Independent film research- Kim

What is independent film? Is it unrestrained, Pegasus out of personal film-making space? I think the answer is half .It's because independent film is not operating in a vacuum, it connect with many other institutional like economic, technological or political and also the Organizations, industry and ideologies may affect the film's theme and style.

The origin of independent film are after the second world war. Camera which are more portable and the decision of Paramount, extract a group of experimental and avant-garde film specifically shot artist's appear, films are exploiting and independent film starting become popular.

What are the benefits of independent film? The biggest advantage i can think about is they are inexpensive, you can produce a independent film with any mainstream film company's sponsor. Also independent film business isn't subject to the constraints of factors, and the subject can be very broad and rich. You can start from personal experience to the social, gender and religious concerns. So it gave us more space to show our creative and ideas without such a big expenditure.
