So how does one go about getting a Movie/T.V. Show, etc. private screen print commission started? I've asked numerous artists with no responses,and lately have seen some great private pieces made. Just curious.

first off no artist is going to want to do a commission based upon an email from someone who is asking how they work

1) email lesser known artist and tell them what ya want them to draw
2) agree on a price
3) go on fb and find a buncha EBers to pay for it
4) wait forever and stall stall stall
5) find a printer once the art is done
6) wait forever and stall stall stall
7) once the posters are printed ship em to the EBers making sure ya keep a stack of free APs
8 )?
9) profit

Maybe start by offering the artist an overpriced Mondo piece to whet their appetite...

I would say the best thing would be to contact Theo, but unfortunately he was banned.
