How To Make A $50K Feature In 5 Days And Land A Theatrical Release
Listen now
Description
Today I am joined by filmmaker, director, and actor Scott Monahan to talk all about his brand new feature film Anchorage. Anchorage was shot in just 5 days on a budget of barely over $50,000, but that didn’t stop the film from landing a wildly successful festival tour and eventual theatrical release. Throughout the interview we take a deep dive behind the scenes look at this innovative feature. We also go in depth on the importance of telling personal stories, the production process, festival strategy, navigating rejection, and so much more.
