My guest filmmaker Paul Ashton is a triple threat: writer, director, actor and I love his new film “This Isn’t Funny.” Click now, buy it on iTunes and then listen to this great chat with Paul. He also stars in Superlounge comedy director Daniel Sheppard’s new series of spots for GMC. Paul and I chat about getting a film made and distributed, our shared love of stand-up comedy, and how to take charge of one’s career.

Enjoy a few Mr. Sheppard’s spots, starring Paul as spokesman, seen here without his native Aussie accent.

I discovered Scott McMahon’s Film Trooper Podcast through his tweets, and found the information he provides to be such a valuable part of my toolkit. He also retweets the best film-related articles. We chat about his beginnings in the video game industry, and how that lead to him making a $500 feature film called, “The Cube”. Enjoy the trailer:

He also produces Film Trooper presents “Film Marketing Fridays”, which you’ll find on YouTube. Check out Scott and everything he has to offer.

My Commercial Directing Bootcamp is this Sunday. Only two slots left!

Filmmaker Adam Goldberg‘s new comedy “No Way Jose” is available July 7th on DVD and Digital HD from Sony Pictures Home Entertainment. Just pre-order now, darn it!

It’s a very funny “coming of middle-age” film starring Adam Goldberg, who is one of my favorite actors and filmmakers. Adam co-wrote, directed and stars in this wonderful picture. He also performs original songs and edited the movie. We chat about every facet of his process, from the co-writing mechanics with Sarah Kate Levy, to casting, his rehearsal process, the re-writing, shooting two cameras – you name it. Oh we do plenty of tech talk. You’ll feel like you’re making the film alongside him, through every phase of his creative journey.

Near the end, our talk takes a deep turn when Adam shares what he and his wife Roxanne Daner experienced surrounding this project. This episode is as personal as it gets. Thank you Adam.

Enjoy the trailer, then buy the film.

Happy New Year, now let’s make some plans to make some fun stuff. A short film? Feature? Finish that script? A new spec commercial for the reel? Whatever personal project you want to do, first you must set a date and write that date down in your calendar.

There are many great filmmaking podcasts and blogs that you probably know. So here are a few links that inspire me to get stuff done. The Gumroad Resource Center is cool for all types of creative products to market. I use them to sell “I AM ROAD COMIC” and they’re cool people. Over the holiday, I discovered Seth Godin’s blog and like it for it’s simplicity, yet it is most motivating.

Please send me any cool blogs and podcasts you like. (Facebook is great for that.) And let’s hear about your passion project!

Thanks,

Jordan

Creative freedom feels so good. By self-distributing my new comedy documentary “I Am Road Comic” directly to fans for $5, I’m showing the world an unfettered work. This episode is just me rambling about my grass roots strategy, and being very transparent with how the money flows. The last ten days I’ve been connecting – learning, reacting and interacting with my film’s audience. Oh, don’t fret. I’m simultaneously pursuing other outlets to bring it to the masses. Thanks in advance for your support.

I’m using two (2) turn-key sites: Gumroad and VHX. Each link is on my site, and each can host your film on a dedicated site. It gets a little nutty, and each has it’s strengths: Gumroad has a WordPress button you that makes it easy, but VHX offers PayPal. Listen and let me know what you think of the episode and the film.

Many thanks to all the comedians in the film, and the podcasters helping me spread the word. Here’s the trailer:
