Bankhead Film Festival 2025

For posterity sake, it is 530 on the East Coast.
It is 230 on the West Coast.
It is the 8th of March in the year of our Lord,
2,025.
Watch says 8.
We are good.
All right.
Leave it to me.
Season.
The only watch, basically, doesn't have the date.
Season 15, episode 35, 74 times.
You have been welcome to the clubhouse podcast.
Not live today.
We are live to tape.
And we are audio only, which for me is the benefit of what we do.
I have often said I have the perfect face for radio.
Normally we are your one stop shop for all things, sports, entertainment, pop culture, and
pro wrestling.
However, this is a very special episode that we are doing tonight in conjunction with the
city of Garland.
It is the first annual bankhead film festival sponsored by the Garland Cultural Arts and
the Association with the Garland Independent School District.
We have worked with the Garland Independent School District for how many years now done.
By the way, I got Don and Alex are both here with me.
I think about it about, I remember before the pandemic, like 2018 or 19.
So we are 7 right now.
I think you have actually been doing it longer than I have been on the show.
That is absolutely true.
I remember doing one where fate finally met Kelly.
So it was in 2017.
So a long time.
A long time.
A long time.
A very, very long time.
But this is something that's brand new, because this is not just Garland High School.
And for that matter, not just high schools.
This is a very big deal.
We are at the Plaza Theatre on the square in downtown Garland tonight.
And spoiler alert.
I've already seen the films.
I'm a judge.
I don't think you're alone in that.
That's true.
We are actual industry judges for the Garland Independent School District.
And we are for tonight as well.
Thank you to the Shubords for having us out.
Here's how this is going to work.
We've got a number of young filmmakers.
We're going to be talking to tonight for the next.
We'll call it an hour.
And then, for coming up at six o'clock, the films will begin.
There are two hours worth of films.
Then after the films, there will be voting.
We have already voted as industry judges, but there will also be audience votes.
That's right.
But I always like because you get a different point of view.
We see a bunch of movies.
We do the reviews.
We do.
What's more entertaining?
And nothing says that better than an audience participation.
Agreed.
Because I've often said, like, I don't critique film.
I review movies.
And that's kind of the way I like to approach it.
But we already have guests.
But before we get that, let me just see what we've got from.
Because this is directly from the program.
This festival was developed to support young filmmakers in our community by providing them
a place to screen their creations to an audience.
We are honored that they are willing to share their art with us that are inspired by their
bravery.
So, come on out.
If you haven't, you can check out the website in all nine Don, go for a go.
You know me later.
Bye-bye.
Go do your thing.
We have our first filmmaker with us right now.
I love that I can use the word filmmaker with this show, absolutely.
Because when you say the future of film, this is literally the future of film.
Joining us right now, tell everybody who you are, get right up on that thing, my friend.
Dominic.
Dominic.
Tell everybody how old you are.
Nine.
You are nine.
That puts you fourth grade.
Third grade.
Third grade.
Okay.
Okay.
So he's already accomplished more by this.
Yes.
I've published before a decade on this planet and you and I have combined in a lot longer
than that.
So let me ask you because you did make a film for this and it is called No Before You
Go as part of the elementary school division and what I really liked about all of the
films from you guys is they were all kind of working the same themes.
So tell everybody about your film.
So my film was about how to conserve water with the bathroom, mainly to toilet and it's
about how you can reduce the amount of flushes with your toilet to save more water.
So I find this interesting because I'm old.
Right?
It's okay.
You can say it.
What made you pick that specific way to save water?
I realized that most of the films from my friends, they were all talking about doing
stuff from other places, like saving water from brushing your teeth and the dishwasher
and other things.
But the toilet wasn't really a common aspect, it wasn't a common topic in the deep.
So.
Okay.
I mean, I'm going to be honest, it's the last thing I'm thinking about in that particular
moment.
That is fair.
But the other part about this that I'm fascinated in the scope is that that's a brave
place to go.
Yeah, everybody else is like, yes, let's keep like, it's pretty, let's do, but for you
to be like, no, let's do this at home, that takes guts and I applaud you for that one.
How long did it take you to make the movie?
I mean, the film takes around two minutes to film it, how long can it take you to
to actually film it?
Okay, that's not because a lot of people don't understand for a two-minute film, it takes
a lot longer than that.
Any kind of short film takes a lot longer than a lot of people think.
What made you want to make a movie?
It was really an assignment.
Okay, but was it part of a class that you chose to take or was this part of your overall
class?
It was part of science class.
Okay.
Overall.
All right.
Did you have fun doing it?
I want to keep doing it.
Maybe, maybe, maybe.
I'm all right.
That's, hey, you know what, do you don't want to commit to anything?
I get it.
What kind of movies do you like to watch?
Ummm.
You have a favorite movie?
Not really.
Not really.
Really, if I wanted to watch something, I can, you're just watching.
You just pick something at just spend a wheel and wherever you wind up at that you watch.
Yeah, unless I don't want to watch it.
It's also fair.
What kind of stuff do you like to do?
Making stuff out of cardboard,
playing with my legos, making it a lot.
Legos cool.
I'm a big Lego guy.
You watch Lego Masters?
I used to.
So that ever comes back on?
They did something for Christmas,
but that's all they did last year.
They didn't do any of season.
So if you got to make another movie, go ahead.
I apologize.
My microphone was dead.
Yeah, we had to change batteries.
What about the cardboard and creating things?
Did you get to watch some of the other movies
that were made like the stop motion from other areas?
Yes, I usually get ideas off of the internet.
First stuff like that.
I'm kind of into like warm machines, like tanks.
So usually I try to recreate those.
I just take a quick look at the pictures.
And then I go, OK.
So I don't know that they've seen any of the other shows.
That's what I was thinking was because there
is a couple of like stop motion and animation movies
done at the middle school and high school levels.
And I was curious about seeing like, because I'm not going
to lie, though, if it's yellow, let it me.
It's still ringing with me.
So you definitely left an impression with a video.
But at that same time, I would be curious to see that development
like taking your interest and continuing with the program
might be very curious to see what you could come up with.
Um, I don't know.
There isn't a lot of, there aren't a lot of topics
that I would like to film for.
