Just finished the post-production work on my debut feature film, "Into the Unseen". Went for the Robert Rodriguez filmmaking style and did many of the tasks myself due to budget limitations. Here is a short teaser:
My roles: Writer, Director, Producer, DP, Editor, VFX, Color, Audio Mix
Don't let anyone tell you it's not possible. I saw so many discouraging comments on Reddit before I went for this project.
Yes, ideally I would have an AC, 2nd AD, Camera Op, gaffer, grip, etc. - but I couldn't afford it. What's the alternative? Not make the film I want to make and wait for the right amount of money to magically become available?
I think if you have a vision and the skills, there is nothing wrong with doing the work of multiple people. Life is too short to sit around and wait.
All that said, I do feel like I aged at a 2x speed during the production!
