14 Film Festival Invitations...and Counting

The film festival invites keep coming. And the films keep screening.

Case in point: this month alone, I received invitations to 14 film festivals for films of mine that have played worldwide: 1 feature film, and 2 short films. When you have a movie that people want to see, it's easy to get it seen. Take it from me. I've been there. And done that. And continue to do that.

I believe the best person as a film festival consultant for a independent filmmaker is a real working independent filmmaker.

Making your movie is the easy part. Getting it out there for the world to see is a job in itself.

But it's easy to become a master of the film festival circuit.

The Short Film Market

The short film market can be difficult to master. But if you have the right mindset, knowledge and tools, you can become a well-known filmmaker around the world and be broke at the same time.

Take it from someone's who's been there and done that. Back in 2005, I was a 20 year veteran of stage and screen, but had yet to make my first movie. After living in L.A. for over 10 years, I said 'Fuck Hollywood. I'm going to go back home, and make my own movies, my way'. And now, six years later, and scores of several award winning short films that combined, have screened worldwide at over 300 film festivals, this true indie filmmaker has been through it all. Let me help you with your short film.
