A New Film Every 30 Days – Or else
Whew. More power to them, I say. Tell your students about these guys: group101 films.
WHAT IS GROUP101?
It’s all about destroying inertia.
In January 2000, each of the six founding members of Group101Films committed to making one short film per month for six months, regardless of professional and personal schedule conflicts or funding problems or even general whining, however dramatic the particular whine might be.
We embraced the new digital filmmaking technologies along with the humbling realities of conceiving, writing, casting, rehearsing, shooting, and editing within a four week period with no funds, no studio, no time, and little or no crew, all the while maintaining our own working careers. And we embraced the reality of doing it again and again, every 30 days.
