The Investorless Feature Film Course is Live Inside the Community Alright, filmmakers — this is the big one. The full Investorless Feature Film course (aka The Indie Film Flywheel) is now live in the Classroom tab. If you’ve been serious about making your first feature — without waiting for permission, investors, or “someday” — this is the step-by-step roadmap you’ve been looking for. Why you should take it (right now): 🎯 Clarity: Learn the only replicable career strategy that works for actors, writers, and directors — making a small, personal feature with the resources you already have. 🔥 Speed: Cut years of trial-and-error and get from idea → finished film faster than you thought possible. 📈 Momentum: Build a career flywheel where every film fuels the next — bigger audience, better collaborators, and more opportunities each time. 🚫 No Fundraising Required: Avoid the endless investor hunt. This approach is designed to keep you creating now, not waiting. 🤝 Collaboration: Learn how to attract the right collaborators without begging or chasing — and why the right people will want to work with you. 💡 Proven Examples: See how filmmakers like Greta Gerwig, Christopher Nolan, Robert Rodriguez, and Sean Baker used this exact principle to break into the industry. Plus, there’s a $500 reward if you finish in 5 days. This isn’t just a gimmick. I want to keep this community lean and full of action-takers. If you finish on time, you’ll unlock a filmmaking tool I’ve only shared with my private clients. This course is $1, but will be sold online for $47. Just to find filmmakers that are serious. 👉 Go to the Classroom tab now and click “Investorless Feature Film” to begin. Let’s get that first film in the can. – AJ Rome

Will I use this strategy? Yes. Will explore this method and make a feature film. If yes, what are my 3 biggest roadblocks? -is my story idea a good film idea? -pre-production...casting, locations, crew(sound person) -directing...I've been a PA on short film shoots, but never an above the line position. -post-production...editing, music, sound....re-shoots?

My biggest takeaway is: i can downsize or rewrite many of my screenplay ideas to a more manageable and no budget type production. My biggest concern/challenge is: Getting cast and crew together and finding locations.

Hi, What’s one “Lottery System” you’ve tried? I;ve tried the Austin Film Festival. What did it cost you (money, time, energy)? Over $100 dollars with submittal the main script category as well as submitting to some sub-contests they offer. What’s your biggest takeaway from this video? I also figured out that most screenwriting contests only want your money. but there are a some big ones that if they give feedback might be helpful, like Austin Film Fest, the Nichol, Scriptapalooza, Big Break. I don;t submit anymore and wish to make my own films and thats why I am here.:) Biggest concern? I was concerned about how I would be able to get my work noticed, but really I have been working on letting all that go and simply creating as an artist and having fun. It's difficult as I get a little anxious sometimes, but life is short, gotta get going and make some stuff and have a life.:)
