Dont be afraid to do weird stuff, so long as you do it cheaply and cover everyones bets. Be bold. Be stupid, if you have to: so long as you dont hurt anybody, whats it matter how dopey your dream is? If I hadnt made TUSK? If Id let it die as a podcast? I wouldnt have three other movies Im now making within the span of a year. Some folks will try to shame you for trying something outside the norm; the only shame is in not trying to accomplish your dreams.
