I just returned to LA after two weeks of film festival awesomeness in New Mexico. We premiered our movie "Home Sweet Home" at the Albuquerque Film Festival, where we WON audience Choice Award and Best horror Film. We had a great turn out to our movie, and one of the highlights for me was speaking on a filmmaker panel with the legendary Alex Cox, director of Repo Man. It was exciting to be among seasoned filmmakers, and to find we all shared the advice. It really is all about "Just doing it" and not "thinking about it to much". Take one day at a time, so you dont feel overwhelmed by your project.
We started creating an app, back in January, and we are still working on it now in September. I dont think we knew it would take this long, or we might have never started. `But thats the key to success, just do what you can that day, and eventually you will have a finished product. It was exciting to hear Alex Cox and his wife talk about this, about how important it is to take each task one day at a time. Nothing is built in a day, and no man is an island. You need to be patient, with the long term goal in mind, and surround yourself with creative dedicated people, who wont give up when things get tough.
We are now in the process of meeting with sales reps, to sell our movie. This is a new and exciting venture I have never done before. I will be documenting the process here.
And if you have any questions, please dont hesitate to ask.
Cheers,
Alexandra
