“D.I.Y. OR DIE: HOW TO SURVIVE AS AN INDEPENDENT ARTIST”
An arts documentary by filmmaker: MICHAEL W. DEAN
A FILM BY, FOR AND ABOUT INDEPENDENT ARTISTS.
www.DIYorDie.org
FEATURING
In-Depth Interviews including: Ian MacKaye (Fugazi), Lydia Lunch, Mike Watt (Minutemen) j Mascis (Dinosaur jr.), Jim Rose (Jim Rose Sideshow), Jim Thirlwell (Foetus), Richard Kern (Filmmaker), Ron Asheton (Stooges), Madigan Shive (Bonfire Madigan), Dave Brockie (Gwar) and more
OVERVIEW
A one-hour documentary depicting the methods and motivations of independent
American artists in various genres and mediums. “D.I.Y. or DIE” celebrates Underdog. A collection of portraits and profiles from a fascinating group of underground icons and overlooked unknowns working in various media including print, film, graphic art, performance art, and music. The two-dozen interviewees are all true mavericks that operate outside of any "studio system", are beholden to no one, and produce influential and quality art regardless of a continuous paycheck
CRITERIA
Our basic requirement for inclusion is that all subjects meet at least
three of the following:
1. They do something very unique.
2. They've influenced many
people in their respective medium.
3. They make a living at art.
4. They impress the heck out of us.
UNIQUE FACTOR
A main difference between this and other arts documentaries is that the people included are given face time based on what they say rather than who they are. The unknowns are given equal weight with the famous interviewees.
Everyone shouts from an equal ground.
