Hi filmmakers/filmlovers,
All you folks who have a Netflix account can do me a huge favor just by adding our movie, The Commune to your Netflix Queue. (If you don't have an account, you can pass this email on to your friends!)
As you may know, I recently completed my first feature film as
director/writer/producer, The Commune. http://thecommunemovie.com
We received a warm welcome with great reviews

As you may know, I recently completed my first feature film as
director/writer/producer, The Commune. http://thecommunemovie.com
We received a warm welcome with great reviews
and festival showings but we are now in the grinding process of self-distribution.
We have been selling DVDs on our website along with digital downloads through
IndieFlix www.indieflix.com/
<http://www.indieflix.com/
but this is a slow and piecemeal process.
We received some good news recently that Netflix will accept our movie
with one caveat: we have to prove that we have an audience that wants
to see this before they will order any DVDs from us. So, we need 130
people to save the DVD in their Queue and then they will accept us.
So far we have 90 people who have saved the DVD, so we just need 40
more.
Please follow this link:
http://www.netflix.com/
Click the Add to DVD Queue button and that's it! You don't even need
to watch the DVD (unless you want to), just by saving it to your Queue
you've demonstrated enough interest to Netflix, you'll be supporting
independent film, and you'll be doing a huge favor for me.
Thanks so much for you support!
(P.S. please feel free to forward this message to anyone else you know
who has a Netflix account)
EARNING BONUS POINTS If you've got 40 more seconds to help, please
1. rate our film
2. Mark the reviews as helpful
All appreciation,
Elisabeth Fies, director/writer/producer

The Fighting Sullivan
Michael Patrick Sullivan (notice how ALL shady types have three names? Lee Harvey Oswald. Henry Lee Lucas, John Wayne Gacy...et al. Hey, I'm just sayin'! Guy has a play called Mastermind coming out soon) has given your Mad Pulp Bastard and Wrecking Crew a nice write up on The Knightmare: The Murder Legion Strikes at Midnight.
And Kid Sis Lis Fies for her movie The Commune which recently premiered at the Dances with Films Festival.
Check their stuff out then go make your own cool stuff.
"As a fan of the old timey Shadow radio shows, this audio drama by Bill Cunningham and produced by the Decoder Ring Theatre is right up my alley and the Bastard nailed it. Check it out, it's free and awesome and it comes in two chapters, two chapters."He also gives props to Emmett Furey's multimedia project Fury of Solace - which looks like a lot of fun...comics, video, prose, etc...

Note to Kid Sis:
Here is my small house inspiration.
Open, efficient and modern. Approximately 900 sq. feet.
Fashioned from readily-available cargo containers.
Cost: 60% less than traditionally-built homes of the same size.

And Now, Something We Hope You'll Really Like...
Kid Sis gives the bastard a ringing endorsement after I consulted with her on her movie - THE COMMUNE.
Frankly, it was easy to work with her as she had all of the elements there, she just needed to "arrange them." Then she appropriately rolled up her sleeves and got to work.
(There's that wonderful 4-letter word again)
This picture is from Shawna's party. I sort off remember our taking it, at least the flash, but I hadn't seen it before this.
As always you may reach me through my profile page if you'd like me to consult on your movie, web serial or short. My rates are reasonable and flexible.

There's More Than One Way To Skin A Cat...
We've all been having discussions over the wonderful Dr. Horrible and the master plan to make money using the web.
Kid Sis is talking about it here.
Scott Kirsner is talking about it here.
Hell, I'm talking about it (after Warren Ellis) here.
And believe me, there's lots to talk about - the story, the production, the distribution, the marketing, the merchandising, etc...
The one thing people are harping on (or at least that's the musical note I'm hearing) is "How do I duplicate that success? I'm not Joss Whedon! Damn him. "
Do you really want to duplicate what Joss Whedon did - OR - would you rather use the same web tools he did, along with some others, to find your audience and feed them entertainments accordingly?
(All the while keeping the costs down and the creativity and fun high. Because really, if it's not fun then why do it and waste your time and energy?)
What Joss did was use the tools he had at his disposal - talent, celebrity, a network of contacts, and his spare time - to create Dr. Horrible. He marshaled forces to create an event on the web that would spur DVD and international sales.
But the title of this post says it all - There's more than one way to do this. So what if you don't have a network of contacts - get on the web and find some! (see my sidebar for great places to start) Just use the tools you do have.
Don't have financing? Look here at possible options.
Don't have marketing? Now you do.
Publicity / Advertising / Etc... Again, look around.
Need production resources? Here. Now you have them.
You don't need to duplicate exactly what Joss Whedon did. What you need is to find your audience using all this cool free stuff and then sell them on your movie...or series...or merchandise...or comic... or all of the above.
Like these guys... or these guys.
And yes, The Conversation will be ongoing in this regard as someone finds some new way to use an application to reach their audience in a new way then shares that information with other mediamakers. Don't get locked into one way of doing things because that will exclude all sorts of solutions and resources for your production/distribution/marketing woes.
