Low-Budget Rebels: An Indie Filmmaking Conversation with Josh Stifter – Détails, épisodes et analyse

This weekend I had the pleasure of chatting with actor and filmmaker Jamie H Jung about all things independent filmmaking!

Jamie and I were both part of the the Rebel Without A Crew: The Series process but in very different capacities. Jamie was an actor in Alejandro Montoya Marin's movie Monday; and on this episode, we compared experiences of what it was like to be on reality TV. Jamie also discusses his adventure in producing his first film The Wedding Night which will be premiering at the Manhattan Film Festival on June 22.

We also discussed the challenges of adapting your project with no money, finding a character, and learning your process through life experiences.

This week I had the pleasure of chatting with writer and director Rob Mabry.If you look at our film's synopsis, you can instantly see that my film Greywood's Plot and his The Legend of El Chupacabra have some things in common. Watching the movies, it's interesting how unique both movies are as well!

Rob and I discussed his rise from early days of playing with cameras, to the break in his filmmaking process and coming back to it through 48 hour film fests and making a plethora of shorts, to eventually making his first feature film. We also chat about Rob's preproduction process, finding the shot in the moment, messy effects shots, and the fun of creating monsters with practical visual effects.This and so much more!

 Make sure to follow @thechupacabramovie to find out more about Rob's movie.

Happy Monday!

And we're rollin' into it with a brand new podcast episode. Liz Manashil is a wonderfully different type of director than the folks I usually get on the show. Her two features, Bread & Butter and Speed of Life, are fascinating character studies that are not only low-budget inspiring but a type of movie that makes me want to work outside of the box. She also was the kind of candid chatter that I LOVE to have on the show. She discussed growing up as a precocious and quiet child, the anxiety that comes with filmmaking, and balancing being a parent with creating art. She also discussed going to film school at USC, working with actors, and the benefits of doing shorts as well as features.

All of this and so much more.

Make sure to follow her on twitter @LizManashil and check out her films Bread and Butter and Speed of Life, available now on Amazon and other streaming sites.

Also, head over to speakpipe.com/lowbudgetrebels and leave me an audio message! Ask questions, leave indie film reviews, and have your voice heard!

Cheers,
Josh

This week, I have the pleasure of hopping on skype to talk to Troma Entertainment's Director of Sales and Marketing Arlo Sanchez. We discuss our love of movies, how Troma and Troublemaker have effected us, how he got started at Troma, and tell tales of brushes with our favorite filmmakers. We also discuss movie theater experiences and much more!

This and so much more!

We're back for the finale of our trilogy of winin' and cryin' podcasts. This time we're about 5 glasses in and getting a little silly.

We also have a BIG announcement on this episode.... ENJOY!

It's Monday, and that means a brand new podcast!

This week, Daniel and I discuss Daniel's acting career. Josh also discusses what made Rebel Without A Crew great but what's going to make going into Greywood's Plot without a reality crew easier. They also go way down a rabbit-hole into a nonsensical metaphor and try to talk about what life is like after Rebel Without A Crew: The Series.

This and so god damn much more!!!

Remember to share this podcast with your friends. Tell them about the patreon, Flush Studios, our youtube, the screening coming up on August 22nd, and everything else. Thanks.

Daniel and I got together for the first of a three part series where we discuss our past, our present and our future as we sip on red wine. In this episode, we dive deep into how are childhood influenced my film making style and the way we go about writing. We also discuss the movies that really showed us how to make films and why they were so important to us.
We also discuss Dan's beard.

Movies, wine, and dads having a good time! Tune in next week for Part 2 of the Wine and Whine series and hear more of Josh and Dan's plans moving forward with Flush Studios.

HERE'S A THROWBACK EPISODE!!!
It's been a while since I've posted a podcast, so I figured I'd give you all a treat and post an episode of the show that I really loved that was, until now, buried under the $1 patreon subscription. Mike has since this episode gone on to win an Emmy and I've finished a feature film, so it's cool to dig back into the vault before these successes.

The conversation with Mike continues from part one as Josh tells a story about attacking ducks and being very awkward in front of mowers. Then, Mike goes on to tell the most amazing story of proving his manhood by nearly dying.

This and much, much more!
