Indy Mogul Teaches DIY Filmmaking on the Cheap

By : Categories : recommended Comment: 3 Comments

There are a lot of reasons to love Indy Mogul- “The Reel Good Show,” for instance, is very funny. But the most valuable aspect of the site is the “Backyard FX” show.

We here at Your Industry Insider are constantly (annoying, isn’t it?) advocating “making it real” – whether it be finishing the script or shooting the short film- and Backyard FX shows you that you don’t need a big budget to film your script. The instructive projects demonstrate micro-budget filmmaking and the site has attracted and nurtured an active community of like-minded filmmakers sharing films and filmmaking ideas.

Visit Indy Mogul for a dose of filmmaking instruction and inspiration.

    We’re huge fans of Indy Mogul here at my house — my kids discovered it and they’ve been inspired to make their own FX. I think the Reel Good show it hilarious! And the “builds” they show are very clearly explained — it’s an actual DIY FX show.
