Well put! I write a filmstack all about indie film marketing and PR - there might be some useful info there as you build your studio!

Also, I have an Amazon direct account. You could put your film up there first, to try and make some of your money back, and then put it on YouTube. I plan on putting my film up there first, if I don't get distribution, and then after it's run it's course their, get it in the streaming channels.

Let me know if you need help with audio post. I'm an experienced audio post guy, that's also an indie filmmaker. Just finished my first feature for $4k.I have my own small atmos dubstage on Corfu where I live when not in LA. I'll be back in LA mid August. Maybe we can meet up.

I agree that there is a new (r)evolution in microbudget cinema taking hold. I am excited to see where you and others take it Eric. It holds tremendous potential. I am not sure I agree that YouTube -- on any Global Streaming Platform -- is an important early component for the films themselves. I think such work needs the touch of slow distro. YouTube and other platforms are great for the discussion, marketing, and context, but for the art & entertainment I think other methods will allow it to take hold. You inspired me to do a quick 30+ list of fave microbudget (sub $300K) films. I will publish that this weekend.
