"Filmmakers are too quick to jump over their own communities and forget that there are hundreds, to thousands, to hundreds of thousands of people that they have access to that could help them recoup their money." - Nick Buggs

 

On the week's episode, MAKE IT Podcast host Chris Barkley has a conversation with Bonsai Creative Co-Founder and Advisory Producer, Nick Buggs. We discuss whether a great story is enough, is it okay to take a lesser role in your project and the infamous Blair Witch Problem.
