What To Keep In Mind When It Comes To Film Crowdfunding...

Crowdfunding can be challenging enough, especially when you're doing an all or nothing type of campaign where you need to achieve a minimum objective in order to receive any of the money pledged. But, there's something else to keep in mind when it comes to crowdfunding, which I certainly didn't know about or anticipate and it happened to me recently. Because of that experience, I wanted to share it with other filmmakers so they can be aware and prepare as necessary to deal with the possibilitiy. Don't forget to like, share, and subscribe!

This Earth Of Mankind (Pramoedya Ananta Toer) In-Depth Book Discussion

This Earth Of Mankind (Pramoedya Ananta Toer) In-Depth Book Discussion

Welcome to our 24th episode in the monthly book discussion series hosted by Marisa Serafini (@serafinitv) and myself, Phil Svitek. If books are your passion, you've come to the right place! In this episode, we delve into This Earth of Mankind by Pramoedya Ananta Toer which is the first book in his epic quartet called Buru Quartet, first published by Hasta Mitra in 1980. The story is set at the end of the Dutch colonial rule and was written while Pramoedya was imprisoned on the political island prison of Buru in eastern Indonesia. The story was first narrated verbally to Pramoedya's fellow prisoners in 1973 because he did not get permission to write. The story spread through all the inmates until 1975 when Pramoedya was finally granted permission to write the detailed story. The central character and the narrator of This Earth of Mankind is a Javanese boy, Minke, who is fortunate to attend an elite Dutch school because he is a descendant of Javanese royalty (the character is based on Tirto Adhi Soerjo). Minke faces a complex and dangerous world when he meets Nyai Ontosoroh, a njai or concubine of a Dutch man. Minke's life becomes more dangerous when he falls in love with Annelies, the beautiful Indo daughter of Nyai Ontosoroh. In This Earth of Mankind, Pramoedya portrayed the unjust life of the Indonesian people during the Dutch colonization period when social status was governed by the amount of European blood running through their veins. Pramoedya characterized Minke as an outspoken person, who refuses this hierarchical society by becoming a writer instead of a speech-maker, which bears a resemblance to Pramoedya's life who was jailed for two years after carrying anti-Dutch documents and then became a writer. Join the conversation! Share your thoughts, queries, and viewpoints in the comments or connect with Marisa (@serafinitv) and me on social media. In our upcoming discussion, we'll explore There You'll Find Me by Jenny B. Jones. And be sure to catch Marisa's new podcast, "Friends & Favorites w/Marisa Serafini," available at https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/friends-and-favorites-w-marisa-serafini/id1693327509.

Anxious People (Fredrik Backman) In-Depth Book Discussion

Anxious People (Fredrik Backman) In-Depth Book Discussion

Welcome to our 23rd episode in the monthly book discussion series hosted by Marisa Serafini (@serafinitv) and myself, Phil Svitek. If books are your passion, you've come to the right place! In this episode, we delve into Fredrik Backman’s Anxious People where looking at real estate isn’t usually a life-or-death situation, but an apartment open house becomes just that when a failed bank robber bursts in and takes a group of strangers hostage. The captives include a recently retired couple who relentlessly hunt down fixer-uppers to avoid the painful truth that they can’t fix their own marriage. There’s a wealthy bank director who has been too busy to care about anyone else and a young couple who are about to have their first child but can’t seem to agree on anything, from where they want to live to how they met in the first place. Add to the mix an eighty-seven-year-old woman who has lived long enough not to be afraid of someone waving a gun in her face, a flustered but still-ready-to-make-a-deal real estate agent, and a mystery man who has locked himself in the apartment’s only bathroom, and you’ve got the worst group of hostages in the world. Each of them carries a lifetime of grievances, hurts, secrets, and passions that are ready to boil over. None of them is entirely who they appear to be. And all of them—the bank robber included—desperately crave some sort of rescue. As the authorities and the media surround the premises these reluctant allies will reveal surprising truths about themselves and set in motion a chain of events so unexpected that even they can hardly explain what happens next. Join the conversation! Share your thoughts, queries, and viewpoints in the comments or connect with Marisa (@serafinitv) and me on social media. In our upcoming discussion, we'll explore This Earth of Mankind by Pramoedya Ananta Toer. And be sure to catch Marisa's new podcast, "Friends & Favorites w/Marisa Serafini," available at https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/friends-and-favorites-w-marisa-serafini/id1693327509. Thank you for tuning in, and we're eager to hear your thoughts on this captivating book! Yours truly,