But if it's for a PSA for water conservation,
I'd probably make a few more.
All right.
So there is a lane at this point.
And we also have your dad sitting right here,
but this he doesn't want to talk.
But we want to recognize that he's here.
Are you excited for tonight?
Yep.
To see it on that, she's not big.
That screen is out there.
Yes.
See, this is the one they're going to use behind us.
This is the one they're going to use later
for when they give out the awards.
That's why they put us, they hit us away.
They didn't want us out there in front of everybody,
but that's all right.
All right.
So we're going to go let you get ready.
Go get pictures and then write carpet and stuff.
All right.
It is called nor before you go.
This is Dominic Jen.
Thank you so much for hanging out with us.
Thanks Dominic.
All right.
Don, if you'll show them where they need to go.
And we'll, because we got more people to talk to.
Come on in, you are listening to the clubhouse podcast.
We are live to tape tonight from the Plaza Theatre
in downtown Garland for the bankhead film festival,
which I am keeping a picture of the logo on the table
because for some reason, I want to call the,
I want to substitute one of the vowels.
And I just, I have a brain lock when it comes to that.
All right, we set, we good.
All right, tell, get right up on that microphone.
Tell everybody who you are.
My name is Viviana Bullet.
And, be cute, don't pollute.
I, yeah.
Correct.
All right, so tell us how old you are.
I am nine, I love it.
That's, that's, you know, we have a lock down.
We are good to go, yeah, I do fractions.
No, I still don't do fractions.
I'm 51.
I'm just saying.
So we were just talking to Dominic about how all of you
guys kind of work the same theme.
It was all about water conservation.
Where did the idea for yours come from?
Um, well, me and my mom, like, worried about it.
And, um, we made it up together as we went along.
Oh, so you just kind of like, all right, this is where we're,
this is where we're going to wind up and we're just going to go and,
and we're going to wind up there at some point.
Yeah.
All right, that's fair.
That's a pretty cool process.
Now, like, we know where our destination is, but how do we get there?
That, that is very interesting to me on that one.
It's kind of how they write law and order.
They always write the end first and they write backwards.
Well, she is the one that absolutely nailed the BQ don't pollute.
I laughed hysterically like that girl knows how to deliver her.
I was, I, I giggled out loud, more than once myself.
Uh, how long did you take to film it?
What?
Like, how long did it, when you, when you, when you started filming it,
how long before you stopped filming?
Oh, I don't understand that.
Um, was it, did you take a full day to make it?
Oh, um, no, like,
see, probably like 20 minutes.
Oh, wow, I just did it.
And then you had to do everything else with it
by putting everything, like putting stuff on it and stuff.
All right, that's cool.
You see, she's doing the one-take Jake thing.
She's like, yeah, it was 20 minutes.
I had my lines.
I'm a star.
I'm good.
Move and write along.
I don't have that level of talent.
That's why I'm here.
I'm like, I'm like, course easy.
I need, like, 17 takes before I can get,
we can get close.
Now, I know that this was part of an assignment, right,
for your science class.
Was it, was it, is film something you're excited about?
Um, yeah.
So, something you want to keep doing?
Because, you know, I mean, all over the place,
there's, there's school that have filmed apartments,
which we didn't have growing up.
What are your favorite kind of movies?
Oh, um, I don't really have a favorite kind of movie.
Is there a favorite movie period that you like,
like, if you just want to watch a movie and you know,
I'm going to watch this movie because it's my favorite.
I don't have the favorite movie, but I have a favorite, like, series.
And that is, that's, um, Doogie Camille, uh,
Oh, okay.
Hold, excellent choice.
The, the newer version of Doogie House,
or a D, that was on Disney Plus for over a minute.
Uh, was it one season or two?
Uh, I think it's two.
I think they did two, right?
Yes.
Is that, I know things.
I'm smart.
One was shorter than the other one.
Yeah, they stored in that second season, didn't they?
What are the things you like to do?
Um, I like to, um, I don't know, probably like color.
Good, good.
No, easy.
I know.
I can't draw.
My wife was an art major, so she has all that talent.
Uh-huh.
My stick figures are world class.
I'm not going to lie to you.
Uh-huh.
But yeah, well, you have to turkey, too.
You can still do the turkey.
Well, I always, I always get the fingers too close together,
then it looks just like a guy with a mohawk and a big nose.
Oh, there you go.
So, you know, are you excited for tonight?
Yes, I'm super excited.
You see how big that screen is?
Your movie's going to be on the screen.
It's the size of that curtain right there.
And we've already seen it, so we know what to do.
So, and you might, you see what's over there?
All those trophies?
Whoa, I can either confirm nor deny it.
If one of those has your name on it.
I don't know.
They won't even tell us.
That's how secret it is.
So, I'm told that it might.
That's why we had to do this like a week ago.
And I almost forgot, and then I got an email like,
hey man, you should watch these movies.
And I was like, oh, I probably should.
So Sunday night, I had to turn off everything else.
It's a long weekend.
It's the first time I've been done ahead of time on an assignment.
I'm probably before me.
Probably before me.
Yeah, GIS these represent.
All right, we're going to let you go to the red carpet
and get pictures and stuff, all right?
Okay.
So, BQ don't pollute will be on the agenda tonight.
Go have some fun.
Thank you.
We are live right here at the Plaza Theatre downtown Garland,
on the square.
I love this place.
This is a really cool thing.
Gorgeous theater.
It's a little, man, it's cold out there.
I went out to start loading the gear in the car.
And I was like, what's happening right now?
This doesn't make any sense.
Oh, let's see, order we doing now.
You have to fix the mic there.
Hey, there's a t-shirt I don't have yet.
Have the emphasis on the word yet?
I believe there's multiple orders in flight.
I'm just saying, I'm just saying, because I have ordered mine.
And if you go to not only our social media,
but the social media for sunset lounge,
D.F.W. You can order your own film club T-shirt for this year.
A film club film club T-shirt.
Well, it's still film club.
It's film club quantity squared.
There you go.
Too much, man.
That's why I keep it simple.
Joining us now, you guys introduce yourself, please.
Hi.
