Top Uses For how to diy

There seems to be a lot of misunderstandings about this Video / DVD.
First, part of the movie’s title is “How to Survive as an independent artist” and i place an emphasis on the word SURVIVE. This video is not a guide for artists to get rich and famous in 15 minutes or less. If you are looking for hot tips on how to strike it golden, this ain’t it.
This DVD is not a substitute for business school, it won’t tell you how to start a record label or how to magically promote your art to make you famous.

What this video provides is an insightful and inspirational guide to artists looking for viable ways to make a living of what they love the most: their art.
Are you looking to get your music heard? why not find inspiration on Ian Mackaye, one of the fathers of hardcore rock music and the quintessential independent record company owner that has launched the career of countless punk and hardcore artists and paved the way for other independent punk labels such as Epitaph Records.
The artists interviewed on this DVD are not some of of Michael Dean’s “completely unknown buddies”, as some *completely* clueless reviewer put it, but well known artists such a Dave Brockie of metal shockcore GWAR, Jim Rose who’s performed with his shock circus for hundreds of thousands of people on Lolapallooza festivals across the country. Photographer and filmmaker Richard Kern and performance artist / writer Lydia Lunch are fairly well known NYC underground artists around the world. Or how about producer / musician J. G. Thirlwell who at some point managed to get a record contract with Sony records and has released over seventeen full length albums including remixing artists like NIN and Marilyn Manson?

This DVD is a masterfully edited and conceived piece of work; low on slick Hollywood production effects but high on content and inspiration.

Quoting Ian Mackaye from the DVD, “you can’t fail doing what you love”, so any true artist will find a piece of this DVD in their artists’ heart.

    Dean taps into the core of the punk rock DIY ethic by interviewing independent musicians, photographers, performance, print, film, and graphic artists. These artists are both entertaining and have profound things to say about independence, integrity and working outside of the “culture industry.” The message is solid and inspiring while it isn’t sugar-coated. A solid film and one to copy and share with your friends. (Its encouraged!)

    I’ve read Dean’s $30 Film School and it’s a great guide for the beginning filmmaker so naturally I wanted to check out his first film. In a way, this is more a collection of interviews than a proper documentary, but it serves its purpose, which is to prove that yes, you too can say %$@* the system and make art and continue to eat while doing it. If that’s your dream and you need a dose of inspiration then you should find this film helpful indeed.

    Being an independent musician and ravenous film buff, I was obviously drawn to this movie for the title alone.
    Having seen more than my share of low-budget B-movies and homemade fan films, to tell the truth i wasn’t
    expecting exactly what this movie was about… an affirmation.
    It seems I was naive to the parallel world of artists,writers,photogs and musicians that this movie delves into.
    Interviewing such names as Fugazi, Jim Rose,and J Mascis of Dinosaur Jr, to name a few, Michael W. Dean
    finds much more than a “How to” survival guide through his explorations. It is an anthem for the passionate.
    It has a spirituality and sense of community. Most importantly, it’s done what so many movies have failed to do…
    it’s inspired me.
