How We Started PosterBurner and Took the First Step (Part 2)

Created On: 5/3/2023

Before we started PosterBurner, I was on a mission to make a movie.

But my career in film got off to a rocky start.

I wrecked a truck on my first day of work.

(If you missed that story, it is here)

But soon I figured it out.

For a little over a year, I took every job I could.

I would drive three states away for a job if there was overtime.

I was working like this guy:

 

 

(Here is the full video of the beaver)

And by working like that beaver, eventually I saved enough to get some equipment.

I was ready to make a movie.

But I was scared.

I had spent all this time saving up and getting ready.  

I didn't want to mess up my only shot.

Then I got a push.

And that got me going.

I was working on set for a commercial.

It was hot. The hours were long.  

And my job that day was to lug big lights around set.

Towards the end of the day, the head electrician had some problem with the way I was carrying his lights, and he went nuts.

He started yelling and screaming at me.

And this guy was a giant.

At first I was stunned.  

But then I got mad.

And in that moment, a chain reaction started that would lead to my brother and I starting PosterBurner.

I'll explain in the next post.

Thank you and if you have any questions or need anything, just let us know.

Holiday Shipping

Holiday Shipping Times & Cut Off We are currently able to ship all print types in time for the holidays, but the sooner you order, the better. Shipping companies are advising to ship packages for holiday delivery by December 16th. Many packages shipped after the 16th will still arrive in time for the holidays, but they are not guaranteeing it. While we do not have full control over the shipping and transit times, here is our best guess at the realistic cutoff dates. West Coast: Order by December 16th Central: Order By December 20th East Coast: Order by December 21st
