After production is complete everyone returns to life as they know it. for This is no different for http://spiritoflovemovie.com Kids return to school, actors are off to the next project or audition awaiting them, and crew members move on to the next production. In most cases many of them will work numerous projects before an indie producer or director completes their last project. Most people have no idea what it means to be an indie film producer,director,etc.
I'm reminded today of all the post production work that is needed in order to finish a film. You have to confer with editors, composers, check all the paperwork that is needed in order to sell the film. Make press packets including online media. Make decisions as to what goes in the theatrical trailer or not. Do you go the film festival route or not,even if you've been invited to several. Check all the names and product placement companies and check and double check information for the rolling credits.
Nothing ticks an actor off more than spelling their name wrong.(Sometimes we just make a mistake.We don't do it on purpose.)
Plus the item probably most important to cast and crew is without a doubt the proverbial IMDB credit! (that by itself takes hours just to submit names and info,and usually more than once). I've submitted credits 3 and 4 times previously.
I have stacks and piles all over the office all organized so that I'm ready to rock and roll when its time.
Today I had lots of important calls and notes to draft up when I was reminded that Life Goes on after production. I received a call that my little nephew was sick at school and could I go pick him up?Absoultely! So see Life goes on even for the indie filmmaker whether you want it to or not.
Oh well back at it tomorrow. Good Night Indie Filmmakers wherever you are.
