Making movies is an art, a science, a business... but most of all it's a challenge, especially for young film makers, independents, minority members, and all those who find themselves outside Hollywood and the studio system ( Read more... )

Funnily enough, I have a friend who is working on raising funds for her film and she's based in New Mexico. She is using GoFundMe to get the support she needs to make a teaser that she plans to use to help with getting the capital to produce the full length project. And it's working pretty nicely.

With that GoFundMe site, you don't need to reach a goal - people can just donate to your cause (whatever it is) and you get the support whether you reach your target or not. It's something worth checking out, especially for a situation like this (and yeah, I know people always "put up" the remainder to reach the target amount, but with this, there's no pretense).

Meanwhile, New Mexico certainly is becoming a hub of filmmaking!

Night ends, and now so begins our call to give to the New Mexico Film Foundation. And to think, three days ago I was only thinking about the Academy Awards, not the struggling independent filmmakers. Do you think, great Ser, that there is any chance of ever getting to see a Wild Cards film out of this? Now that would be a cause worth donating to!!!

Wild Cards is under option at Universal, but if it does get made, it is unlikely to be in New Mexico. Wild Cards is very much a New York City kind of film.

Hello I would like to join the New Mexico Film Foundation. I represent a minority, new to film and an independent. Like to know where we can start. I would like to do some KS, Indigogo projects. I have some connections and have written some stories. Please let me know who I should contact and how we can start a dialogue. I have some tremendous stories to tell that have been based on history and my true life experiences. I am on FB and I can be contacted at longfin@yahoo.com Thanks so much for helping others, Mike Woo
