My friend Matt Shevin's self-financed movie
The Beneficiary, got into last year's Cannes Film Festival (read all about it on his very funny blog,
Inside the Actors Studio Apartment). We implored him to go, and he wisely decided to bring along a few copies of the movie . But rather than schlep a stack of DVD's across the pond, I created a credit-card shaped USB drive for him, which we were able to imprint with contact info and stills from the film. We used a company called
flashbay.com to manufacturer them - they were super easy to work with. Cool stuff.
