Texas Independent Production Company partners with CustomFlix for distribution of Anthem."
McKinney, TX (PRWEB) January 18, 2005 -- As far as Im concerned the Hollywood studio system of the 1930s may be the best business model for todays independent filmmakers," that according to award winning writer/director Dean J. Augustin. The McKinney Texas-based filmmaker has partnered with Customflix of Santa Cruz, California for the DVD distribution of Anthem," the third film produced by The Good Fight – Digital Motion Pictures, Augustins production company.
Technology is a great equalizer," says Augustin, but making films that entertain a wide audience is the most important thing."
Anthem" is a film that explores the fundamental question, What is an American?" Anthem presents a personal view of how Americans see themselves, and how a single comment, Im moving to France," can come to stand for the greater dream of acceptance and self-worth.
Anthem has to be one of the most unbiased, fair, and interesting assessments of the American people and the American constitution Ive seen or heard." According to Susan Adkins of Adkins and Associates.
Anthem" is available on DVD through CustomFlix. CustomFlix helps independent filmmakers make their programs available to a worldwide audience. CustomFlix unique on-demand video publishing service has brought together the best components of duplication, encoding, and DVD authoring. Using The Good Fight to control production, and CustomFlix to handle distribution, allows me to compete in what is normally a closed system," according to Augustin.
Not only is Anthem" available through Augustins website, www.augustins.net and the CustomFlix Video Shop, www.customflix.com, but also through major Internet retailers like Amazon, Froogle, and Yahoo Shopping. CustomFlix is a great opportunity for a large audience to see Anthem" without navigating through the normal roadblocks that independent filmmakers encounter," says Augustin.
Anthem" was filmed in College Station and McKinney, Texas as well as Paris and Normandy, France. I was looking for a fusion of technology with the ‘roots of independent film." says the McKinney, Texas, based filmmaker. A simple production that entertains a wide audience."
