Double Down Film Show #52: Kevan Tucker + Tim O'Neill!

On the next Double Down Film Show we’ll be breaking down an indie film case-study with writer/director, Kevan Tucker, and Producer/Editor, Tim O’Neill, the creative team behind the independent film, The Unidentified. Although a narrative film, The Unidentified was completed for $130,000, partially-improvised and shot amongst real-life events including a massive anti-war protest in Washington, D.C. After winning multiple awards at festivals across the country including Best Breakout Performance, Best New Director and Best Feature, the film is slated to premiere on PBS October 9th. · What was the most pivotal thing to raising the money? · How do you get your crew invested in your film? · How do you gather and keep project momentum? · What should you rely on beyond festivals for distribution? · How has indie film marketing evolved in recent years? · Why is it important to show up at your festival screenings? Break out your indie notebooks as we answer all these questions and many more on the next episode of the Double Down Film Show. We don’t just talk about making films, we talk about making filmmaking careers. Listen and learn every Wednesday night.
