Both those statements were a bald face lie.


because he didn't say that

in fact the shit you glossed over was making the point i was making about sharing and releasing

if you actually listened to the pod cast rather that short clip you quoted from

http://smodcast.com/channels/the-secret-stash/

you would realize how much shit your talking

hell that tv show is an example of the wil wheaton sharing strategy because it came out of this pod cast series

a pod cast series that ming chen and the guys uses to talk about crazy comic book stories on their podcast networks.

http://smodcast.com/channels/i-sell-comics/page/4/


the story about how comic book men got on the air, and why "losers" like ming chen became tv star is not only very funny but informative.
You caught me. Send the feds to my house to arrest me. He says it is harder to get noticed. I added in the other stuff because getting into festivals is traditionally a good way to get your film noticed. He doesn't say so outright, but when he says "it is tough to stand out because now the field is even wider with all the competition because it is open to everybody" I assumed he meant it is tough to stand out in all fields including getting into festivals etc.

I also mentioned that he does go on to say that podcasting is easier to get started and it doesn't surprise me that he has used the fanbase he has generated from the podcast to help him with other things.
