    MWD, I’m a sort of fan myself. I am a proud owner of your $30 FS book and I use it as a guide to making my own DV movies. The advice you provide in the book and in the movie DIY or DIE is phenomenal, and I would recommend it to anyone who wants to get into their own no-budget filmmaking. I am my own no-budget DV movie maker myself and you can see some of my work on my profile and channel if you get the time. Thank you for the book, and congrats on making your name known as an “indie filmmaker”.

    There is one. Look at the “about this video” over on the top right.

    Bought this YEARs ago, not knowing what it would be about. I love it and still watch it to give myself a boost, a reminder of why I do what I do (and that I’m not the only one who thinks this way)!

  13. flameape says:

    could you make a playlist of the film?

  14. SiameseGunKiss says:

    not that it makes your point any less valid, you just could have had a better example

  15. SiameseGunKiss says:

    conveniently the pyramids also wouldn’t have been built if it wasn’t for mass exploitation. yeah, awesome.

  16. ollierulez says:

    thank you

    PS those who want to know how he did it, go buy $30 film school (I did; it’s great). R

  18. robertdigger says:

    Joseph Campbell basically said that artists define the mythology of our times; they are the agents for change and progress, and they don’t do it by “being pragmatic” but by chasing all kinds of dreams, big and small (the pyramids would never have been built had the pharohs based their decision on a return-on-investment analysis). Michael has put together a fantastic, no bullshit portrait of exactly who these people are in our times. Great job, Michael.

    I find this very inspiring. Great interviews, especially with Ian. Thank you for empowering individual self-expression

  20. raw420x says:

    Like most Indy artists I work solo, this is a great find, and movie. *****

  21. jamisony says:

    liked this a lot, look forward to your next flick. come to europe.
    hi from Oslo

  22. versusforward says:

    Mr. Dean,
    Thanks again. I’m so glad I got to see this. I don’t have a debit card, or I’d have already bought it.

  23. yumfactory says:

    This is a great documentary and dare i say it,, inspirational in a hippydippy-less way, without the gushing optimism. I like how it redefines “making it big.” It embraces the realities, sheds light on some of the glaze of the self made donut. It’s fast moving and puts all the interviews on an even playing field. it’s not perfect, but it’s minor flaws are reconciled with heart. it certaintly recharged my batteries when i first saw it at Gilman a buncha years back.

  24. psalms4us says:

    Hey, NAF, can i see your latest documentary?? I thought so….

    It’s nice to finally see a picture of you. Thanks again for $30 film school, Mr. D!!

    Love this film Michael. I posted a quick article about it on my site, hopefully that will bring in a few new viewers. Keep on rockin’ and thanks for all your hard work that made this film possible!
