My movie or Our movie?

Well, how should it be? 

A friend, who is involved in The Rain that I am producing and directing, said she went around and said "What are WE going to do?" "What do WE have to fix?" and so on. Then she stopped and thought about and realized she said "we" instead of "you".

And then she asked me if I thought it was wrong of her to do that. 

All I could say was: no! Even though I am the producer and director it is not my movie. It is OURs! All of us that are working with this project. Even if you just are an extra fo half a day, we couldn't have made that scene without him or her. 

And those set runners are more important then you think! 

I concider my team to be equals no matter what position you have. And to hear someone say "we" just makes me happy. Then I know there are more people that are engaged into this project. I can stop feeling alone. 

But some people say: " I am making a movie. It is my movie"

I think that is selfish...

Be humble towards those who work for you and helps you. Without them hou would never be able to make a movie!

Needs!

I have needs. We all have needs!

I need money for my first feature ever. But they are nowhere to be found. 

To be an indiefilmmaker has been a wonderful process but in the same time so hard. 

We all have dreams. And my dream is to make a film that can acknowledge me as a filmmaker. This film is my dream!

Please help me reach my dream. Please...

New ways!

I am a 32 year old filmmaker on the little island Gotland, in the Baltic Sea.
I do what I believe in most, and that is to make films.
Not just any films, but the stories I want to tell and in the way I want to tell them.

I love the life of indiefilmmaking and I think that the best way to develop as a filmmaker os to make films in your own pace and your own way, without any demands in life.

That is why I love crowdfunding! I love the fact that you can let people support you and by that show that they believe in you and the project.

I have tried different ways to fund my films. Different crowdfunding sites and right now I have one project on two sites.

The first site is Sponsume.com. A really great place. Many people are visiting that page and a lot of projects get funded.
I have reached $200 thanks to that site and I do hope for more: www.sponsume.com/project/rain

But recently I have also found a really cool site, called Picocent. And it is so easy to fund proejcts there. You just have to open an account and then you are free to sponsor what ever project you want, without paying any money. :) Yes, it is true. The are getting the money from ads and you will get a lot of picocents to give to projects.
Of course it takes many picocents to reach a "normal" cent, but still! So easy!

And I hope that people will see my project there and think that The Rain is a really cool project so that it will get funded!

I am about to make my first feature! I am thrilled about it. I just wish that more people can believe in us so we can manage to make this film as good as it deserves.

Join Picocent.com you too!

Quiet...

Right now I am sitting in my bed with only one single lamp turned on and it is oh so quiet. 

And I am blown away how much the quietness can sound so much! It is just a roar in my head and I can't focus, but still there isn't a sound in here....

I guess there is time for me to shut down some parts in my life so that I can get back to life...

I have lost my life the last two months. I have given my life to something else. Something that eats me from the inside and out... But something that still makes me whole. 

There is no need to be poetic about it. There is just a need to speak without speaking. To talk without words. To hear without listening....

My life is dedicates this right now: www.sponsume.com/project/rain
