Inside the Untold Journey of Creating a Hit Movie Far from Hollywood Lights with Adam Burke and Jud Nichols
Again, I was trying to do this really as an experiment, but, and it worked, as I said, I got a few people, but it really was a lot of work for not a lot of payoff, if that was my only motivation for creating these videos. So, I did all these videos, obviously, to help the Kickstarter, but they are getting some views and I built my TikTok channel now to over 500 subscribers. So, and this is from zero, you know, I started out with zero a month ago and now I have 500 subscribers. So, slowly it is building and I’m going to try and keep this going right up until we release the film and then hopefully some of these folks will be invested by the time the film comes out, you know, another three, four, five, six months and so hopefully some of them will rent it. Hopefully, by then, I’ll have a few thousand subscribers and some of them hopefully will rent the film and review it and you need a slug of people. When a film releases, a low-budget film like this releases, you need a slug of people to help you go and review it and watch it and download it and just to kind of get it into the system and get these algorithms on Amazon, iTunes, anywhere it’s playing. You want to show, you know, people are watching it and giving five stars. So, again, you’re going to need an audience for that. So, that’s the bottom line is, you know, I created these videos, didn’t really work out too much for the Kickstarter, but it’s all in an effort to build awareness for the film. So, I’m going to try and just keep releasing these videos, as I said, right up until the film is released and maybe beyond. Maybe I’ll just keep that channel going and continue on with my next film as well. We’ll just see. I mean, creating these TikTok videos is not a five-minute job, at least for me. So, you know, time is always part of the issue, but that’s the plan anyways with these TikTok videos, but they didn’t really help a ton for the Kickstarter.
