Its kind of late at night, and I am so entranced by how unconventional and amazing this movie thats being released is:

"We Are The Strange" trailer

I think I love it

I know I posted that trailer a while back, but I wanted to give everyone another chance to see it. It really is an amazing movie, and the story of its creation really is equally awe-inspiring. One-guy in his bedroom with a computer, mini-dv camera and a makeshift green screen, making a movie for $15,000 that is getting a ton of attention and pretty much making him the face of the new self-distributed, independent digital film making spirit.

Old Trailer (my personal favorite): http://youtube.com/watch?v=6qCSahatkbk

Heres the newer trailer after the film started getting more attention(slightly more narrative)

Wow looks.....strange, lol. Have you seen it? If it's that ADD through the whole thing I'm not sure I could stomach it, lol. But it does look interesting.

I've actually seen it twice. Its visuals are absolutely stunning.

Also it should be encouraging and inspiriation for you that just one guy in his home studio was able to make a movie for $15,000 and then create enough interest in it to make more then a quarter million in self-distributed DVD sales.

I think thats what filmmaking really should be like. It goes all the way back to classical artisanry. You shouldn't pay to see a movie, you should pay to support the specific work of a specific filmmaker.
