Better to tell a small story big scale as a big story to small. Since we cannot afford the buffalo bill movie, we decided to do the documentary of a museum founder, who was inspired by buffalo bill. Smaller story and I can ride on my network and don't need expensive actors etc.... Costume and prop department, I do myself and with the museum we made a deal against artwork and original photos I acquired.....
Agreed! It can be so much more impactful to tell a small story in the best way possible rather than compromising on things to fit a big story to a small budget. We love to hear about projects like yours that take this concept to heart. Thanks for watching!
@@IndieFilmCommunity and we try another way with funding the film.... We try to pay it with the props. There are tons of native American reproductions needed... Specially made- I trade with these items since 20+ years. So.. as much as possibly collected upfront, played out and sold... Than the next shooting day- crazy way, not for everybody and just if expensive props and costumes are needed.... But... Let's see if it works! So money on screen is doubled and nobody will see it. But let's see how it plays out ;)
