How To Stretch A Shoestring Budget

"I chose video because I thought it was cool that something that previously was super expensive to make could now be done by a much wider range of people." 

That's what novelist Jim Munroe told us about digital film last year. Monroe is a multitasking Canadian who has produced four popular novels and built a multimedia web community over at No Media Kings.

Last week, Monroe released a low-budget digital film, one story told by seven directors. The science fiction story takes one writer's idea and turns it into a community project. Each of the seven directors working on this project brings out some new aspect of his story. 

The best way to stretch a shoestring budget is to amp up the creativity. Monroe's web community came together to make this story bigger. Check it out: 

"There's a new, chewable nanotechnology that lets you take photos with your eyes, cures cancer and eliminates body odour. But early adopters are realizing they're getting more than they bargained for. And once it spreads through the bloodstream, this new "miracle" technology is proving difficult to uninstall...This is the premise of the new independent sci-fi film Infest Wisely, written and co-directed by Canadian Sci-Fi writer Jim Munro."
