Just when I had myself psyched to try pushing out a feature in half an hour, the game decides for the 1st time since I started playing to not have that as an option. I guess I will try it tomorrow. I expect I will fail at it the first attempt as I don't have a huge amount of diamonds to insta-complete my way through it. It will give me an idea though how many I will need along with skipping scenes and just trying to use time wisely.

Any advise or suggestions on this endevour are welcome.

All the films are easy to finish in time unless you forget about them. Just choose one that gives best reward, unless you wanna go for xp and have the time you can go for 3 hour one. The time should not be problems and diamonds are not needed

Oh ok, lol. I guess that would mean they require less points. The 2 hour films need 1400.

If you spend all your film energies at once and don't let them go to 30 you will have enough time to finish the movie before the time runs up. A 30 minute movie usually in 10 or 15 minutes, a 1 hour usually 35-40 minutes, the 1hour and 30 minutes movies usually needs 1 hour, the 2h movie needs 1:30-1:40 

So you will have finished the movie before supposed time if u don't forget about it.

One more advice the skill missions are the ones wich give more points,with what i know the hard fighting missions gives more points than easy skill mision but less than the medium one.

I concur.  I find I can complete any film within its original time slot requirement just by coming back to the Film Studio every 30 minutes (regardless of film length) and using all my film points on nothing but Skill Missions regardless of attribute assigned to that particular Film Shoot and regardless of the difficulty setting assigned to each Skill Mission.

 

For me, Skill Missions fail about 10%-20% of the time, (whereas Fighting Missions set on Difficulty HARD fail 50% of the time or more for me), and with the reward being greater for Difficulty HARD Skill Missions, this makes Skill Missions my default choice for producing films quickly and consistently.

 

Try it out for yourself and see if works for you.

PS: Because it is too your advantage to make all movies 3-Star films, leave some notes in reserve. If you fail to come back to the film and time runs out, resist the urge to immediately click on the Film Studio (camera icon) even when it is Flashing!  Instead wait at least 30 minutes before clicking on the Film Studio (Camera) icon. This will build up a bank of 30 minutes you can use right away in addition to the extra 30 minutes of time you get when you click on the "Extend my Session Time".  I also recommend paying for the extended time using notes, rather than diamonds as they are more freely available in the game.

Eileen,

 

At the moment, there are 5 lengths of film shoots ranging from 30 minutes to 2 hours and 30 minutes; 0:30, 1:00, 1:30, 2:00, and 2:30.  When presented with the initial choices for each film shoot, if you don't like what you see, you can refresh them (but it will cost you some diamonds, which I don't recommend spending as I typically go for one of the original 3 with the best set of prizes; skill points, items, or fans), but the option is there.

I finally had the 30 minute film come up again this morning without refreshing and got 2 of them in the offers. As you all have said, it was no trouble. I feel a little foolish for worrying about it. But I guess the post saves someone else having to ask. Points required for 30 minute film are 500. 90 is 1200. 120 is 1400. i would guess a 60 is 1000 even.

Haven't had the 180 pop yet. I am wondering who in the world needs a porno this long, lol. That's like a mini series. It would take me 2 weeks to watch it all.

 

Thank you everyone for the input. Much appreciated.
