This week I chat to indie filmmaker Alex Srednoselac who breaks down what it’s really like to make, finish, and self-distribute a micro-budget feature film. Alex shares his journey from creating his first feature film Cashing Out to navigating film festivals, promotion, social media, and independent distribution. 

We dive into how micro-budget films get funded, what filmmakers should know before entering festivals and why self-distribution is becoming a powerful option for independent filmmakers. 

Alex also talks about post-production, marketing your own film, using platforms like FilmHub, and finding the balance between creativity and commercial reality.