Rick Rubin's Creative Wisdom: Put the Audience Last in Art

Rick Rubin's Creative Wisdom: Put the Audience Last in Art

Delve into the profound insights of legendary music producer Rick Rubin as he emphasizes the importance of putting the audience last in the creative process. In this exploration, we unravel Rubin's perspective on why prioritizing the audience can stifle creativity and result in flat and uninspiring works of art. Discover the essence of Rubin's message – that genuine art must have heart. Uncover the pitfalls of creating solely for the audience, as opposed to crafting a piece with a deep and authentic connection. Rubin contrasts commissioned works driven by studios' demands with visionary projects, citing examples like Peter Jackson's commitment to bringing Tolkien's world to life on the big screen. Join us in understanding how focusing on the audience can lead to art born out of fear rather than creativity. Learn why, according to Rubin, true artistic expression requires an unwavering commitment to the core of the creation – a passion that goes beyond audience expectations. If you're curious about the intersection of creativity and audience connection, this exploration of Rick Rubin's philosophy is a must-watch. Gain insights that may reshape your understanding of the creative process and the profound impact of putting the audience last. Don't forget to like, share, and subscribe!

Breaking the Blame Game: Rethinking Individual Responsibility in Society

Breaking the Blame Game: Rethinking Individual Responsibility in Society

In this thought-provoking episode, I dive into the societal trend of individualizing responsibility, especially when it comes to substances like alcohol and tobacco. Why do we often place the burden on individuals rather than addressing the collective impact of these substances? Join the conversation as I explore the need for a paradigm shift in our approach to responsibility, extending beyond personal blame to foster a healthier society. Share your thoughts in the comments and let's work towards a more informed and compassionate perspective together. And for more insights into this topic, check out these episodes of Pulling The Thread with Elise Loehnen: -Holly Whitaker: Reimagining Recovery https://www.eliseloehnen.com/episodes/z5uwp7aigi6lybknpcgqcjjm8ykraj -Carl Erik Fisher: Moving Past the Binaries of Addiction https://www.eliseloehnen.com/episodes/vdb56knvc2sjdvba1hcwujdwg8qvyj -Maia Szalavitz: When Abstinence-Only Approaches Fail https://www.eliseloehnen.com/episodes/6jgfec8g0l52eqz23se92a8gyspkcr

Ever found yourself engrossed in a deeply emotional movie scene, only to have it punctuated by a sudden joke at the end?

Do you notice it, and does it bother you? Let's discuss!

Why Artists Should Focus on Assets, Not Career Ladders

Why "I Don't Know" Is Your Superpower: Breaking Free from Limiting Beliefs

Why "I Don't Know" Is Your Superpower: Breaking Free from Limiting Beliefs

Have you ever been told it's okay not to have an opinion? In this video, I argue that most of the time, not only shouldn't you, but you can't afford to! Saying "I don't know" can eliminate your own limiting beliefs. For instance, a mentor once said, "The guy on the bar still wants to keep you on the bar." Sounds like a made-up belief, right? Join me as we explore the noble yet potentially untrue nature of thoughts. Judgments and opinions are what our egos thrive on, whether they hold any truth or not. Even when armed with evidence, much like Hollywood's attempts to predict successful movies, we often find ourselves in the dark until the results are in—think elections and Schrödinger's cat. Learn to adopt the principle of waiting for results before forming conclusions. Embrace the power of "I don't know" and liberate yourself from the shackles of limiting beliefs. It's time to question, observe, and break free!