Get right up on that thing.
I'm a mayor.
Hi, I'm Penelope.
And my name is Madeline B.
And you are bringing what to the table tonight.
Uh, here I am, uh, an animation.
Ah, okay, yes.
That was a really good one.
Yeah, really was well done.
Uh, there was a lot of stop motion.
But I always like to watch the hand drawn stuff, too.
This, you guys really captured,
I guess the only way for me to say this captured is genre.
Because you had that anime style to it.
But there was also kind of that throwback
that I do talk to a lot of voice actors in one of my, my side hustles, right?
And in this age, there's a lot of focus on,
we have to, I think they call it clicks to get the syllables, right?
Where you guys kind of like, no, let's just throw it all the way back.
Like, we know the characters talking.
But it just gave me, when I was a kid, anime was, you know,
it was so quickly done that they just got the lines out there.
And I kind of like that when it's not an exact science.
Was, was that what you were going for?
Because it's got to be really complicated to hit every click.
Yeah, right up on that microphone.
Okay.
But I mean, I mean, like I said, it gave me that feeling.
I'm so, I mean, I'm old school. I'm ball tron.
I'm star blazers. I'm, you know, things of that nature.
Gatch a man.
And it just brought me back to that place.
What made you want to do that particular type?
Uh, I've always wanted to do animation.
And I really love art.
And my dad grew up watching, like, anime and Filipino stuff.
Okay.
Do you have a favorite anime that you watch now?
Uh, no.
I only watch like the movie.
That's fair.
That's still counts.
I think we've got another new one coming out next week.
Another new anime films coming out next Friday.
Well, before we got anywhere else, I just wanted to clarify.
Like, one of the things that's really cool about getting to see these film festivals and stuff
is when you come across one that almost makes you forget you're watching a collection of movies.
Yeah.
And that's what y'all really did with this one.
So I was curious with the balance here as far as like,
if you had to say, this was my signature on this or this was my signature on this,
what was it from that film that you were probably most proud of?
Uh, probably just like each individual plane at the time.
Yeah, sure.
Oh, me.
Oh, um, well, I didn't really contribute much to the animation, but I was, uh,
I was very proud of how she ended up animating it.
Well, what did you do for the film?
Oh, I ended up editing the film and creating the music for it.
Which there's just as much work there.
Yeah, great.
You know, people of a people kind of they tend to get a grip of what it takes to animate,
but I don't think people really understand the labor that goes into it.
Yeah, where you prepared for that kind of thing when you started editing and working music
and putting it together, or did you go, holy cow, was ever there that moment of,
I am, I am in way too deep right now.
Yeah, not in the second one.
Did it, but it has to give you more of an appreciation for what, what work goes in.
Is it something you want to continue to pursue?
Uh, I think I want to keep doing it for fun, like just on my own time.
Well, and what do they say?
If it's long as you're having fun, you'll never work a day in your life.
Yeah.
You know, I just, I, I am so, at any time, I get a chance to see anything hand drawn.
I'm here for it.
Because there's a lot of CGI out there.
There's a lot of the 3D modeling right there.
Now, I'm flashing back because sometimes I'm a little slow on that one.
You said you created the music for it.
What do you mean by create it?
Well, I, when you said you created, did you sample music from it?
Did you play music for it?
Um, I, I just, I didn't really have a sample.
I just, I just, I just, it just came out really.
I just just started playing and just all.
So it's all or it is original music.
That's, that's, that's, I think that's where you go.
But what I was reading too is I wanted to hear how you made the music.
It was, I don't really, I don't, I didn't really have a process.
I'm not the biggest musical person honestly, but like, I'm not either.
I'll ask you in a different way.
Did you do it on the computer?
Did you do it by instrument?
I ended up using garage band and I just like, just cycle through the different instruments
that I could use and like, eventually just chose some and it all just worked out really.
It is amazing what garage band can do.
Oh, yeah.
It's insane.
Like when we're in garage band?
Can we get a check?
Well, Apple, we're happy to help.
Let me rephrase.
No friends.
But like when it first, when garage band first started, it was more meant for
easy recording where you could just record.
Now with garage band, I can just hum a melody and it will put everything around it,
which is, and this is even before the A.I. craze.
It was like I could hum a melody and then it would put a bassline and a percussion line to it.
It's, it's, but how much of that did you rely on garage band versus you just doing it?
Um, it was, it was a, it was a half and half.
Get right up on that thing.
Oh, yeah.
It was mostly like an half and half.
It was, I mostly relied on garage band, but I also like, did do some of the stuff myself.
It was, it, it all, I didn't really have a sample to go off of.
It was just me just finding the right melody and tune for familiar effects.
Now, when you were using a through garage band, were you putting a keyboard through it?
No, I, I, I just use just only garage band like,
now, when you're used, because some people can use garage band as a recording tool.
Yeah.
Like they would hook a MIDI up to it.
I don't know, it was just, you think it did fall in the hole for a, on you.
No, it was, it was, it was, it was mostly just me just, I didn't, I didn't have any
media to go off of already.
It was just me just using, like, I didn't have a sample or anything.
I didn't use an actual keyboard or like an actual bass or anything.
I used all the garage band soft, just the tools that were built in.
The tools that were already used.
I'm assuming, did you edit first or did you start the music first?
I ended up starting, I started to edit and then once I got a feel for what the project was,
I'm like, oh, this is what the music should probably sound like and this is like,
it was, it was sort of like a sad, sort of sort of sort of story.
So I edited it in a more sad way and I'm like, oh, I should probably add some sort of like sad,
you sad like a compassionate music to us.
How much leeway do you give your editor?
Do you go, here's the footage do a thing or are, are, were you both very hands on together during
the editing process?
Uh, essentially, I just made each clip and so she could put it like together.
Okay, so it really was, it was a collaborative thing but just not necessarily at the same time.
Yes.
How much, how much of the music would you put together before she heard it?
Um, it was pretty much one of the, one of the very found a tune that I ended up liking,
I immediately showed her and said, hey, do you think that this would be good for the film?
And she would say, yes, no, and then I would, if she ended up saying no, I would go back to the drawing board
and see if I can find something else that she liked.
