BIG ANNOUNCEMENT
Some partnerships just make sense. After more than 14 years of coaching, consulting, and walking alongside independent filmmakers, I’m excited to officially announce that The Indie Coach team is joining forces with Filmmaking Stuff. This is a big moment. For years, I have considered Filmmaking Stuff to be one of the premier education platforms in the independent film space. The more I’ve gotten to know Tom and Jason, the more that belief has only grown stronger. In an industry full of coaches, gurus, programs, and promises, I can say this plainly: I believe Filmmaking Stuff is one of the strongest teams out there when it comes to helping independent filmmakers move from idea to execution. That is why I’m honored to partner with them. Together, our goal is simple: help more filmmakers stop waiting, start building, and actually get their movies made. You can read more about the announcement here: Meet Ron Newcomb - Filmmaking Stuff And to celebrate, we’re hosting a free live webinar tonight on film distribution and film finance. Because here’s the truth: We all have a story to tell. But passion alone is not enough. You need strategy. You need guidance. You need people who understand the path and can help you take the next step. So join us. Let’s get your movie made.

Doing a narrowcast movie atm aimed at upper Academia and reaching them directly via social media for feedback and participation has worked for this project.
Filmmaking is not a solo sport!
Filmmaking was never meant to be a solo sport. The strongest films are built through collaboration - writers, producers, directors, actors, crew, editors, investors, marketers, and audience all pulling in the same direction. Too many indie filmmakers try to carry the whole mountain alone. But the truth is, your project gets stronger when you bring the right people around the table early. Collaboration does not make your vision weaker. It gives your vision a fighting chance. Let me know: where do you think filmmakers need to collaborate more; development, financing, production, or distribution?

Funny you say that. It’s been a solo sport ever since the epidiascope all the way to your grand dad’s super-8 holiday movies. Especially nowadays, the fine art side of cinema has become cheaper and cheaper that, for the first time in history, it’s become possible to make a decent fine art film, pretty much on one’s own. Yes but yes but…. We’re talking about The Movies here! Show Business! Streaming! TV! Agreed, That’s still around. But it’s by no means prevalent enough any more in the face of the millions of cameras and one-man crews around to be called anything like a norm any more. So when a kid gets it wrong and conflates Chris Nolan with Toktok fame, there are more of them than there are of us. Therefore, by volume alone. It’s us who have to adapt. Just like “gay” and “queer” have changed, “film” and “film maker” must adapt - or die.

Until a Tubular Bells comes along. Don’t forget you’re preaching to the choir here. Those soloist posts on social media are coming mainly from Gen Z who live all their lives on the phone, alone.

I make films about the unassuming everyman striving to escape ‘ordinary’ in the search for human connection, however fleeting
