I never actually enjoyed doing math but I'm quite good at it -- especially when it comes to counting money :) Sadly the financial state of independent filmmaking is such that I don't have much happy news to report.
Though I met many people in P-town who has seen my films, most had done so on Netflix (who pays next to nothing) or by illegal download (which, of course, pays nothing). So even though my film budgets always have been very modest, it's getting harder and harder to pay back my investors as DVD sales continue to decline. Until I figured out how to solve that, I'm not looking to produce any more films.
Oh Casper, I don't want to hear this! You must make films! I don't want to be left with all the crap that hollywood is churning out! It's times like this I wish I were rich and could help you with your finances but I'm not, so I can't. I am so upset, I don't know what else to say. If I win the lottery, you WILL hear from me! -Al
