Episode 3 – Education (“We Don’t Need No”)  

This episode makes me laugh.  Editing it down was hysterical.  I cut eight minutes worth of ‘uh’s and re-takes out of it.  I thought I was going to get better at this!  Most of it’s pretty seamless, but holy heck was I a mush mouth this week.

Ah, but I am getting better at this.  For instance – here’s my first real attempt at Show Notes! Hopefully next episode (including my first planned interview (with Craig March)) will be even better.  I bought a digital voice recorder today, so I’ll be able to record away from my computer.  This will allow me to get away from the damned hum of the fan.  It’ll also allow me to get out and interview people out and about.  I know this is pretty much de rigueur for many pod casters.  But it’s a new horizon to me.  Whee!Okay – the show notes:Here’s the only like I can find to Bob Hume (Writing from the Bones) at the moment.  So you’ll still have to leave a message for more information.Chris Jones is the author of The Guerilla Filmmaker’s Handbook, author of The Guerilla Filmmaker’s Blueprint and the teacher of The Guerilla Filmmaker’s Master Class.  Check out his movies, White Angel/Interview with a Serial Killer and Urban Ghost Story (Really DO check out Urban Ghost Story.  Good stuff.) made by Living Spirit Pictures.  And as an update… he has NOT shot another film, but  Rocketboy is coming up soon, and Transplant will follow on it’s heels.The FTX West conference. The DV Expo conference.  And for the record, I was talking out my ass about ‘HD Expo’ it was DV Expo that I was thinking of all along.And here’s the Biz Books website – I’m sure info about my ‘How to Start…’ lecture will be posted there soon.  They will fill orders on specialized film, theatre and TV books all around the world.  Check ‘em out no matter where you are located – they are tops in their (OUR!) niche.A bunch of places to find opportunities to volunteer on films:The IFP.Indie Access.

Indie Film maker’s Alliance.

The Cineworks Forum.

and of course… the mighty Craigslist.

This week’s feature website: Filmmaking.com Oh and… yes I know.  I recalled later – I was trying to say ‘there’s more than one way to skin a cat.’ Remember January 30^th at Biz Books in Vancouver I’ll be doing one of their ‘How to Start….’ lectures.  “How to Start Getting Off the Couch and Make that Independent Film You’ve Been Saying You’re Going to Make.”  6pm.  302 West Cordova, Vancouver, B.C.NEXT WEEK: “Partners” with guest, Director, Craig March.
