FAQ

A typical distribution deal will cost between $100,000-$150,000.
The average theater cost is about $10,000.
Screens cost on average around $5,000

Are foreign sales worth more to Hollywood than domestic?
Yes, but it is only slightly. Foreign revenues made up about 17% of total revenue in 2017. 83% of domestic revenues were generated in 2017.
Over half of the world’s population is found in overseas markets.
This means that people who may never have the chance to see a movie at home might still be curious about your movie.
What is the difference in an indie film and one made in a foreign language?
A single filmmaker usually makes an independent film. He or she makes all the decisions.
A foreign language film, on the other hand is usually produced by a larger production crew.
They often hire actors, authors, and directors who are from other countries.
They also hire professional translators so that the dialogue sounds natural.
How much do actors get paid?
For independent films, the average salary for an actor is less than $100,000. The average actor receives between $10,000 and $20,000 for a film. Many actors aren't paid. It depends on how successful an actor is. There are actors who make millions and others who struggle to find work.
Is Hollywood larger than Bollywood?
Producers face the greatest challenge of making sure their movie is seen by viewers.
There are so many movies out there competing for your time and money. It's hard to stand out among the rest and get noticed.
But what makes a movie great? What makes an actor famous or a director? Or a director? It's more than talent, it's also luck. Even if you have the most talented actors in the world they won't be able to make it work if they write bad scripts.
There are two types of films: independent productions and blockbuster movies with big budgets. Production and distribution of blockbuster movies costs hundreds of millions. They are typically made by huge studios who want to ensure that their movies reach a wide audience. But these big-budget films tend to appeal mainly to older audiences.
Independent films are generally smaller-scale productions that may be financed by individuals or groups of investors. These films are often targeted at niche markets and appeal to particular tastes. These films are usually easier to market and produce. But, they aren't necessarily cheaper to view. In fact, most indie films are very hard to find.
The question is whether we need both types. Do we need blockbuster movies, or smaller independent films? Hollywood is much bigger than Bollywood. Hollywood produces nearly twice as many movies annually as India.

How To
How to get an honor star on Hollywood Walk of Fame
In 1960, the Hollywood Chamber of Commerce created the Hollywood Walk of Fame (HWOF). The HWOF's Los Angeles location is at 6233 Hollywood Boulevard. It is made up of 2,711 stars that are embedded in the Hollywood Boulevard sidewalk. Each star represents a person who has contributed to television, radio, theatre, music, motion pictures, or any other aspect of popular culture. The HWOF currently lists 1,922 people.
To become a member of HWOF you will need to submit your name at the Hollywood Chamber of Commerce. This submits your name then to the City of Los Angeles Department of Cultural Affairs. Once you have been approved, you will be given a certificate that shows your name and details, including date of birth, place of residence, occupation, and category. You will also receive a bronze plaque engraved with your name. This plaque will be attached to a base of concrete in front the designated star.
If a member of the HWOF has nominated you, or if your contributions are significant to films, television, radio or theatre, or any other part of popular culture, you can apply for a Star. A committee reviews all the nominations before deciding whether or not they are approved. If they do approve them, they send a note to the home address of the applicant stating their decision. A second letter confirms acceptance if the nominee accepts the nomination. The Hollywood Chamber of commerce charges $25, and then the money is sent to the Department of Cultural Affairs of the City of Los Angles.
The department issues an official check payable to Hollywood Chamber of commerce. This check is then sent to the Hollywood Walk of Fame Foundation. The foundation pays any artist or organization that submitted an application. The artist or organization then pays the Hollywood Chamber of Commerce half the fee ($12.50). The City of Los Angeles Department of Cultural Affairs gets the rest.
Once an artist has received their star, he/she is eligible to be listed in the HWOF. You must pay the Hollywood Chamber of Commerce the balance due to be included on the HWOF. The amount due depends upon how many years ago your first nomination was. For example, $15,000. Suppose you were first nominated as a nominee in 1990. You would be responsible for $10,000 if you had been nominated previously in 1980.
Contact the Hollywood Chamber of Commerce to get your name removed from the HWOF and to repay any outstanding debts. They will remove your name from this list.
How old do you have to be in order to receive a star on HWOF?
When nominated, one must have at least 18-years-old. A person must be present at the time of receiving a star. After receiving a Star, one can still be Nominated for another star after ten Years.
What happens if I die before my star gets put up?
Nominating you can be done by family members. If there are no living relatives, then the Hollywood Chamber of Commerce will place a memorial marker in front of the star.
Why don't people just use a different street instead of having stars all over the place?
The HWOF isn't meant to be an historical monument. It is intended to honor all those who have made film history possible.
What happened to all the stars stolen? Around 1,200 stars were taken by the thieves. Each star weighs between 250-300 lbs, so if you add up all the weight, that comes out to about 4 tons worth of stars!
