Indie filmmaker or used car Salesman or both

As an indie filmmaker I  feel a little like the little engine that could chugging onward or upward.The other image that comes to mind is the little plastic ball that one places a pet hamster in while watching it roll around all over the place.Better yet, a Used car salesman. Many in the industry compare indie filmmaking to the latter.I know I certainly do.

Well our film Spirit of Love is done,and ready to make its US festival premier at the Texas Christian film festival.http://www.eventbrite.com/event/4989269038#  scroll down to our film and reserve your seats.Many ask why? Why not Denver?Especially since we shot it in Denver with Colorado talent this past August in tremendous heat.(thats how you know we were serious) The answer as in filmmaking is not an easy simple one.

The main reason they invited us.It was never a part of the original plan.But neither was the death of a key distribution ally.So for those who don't know festivals are part of the strategic plan.We were also waiting on some local sponsors in Colorado that did not materialize so we are starting the adventure of promoting and selling the film outside of the Rocky Mountains.
This is an avenue that I have done before. Its part of the business.We dont just screen the film for anyone.Its about getting  the right people and audiences to see the film and share it with others.Specifically the media.The process is non stop.You hock your wares constantly and appropriately.

Texas provides an avenue that is perfect for inspirational family films.Which I am proud to say, is what we have.
We are extremely happy to announce that we are screening in Houston during NBA allstar week,and actually we screen the night before the big game.For this very reason we are thrilled to be receiving
promotional marketing support from the NBA and NBA retired players association.http://www.legendsofbasketball.com/2013/01/spirit-of-love-the-mike-glenn-story-premieres-in-the-lone-star-state/

We are hopeful that we will make some noise down in Houston and be able to parlay that into more interest for our film. As I have said before it is part of the process.

I hope you will continue to support the film by promoting it to your family and friends.
Please ask them to like it and share it with their friends.https://www.facebook.com/Deaf.HOH.Basketball.Camp.Sports
