Anyone can make a movie. You just have to make your movie.
I'm living proof.
As an underground independent filmmaker, I make movies. I make movies with no money. I make films that are real, eye-opening, and films that most people are afraid to make.
And there is an audience hungry for that type of filmmaking.
No budget underground filmmaking.
To date, my films have screened at over 400 film festivals worldwide since I first started making films back in 2006. Just in the last year, I've made several films: a feature film documentary about burlesque that has screened at over 45 film festivals since last summer, and taken top honors at film festivals in Los Angeles, Las Vegas, Kansas City, Seattle and Des Moines; 3 short films that have screened at over 30 film festivals over the last year; and now, a new short film that is having it's festival World Premiere this coming weekend in San Francisco.
And that one will explode on the festival circuit as well.
As an underground filmmaker, you don't make any money. But you can make films with no money. And have them screen around the world with no money. And build an audience hungry for your next movie with no money.
If you look at this as a business, and as a project to share your art with the world, there is no limit.
Make your movie.
