We Make Movies is a 2016 American mockumentary comedy independent film written and directed by Matt Tory.

It premiered in 2016 at the Columbia Gorge International Film Festival, before being released by Indie Rights on February 14, 2017.

When egotistical student Director Stevphen Bixby wants to make a movie for his town's Film Festival, cameras look "behind the scenes" as he rounds up his friends - and some bystanders - to help make his masterpiece: a movie that blends together all the greatest films ever made.

The film was shot over the summer of 2014 in Sacramento, California on an estimated budget of $1,000.

[1][2] When asked about the inspiration behind the film, Tory cited his childhood spent making movies in the backyard with his friends.
