How to Fill a 165 Seat Theater? Memphis Premiere of Vengeance Trail. Taxes are complete and I have one month to sell out my theater for Vengeance Trail. Trailer and tickets at VengeanceTrail.com. SAVE THE DATE: April 23, 2004, 7pm, Malco Cordova Cinema Grill. I’ve been inspired by Stephen Meier (https://lnkd.in/ekjeqDXR) who’s been sharing his process to self-distribute his movie Woodbridge. I’m going to start sharing my process to bring Vengeance Trail to the world. So, for the next month or so, please forgive the nothing-but-Vengeance-Trail show. Goals: Double the money I spend on the event (I have $1000 at the moment).  Use profits to plan a theatrical event in Los Angeles where the movie was shot. Create buzz for future online sales. On my plate: -Update EPK (electronic press kit). -Advertise the event locally (posters, press, sponsors). -Get 5 official reviews to get on Rotten Tomatoes. -Update all socials regularly. -Make backdrop for the red carpet experience. -Invite as many of the cast and crew as I can find. It’s been 20+ years. -Create new BTS videos to interact with filmmakers and fans. -Plan to stream the Q&A using Eventive. -Create some merch to sell. Any advice is appreciated! Ian

Okay, character animation and hand-drawn techniques? Those were never my strong suit. Makes me extra appreciative of animators who make it look amazing, especially those who bring much-needed representation to the screen. I'm committed to exposing more, exceptional people of colour in the creative and tech industries. Wesley Louis, Director and Co-Founder of, the BAFTA-nominated, The Line Animation Studio serves as an great example in the world of Character animation. I'm so inspired by his studio’s work, and his commitment to creating hand drawn art and animation art featuring Black people on his insta. The studio’s work is DOPE. Check out The  “AMARO AND WALDEN - Joyride" music video.  https://lnkd.in/eNtEEtZK It's a brilliant mashup of 2D animation layered over real-world footage.  The characters are so well done and feel so alive, their personalities and energy jump out of the screen. I honestly forget I'm not watching real people!  The attention to detail in animation of the characters brings them to life.  The music is banging, and the candid style really draws you in.  The animators' skill in bringing this story to life with the existing footage is incredible.  Pure magic where tech and analogue meet. #animation #2Danimation #characteranimation #musicvideos #creativity #tech #BAFTA #representationmatters #Blackcreatives
