Green Cine notes that filmmaker Sujewa Ekanayake, who posts on his
Filmmaking for the Poor website, has launched a new blog:
Indie Features 06. The site allows several filmmakers who are all finishing films this year and screening them in festivals or theaters to post in a "group blog" format their experiences. Filmmakers include Ekanayake, the four Texas-based directors behind the anthology film
Deadroom, Chris Hansen (
The Care and Feeding of an American Messiah, and filmmaker Rick Schmidt, whose
Feature Filmmaking at Used Car Prices was one of the first no-budget film books ever published.

Thanks for the mention Scott. The group has grown to include 8 filmmakers/representing 8+ films.
One of the more accomplished filmmakers in the group is Kelley Baker (has made 3 features, tours a lot - in Europe now, showing his movies & teaching classes, has done sound work for Gus Van Sant).
Another member's film, "September 12th" will be playing in NYC, @ the Pioneer, on March 21st I believe.
