My exact same thoughts.

@@MrRussel wow this Is life changing

Wow, I had no idea . Really wants to give folks a second thought as to whether or not they want to bother with Netflix. 👍

Yeah! As if the interviewer was us!

I think its because she really wanted to know for herself too. Almost all the time interviewers are told to interview someone.

@@XFactorDN im not sure that was Totally the case.

For real!

Can i buy books to them??

I mean sell

awefull , rather Call me

@@contactsan12 is awefull a good thing?... As opposed to awful

@@xianthegaian4060 pissed off with the video 🎥 what nonsense, who gives chance and why would,

@ozayevable Proves your English is poor , where are you from ?? you don't understand the context and my reply , tell me your language will translate and put it for you

@ozayevable 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Thanks Jonathan. We are glad you found this one. We are still in the process of working on this interview but in its entirety it is packed with information. The best is yet to come.

But those things make life fun!

Have used the "clip" feature for the first time and shared on social media. Great channel with great content, and I love the honesty.

😂

“One person in an office somewhere to say yes in order to get a breakthrough” LOVE THIS ☺️🙏🏾✨

We appreciate the support. We think this video with Jeff is great, but not his best one. Keep an eye out for a video in the future where he talks about pitching investors. You'll definitely want to check that one out.

I agree, people hate when you can't or won't get to the point and basically just ramble through an interview.

lol fr

Yeah I agree, yet don't you think that now this is out there the other party will be swarmed with people who have watched this clip tried to do harder, and that they won't find ways to dodge us once and for all. (In part understandably)

Sending you our best Kelvin. Thanks for watching.

Hey I’m interested in checking out more Nigerian films, what are your recommendations of some of the best?

It depends on what kind of movies you like...genre/niche

Can we linkup boss ...am in Lagos and i wanna venture ......

Watching the interview from Nigeria. Thank you for sharing this, shot my debut feature project some months back! i have slid back and forth from depression to mental breakdown! Filmmaking is really tough! i can say but i’m grateful for the opportunity to be a filmmaker.

Glad this one found you Kyle, thanks for watching.

The competition is extreme out there. For every movie a person has there is a hundred more movies out there to pick from. I used to investment entertainment and all I ever did was listen to project pitches. It ended up using up most of my time. And every person I use to have a meeting with was really motivated and wanting to succeed.

Great to hear DiMario. Thanks for watching. We have a lot more with Jeff to share.

fr

You write

Cheers Lynda. We have another great one with Jeff going up at 5pm PST tonight. Keep an eye out.

@@filmcourage 👍

Thanks for watching. Best is yet to come.

that's a wild guess.

When he finally got them to agree on the 3rd film, he had to deliver the film in 18 languages -- 25 versions of the film. I think it had more to do with Netflix not trusting that he could do all that on his own.

They probably have to do a credit search, insurance check, set up new accounts payable etc. Not a simple process and more risk

Thanks Akash. That's what we try to do.

Jeff is excellent. Happy you found helpful information here!

Thank you for your kind words. We love this segment with Jeff and we have another one coming this Tuesday at 5pm PST entitled, 'Why No One Wants To Invest In Your Movie.' We highly recommend checking that one out.

@@filmcourage I absolutely will check it out!!!

True.

I found it on Google in like 6 seconds of searching.

@@AdamBrianDada which according to him you'd be actually pitching your story twice.

Thank you!

Great to see you finding value here. We are just scratching the surface of Jeff's interview. When it is all said and done this will be a great masterclass / resource for filmmakers.

Google believes in you...

Hahahahahaha

I'd be very interested in the specific role of a distributor and the factors that differentiate such dealings from representation by an agent, including any likely fees or other expense involved, as well as contractual arrangements and payments involved in sale. It would also be super useful to note if the distributors themselves have a policy on unsolicited and unrepresented manuscripts.

@@mothratemporalradio517 Tgat probably Won't be an easy task as each distributor is human therfore is subject to their personal opinion, choice and decision.

@@Ghostfanofurs it was uber specific, wasn't it. I clarify that i assumed distributors were most likely companies rather than individuals. I had "shower thoughts" about this (well, if i'm to be completely honest, they were toilet thoughts, but i digress) and decided that even if you are right about the range of variables, it might be possible to establish certain parameters. For example, let's use an ordinary wage paid per hours as an example of variability. Obviously, there are loads of different industries, roles, and level of position in terms of experience and so forth. Very difficult to make sweeping generalisations ranging from unpaid work.experience to billionaires. However, for example, we could say for one thing that by definition, waged work is for a wage. Therefore we could point to positions that don't include this and classify those by way of comparison. For example, volunteer work and unpaid work experience, which aren't necessarily the same thing. The next factor might be whether there are any legal minimums for paid wages (and whether some employers pay under the table). This might extend to whether there is any unionised position on minimum rates of pay, and whether or not that is enforceable, and so on. In this sense, we could say that a person is most likely to be paid a wage of at least $1 an hour to distinguish them from volunteers or unpaid interns. Then in some situations we could observe if there is a legal minimum, and/or otherwise a minimum established by a union. So that might take us to $8 or $16 or $2000 an hour, depending on the poaition even before contemplation of any negotiation. So even though rates could differ by hundreds of thousands over the course of a year, it might be possible to establish a sense of the relevant parameters for a particular role. Perhaps in the same way there may be certain knowable parameters to be aware of and keep in mind if negotiating a deal about distribution. As an obvious example, if someone wants paid work and the negotiated arrangement was that they work for free, this would fall outside of the lowest parameter for a wage. I know absolutely nothing about distribution so it's hard for me to guess at any parameter, and i'm hoping that even with variables, there might be some useful information. Among that, it might be useful to know more from the distributor's point of view about the likes of realistic time and costs. Hope that makes sense, thanks for your input.

Same

you get MORE of what you focus on regardless the show must go on

Thanks C J, hope you found some value here.

What does "delivery" mean

@@quantemor4206 The film plus the truck loads of supporting legal documents.

Hey dude i see you are experienced in this field, i have a great idea for a film, can you point me in which direction i should go next?

@@rebellion7463 I wish I knew? 10, 000 roads up the mountain, and no one knows which one is best?

We are glad this one found you Shelly!

You have to continue doing it dear. You have any friends who can read your stuff? Tell you what they think? You can start there..

You may enjoy this one as well - kzfaq.info/get/bejne/fJdjaqxys77Fdmg.html

Thanks Ashley, we are still just scratching the surface on this interview. When it is all said and done we think this one is over 3 hours. Here is everything we have published so far which is about 1 hour all together - bit.ly/345tWm3

I want to know this same thing
