We absolutely understand that choosing to work with micro-budgets you have to be mad on some level - hence we named our educational YouTube channel Micro-Budget Madness! Don't get us wrong, being a micro-budget filmmaker is not a bad thing, it just means that you have to approach filmmaking with a DIY mentality.
Though this channel we break down how to produce, shoot and distribute micro-budget films with examples from our own micro-budget films, as well as mainstream films with a micro-budget element. We share all our experiences, from festival tips, career advice, distribution, smart business practices and everything else in between!
Want to know how we shoot our improvised micro budget feature and short films with limited crew, budget and resources?

Our one hour course How to Become an Art Department Dynamo is now available to watch completely free on our Micro-Budget Madness Youtube Channel.
Presented by Sarah Jayne, who has over 15 years experience working in art department roles on independent films, this course will teach you how to work as a solo art department person or as an art department person within a small team. The course is aimed at people who work on micro-budget productions or plan to in the near future.
