You’re an indy mogul too!

May 15th, 2007

Next New Networks launched its newest network yesterday, and while it’s not animation it’s something that ought to be at the heart of everyone who reads this blog. Indy Mogul calls itself “the first network for the YouTube generation” and it’s really true. I’ve written here before about the revolution we’re in where filmmakers don’t need producers like me or even networks to show their work, become a star, and make a living. (In fact, the New York Times just published a fantastic story about this same subject this past Sunday.)

The first show –Backyard FX– is great. Erik Beck shows everyone who owns a home video camera and a kitchen how to do special effects at home. Enjoy Erik, he’s a star, and fly your jet pack.
