Welcome to One Grand Filmmakers 👋 🎉 In this community, I'll show you how I turned a $1,000 feature film into 3 more features, a full-time career in filmmaking, and relationships with the biggest names and platforms in the industry. But first... Please, introduce yourself :) (EXTRA CREDIT: Like 5 other posts, and welcome other filmmakers to the community as well!) Let's goooooo! 🚀

- One "Lottery System" I almost tried: I almost submitted my feature-length screenplay to competitions in the hopes of winning an award and potentially gaining representation. - What it cost me: Minimal time and no money (thankfully). I spent a bit of time researching screenplay competitions, but ended up not submitting because I figured that my screenplay needed at least one or two additional rewrites. - My biggest takeaway from this video: BE LIKE BRIT and build your own kingdom.

- Assignment #1: Will I use this strategy? >>> Yes. And I've signed up for the Proof Project Challenge -- as a practical way to actually put the strategy in motion soon. Looking forward to making my first feature film in the next 3-4 months. - Assignment #2: If yes, what are my 3 biggest roadblocks? If not, what are the reasons? >>> None at this time. The ROADMAP video has opened my mind to what's possible -- and has dissolved my excuses.

- Assignment #1: My biggest takeaway - the importance of starting with a unique, personal artistic vision/POV (instead of trying to copy Christopher Nolan, the Coens, or other established directors). - Assignment #2: My biggest concern/challenge - none. The video addressed all my concerns regarding the possibility of making an investorless feature film.
