To everyone who came out last night to Brooklyn Grange for the screening of 'The Hole' at Rooftop Films. It was such a beautiful night, and though weather difficulties caused us to move inside mid-film, it was still a spectacular time. I feel honored to have been able to screen our work with Rooftop, Rural Route, and IFC and was such a pleasure seeing the other work presented. Good job to all the other filmmakers! Thanks again to everyone for their wonderful support! See you on the big screen
xoxo

A new article by Court entitled 'My top 5 slightly illegal tips for no-budget filmmakers' was recently published by Indiewire. Read it at the link below! (P.S. The filmmaker does not condone breaking the law!) ;)

From Indiewire:

"Courtney Fathom Sell is like a reincarnation of the young John Waters. Obsessed with making transgressive low-budget movies on Hi 8 and possessing little regard for societal norms (his company is Slumlord Productions), Sell embodies the DIY spirit taken to its sometime illogical extreme. And in it’s in that spirit that indieWIRE presents Sell’s Top 5 Slightly Illegal Tips For No-Budget Filmmakers.

Actually, that adverb is something of a misnomer; it’s pretty clear that some of these tips are entirely illegal and as such indieWIRE can’t advocate them. While this kind of dedication and creativity demands a certain admiration, these opinions are strictly those of the author."
