Do you need fancy gear to make a feature film that gets screened at festivals and an international distribution deal? The answer, simply, is no.

My name is Dan Hasson. I am the writer and director of the feature film, When Are You Moving Out? The film was made with my good friend and producing partner, Tom O’Brien, who also starred in the main role. It’s a film that took advantage of what we had access to, turning it all into part of the story. The film centers on two best friends moving in together, but disagreements about cleaning and house parties are destined to drive them apart.
That was it, just Tom and I. We had no crew so that forced us to wear many hats. The film was made for approximately $3,611. This covers food, equipment, and post-production. That is a lot of money to any individual. However, by feature film standards, this is a no-budget film, and yet we succeeded in getting it made and then securing an international distribution deal.
