Think today's filmmakers are stuck behind the camera? Or the edit room?
Think again.
Many filmmakers are harnessing the power of the web to tell another side of the story– their story.
Readers enjoyed my earlier post, "7 Interesting Storytellers to Follow on Twitter," so let's continue this series with some interesting filmmakers.
Keeping in the spirit of Twitter, the following "tweets" are 140 characters or less.
