" - Shot entirely on stage, was cool to see how it all came together. 3) "Jumanji" - Again such a great cast, had the pleasure of working with Robin Williams a few times. 4) "Who's Harry Crumb" - It was just so much fun! 5) "Santa Clause 2" - Well, because I just love Christmas. Now here's the Friday question: What is a movie you would recommend?

Stree 2: Sarkate Ka Aatank || BRIEFLY DESCRIBE Stree 2: A Haunting Return to Chanderi The town of Chanderi is haunted once again by the enigmatic and vengeful spirit known as "Stree," in the much-anticipated sequel to the hit horror-comedy Stree. With its unique blend of supernatural horror and dark comedy, Stree 2 picks up where the original film left off, delivering both chills and laughter in equal measure. PLEASE DOWNLOAD FULL HD MOVIE.👇 http://up-4.net/d/vXFB The Return of Stree. Following the events of the first movie, Chanderi had been left in an uneasy calm. The legend of Stree, a powerful female spirit who would abduct men during the four days of a festival dedicated to her, had been passed down through generations, instilling fear in the hearts of the townsfolk. However, the people of Chanderi had found some relief after Vicky (Rajkummar Rao), along with his friends Bittu (Aparshakti Khurana) and Jana (Abhishek Banerjee), had seemingly managed to defeat Stree by following the cryptic clues given to them by a mysterious woman (Shraddha Kapoor). The first film left viewers with an intriguing mystery. The woman, who had helped Vicky and his friends defeat Stree, was never fully explained. By the end of Stree, she vanished, leaving behind an unanswered question: was she connected to Stree herself? What were her motives? As Stree 2 begins, these questions loom large over the town of Chanderi, where life has returned to a semblance of normalcy. New Threats Emerge. In Stree 2, the story takes a darker turn. The spirit of Stree is still present, but this time, she seems to have grown stronger and more aggressive. Where once she only abducted men during the festival, her reign of terror now spans the entire year. Men across Chanderi live in constant fear, avoiding dark alleys and staying indoors at night. As the hauntings intensify, Vicky, who has now become something of a local hero, is called upon once again to protect the town. He is joined by his old friends Bittu and Jana, who are still recovering from the traumatic events of the first film. Together, they realize that the rituals and practices that once kept Stree at bay are no longer effective. A series of strange and disturbing events ensue, leading them to suspect that Stree might not be acting alone this time. There are whispers of a second spirit, perhaps even more dangerous than Stree, and the trio begins to investigate. The Mysterious Woman's Return. One of the central mysteries of Stree 2 is the reappearance of the woman who had helped Vicky in the first film. Played once again by Shraddha Kapoor, this character seems to have deeper knowledge of Stree than anyone else. Her sudden return to Chanderi raises more questions than it answers, and Vicky finds himself torn between trusting her and suspecting that she might be linked to the resurgence of Stree’s powers.
