several easy ways you can help

It's not news to anyone that your average film requires the imagination, hard-work and collaboration of many, many talented people. The usual block-buster hit runs a credits list over a hundred people long...

But for an independent film, the list of people directly involved generally ranges from 5 to 15... there are no deep-pocketed production companies on the sidelines supporting the film's every expense, there's no craft food services keeping the crew-members full and energetic, there's no solid foundation for the film to build from.
