Your audience doesn’t care what camera you shot on. They care if the film is worth watching.
Film festivals don’t make your movie successful. They make your movie feel successful. There’s a difference.

Studios don’t have a ‘bias against indie films.’ They have a bias against movies that can’t make them money.

Your indie film doesn’t need an investor. It needs an audience. Find 1,000 people who love what you do, and you’ll never need investors again.
