My Day Job

When I tell people I make my living as an independent filmmaker, even though my first feature is still unfinished, they don't buy it. No wonder. Nobody wants to pay to see an unfinished film, even if it's guaranteed to put them to sleep.

On the other hand, roller derby pays well and leaves plenty of time for editing video and getting out a blog. OK, it's vicious, but would you rather hold down the job Robert Rodriguez made the $7000 for his movie with, being a guinea pig in medical experiments?
