Future Tense
I can almost tell the story, and I can see it published with the dust-repellent paper of the near future (homage to Back To The Future Part 2 ,and Grays Sports Almanac, McFly!). The rise and fall, rise and fall, and the rise and triumph of Tampa indie film: 2000-2015. I'm going to write this book. I know of a great documentary filmmaker who is considering making a documentary about it, too; perhaps they can base it off of my book. Since we are two-thirds through that timeline, the story is still being written, but I have a lot of hope for the future. I feel that we are at the end of of the second fall, and that the way is now paved for progress to be made. The last third of the story is my time to make a difference. In all things, we have cycles of ups and downs, but eventually things change enough to break the cycle.
We are at the dawn of a new era. The next year or two should be some of the most exciting times in the history of Tampa indie film!
Oh, and phase one of my contribution should be completed this week. The foundation for the future of Tampa indie film, Tampa Bay Film, has finally become fully operational. I will no longer have to wait to build something on that foundation, and Tampa filmmakers will benefit, also. That online film festival of mine will become more important than ever in 2010, too.
Predictions? In 2015, there will be at least six major indie filmmakers, and dozens more who are smaller, making the Tampa indie film scene one of the top in the United States, and perhaps the best in Florida. We will also have a thriving Tampa indie film community for the first time, which would have been established by 2012. Oh, and large Tampa film festivals and the Tampa film commission will not only respect Tampa indie film, but they will support it, too, as well as help to promote it. So, who will the big six be? I'm betting that I'll be one of them. Also, Tampa film festivals will support, and promote, Tampa indie film because I will own all of the good ones. Additionally, Tampa indie filmmakers will be calling the shots in the Tampa indie film scene. Those will be great times, but we must begin to work now, together, to make that happen.
