You do not mention the cost of actually making the movie and paying the people who put the movie together.
A Movie cost a lot of money to make before you get to put it on a disk and send it out.
Also the majority of people will watch it free on youtube.
I cant trust you if you don’t put all the parts to the equation in your math.
This is a do over.
I will be waiting and watching.
Thanks.
So I should count him paying himself and his brother? I explain all of this on that page. He made the film himself, he didn't use a big production company or anything. It's not 1988 anymore, anyone with Windows Movie Maker or Adobe Premier can create a movie.
Keep on watching and waiting, because there's nothing to change.
OK than what do you think was the amount of time it took to make it? And
the cost of their time if paid to do it?
Did you contact him and his brother and ask him or are you just
guessing?
Do you make that type of movie all the time?
Come on dude let's be honest.
For people without the skills it would cost a boat load of $$$$
How much of your email did I already talk about on that page? Did you read the purpose of the page? No, you didn't. For the sake of my hate mail readers, let me explain this to you:
>> OK than what do you think was the amount of time it took to make it?
Probably a couple of weeks to a few months, depending on how much time was spent on it during free time.
>> the cost of their time if paid to do it?
Nobody paid him to do it, he's talked about this himself over and over, _he made the films himself_.
>> Did you contact him and his brother and ask him or are you just guessing?
Ask what? He created the film himself, he repeatedly says so, his brother has a history of film making.
>> Do you make that type of movie all the time?
No, I don't, but tons of people do. Ever been to YouTube or Google Video?
>> Come on dude let's be honest.
Yeah, and stop lying to yourself about the perfect, angelic motives Peter had for creating the film, oh no wait, he paid someone else to according to you, but not according to him.
>> For people without the skills it would cost a boat load of $$$$
Uh, no. Again, YouTube or Google Video is evidence enough that assumption is 100% wrong. I already mentioned the software to do it is readily available, it's also very easy to use. Again, it's not 1988 anymore, anyone -- you, me, anyone -- can make a video and upload it to the Internet. We're in the 21st century grandpa, you don't need specialists, grips, and so forth to make movies like Zeitgeist.
Why is it anyone who emails me pondering about the cost of the movie has the inability to even comprehend basic concepts and lacks critical thinking skills on any level?
