So you want to make a mumblecore movie?

Here's a video of "Baghead" director Mark Duplass describing the filmmaking methods he and his brother Jay employ when making one of their studiously offhanded low-fi movies. What's interesting is that the new film is more tightly structured than previous work like "The Puffy Chair" -- mercy, it even has a plot -- and that the loosy-goosey approach outlined here definitely shows signs of strain. You try letting four equally important characters improvise while deciding which one to train the camera on.
