Feeding your cast and crew is so very important. Even if you are working with low to no budget, it is priority. You don't have to go broke, or even spend very much to show appreciation and make everyone happy.

"The Smiling Man" by director/filmmaker Michael Evans is certainly a short film to take a look at. With one location, one camera, two actors, and street lighting, this film should encourage any filmmaker to just get out and shoot something. Michael also edited the film.

Working with new actors brings a fresh energy to the art. When a director spends the time needed with an actor, making them feel comfortable on set allows their natural connection to a character emerge.
