BPS 267: The BRUTAL & RAW Truth About Film Business with Darious Britt

Today on the show we have director, producer, screenwriter, actor
and YouTube sensation Darious Britt I had the pleasure of meeting
Darious at the Mammoth Film Festival. At the festival, we were
snowed in and pretty much stuck in our hotel. We sat down and
talked for hours about indie film, his journey, my journey, the
state of indie film, fear, setting goals and so much more.I knew I
had to have him on the show to talk shop. What you are about to
listen to is a DEEP DIVE into the psychology of a standard indie
filmmaker. We break down the brutal and raw truth of what it takes
to make it in today's world.We also discuss how to build and engage
with an audience.

His amazing channel D4Darious is a MUST for any and all filmmakers.
I've been a fan of his work for years. I love his approach and
teaching style. Here's a bit about the man.He attended film school
at the University of Arizona and graduated in May of 2012 with a
bachelors in Media production. He toured his short film “Seafood
Tester” to four international film festivals including the
Oscar-qualifying Aspen Shorts fest in 2012.Darious created the
youtube channel D4Darious, in August of 2013 and it has since grown
to over 340,000 subscribers and over 10 million views in five
years.

He has toured his first feature film “Unsound” on the film festival
circuit screening at over 20 international film festivals, winning
7 awards including best director at The Pan African Film Festival
in 2015. He loves telling stories and helping other filmmakers
learn the craft to reach their highest potential as
storytellers.Now I warn you, this episode runs nearly two hours but
I promise you it will be worth it. I lost count of how many
knowledge bombs went off in this episode.

Prepare to get your mind BLOWN and enjoy my conversation with
Darious Britt.
