about the film

Synopsis

At a time when independent artists in the music industry have more power and control over their careers than ever before, "What is INDIE?" explores what it really means to be 'indie'.

The film features interviews with indie music experts including Panos Panay (Founder of Sonicbids), Derek Sivers (Founder of CD Baby) and Suzanne Glass (Founder of Indie-Music.com), as well as with 20 artists including Ember Swift and Paul Cargnello.

In defining what it means to be ’indie’, as well as looking at the changing landscape in the music industry, the film ends up being a rallying cry for indie artists, and has been hailed as ‘inspiring’ and ‘empowering’ by artists worldwide.

********************************

A True Indie Success Story:

Without any prior background in film (except for watching Super-Size Me ""way too many times"") and funded entirely with his own credit cards, Montreal director Dave Cool has taken the film from a small do-it-yourself project and turned it into an indie success story in its own right that continues to turn heads in the music and film industries, even catching the attention of CNN.com, Newsweek Magazine and Canada's National Film Board.

I loved this film. It's well put together, and extremely inspiring. Yes, every musician should watch this.

This film so rocks. Very very inspiring. My sissy-ass bass player even had tears in his eyes... but whatever. It's seriously a great movie and any musician who doesn't watch it can just continue on the road to suckdom. Watch this film - it will completely change your outlook
