FEATURE: DEUCE OF SPADES - How I made a period full feature film all by myself on ZERO budget

Ted Spencer said:
Exactly. They're called "silent investors" for that reason. If they think your idea is worthy enough, they'll be happy to finance it in exchange for a good return on their investment. Most of them have no idea how to make movies (or whatever the thing in question is), and they know it. But they have very good reason to believe that the person they're betting on does...

That would be...*you*, Faith : )

On the other hand, if you can swing it financially all by yourself and make the film you want to, and it does as well or better than "DOS" (aka DOS I?) then there's no better slice of the pie than...*all of it* : )

Well said, Ted. Oh, hey, that rhymed. :Drogar-Shock(DBG): I agree.
 
I'm back!!! Did you miss me? It's been almost 2 years since my last post and I am sure many of you are wondering how the release and distribution, as well as sales, of the film went. So I think it is time for me to start visiting this forum again and share with you my experience with my film release and how it performed. Also, for all of you interested in hearing more details about how the film was made, I highly recommend you join us on FACEBOOK, like the page and follow the DEUCE OF SPADES TRIVIA I just launched last week. Every other day, I share a tidbit about a scene, giving an insight on what went on behind the scene, starting from scene 1 and working my way through the entire film all the way until the end credits. Every other week I'll have a contest for my fans to win cool stuff. Of course the contest will be based on the trivia shared up until that point ;), make sure everyone is paying attention LOL. At any rate, you will be able to learn quite a few interesting facts about this award winning, critically acclaimed cult film, which I made, without any filmmaking experience, more or less by myself and without a real budget. Here is our FACEBOOK fan page address: https://www.facebook.com/deuceofspades
 
For any of you who have followed this huge film thread and live in or around the greater Los Angeles area: I will be talking about my experience making a multi award winning motion picture as a first-time-no-film-school-zero-budget-self-contained filmmaker and I will also share close to an hour of sneak previews of my upcoming documentary "AGAINST ALL ODDS, THE MAKING OF DEUCE OF SPADES":

When? Thursday 11/19
Where? The prestigious ADVENTURERS CLUB. They don't allow non-members in, but for my guest speaker appearance, they will :). Limited number of tickets are available. Ticket price includes appetizers and dinner.
What time? Doors open at 6PM, Dinner is at 7 sharp and my presentation starts at 8PM.

TICKETS FOR THE EVENT AND ALL THE DETAILS CAN BE FOUND HERE: http://www.deuceofspadesmovie.com/online_store.htm?Iit=107&Ict=3

Many of you were inspired by my drive and determination in completing my film, and many have asked questions here. Now you can get to meet me in person and ask away, face to face :).

Plus this is a once in a lifetime opportunity to sneak into the club, meet the extraordinary members (astronauts, deep sea divers, pilots, explorers and filmmakers), an experience I think you will all enjoy.

NOTE: They can only allow a small number of guests in, so grab your guest tickets ASAP because they will run out fast. Yes, you can bring a friend or two if you want.

Hope to see you there, and looking forward to meeting you!

Faith,

Is it possible to buy a HD digital download of this film from somewhere? iTunes, etc? Can only find DVD options.

Cheers.
 
Faith, as an indy filmmaker myself, I've been proud of you since 2011. LOL. Are you going to make another movie?
