I’m excited to roll out three new Film Case Studies inside Film Lab Society. Each of these takes me about a day to produce.
🎬 Blue Ruin
🎬 Whiplash
🎬 The Witch (For my Horror Filmmakers)
These aren’t reviews or theory — they’re deep dive breakdowns of how real indie films were financed, produced, premiered, and sold.
New Case Studies:
Blue Ruin — crowdfunding + genre + Cannes
Whiplash — proof-of-concept → financing → Oscars
The Witch — prestige horror → Sundance → A24
Each class includes a full 5-module course, assignments, and actionable takeaways you can apply directly to your own film.
THESE SHOULD BE USED TO SHOW INVESTORS ALSO!
This is about learning how films actually break out — not just how they’re made.
Dive in when you’re ready.
