: Hi,
: My business partner and I wrap shooting on our first feature tomorrow. We already have a distributor interested for a direct to video release. There is a sound track deal in the works.
: Although this is my first feature (and my parter's second) we were just fortunate enough to get the cash to get the thing made. (Less than 50 grand.) DOES IT EVER GET ANY EASIER FINDING THE INVESTORS??? I always read about Scorsese grumbling about investors, but we're purposely staying modest and practical just so we can give up our shitty day jobs.
: Can anyone help shed some light on this most frustrating part of filmmaking?
i'm hoping to soon be in your situation.i'm working on a screenplay right now,but have no idea about what is supposed to follow.who do i take it to?can i,should i just do it myself?,how did you guys get started?i am bored with life,and i want to dump my shitty day job too!
