Depending on where you are, you may be able to get grants and the such. In Canada, the film industry is heavily supported by the government and other institutions.
On the other hand, you can use extreme creativity instead of money, such as for movies like El Mariachi and Primer.
Of course, it all depends on what you're looking for. Mariachi was filmed in a small town, while Primer was filmed using pretty much whatever was around.
