Spike Lee is so smart, powerful and real.
eb4572 did you realize that he gave no real advice?
He’s not really answering the question. There are specific techniques and procedures involved. You need a treatment, synopsis of your story even a budget, seed money. Get people who have signed up and committed to work with you, a director, cameraman, actors thar will help you sell your movie. Get your movie as turn key as you can.
Most Underrated film director ever. His films are Legendary.
He’s not underrated. Damn sure ain’t overrated
@@antonioHR23 coming from a nobody in some basement somewhere
Every film he has ever made has been fantastic, with my favorite by far being Girl 6, which brought me to utter gracious tears on the last shot.
United Parcel Service inadvertently financed my first film. At the time I had a full time career with them.
Luck is a residue of design ❤️ love his mind ⚓️
how about being prepared, knowing all aspects of the process, able to answer questions potential investors will have (preferably answering them in your spiel before they ask them), and focusing your efforts on people with money and how to contact them? instead of basically 'ya gotta keep looking,' any practical info on investment scenarios for people without millions, but with disposable income, would be helpful, yeah?
there, i've helped y'all out more than ol' spike did, i'd venture to say....
Spike is a fucking legend, and this advice is golden.
Those of us in Africa financing a film is tough am in Kenya.. the film industry needs to be exploited
I went to s"skool" and rode skateboards with David West
good video!
Wow I listen to this at night really helps me😴
God willing. 🙏♥️ I love that. Never give up on your dreams or faith. 🥰
Conceptually insightful, but not practically informative. But again, it's for every filmmaker to find out for themselves. No one will give away their hard-earned connections, resources, etc.
What do they teach over there in NYU 🥴
He seems a good guy but didn’t answer the question though
Nobody wants to reveal their golden cows. And for good reason.
No real advice here. "Try harder" is a phrase people say when they don't have any real advice to share. I don't think people are expecting a "formula" but give people resources to go to, methods, and share stories on successful financing.

What do you want him to say, "call Prince, Magic Johnson, Janet Jackson, like I did?" He said be creative, resourceful, and determined. Enough said.
You sound like the guy Mr. Lee described as "waiting for that someone who did all the hard work to just turn it over to you." I don't think you'll get very far with that process.
@@Taskmediavideo No he is willing to do the work but he just wants more practical guidance like what were the steps he used to navigate so he can use that advice and tailor it to his situation maybe they overcame certain hurdles doing this or that it's nice to know how he did that so you can see useful practical advice and get take aways from that advice. Hard work etc he probably knows that but more specific advice can actually be useful and it's possible.
Theres a difference between a silver spoon and looking for specific information that can help make more informed decisions
.please baby baby please baby pleaseeeee more spike film courage. :)
Bumbitus Productions I'm cracking up only a few will understand.
He's big brother almightee!
He talks like such a New Yorker.
Love SL. But his answer were not specific enough. I would like to hear something like. If you need $5 million budget to make a film. Have $200k in pre- sales, how do achieve the rest of the financing. Thanks FC
Thanks for the comment and feedback James. This setting was great for us to meet Spike but we knew it was only a 10 or 15 minute window of time and we wouldn't be able to get super specific. At the end of the day, Spike didn't duck any of our questions. He was gracious and gave us a signed poster. Probably a day we will always remember.
Great, not enough interviews with one of the best directors working today..or ever actually..Do the right thing and rewatch Do the Right Thing ..its a textbook ^-^
What the hell is he trying to say? This isn't useful at all. there are no secret ingredients people, just do what you can
Hi Mohamed, here is a longer video on film financing that has more examples and ideas you may find helpful - th-cam.com/video/f125iYyWHZk/w-d-xo.html
😂😂😂 work buddy you didn't hear him
Hello Mrs Gal Gadot Varsano. How are you? My name is Mr Jonathan Trauner. I am 30 years old this May 15th 2024. I work at Mobileye in Jerusalem as a software algorithms tester. I am a poet writer artist and performing artist. On June 18th 2023 in Jerusalem I was hit by a bus in area of Mobileyes newest campus building. My greatest dream come true is to become the first autistic person to win a Emmy Grammy Oscar and Tony in Los Angeles in California in 2025 or win a honorary EGOT at the 100th Oscars Academy Awards ceremony in 2028 in 4 more years from now. NO ONE BELIEVES IN ME except for me.
If you want the real information you have to take his course at NYU. For free, on TH-cam, he will only give general platitudes that are not useful.
'i iz been a prof at nyc fo fiteen yrs yo'
him remind me o donald trumps
dont answer da question
Wow he said literally nothing in 4 minutes
4 Minutes of him spouting out absolutely NOTHING !!
Just him rambling on, almost incoherently. None of what he talks about addresses the issue of what people need to know about financing there films, NOTHING! Waist of time.
fax, gate keeping at its finest
What did you want him to say ask your Rich uncle
@@justinhunt4767 Thats exactly why he need to talk about FUNDING, you have no clue how to get funding do you?
Other than try to get it from "a rich uncle".
As a filmmaker in the industry for over 20 years, the biggest problem with teaching anything about film is no attention givin to explain financing a film.
NEVER spend your own money. Nor family's money!
You need to find investors, and this clown skips right through that, and without funding you aint makin sht.
@@Elemental_Entity you're disrespectful to a legend the attitude is horrible and you will never make it
Always turns everything racial this guy:
#Math: if there weren't any horrific EVENTS that occurred to people-of-color, #Spike wouldn't have any or ...how'd you word it? "everything" to turn.
Logically, he wished it weren't any racists in the world. But unfortunately since there are, and they seem to get away with their crimes...for centuries! "This" give Spike A L OT of context/material to analyze.
references: #HowardZinn's history book on America: 1492 to Present & #HiddenColorsDVDs...
Spike isn't just referencing 'race' to be fanciful. It was in place before he was born; and looks like...it'll be still in place after he's transcended. sigh.
We Luv you Spike Lee! You are courageous to Speak where others are Mute...or where some prefer You be Mute!
#1stAmendment.
@@hthtv3440 exactly! These colonizers LOVE to sweep ish under the wrong. They want us to be MUTE on the history and why things are the way that they are TODAY so bad. Keep talking, never forget.
That's his style as a director BLK America
Most over-rated director ever. His movies are junk.
Michael H Spike Lee films are classics you may think he overrated and His films are junk but you just don't know Brother Spike that well just stick to the films you like and leave Bro.Spike's films alone they are classics and a legend of His right
Its just your opinion man.
Well its just your opinion too
I guess Do The Right Thing ( voted top 100 greatest films of all time) and my personal favorite. Along with Malcolm X, Mo Better Blues, and who can forget He Got Game! Jesus Shuttlesworth! Are all junk? Are you serious dude! Junk? Really?! Wow. Go check out Inside Man with Clive and Denzel,another good movie by Spike.
Some people such as the original poster probably can't "relate" to his messages (which is crazy) so the films are junk in his opinion. You know "those" type of people.......If you get my drift lol.