So with going back and forth on those, how many times would you say you had a meeting
where she would come to the table and have like, okay, I have these shots and you'd be like,
that's great. I have these tunes. Like, how many times do you feel like you had to meet before
you got to a final product?
A majority of the times, every single time we would come out with something new, we would be like,
hey, what do you think of this? Do you like this? Should we change it? Should we keep it the same?
Like, what do you want to do with that? Really?
Is this the first time you two have worked together on a film?
Yes.
Will you work together again?
Oh, yeah, sure.
All right, okay.
All right, we are getting the high sign that you guys have to go take pictures and stuff.
So that's what I'm being told.
That's right. So thank you guys so much for sitting down with us. We've seen the film.
So we know how it's going to go, but we can't wait to see it on that screen out there.
All right, go enjoy your evening. We are at the bankhead film festival.
We want to send a shout out to the sum of the
institutes that are involved, the Austin Academy for Excellence, the Beaver Technology Center
for Math and Science, the Coil Technology Center for Math and Science, Garland High School,
Hudson Middle School, the Kimberly Academy for Excellence, Lakeview Centennial High School,
North Garland High School, Saxi High School, and South Garland High School.
So pretty much, if you can throw a rock from this place and hit a school, they're involved.
All right, we have new guests. See, that's how quick that happens.
We're a well-loiled machine. After 15 years you think we have to
find a regular in the business. All right, get right up on those mics,
everybody who we are. Hi, I'm Josh Kama. Hi, I'm Alina Andrade.
And what's showing for you guys tonight? Our film called late nights late nights.
That's got that. There's a couple of scenes in that that I was kind of like,
because you know, I don't do scary stuff. You were worried. I was a little bit.
I'm not going to lie, but tell everybody about the film, because I thought it was a really cool concept.
Uh, it's a film about uh, writer's block, drawing from when I was actually writing it.
Hey, what is they say in the necessity is the mother of invention, right?
So was it like multiple times if you're sitting now, going, uh,
I want something else. It's literally everything. But it's a girl sitting on her couch.
It looks like she's trying to write a research paper. Yeah. And it's just not happening.
I want to know about it. I don't want it. Is it okay if we spoil it a little bit? Sure.
There's a vision that comes to her in this.
Where did that come in the process? Because I thought that was kind of genius.
Uh, well, I mean, do I need to uh, ending? Uh, it's kind of what I just heard. Well, it would happen. Like, I wish
this would just write itself. And then I could go to sleep.
But uh, yeah. But like, infinitely relatable statement. No. Well, there. But the way it happens. A message is given to her.
How long did it take you to put that together? Um, well, this was writing. This was just an assignment for my class. So just
I'm just about that particular element. Yeah. Because there is a message given to her over clips of things.
Is that something you found or did you have to make that from scratch? Uh, I made it from scratch.
There's not really cool. Uh, just the idea of how long did that take you to put together?
Uh, not too long. I found a website that like, you can search up really particular words. And then it'll give you a
movie clip with that word. And then just I
word it and then put it all together. I'm having one of those moments where I'm like, I remember
Atari having a stick and two bucks. Wow. Yeah. Okay. Now, I'm fascinated about the writing.
But I also want to hear from you on this one because this definitely had to be a full group effort.
Yeah. I think Josh kind of like he, he kind of wrote this group. We all kind of like what like we
edited it together and we like directed it together and put it to a true group effort. Yeah. That's also
you guys are ready to see it in here tonight. Uh, yeah. Pretty excited. Talk about that process.
Like, do you have to enter it and then get selected or is it selected for you for something like this?
Wait, can you elaborate? Sure. So like you make you make it as an assignment for class, obviously.
How does it get to the to the point where it's shown at this film festival? Are you guys the ones
that submitted and said we want to be part of this or did teachers come to you and go, hey, we're
going to put this in? I think that teachers like he gave us a choice really like it was between
either doing this assignment and wanting to be in this festival or like doing a different assignment.
And we were confident that like we could make a film for this. And yeah, we made a film for this.
You see the size of that screen. Yeah. Are you ready to see it on that screen? That's pretty
that's kind of one of the cool things that Garland does that and that's part of like where we're
part of it every year. Because we love just watching you guys because you know, we're old and
you know, not not to get off my lawn thing, but there's no way that a program like this could have
existed back then because it would the expense alone because there was nothing digital. It was all
film. Oh, I was going to say because the people that actually put the effort in
at the many schools. No, no, no, we had stone tablets. It was fine. Leave me alone.
Where'd you put the abacus? I still have one. But I just think it's cool that you guys get to
express your art in this way. Is this something you want to continue to pursue?
I think most definitely maybe not like a full-time thing, but like definitely in high school,
I want to get better and make more films and stuff. You have a favorite genre to work with?
Either one is? I think just like drama and just making things, just using our imagination.
If I could go back to the... Yeah, please.
Yeah, it's just something like debated like pursuing, especially like in this era of our lives.
Just like should I continue on something that I enjoy like this?
Yeah, I'm sorry, really.
For you, is it more of a, as long as I still have a passion forward, I want to do it, but the moment it
becomes work, I'm done. Yeah, definitely. That just, if I have to do it when I don't want to,
like you want to do it. Like you care enough to fight through kind of a... Yeah, it's hard to see
whether that's how I feel or not. But that's art, right? Absolutely. You know,
is there are there any filmmakers out there that influence you that you like a lot?
Um, oh my, like different directors like Greta Gerway and, yeah.
Then she's got another big project. She's fixing to start working on for Netflix.
Oh, she's doing Narnia. Oh, okay. For Netflix.
Excellent choice of Greta Gerway goes like, let's start with a word winners and then work our way back.
But with having written for late nights and been involved on that,
you feel like if it was still a passion for you, you'd rather create the story and let others film it
or would you rather do everything through at this point?
I definitely enjoyed writing it. I think at one of the things I like the most is editing.
We've been learning more and more stuff about the Mary, like in our classes here.
Oh, from your prose of beautiful tool. Yeah, it's, it's just really fun learning all the time.
The only thing, it's, it can get frustrating. I'm not a big fan of the editing process.
