The featured bosses will be decided on a later date when the community is up.


Mainstreet Featured Things:


Featured Film- Every so often a film can/will be nominated to be featured on mainstreet as a Featured Film. It won't be weekly/monthly or anything, just every so often and when the bosses can get around to it. The films will have to meet a certain criteria and be in a high quality. The bosses will look at the nominees and decide what should be featured and when. A screenshot of the film will be stilled on mainstreet along with the link to the uploaded film.
Bosses: (only two for now)
1.
2.

Featured Director- Like the Featured member here only it will most likely go to members who makes films and other members find them interesting. It can also go to members who are just on the site to love films and then it will work more like a featured member here. It's mainly for film makers though, but the occasional film fanatic can be nominated and honoured as a featured director.
> This can also go to screenplay writers/and normal members that are generally interesting!! The name Featured Director goes along with the movie theme so that is the name!
Bosses: (only two for now)
1.
2.

Featured Screenplay- This goes to someone who is obviously a writer and the overall genre would be screenplays. The bosses of this must be into loads of reading and much consideration. Once again the member must be nominated by another member and then the bosses must find some way to read it (most of it) and decide on what they like. A trustworthy literate boss would be the best for this. Once again this will be an every so often occurance and not every week. Preferably at least three times a month.
>This is also for writers of scripts, scenes, etc. (for more clarification)

For the Film Lovers:


Up-Coming Movies- This will be a little section on the mainstreet page (proabbaly were the contests are now) for up-coming movies! They will be movies coming to theatres in the near and distant future that the public might be generally interested in. It will be a list of wikis and when you click it you will be transported to a certain page with the information on the movies. It will be a simple wiki nothing huge like the superwikis and any member can make one and submit it to the 'Up-coming Movie' wiki (which will be on the mainstreet page, like the Contest Section on WC). The crew that runs that page will rotate which movies will be featured.

Film Discussions- These can take place on fan wikis, in private messages and in specific forums just like here.

Tutorials- These can be made by any member for other members and posted in a wiki for that purpose. There might be a main Tutorial page to store a bunch and maybe a badge like here. It won't be anything huge.

Uploading Films/Animations/Screenplays:


Uploading Screenplays- Because screenplays are so long and rather complicated they will be uploaded into superwikis like the ones on writersco. A button up at the top will read 'My Screenplays' or 'Screenplays' and by clicking that you will be taken to the superwiki. 'Screenplays' will probably take you to the whole list of uploaded screenplays by members.

Uploading Film/Animations- Short animations can be uploaded right to a wiki with a simple priv but we're going to try to see if there is a way to take the MusMakers superwikis and add a way to upload moving images as well as sound. At the top there will be a button reading 'Films/Animations' and that will take you to the already uploaded films. Another button on your house will read 'My Films' and that will take you to the necessary superwiki for films.

Some sort of E-zine:


Features: This e-zine of sorts will have features such as Movie Reviews, Celebrity Information, Recomended Movies, Up-coming movies, Hollywood news, etc. It will have information on anything that has to do with movies and the actors in the movies. Run by members themselves so other members can get in on what's going on in hollywood. This will have editors, writers, graphic artists, tech experts, etc. It will probably not be started until the community starts to get more crew and public members and then it will be in more consideration.
The idea would be to have people who work on it familiar with the pop idol news, not someone who doesn't know anything. Movie conessieurs are also welcome and can give in their say and feelings on certain movies. Also, for people from other countries they can really help out by adding their insight on the movies from their countries and their stars.

2006-02-02 [nokaredes]: I think there should be a featured writer part, too...no one ever seems to care about the writers, even though without them there are no other parts. They celebrate the actors, and directors...and it sort of gets on my nerves. -_-

2006-02-02 [Paz]: That's the screenplay part, Featured Screenplay:) It's writing a screenplay, script, etc.

2006-02-02 [nokaredes]: But you would be featuring the screenplay there, and not the writer themself, am I correct? You're not going to have a biography of the writer?

2006-02-02 [iippo]: Wel in all honesty, in a community like this, the person who makes the film is most likely to be the one to write it as well. But we could change "featured director" to featured moviemaker to include all aspects of movie making?

2006-02-03 [Paz]: Not all people make films but might prefer to just be a writer :) We can change it though (nothing is concrete as of yet)

2006-02-03 [Teufelsweib]: I can't do anything for up-coming movie, for the movies in Holland come 2 months later than the ones in America :P but I would love to do work for featured movie and director!

2006-02-03 [iippo]: As for the e-zine... Does anyone know what's going on with Herald? Because it would be massive cool if the Herald ould evolve to be the e-zine for all these Heddate sites; that way people in ET could find out what's going on in something like BaltBalt (since not that many people can join it, Russian not the easiest thing to learn >_>)

2006-02-03 [Paz]: I joined Balt-Balt and used a translator until it got to hard >.> (there should be a spanish community) Anyhoo, that would be a cool thing if it could be combined but I don't know if members here really want to have a huge section of the herald devoted to celebrities and movies :)

2006-02-03 [iippo]: The e-zine will be devoted for celebs and movies? What's the point? I mean... I assume none of the members actually are reporters or know any celebs, so the info would just come off of other resources... why? People can read imdb or magazines. Basically, what would the e-zine give that wouldn't be given in ten million other professional movie/celeb resources? o_O

2006-02-04 [LOLNERD.]: Actually, I know a celebrity. But the e-zine would update people on the news. Not everyone has the ability to listen to the radio or get subscriptions to People magazine. If they spend most of their time on the computer, it would give them a chance to hear (or read rather...) about what's new in celebreality (to quote VH1). Also, the e-zine could have a section where we post the movies that are currently playing. People could send in review of the movies they've seen to be published in the e-zine. What do the critics know anyways? Wouldn't you rather hear reviews from normal people?

2006-02-04 [LOLNERD.]: By the way, never assume. It makes an ass out of you and me.
