Callout: I'm looking for horror or thriller film projects that are either set mostly in India, or across UK and India. Details in the thread below, please only respond if you meet all the criteria. Please RT.
Genre: Must be either horror or thriller and easily identifiable as such. Not looking for cross-genre projects. Think Blumhouse tone and style. Not looking for dramas disguised as horror/thriller!
Setting: Needs to fit into a UK-Indian co-pro structure, so ideally set either mainly in India or between UK and India. Preferably not majority UK-set.

Random thread of Thoughts on Cannes this year:
1/ First year back here since before COVID and seemed busy if a little more muted than it was. Parties and drinks all felt more restrained (not a bad thing).
2/ Haven't heard of any major deals being struck (many seem to have been done pre-festival) but the sales agents I spoke to said that there was decent business being done, if not spectacular. Seemed to be a good showing from indie distrib buyers.
3/ Some concern over potential SAG strike and how that may affect other markets. Some producers considering moving production schedules back, but no outright panic.

Went down an AI rabbit-hole this week. In under 30 mins, I had an AI create an original idea for a film, write a treatment, suggest a cast list, build a basic pitch deck and create a poster image. Now...
...whilst all of this was fairly basic, it was impressive that it managed to identify the key things needed in each and if I'd been sent these by a person, I'd have had no idea that it was all created via AI.
On the one hand, this is scary as hell. The number of jobs this type of AI will end up replacing is too numerous to count. I have really mixed feelings about applying this to the film and TV industries but it's clear that it's here and we'll start seeing it in use within a year.

I’ve met many filmmakers who over the years have told me “they don’t care about the money” and “you focus too much on the business side of things”. There’s a reason for that. Without a viable system of financing and revenues, you won’t get paid. You won’t do this for a living.
The news about Cineworld is devastating and will likely be followed by more chains. It’s not Bond’s fault. It’s not the studios fault. It’s not the general public’s fault. This pandemic has already decimated the aviation and travel industries. It’s just another casualty.
We live in a world where there is now so much audio-visual content that it’s become hard to justify the cost of going to a cinema anyway. Younger audiences are happy enough to watch 2 hours of free tik tok videos rather than £15 to go watch a film in cinemas.

It’s basic economics. If there’s no product to sell, the business isn’t viable. There’s no way government grants will keep cinemas afloat until Easter. We’re seeing a sea-change in the film business, as models adapt to direct to digital.
It will mean lower budgets as there won’t be the revenues to prop up $200m films. Could also mean digital platforms commission films as opposed to licensing them.
It won’t be the end of cinema, art-house will still be a viable business and perhaps in a few years, after the pandemic, there will be a desire to reopen larger cinemas, but for the immediate future, film won’t be primarily for theatrical.
