The Freedom of Thought

One of Sceneclips’ primary goals is to change the way that filmmakers think.  Filmmakers are inherently entrepreneurs, each film marking the creation of a new business.  We wish to help filmmakers raise funding by exercising that which is their core competency, creativity.  It is the freedom of thought that provides endless opportunity.

Scott Macaulay, Editor of Filmmaker Magazine wrote a great piece in the Fall 2008 Editor’s Letter that I would like to share with you.

“We are in a new world, and whether that world is a temporary one marked by economic recession and, for film, a muddling through to more efficient new revenue models or, whether it is, as may be more likely, a lost decade during which the production and distribution paradigms of independent filmmaking are radically reshaped, new thinking will be required to survive.  Those who do make it will not be the richest or the most established but rather, the most creative, nimble and free in their thinking.  Those who are able to conceive of the new world will be the first to arrive there.”
