First Movie 100% Made Online - Oliver Maldonado Made Filmmaking History Being the First...

Nov. 19, 2008 - PRLog -- It's evreyones dream to be a filmmaker just like it was for Oliver Maldonado, who was a semi-retired Salesman who has Authored several book s on sales & marketing and recently put his sales experience to work by writing, producing and directing his first feature film 100% online.

When Oliver decided to do his first feature film, he went online and started doing research. He needed to research how to make a feature film. He needed to know what it was that he needed in order to do his own movie. He quickly began to learn about the movie making process and learned about independent film making. He researched others and even read about Robert Rodriguez, who made filmmaking history of his own when he made his first feature film, "El Mariachi".

Oliver said, "Reading about Robert Rodriguez inspired me! I can't believe he went out and made his first feature film for only $7,000! That's unheard of, and he was so incouraging with his words. He said the only thing I needed to know was that I was going to make a movie and he was right. I didn't know how I was going to get it done, but I took Robert Rodriguez's advice and it worked."

Oliver was so inspired that he also ordered Robert Rodriguez book "Rebel without a crew" which Rodriguez wrote about how he made his feature film. Now there's much better less expensive equipment than there was when Rodriguez made his movie and Oliver did more research on equipment.

He also researched Eddie Burns, one of his favorite independent movie makers and learned more from him about what type of equipment he should use. Oliver decided to use the same camera that Eddie Burns used in his indie film, "Looking for Kitty".

So now he knew what type of camera he was going to use, but needed to know what type of editing equipment he needed, which is when he learned of the first digital movie filmed in HD, "One Six Right". He learned that One Six Right used a Mac G5 to do all of the editing on that project using Final Cut Pro, Soundtrack Pro, DVD Studio Pro.

Oliver now learned what type of filmmaking gear he needed to film & edit a movie. Although he knew what he needed, he needed much more. He needed people that knew how to operate the gear. Poeple who knew how to edit, he needed a production company that had this gear.
he went online and went to craigs list and started searching for production companies and to his surprise, he found many companies that wanted to work with him.
It's only fair to mention that by this time, Oliver had used one of Robert Rodriguez advice and found a radio station to agree to be in his movie. He not only found a radio station, but it was the #1 Morning Show in Colorado, the Alice 105.9 morning show. This show had three on air talent personalities and they all agreed to be in the movie. So it was no surprise to Oliver that so many people now wanted to work on his project.

Oliver started lining up production companies, actors, actresses, editors, etc... He had more people respond to his craigs list ads that he could handle and he found everything he needed for his movie. He even bought some extra gear like his Panasonic DVX 100b and his Mac G5 with all of the software needed from craigslist.org .

He was surprised that he was able to find 100% of everything he needed for his movie! He knew he wanted to break some filmmaking history, but wasn't aware it would come in the form of making his entire movie oline from craigslist.org.

What a story, just imagine how many thousands of people have tried to make movies and didn't know how or where to start and right under their noses is craigslist and all they needed to do was go to craigslist where they'd find 100% of everything they needed to make their novie 100% online!

Wow! What a concept!

Why hasn't anyone else made their movies online? Maybe most people aren't aware of the resources that are right under their nose? Or maybe it's just that they haven't even committed to making their movie, which is why they haven't found out how to make it?

The bottom line is, Oliver Maldonado just made movie making history by becoming the first filmmaker to make a movie 100% online. He's even getting some of his funding online at www.ColoradoBigFootDocumentary.com where he's raising money by selling procuder credits to his movie. Although he's already completed his movie, he's short on funds to distribute it. So he decided to get participation from others like him.

Now everyone that's ever wanted to be a part of a movie can by going to www.ColoradoBigFootDocumentary.com .

Filmmaking has just hit a new level and the way movies get made is changing! Now if you have desire, passion and are willing to put in the effort, you to can make your movie online by following Oliver Maldonados system.
