This week’s episode of the world’s only interactive talk radio program covering Digital Production, Post-Production and Distribution is filled with great information and entertainment designed for the independent filmmaker or industry professional.
Join host Larry Jordan, and co-host Michael Horton, as they talk with:
Cory Trépanier, Producer/Director, Campside
Productions
For years, artist and filmmaker Cory Trépanier has explored
some of the most wild places in Canada. Few have walked in these
landscapes. Even fewer have captured them on canvas. Now he’s going
further into remote and breathtaking arctic wilderness to
experience, paint, and chronicle a land that might never be the
same again. Cory spent three months with his team filming "Into the Arctic
II" about these challenging and sometimes dangerous adventures
in over a dozen arctic locations.
Jonathan Handel, Of Counsel, Troy/Gould, and
Entertainment Labor Reporter for The Hollywood
Reporter
Jonathan
Handel is a regular on The Buzz -- keeping us up-to-date on
where the industry meets the law. Jonathan has been covering the
Hobbit controversy in New Zealand -- will the film be shot there or
won't it? Why are the unions there so worried about it? Why would
anyone object when a multi-hundred-million-dollar film wants to
shoot locally? The issues are complex and have an impact on the
general malaise of runaway productions. Listen in as Jonathan gives
us the complete low-down.
Simon Chappuzeau, CEO, Home Base Lounge
We shift locations this week to talk with Simon Chappuzeau,
CEO of HomeBase Lounge - a place in Berlin where filmmakers
can hang out. So, what happens when a bunch of filmmakers do
nothing but hang talking? Right, they started Digital Film Camp, a
networking / financing / distribution / free-form sort of thing.
Perfectly understandable. This week Simon explains it all to
us.
Tom Bennett, CEO, Pond 5
Pond 5 is the
world’s first open marketplace for stock video footage, and they
tell us it’s a better way for video professionals to buy or sell
stock footage for use in productions. Recently, they announced a
new program for stock footage that we want to learn more about.
We'd tell you what it is, but then, it wouldn't be a surprise when
Tom tells us about it on the show!
