How can you shoot a short on racism with possibly zero money and a mini video cam? Do you think it's possible? Any suggestions?

Thank you everyone for such a kind response and taking out time to watch my film and sharing your feedback. It has been most helpful and encouraging. Thanks again. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QkNQrdEo_PA

Expand commentAt first, I thought, that the boy was a vision of the main character as a child. After another watch, I realise that the boy is a separate character. Yet, I still feel the boy was only in the main characters thoughts. So close, and yet so distant. I honestly thought the character was remembering an incident of himself as a child. Until, the boy helps him up and hands him his glasses. Beautifully filmed Amit. Beautiful cast also. The isolation the character felt, was wonderfully captured. Loved the choice of sounds that accompanied the piece also. I just wanted the film to go on... Thank you for sharing....
Thank you :)

Appreciate this...
thanks

PS: The camera used for the fundraiser page is definitely not the camera that will be used to shoot the film! The film will be shot on a Panasonic GH2.
Good luck with the campaign! Like the title.

I am about to launch my first one, and I have done some preliminary legwork such as joining forums and actively participating. I would like to know any other tips you might have for me. Like most independent filmmakers, I am passionate about my project, and will do pretty much whatever it takes to make sure it comes to a head. Thanks a million.

Expand commentHi Irina! This is actually easier than you think. ALL of my short films are done this way. First of all, simply ask. You'd be surprised at how far asking nicely and giving credit will go. Use friends and family to assist you. Check out student media clubs/programs. Many are looking for roles for credit and experience. You have an edge because you're making a film about a serious topic. Check out local anti-racism resources. They might be willing to help. Shoot me a message if you want to talk more. Jason
