Film Everyone who is a regular reader will have noticed by now I'm a huge fan of low budget film making. Who needs fanatastic production values nayway. Just give some guy a camera, a well written script and a couple of actors and you're on you rway to winning Sundance. Actually it isn't that simple, as Film Threat describes in its list of 10 Stupid Things Indie Filmmakers Do To Mess Up Their Movies:
"Okay, we all understand that making an indie film requires you to do, well, everything. But taking credit for everything makes you look naïve. Inexperienced. The opposite of humble. (I’ve got some more adjectives if you want them.) Writer/director is the only credit you should care about as all the other duties are implied in those two words."
Some of the best film credits I've ever seen are when the film maker has obviously handed out credits to his families and friends. That seems to be a good way to go.
