Will it be possible one day to create a world-class feature film from your bedroom? Perhaps we are not that far away. What we're about to share with you has potentially the same impact.
For about a year and a half, a dedicated group of our own New England film-makers and programmers have worked hard to create a tool that we believe does for indie films what the Wikipedia did for encyclopedia articles - namely, democratize the creative world.
Let's try to put it a different way. Have you ever had problems:
For film-makers: Lining up all the people you need to pull off a movie? Coordinating the large teams to produce?
For writers, talent and crew: Getting to be part of exciting projects before they become "too" popular?
Today, you're one of the first to hear about a tool built created to solve these specific problems and help you focus all your creative energy where it matters. Beanywood has now partnered with the great company that developed it to share with you the first experience. It went online just a few hours ago!
If you want to go and see it for yourself right now go and create your account at: http://www.icrew.com
If you want to read some more before creating a free account, here are some of the benefits:
Use "wisdom of the crowds" to help in your project's needs - whether it's related to the story, talent, locations, props, promotion, legal, etc.
Share your on-going projects on Facebook, or any major social network to recruit/promote
Benefit from solid contributors that are remote
Focus the energy otherwise wasted on coordinating towards the the creative process
And talent and crew, build your portfolio of produced work by collaborating with others online.
More information to come about two of the very interesting kick-off projects starting today(!)... in the meanwhile you can check it out for yourself, and start getting help/joining projects at http://www.icrew.com
The world won't wait for us, we have to seize the right opportunities.
This is not an RIFC Production