Just because
math, I mean, having to line everything else up right and have your, have your soundtrack set.
But from your pro does make it a lot easier.
I once had to create a short film in power point.
10 minute short film.
It was a nightmare. And then they gave me from your pro and I was like,
you're going to have to clarify. Do you mean making it or did you make something that was a nightmare?
Yes. Okay.
All right. So Don's saying that we've got to give them the, the high sign.
Go get the right. Have a great night. Thank you guys. Enjoy. All right. Thanks for joining us.
We are at the Plaza Theater Downtown Garland on the square.
Make sure that you're following us on all your social medias. Make sure that you look up
sunset lounge DFW on Patreon. That is our network free membership for all the basic shows.
Got Mike Reiner's got a show. Should be in groups around there. Our friend Ziggy's got a show.
It's interesting for everybody on sunset lounge DFW. All right. We've got more guests. That's how we do this thing.
You're rolling. All right. You're right up on those microphones. Everybody who you are.
My name is Carolyn Hernandez. And I'm Cole Davis. And which film you're bringing with you tonight?
I'm bringing party roaches. Party roaches. I do remember. Oh, roaches.
And then I worked on the making of Arcadia 9.
Ah, yes. The documentary. I died really dug that one because I'm a big fan
of behind-the-scenes stuff, which is why me and physical media are so agreeable.
But one thing I want to talk to you about. Yeah.
Wait, wait. Do you want to talk to her? Or do you want to take her to task, basically?
We are we both spent time in South Florida. Okay. So roaches are what we call palm
metal bugs because they're the size of your head. Why roaches? We were trying to figure out
something to do for our stop motion. And I had bought 150 fake plastic roaches off Amazon.
Just on a whim or are you trying to force everybody else's hand? I can't care what the rest of
the story is. I am in a week by this. I wanted to scare my brother and I couldn't just buy
like two or three of them. I had to buy a whole pack. So I had just a bunch of them. That's over a
gross. Okay. I've been waiting. I'm not going to make it any further. I'm expecting a no answer.
Did you ever see Joe's apartment? No. Okay. It was the original MTV film
based on it was a gerio conal? Yes. Moving into an apartment that was rent controlled
and the roaches take over. But that's basically all you do because the moment you're
started, I had to make that connection until you said the title on like that's exactly that's it.
That's it. I can add to it. Yeah, I really wanted to see like the inspiration going from there
to where you wound up. But it was very funny. I very much enjoyed it. Very much enjoyed it.
I still have the roaches. Well, I would hope so. Like, thanks a little later.
But how many? That's one of those you're you're hanging on. Let me see if I can find this on Amazon
and Amazon goes hold my beer. You want 150 of them? No, no, no. What I wanted at the end was like a
thing of like six roaches didn't make it through filming. No roaches. No roaches were harmed
during the film. It dedicated to the memory of Freddy Roach. No. Oh, Freddy. Oh, the great Freddy Roach.
Yes. That's an old reference. You're going to give them all names, but the little name tags,
especially for the party. Yes, little punchball in the middle. You know what? I want you to stick with it.
I want to sequel. No forget. But now for you doing the documentary on the making it was,
now if I if I understood correctly, does every class do an anime and this was the one for this
because there was a bunch of stuff on the walls. Yeah. So the teacher of the current
nation coast, he's this is the second year there. So this is a new thing he's trying. We're like,
it's the entire animation to class to come together to make one big feature film. Everybody has
a war roller. It's like script writing, storyboards, animation, concept design. We have a whole
website dedicated to like just the process of how they made all that. And I just went in there and
like, hey, can I film? They're like, sure. This said this is the second time they've done.
Yeah, well, this is part of the second year the teacher has been at. Oh, okay. Is this something
that you would kind of like to see as like a tradition where you get to do behind the scenes each
year and maybe include it when they finish the project? Oh, I would love to.
Not my last year here, so I'm probably not real. Well, you could you could you could start a legacy
and hand it off to somebody. Each drew a good everyone starts somewhere. And where is that project,
currently? Are they, are they still going? Are they almost done? I mean, it's almost the end of the
school year. So, so that was their basically semester final for winter. So they started, I think in
October, I think. And they started working. And then we, they finish. They're done with that now.
They didn't really finish all of it, but it was just the, it was what it was at the end of the
semester. Yeah, as that is a semester. And then they piled all the clips together,
threw in there, gave me all the clips or the documentary. Then I just edited it and then
submitted in here for all the actual clips and images and everything. How stoked are you
to ask to see this in here tonight? I am stoked. Have you been to the plaza before? I have not.
So, when you, what was your first time when you walked in and you saw this room? I was like,
I cannot believe I'm here. It's, it's really kind of cool. It's, it's a gorgeous,
an old school theater. Like, from when I was a kid, I know it's a long time ago. And they had
a zootrope. I get it. Yep. You know, if you watch the fun sounds, that's a documentary.
But just in a room like this, like, there's actually two screens. Because the screens you
guys see out there, that's where your movies are going to show. After they show tonight,
after the voting, this screen behind us is going to be the one that they put all the names and the
winners and stuff on. Oh, that's cool. So, and that projectors like right up there.
It's the one I want from my house. Oh, wow. Now, I had a curiosity with you getting to showcase
your hard work on that giant screen. What is your hope to go from there? I don't know. I just,
I just want to make people laugh. That's a good place to start. I dig it. I dig it. After this,
I'm trying to become an animator. I'm a visual fact animator. And documentary was fun. So,
I was like, let's just do this too. Let's just explain my horizon. Maybe I'll be good at this.
What kind of style influences you from an animation standpoint? Lots of anime. Like, just the
flashing lights, everything. Hi, impact, fight scenes. And then just what Marvel and current CGI
has been doing with all their explosions and just mainly explosions. I like explosions. I like it.
It's stuff exploded. I'm here for it. Well, it's more fun that way. And as long as you walk away
and slow motion as it happens. Yeah. But you have to have just a little bit of ruffle for the hair
in the clothes. Otherwise, can you really tell that it was there? Yeah. That was like,
was it in my spy where they're walking away? And she turns her head and Batista turns her head right
back around. Yeah. You don't look backwards. All right. We're getting the high sign already. Good
mercy. For you guys to go and enjoy the evening. Best of luck to you. We can't wait to see how
we don't know how this is all going to turn out. We voted, but we don't know what the results are.
