TIPS AND TRICKS FOR LOW-BUDGET FILMMAKING

This section is intended to be a page on which filmmakers on really limited budgets can share ideas, tips, and inventions.  We here at Detonation Films do not believe in "trade secrets" -- we'll cheerfully tell how we did anything, because in our opinion this medium is not only about filmmaking, it is about innovation, ingenuity, and invention.  Pulled off something brilliant for cheap?  Tell how you did it and be immortalized here!  Earn the gratitude (and envy) of others!  Know that even if someone else borrows your idea, A) they're struggling like you,  B) they didn't think of it first, and  C) you can still kick their butts filmwise!  Together, we can all make better films, cheaper and cooler than ever!

Submit Your Idea (with pictures, if possible)

(Please use the subject line "Tips and Tricks" so we'll know it's not spam)
