"How to Make an Indie Movie"

While sitting in class doing some research, my partner Mariana came across a blog for "How to Make an Indie Movie." This blog was perfect in the sense that it answered most of the questions we were asking ourselves. If you refer to number ten, most opening titles are hand-drawn such as in Juno.

This idea seemed cute and simple enough. I felt it would be easy and fun to hand-draw our opening credits if possible. Other tips from this blog included things such as having a green color scheme, lots of blank stares, and many wide shots. As I read through this blogger's ideas, I began to see our own film formulate in my mind. Our group began discussing places we could film. We already had the suburban setting down given we live in a very Pleasantville inspired town. However, as we were bouncing ideas off of each other, we began to wonder what can we do to allow our film to stand out and make it different from the rest?