So we're going to find out when you guys find out. Go keep being stars. That's right. That's right.
That's right. You are listening to the clubhouse podcast. Our normal show every Thursday night
seven Eastern six central for the people that are in the room that can hear us. We are on look at patreon.com
look up sunset lounge DFW. You can check us out every Thursday night live. And that's all I can say
because now we've got more people. Get right up on this microphone. Everybody who you are. I'm Aaron
Curtis. I'm a through story at Nagu. And what are you bringing with you tonight? We have our film,
our musical film, getting the band back together featured in this film festival this year.
That we may may not have seen before. Of course we have. I love the confidence. It's just
yeah, you have. We heard you were judging. Yep. I saw this. I was like, oh, I remember this one.
You're in a disaster too. Yep. Yes. We did indeed. Or I know you weren't there this year.
Where you know, it was just me flying solo. So we're back around again to see this.
I don't want to say in a bigger room because I feel like the auditorium is a little bigger,
but this is a legit theater. Is there a different feeling for you this going around?
Well, it's not, it's not a school thing, so it makes us feel real official.
Well played. I mean, don't, I'm going to need that on a t-shirt.
It's not a school thing, so it feels more official. And we have that recorded. So
is there is the same level of nerves as there were back in May? Or is it more your more
it's a little more old hat now? I'd say I'd say I feel about the same. I think there's a little
less nerves because for someone who is who will be singing about tax evasion on the screen in
front of hundreds of people like that. Oh, why didn't I think about that? Wow. It wants,
you know, it's actually after that happened, I had people at school in the hallways come up to me
and be like, you know, you're that tax evasion guy, right? And so I think after that,
I'm just fine with it, so I definitely have less. I mean, there's worse things to be known for,
but that's true. That's where you just reply with. Yes, $5 for a signature $10. That's right.
You know, I should have done this so we can all be appearing at it. You'll have to talk to my
agent. I have biology. So that was last year's project. Yes. You'd like to talk about this year's
yeah. I mean, like, I don't know which, but we work on multiple projects each year.
Yeah, which one's going to be shown in May? Because we're going to be there again. I think
both of us are submitting the ones we just made, like we just finished making them because we
worked on separate ones. We weren't together this time, but I think we both have something really
solid, so you'll get to see those in May. You know, that brings me to another question.
You said you didn't get to work together. Do you pick the groups or do your instructor's
pick the groups for you? Because I don't think we've ever asked that. There's a different way,
like every time, and it has not favored us this year. Oh, that's what that was because when you
said you worked separately, I saw sadness. Oh, no, it is because we've been waiting all year,
and like we have so many plans, but like we have like 3% of over the control of like who we
get to work with and it sucks because we've been waiting and we didn't get all year. Well, but you know,
that's got some new digs this year too, didn't you? You moved a little bit. Oh, yes, yes,
got some new digs. We did. How's that feel? Not being on top of each other because I came
to the school a few years ago, and to talk about another project I was working on, and I was like,
you can fit 20 people in here, maybe. And then Schubert showed me the room that you guys were
moving to, and I was like, oh, it's pretty awesome. We have the screening room. We have the
the big classroom and editing lab. We have a library now as well as a storage room and a place
for charging. Like we have all sorts of stuff now. It's great. Now we talked about this in May,
but we're going to talk about it again because it's been almost a year. Got a bunch of movies
getting ready to come out. What are you looking forward to? That's a tough question. I think it's entirely
possible I said this last time, but I really don't know because I don't keep up with all that.
See, I saw Captain America last weekend. It's good. Not my favorite and credit scene.
But it's good. It's a good film. There's some deep cuts in it, and it actually connects itself
to a couple of other Marvel films. But there's some deep cuts in there that as a fan,
I was like, I never thought I would see that story put to screen, which I thought was kind of cool.
Any difference now from back then, have you discovered any other film makers that have influenced you?
Is there anything that's caught your eye that's like, oh, I might want to take a look at that?
I haven't actually had this influence yet, but I'd like to get more into like why Sanderson stuff
because I really like the cinematography of his films. I know that.
There's an astro city is last one. Astro city? I really like that film.
It's pretty good. It's it's it's it's Wes Anderson, so it's a little weird. But I go to go to
YouTube and look up Saturday night live to the sketch of if Wes Anderson has directed a horror film
and it's wonderful. Very, very funny. I want to look into things that Jennifer Lame has edited
because she edited Oppenheimer and I saw that and then I recently like started looking into her stuff and I am
and always will be an editor and so that really like. See, we were just talking about the, I don't know that I could be an editor because
it's very painstaking. I think it's awesome. I just I couldn't do it, but we've heard that one before.
I want to hear why do you like it? Yeah, that's a great question. Okay.
See, if my film teacher used this, he is going to kill me because he gave me a lecture on this and I denied it.
Oh, he's going to hear it. Oh, yeah. He actually we charged them subscriptions though.
See, the day that he was talking about it, he was like, who likes editing? Is it, and then he
points at me because I raised my hand and he's like, is it because you have power? Because you like,
you feel like you don't have power in other parts of your life and this and it's you. And I'm like,
oh my god, why would Brett? Is that the most shooting thing I've ever told you? I'm sorry.
It's like that might be the most shoot work statement of all time. That was really funny,
but the truth is I do enjoy getting the shape of the film because the truth is even if
don't laugh at me, are it? Because even if you have your story and you have your script,
even if I wrote the script, the editing is what's going to define the field of the movie completely.
Absolutely. Absolutely. I love getting to do that. Because no, it would shot to use it.
What moment for the maximum impact of the scene? Absolutely. That's why it gets an Oscar category.
Yeah. But yeah, I would not did debate that because up andheimer,
that's what I did. It's one of the best movies I've ever seen. Oh, for sure.
It's one of those. I thought it was brilliant. I don't know that I could sit through it again.
Because I feel about so intense. Because it's so intense.
Now you guys have already seen this on a big screen. Is it going to feel different tonight?
