Beyond the Credits: Leveraging Your Documentary Film for Long-Term Impact Ep 77
16m · PublishedThis week on the Moonshine Moonshot podcast, host Sue Collins discusses the power of independent filmmaking and how it can be applied to various fields. Using a case study of a documentary called "Conquering Cancer," Sue encourages listeners to think beyond just creating a film and moving on to the next project. Instead, she advocates for hybrid distribution and maximizing the potential of each project. Filmmakers can avoid burnout and reach a wider audience by avoiding the constant cycle of starting from scratch. Your film doesn't have to be a one-and-done. It can be ongoing and help you build a genuinely sustainable career.
A must-listen for any aspiring filmmakers or media professional.
