In this episode, Kirk rhapsodizes about his year working on 5 48 Hour Film Project events in 3 states, and then chats with Mark Ruppert, Indra can 't Hooft, and Wouter van Gestel about the past year in the 48 Hour Film Project and what's to come in 2024.
In this episode Kirk talks with Note, Nuk, and Note Suwanchote. They are 3 brothers who have been participating in the Seattle 48 Hour Film Project since 2011, winning many awards and taking the big prize, Best in City, in 2021.
In this episode, Krk and Indra discuss how the podcast played out in 2022, why there was s stall in episodes and how they plan to address it in 2023. They also talk about Filmapalooza 2023 in Los Angeles, their crazy road trip from Seattle to Filmapalooza, and our new Patreon site!
In this episode Krk and Kris talk with Allison Whitmer, the Montana State Film Commissioner. They thank her profusely for her vigorous and persistent support of the Montana 48 Hour Film Project, the inherent production benefits of shooting in Montana, the myriad talented filmmakers in Montana, the informal development of a Pacific Northwest production alliance, the Seattle Film Summit, and bear sightings.
Krk talks with long time 48 Hour Film Project participant in Seattle and Portland, Brian Sutherland. They talk about the winning strategies that the various teams he's worked with have employed. (He's been in 2 Seattle winning films and 1 in Portland!) He describes how the 48HFP has helped him create a career as an actor and acting coach. Then Krk and Brian dig into the ethics of cheating in the 48... or rather they both wonder why anyone would cheat in the 48. WHat's the possible benefit really?
Kris, Krk, Indra, and Wouter discuss their recent 48HFP related travels to the south of France and basically all of Montana east to west!
Franklin Carpio is a union grip in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, indie filmmaker, 48 Hour Film Project participant and all around nice dude. We discuss why the 48HFP resonates with him, how it helped train him for the rigors of working on long, professional shoots. We also dig into the idea that filmmaking isn't just about actors, directors, cinematographers, and editors... the needs of film production span a wide variety of professional occupations.
Krk and Kris are on the road in Montana this week recruiting for the Montana 48 Hour Film Project. They recount the tales of meeting some really interesting people in Hamilton and Missoula, and then a random encounter with a 5 year old girl ends up becoming an introduction to a likely participant in this year's event!
In this episode, Krk basically laughs through the entire episode because that is what he and his buddy, Dima Levanchuk do when they get together. On the serious side, they discuss how Dima went from a career in math and science at Boeing to doing the 48 Hour Film Project, then working at pop culture phenomenon, Funko, and eventually on to AWS at Amazon. There's also talk about the seriously goofy films they made together in the 48HFP sibling event, The Four Points Film Project.
And...
And...
Krk geeks out over the fact that Dima introduced him to Charlie Benante, Frank Bello, and Mark Osegueda of Anthrax and Death Angel respectively.

Nisse, Kirk and Indra geek about about their desert island movie selections. Discussion gets heated when they debate whether a series or a standalone movie should be considered in the question. Then they dive deep into Lord of the Rings, Monty Python, David Lynch, Sam Raimi, and Edgar Wright dorkiness.
Kirk and Indra have a long chat with Nisse Eimers, a Dutch filmmaker and frequent 48 Hour Film Project participant. They go into the depths of why people participate in the 48HFP. Do the awards really matter? How does a competitive nature fit into the equation? They also dissect why it seems that the Dutch 48 Hour filmmakers are always making their films at such a high level compared to other countries... along with France of course. And it's not necessarily what you might think! They also discuss the importance of music in film and how it completes the magic.

In this episode, Krk and Indra chat with Christopher Cherry, long time co-producer of the Toronto, Canada 48 Hour Film Project. We discuss his journey from film to participating in and ultimately running the 48HFP in Toronto. Along the way, we discuss the virtues of attending film school as well as the benefits of not attending film school and just diving into the industry by working in film and television at entry level positions. We then devolve into meandering chatter about set slang, tattoos, Canadian period piece television, Steven Spielberg, Sam Raimi, Matt Berry, What We Do In The Shadows, and Peter Jackson. There's also some jabber about middle child syndrome.

Today I talk with Scott Lebeda, a camera operator in the Boston area and prolific 48 Hour Film Project participant. We talk about his experience working on the Academy Award winning film, Coda! That's right! He worked on Coda! We also talk about the benefits of working in the Union, almost working with Sam Raimi and Bruce Campbell, how much we both love Simon Pegg and Nick Frost, how he wants to be Kevin Smith when he grows up. And, to keep things on brand, we talk about how the 48 Hour Film Project helped in his career development, strategies for a successful 48 weekend, and how the exponential advancement in camera and computer technology has changed (and is always) changing the industry.

In today's episode, I chat with Scott Vasquez and Ashley Cordelia, a couple of 48 Hour Filmmakers from Orange County, CA. We discuss Scott's film, The OCD, which tackles the topic of being one's true self living with Autism and the difficulties it poses emotionally and socially. On a lighter note, we discuss the budding creative and professional relationship that Scott and Ashley share, the differences in social climate between the Seattle and SoCal filmmaking communities, horror movies (70s horror movies in particular!), and how the 48HFP has helped develop their careers.

We also gush over our love of horror movies in general, and in particular: Evil Dead 2, Dead Alive, Sam Raimi, Peter Jackson, and Bruce Campbell.
In today's episode, Kris Flink and I talk with Trina Griffin, founder of Rising Reels, a non-profit organization designed to provide young, aspiring BIPOC filmmakers an opportunity to learn their craft and develop their creative voices. Additionally we discuss our love of the shows Mythbusters, Bones, House, Nip/Tuck as well as the movies Rogue One, South Park Bigger Longer Uncut, and Black Panther. We also gush about Hugh Laurie, Jordan Peele, Ryan Coogler, Michael B. Jordan, and Boots Riley.
