You have to get an audience for your movie.
It's easy to make a movie with no money. But it does take time and work. A big bulk of your moviemaking will consist of you making an audience for your movie. As an indie filmmaker, you have to wear many hats. You have to be creative, while always thinking outside of the box to find ways of building an audience for your no budget or low budget or micro-budget movie.
Create a film blog for your No Budget movie. Film some short 2
to 3 minute episodes of you talking interview style to the camera
discussing your film. Make about 5-8 short interviews and create a
short video blog interview web series online promoting your film.
There's websites like Youtube and Blip TV that are free to join and
create a free web series. With each episode, you can have a link
attached to the site where people can go and buy your film. You never
know. Your web series could generate thousands, even millions of
views. Think about all those people that you're reaching who are
finding out about your film.
Make a Podcast. Along with Film V-Logs, podcasts are another
great way to share your film. A podcast is like a radio audio
broadcast; like a radio show. People make podcasts about all kinds of
subjects. You can too. Go to the internet and create a Podcast for
your film. Have one day a week that you do a radio show promoting
your film. It's a free and easy way to build an audience for your
project. And a lot of fun. You can get really creative with this.
These are just a couple of creative ways to help you with your
filmmaking journey to build an audience for your movie.
Make your movie.
