Hey guys!
Last week, I published a quick blog of the photo RB posted of the final proofs for Crowdsourcing for Filmmakers - Indiefilm and the Power of the Crowd. You can read that entry here.
Today, I'm excited to share the final cover proof for the book and announce that the scheduled release date is now set for September 22nd.
As a reminder, this is the very first book to be published on the subject of film crowdsourcing. Here's what's being said about the book:
I cannot imagine a better match than Richard Botto writing about crowdsourcing for filmmakers in the digital age. RB is masterful in his knowledge of the digital space and attracting an audience, as he's shown with Stage 32, and this is the next logical step: applying that expertise to making successful films, which is one of the most important things to learn for breaking into today's and tomorrow's entertainment industry.
Dean Silvers - Lawyer, Author of Secrets of Breaking into the Film & TV Business
As a subject matter expert as well as someone who has lived it, RB has a massive amount of wisdom to impart throughout Crowdsourcing for Filmmakers that enables entertainment industry participants to build and take advantage of their personal and social media networks to reach their goals.
Paul Hanson - CEO, Covert Media
Crowdsourcing for Filmmakers should be required reading for any writer, director, or producer looking to build a career as a filmmaker. The book is a perfect encapsulation of the expertise RB developed through founding and growing Stage 32; it couldn’t be more relevant to the world of independent film.
Jason Scoggins - President & COO, Slated, Inc.
Although the book won't be released until the 22nd, it is available for pre-order through Amazon right now by clicking here

Happy Sunday, everyone. Trust you're all having a great weekend?We're still buzzing from what was a remarkable and inspiring day at the Stage 32/LA Acting Studio's 1st Film Con Hollywood. We'll have more updates about and some cool video from the event coming soon. Until then, let's get to this edition of Coffee & Content.
First up, how about 2 dudes talking acting? It's Film Acting Tips: How to Act on Camera, with Chris Mack. I love the conversational and relaxed tone of this vid. Almost makes you overlook the great reminders and quality nuggets of info within.
Next up, is there anything better in storytelling than a killer antagonist? That was a rhetorical question by the way...at least in my mind. Anyway, here's a video from the Lessons from the Screenplay team titled The Dark Knight - Creating the Ultimate Antagonist. Have a feeling you'll watch this one at least a couple of times.
Pick your roast, settle in and enjoy the content.
As always, my only ask is that you hit those share buttons above and/or email a link to this blog to those you feel would benefit from viewing.
And, of course, I always love hearing your thoughts on the material. Feel free to muse or vent in the comment section below.
Have an awesome day!
Cheers!
RB
