What’s one “Lottery System” you’ve tried? - Proof of concept! I've made pilots and even got $150k funding to make a 13 min POC for a sci fi movie - and it never got further than that.
It cost us YEARS because my husband who is a dop never got over not having it happen and after so many projects failing to launch (I wrote a few scripts after this) you get demoralised.
Biggest takeaway - it's a very good video with advice I kinda already knew but it crystalized my own lessons in a thought provoking way. Proof of voice, not proof of concept. Create your own routes in, which has been our preferred MO anyway. I regret should have hustled more and got the low budget feature done ages ago.
