1 hour left. We are not there yet. White Wolf is 100% filmed, the rough first draft is underway, and this is the final push. Thank you to everyone who came along for the ride — this film is getting made no matter what. #WhiteWolf #Kickstarter #IndieFilm #SupportIndieFilm #AIFilmmaking

Only 3 hours left to back White Wolf on Kickstarter. This is the final chance. The film is 100% filmed, the rough first draft is underway, and your pledge still matters. #whitewolf #kickstarter #indiefilm #supportindiefilm #ActionThriller #AIFilmmaking

I like weird films and directors, and Jim Jarmusch is definitely one of them.
Coffee and Cigarettes is one of those—just people talking about nothing and everything at the same time.

Today I watched Only Lovers Left Alive. The soundtrack, the cinematography, the atmosphere... it's one of those films where the mood is just as important as the story. Beautiful from beginning to end.

Filmmaking isn’t about talent. It’s about persistence. Plenty of talented filmmakers quit. The persistent ones keep making movies.

Fun fact: The average Hollywood film marketing budget is 2X the production budget. That means if a movie costs $100M to make, studios spend $200M to sell it. Could you do more with less?

Major studios make most of their money from merchandising, not ticket sales. That’s why Disney keeps making Star Wars.

Me: I just need $50K to make my movie.
Also me: Spends $7K on a new camera.

Biggest indie film gamble? Kevin Smith put his entire $27K life savings into making Clerks. It grossed over $3 million. Not bad for a film shot in a convenience store after hours. Would you bet your life savings on a film?

Your script isn’t too ‘ambitious.’ You just haven’t figured out how to make it work with the resources you have.

A year ago today we filmed "Things We Do For Love" with Sarah Lidstone, Josh Alexander and Molly Jackson. It was a lot of fun, shot in half-a-day and brings a little fun to a debate that still rages to this day.

Most indie filmmakers I meet are insanely talented—but they fail because they don’t know how to sell their film. Distribution is a business, not an art. Who’s learning how to market their movie?

If your indie film takes 5+ years to finish, it’s not a passion project. It’s a procrastination project.

‘Filmmaking is not about equipment. It’s about story. A great filmmaker can make a masterpiece on a phone.’ – Robert Rodriguez"

No one cares about your 120-page masterpiece. If you can’t pitch it in one sentence, it won’t sell.

Most indie filmmakers spend $0 on marketing. That’s why most indie films make $0 back. What’s the best low-cost way to promote a film?

Film investors don’t fund movies. They fund money-making machines. If you can’t prove how your film will make them money, they won’t invest. Period.

Agree or disagree? Let’s argue in the comments.

Your first film isn’t going to be your masterpiece. It’s going to be your learning experience.

The biggest lie filmmakers believe: 'If my film is good, it will find an audience.' Nope. Without marketing, your masterpiece is just a really expensive secret.

#LoveLiesBleeding startet wie Fargo mit heißer Liebe zweier starker Frauen zwischen Anabolika und toxischen Männern in ihrem Umfeld - um dann als weniger reizvolle Mixtur aus Thelma & Louise und Marvels She-Hulk enttäuschend zu enden.
