IFH 092: Why Having No Money Makes You a Better Filmmaker

IFH 092: Why Having No Money Makes You a Better Filmmaker

What is this guy talking about? No money = better filmmaker? He must be nuts. We'll I'll have to disagree with you. As I am going through my adventure on the making of my first feature film THIS IS MEG, I have discovered that is the truth. Having less resources has made me a better filmmaker.
When you have no money and limited resources you discover new and creative ways to solve problems. The creative ways end up on the screen and that is where innovation comes from. Doing something people say is nuts.

"No one can stop you from doing exactly what you want to do. If you can accept that the cavalry won't come, and if you can be the cavalry, it gives you a chance to be happy." - Mark Duplass

When I announced I was going to direct This is Meg with a micro budget I can't tell you how many people said I was nuts. BTW, I love it when people do that, it lights my fire. I still think most of the cast and crew still don't know how we're going to pull this off.
In this podcast I go over the techinques I used to not only get the ball rolling but also get the film shot and edited. Enjoy!
