Filmmaker's Dream Blog

IndyMogul was a staple resource for me in creating my films that required a little special effects for a much lower cost. They take a DIY filmmaking approach, so the things that seem you can't do, you quickly find a solution. Their tag, [Fun, Cheap, Filmmaking] I enjoy watching their Youtube videos and I must admit, their techniques are quite effective. It makes you really want to get into creating more films and going as far as you can without spending loads of money. Putting a film together can become very expensive very fast, so anything that helps towards cost is very beneficial to the producer.  They also have another site which is Beyond the Trailer. It gets the reviews from audiences of new films to find out just how good the new releases are. I enjoy the critiques, because it makes me think twice about spending all of that money for a snoozefest during a movie. Doing it yourself until you make the big screen is the way to go for aspiring filmmakers. I give this site many thumbs up!

     It's time for a review! Earlier I came across Filmmaking.Net, a website with resources for filmmakers. You can find books, film schools, events, festivals, and more. The layout is okay, not very eye catching or alluring, but it's there for the information! The site itself looks unfinished. I wish there was some more interaction to the site, or was a little more interesting for me to get into. Someone with strong marketing skills may be able to turn this site around. I do however respect the resources given, any information is better than none. Please visit www.filmmaking.net to find out more!
