The time necessary to create significant/valuable/meaningful long form work, and in many cases even short form work, is why, for better or worse, money is often necessarily part of the sustainability equation for media artists and documentarians even in this age of ultra low cost tools and diy distribution via the web. I don't think Chris Marker made "Sans Soleil" in his "spare time", and I don't think he could now even with an HV30, Final Cut Pro, ultra high speed broadband, and a waiting audience on Vimeo.
(Which makes it all the more inspiring to see people like Jay and Ryanne embarking on such journeys anyway.)
