Why CREATEABULL FILMS LLC and Why Now?

Welcome to our site and my inaugural blog post! My name is Ethan Bull and I started this company, CREATEABULL FILMS LLC, this site and blog because I have pulled the trigger and am moving ahead with my debut feature film, “Produced By Jimmy Wade”. Think of this blog as a way to track our progress with this project… being able to see the ups, downs and everything in between from day one through the premier.

By no means is this an easy task… from financing, getting the script in shooting form and finding other creative talents who want to be a part of this endeavor… to the actual production, post-production and finding the right distribution, we’ve got a long and exciting road ahead. What better way to document this than through a blog, right?

But before we move on, here is some background information…

I came up with the name “CREATEABULL FILMS” about three years ago one day while I was writing… or procrastinating, whichever sounds better. The logo with the bull horns on the bull horn, came about a year and a half later in a bar, over beers with a couple of friends of mine on the back of a cocktail napkin. Now you may be asking yourself, “Why did it take another year and a half to get this company going?”… the answer is the script… the story. No use starting a film production company unless you have a script to produce that you’re passionate about, right? Up until a year ago, I wrote stories and scripts that I NEEDED to write… stories sometimes have a need to get out and they did. What these previous stories required however were big fanciful sets, expensive props and grand ideas which make them very costly to produce as films… not debut independent feature material. With that in mind, I began writing “Produced By Jimmy Wade” knowing 1. I do have a sustainable passion for this story and that 2. This was going to be made on a tight budget as my feature debut. Now that the first draft is finished and while I wait on feedback from my reader and representation, I’ve had some time to work on this site and the formation of this company.

Having worked in the independent film community in New York City since ’96, I hope to share some of my experiences, filmmaking knowledge and the trials and tribulations of our debut film, “Produced By Jimmy Dowd”, to anyone interested in stopping by and reading our blog. If you’d like to ask a filmmaking question, suggest a topic for a future blog post or bounce an idea off me, please email info@createabullfilms.com.

Thanks for stopping by and check back soon for updates. EB
