My guest on this episode is Tim Lightell, who self-distributed his comedy, Manbaby -- about a stand-up comedian who tries to convince his wife to have a baby by actually becoming a baby himself. Tim made the film in the mid-2010s on a 5-figure budget, and spent eight - as he describes it - agonizing years trying to get his film made and out to audiences. But despite that characterization, it’s clear that Tim also really enjoyed the process of both making and releasing the film. Tim did a bit of four-walling and then released on Tubi and other platforms. In the interview Tim is very transparent about the ups and downs of his journey; he talks some actual numbers, and we also touch on some good, hard information about how streaming platforms work … plus you get a little ranting from me about the state of the indie film distribution today. Tim’s story is a good one, there’s some positive, some negative, but mostly it just comes down to that magic of moviemaking.
