Question by muscleman: Independent FIlm Questions-Urgent?
Alright.. heres the deal
I’m working with 20-30 friends (students) on an independent film with a complete 30 page script but really low funding.
Our current spent on the movie is about $ 1000 and our max is about $ 2500 bucks.
Right now what I’m concerned about is–
Q1: Do airsoft guns require a liscence? Blank guns are too expensive.. (I live in NJ, USA btw)
Q2: How do I get my movie in theatres? Do I just call up a local theatre and ask for screenings and throw in some advertising? Or could I just release the movie on DVDs and have alot of advertising?
Which method works?
Q3:Can someone link a few festivals that an indie filmmaker might be able to get into around the north east coast?
Thanks in advance guys.

Even the Blair Witch took $ 60K. $ 2.5K sound like a very short thing. ~
30 pages sounds like 30 minutes.