I like that. I love this place. The question is, are you going to live,
sing back to the screen? I'm not going to be doing that. Not tonight. You know, I want to clarify.
We have experience with it. You actually, the room, but the answer to you choir. If you've never
said it. You're not old enough yet. I don't think anybody in here is old enough. But there is
musical choices in that film where the Inwood would show it. Choices is the word. The S7
choir would show up and sing along with these. We assume that's who it was. But they knew
every word. You, I have never seen audience participation on the level we saw at that night.
Oh, and I've seen the room. I've seen the room. I've seen the room now like eight times.
I ball bouncing and jumping in there. Yeah. All right. We're getting the high sign for you guys.
So you can enjoy the evening. They start firing these things up and about.
Correct. Yeah. I've got 45 minutes so they fire these movies up. Go enjoy yourselves.
My friends. We'll see you guys in a couple of months. Yeah. Awesome. All right. We are live. We have
the clubhouse podcast and have been for many, many years. Just cross seven hundred weekly episodes.
See, this is one of those things. This is an audio only medium. That's right. But you see the camaraderie
coming. Okay. The two minutes for cross checking what just happens. There was a milder
rotation of this speaker. Oh, okay. All right. That's all. But you see the camaraderie as we have
two students leave. There's the high five. There's the hugging because everybody wants everybody. That's
your seat. I love it. Sorry. I already was pumping up on this one. But tell everybody who
you are because this audio only. So. Hello. My name is Peter Aaron. I'm a student at Garland High School
in sophomore. And I'm here for the film caught in her web. Me too, except my name is Alex.
Boom. See, smacks are in the head with the mind. I have one eye in no depth. I'm assuming he is
really half blind. That is an absolute truth. I apologize. We have a third person. We have one
Alex to another. We have a third person. Same here except man's Chloe Shockley. Another film we
have seen before. I laughed very hard. Yes. And I'm so glad it was a blatantly stunt spider.
Because spiders. No thank you. Hard pass. Spiders mistake. Hard pass.
As long as that's legs, I can handle it. That's all I got. But so. I will say watching this. I very
much like your film. Like it's one of those like you see the setup right away. But it's like I
really want to see how this plays out. That's the thing about this film. Now we talked about this
about nine months ago. What is it like to now be part of a festival again with this film?
It's really, really, really exciting. Like so when we first made it, I thought maybe it was like a
little bad. But when it was actually when it was actually in the screening room, Mr. Schubert was
laughing his butt off in the background and were like wait, this might actually be good. So we submitted
it and like everybody started everybody else started laughing in the room and we were like oh wow.
And so go ahead. So here it again. I'm excited guys. This is like a huge boost for my ego.
Hey, we all need that everyone's in again. I think hearing a full audience of like how many
people was at least 300 probably more laugh at my film that was just something like something stupid
that I had made you know like I very much felt like a kid like I didn't know what I was doing
at all because it was my first year in film. But it was it was an amazing feeling and what I
what I love so much about caught in her web is that it really is proof that like it's not the
it's not always the technicality or the cinematography that matters as much as the story telling
and the story itself. And I think that's that's what's really strong about this film.
That is an incredible point. Yeah, that is absolutely incredible. Well let's talk about too.
The last time we all got together, it was just y'all. Talk about the dynamic difference now
because you have multiple schools involved and you don't really know like when you're with
the same high school you kind of know all the players. In something like this there's a whole
different world involved. Does that give you more nerves as you come into something like this?
Get right up on that microphone. Anyone bewer. They're all looking at each other like something
they're going to talk because well I will say how much we just now work for more. We're going to
just go to Brock Paper Scissors our way into talking. No, I will say I've already seen a
student. I'm in choir as well and I've already seen a student that I recognize from
another choir so I'm certainly scared to have this movie screen again to a bunch of other high school
students that I may or may not come across again. I feel nervous about their reactions for sure
but just knowing that there were so many there were so many garland high school kids last time
and families that thought it was funny you know I'm just trying to let it play out.
And this I think with this room like when we were in the auditorium much that's a huge room
and you said they're probably I mean you're not wrong. There's probably 300 people. Now take that
saying group of people and put them in a space like this. It's the noise is going to be awesome too.
Helping with the nerves. I'm here. I'm here to help say my blog.
But I'm thinking of this with Garland you have the screen that's set back on the stage where
this one's right up front so you have more of a group. The screen that's in the other side
that curtain is where your films are going to be. The one behind us is where what they're
going to be doing with the awards afterwards. So we have to take all this down while you're watching
the movies. All right. It's going to look really weird. So I have a really silly question.
Does it seem you had mentioned give it time? Okay. You had mentioned about feeling like it might
have been bad or less than what you wanted it to be. Did you always intend it to be a comedy?
Like I feel like it was but there were certain elements that I could see like
people are going to expect a comedy. Let's just have the spider murder everyone or something
along those lines. Was there ever a discussion like that or was there am a wig? What story was going to be?
I mean it was pretty it was pretty normal. Like we had followed the script but honestly
so for like the first part we just kind of we didn't follow the storyboards at all. We like didn't
follow a lot of the scripts. This was when I was there. We were just like out and like a field playing
with the spider and just shooting a bunch of random crap and I don't know what happened when
they were filming inside the house and like when he was like walking around and stuff with the spider
hand in hand. We're all looking for all the things to go through. I think that is the I think
that's a solid description for all of you with a spider with a spider. That's the size of my car.
But do borrow a phrase that we're used to selling the big. Sell the bit. Sell the bit. Sell the bit.
I've seen you want to say a couple of things. What do you want to jump in on?
I want to say that it did sort of something about a joke but we also wanted to add in some more
serious aspects but not exactly serious just in a way to enhance like comedy.
Like taking a really taking a really dramatic look. I just a joke because it's not a joke to him.
Especially towards the end of it. But that's exactly what I was hoping to hear and it's such a
brilliant move to make sure like if everything's silly the whole way then it's just silly but when you
give it those beats it's really really impressive what y'all did with it. Thank you so much. No as as an actor
I will say I was pretty committed to the bit. I think I I think I fell a little bit in love with that spider
unfortunately he made out with it. I did not I did not I did not we have a flip.
