It has been a crazy few days in the world, my friends. With film productions being shut down around the world, movie theaters sitting empty, and film festivals/events canceling because of the Coronavirus pandemic it might feel like the end of days. Hell, there's even a locust outbreak in Africa, no seriously!I even canceled my Make Your Movie Bootcamp out of concern for my students. I wanted to do a follow-up episode updating the tribe on what is going on, how it will affect them and what they can do during these insane times. I also answer questions I've been getting from the IFH Tribe. I go over:Should I submit to film festivals now?If I had a screening for my film what do I do?Can I get my money back from SXSW and other film festivals for canceling?Can movie theater chains take this hit?Will some studios and distribution companies be able to weather this storm?Tips on what to do while staying homeThere’s a lot of fear and uncertainty out there. Stay informed and stay safe. Sit back, pull up another stiff drink and take a listen.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/indie-film-hustle-a-filmmaking-podcast--2664729/support.
