sinisher

Here's the rub. I love this whole process of filmmaking. I love the collaborative nature of it. I love actors. I love the noble futility of creating something and indulging the presumptuous notion that one is somehow going to change the world for the better with one little film.

That said, I want to do this all the time, and the economics of it are such that making vanity films is unsustainable. Some people can fund their personal filmmaking with other work in the "industry" - like acting work. I suppose I could whore myself out as a writer/director and work on other people's projects. I could also put on my rhetorician's cap and pitch bloated Hollywood horrors like Spielberg pictures that put ignorant butts in comfortable theatre seats, but at that point what am I doing?

I'm not sure what I should aim for with my next project. What do you think?

BEAUTIFUL black and white shots - !

I have abandoned my tall drink o' water rule for you!