That'll be an extra on the DVD.
No okay okay we don't don't don't don't don't don't don't we don't I decided that it would be
funny to have the clip of me kissing the spider dramatic you do for the art. I think that was a I
think that was a spectacular addition to the film. You do it for the art. I don't think it was a joke.
It was a joke Alex I swear to you. We're gonna edit this up I just use this is the director commentary for it. I think we'll get oh no
I'm just waiting on that sequel. It's just caught in her web of life. I don't go into my happy place
I'm going to my happy place I'm going to my happy place. Do I need to leave them? No you know what you kid
but I'd consider it I can say oh no I'm not really kidding half of my stuff is a joke but then there's that moment where it's like
That might work. So you guys ready to do this all again a couple months?
Because we're coming back we're gonna be there. That was a heavy side away from the mic. I just want to clarify that I could still hear in my earphone
All right we're getting the high time for you guys to go enjoy the evening so thanks for coming back
We can't wait to see all the reactions and we're gonna do this again a couple months with you guys
All right
The club outside cast live to tape tonight from the Plaza Theatre in downtown Garland on the square
I love downtown Garland. Yeah, it is really it is historic
Did you know that this is also hat city us that there are two there are two
Stets and factories in Garland. I
Learned to that last fall
All right, I'm so glad that you guys sat down because I was running out of things to say
Go like get right up on those microphones, everybody who we are
I'm rena there we go now we're getting somewhere. All right
I'm Lily Lily who's shirt matches mine. Thank you very much
Hello good evening. My name is Genesis Crow and what films or films are you bringing with you this evening?
I made party roaches. Our second party roach appearance. I was a part of of the what's in your bag
Okay, friends past the end. Okay, and I'm here for in every corner. Oh wow. Yes
Yes, it's just I'm gonna turn down the game because we're gonna some feedback Alex talk
Yeah, and we were talking about it before as far as y'all learned old enough to know Joe's apartment
But when you with the roaches a immediate happy place for me going back to when I was probably about the same age
They are now
That's when that it was the original MTV movie. It's okay. I was in college. He wasn't so okay
I didn't point out I am not afraid to say how old I am doesn't bother anymore
I'm old you can see you can see it. You can hear it when he sits down and he groans
Yeah, it's about right
I am sitting down currently. I want to talk about the documentary
What's in your bag?
What got you there like what it was like you know what you know what I'm gonna do
I'm gonna find people and I'm gonna make them show me what's in their back
That's literally what it is
Get right up on that microphone just take one you're getting away
Me and my group members. We were talking about like when you're first like trying to think of a documentary
We were talking about stuff and one of the group members
He was like we should do something like in those magazines where they like have the celebrities open up their back and show up in the end
And we kind of just like we went over it and we all just agreed that like that was the best idea
Because we thought because we could really good documentary about like would be interesting
I'm glad they didn't ask me because you've seen my bag back there
That would be an entire two-hour documentary on some
Because I carry a lot of stuff. I have to there would just be a whole lot of if Santa were real telling you
Dude, you need to come down for me was more like Felix the cat, but I don't that might be too old of the reference
Little bit Felix the cat had a bag and he could just pull he pull a car out of his bag if he had to
In every corner
How excited are you for you for this tonight? I am super excited
I mean we would talk it on the all afternoon about this room
And how just insane it's a gorgeous theater
You're actually there's a curtain behind you because that's where the screen is this screen is going to be showing all the award stuff later
Yeah
Yeah, see the they're the weights at the bottom is what lifts it up and down
Keeps it nice and pretty, but the screens on the other side of that
Talk about nerves how you feeling
Shaking I'm so nervous
But is it a good nervous like are you excited or are you worried? I'm like so excited
Because there's there's a lot of work that's gone into all of these especially with you three
It's really really amazing like he was talking about before like this stuff didn't exist when we were in high school
Nope we would have loved to be able to so it's like cool to get to see the good fortune
You all have to participate but seeing the effort that you all put it into it
Decloseless like I was working at the movie theater
That's about it closest I got was throwing it getting thrown out of the same movie theater
You got thrown out of my theater. I think so about my much later
Double dip because by the time well no because by the time you would have been
Yeah, I would have moved out here by the time you were going to that theater
I can say you threw me out. I'm just saying it where I wouldn't do it there was there's no venn diagram to that
valid
But with all of those it's I am happy to hear you're excited not worried
Same for both of you or is there a little bit of worry?
I think there's definitely a little bit of worry so I know like at least with all the homes get right up on that thing
Because I can barely hear you. I'm like you're fun. Sorry
With all the films I'm in I'm always worried like oh, well the audience like and stuff
But I think we'll do pretty good so I know I'm like our class people like this
Because I seeing the extent to which you all got to as far as who you were talking to to get that kind of footage
Really shows an initiative and I commend everybody that worked on that for that one
150 roaches
150
I don't blame it
It was I thought it was really really really really fun like
Funny story. I actually had plan that's like that film like the summer before my sophomore year like I'm really passionate about film like I think
One of my say is like I love him
I
And I got I agree with you a thousand percent
But I had wait that story the summer before my sophomore year and like
Because I knew because of the thing that my teacher does Mr. Schubert
Mm-hmm. It tells you the curriculum before so that summer I was like, you know what?
I need to think about everything I want to put this year. That's the way to do it. Yeah
I am shocked because I can't even think of planning three weeks ahead let alone a year
That's
But I think without with it but in a film in a film program you really really have to because you only have a finite amount of time
to go from ideation to execution and you know
You're within the semester
We got across the finish line
It's I would almost be borderline obsessed with it honestly because I am OCD
So that level of organization and timelines and project management
It would consume me. Do you find yourself at points where you're like look
I have to walk away from this for a minute because it's just getting it's like in it's living rent free in my head
Yes, yes, yes. Oh, I like I think after I've done filming
I have like instant regret because I feel like once I get a shot and I'm like okay
Let's stop filming. I got this shot that I need and then I go to bed. I'm like
You get to that point of like it's got to stay where it is. It's how hard is it to watch it back on something like this
Do you do can you remove yourself from it or do you find yourself on oh
No, I like that, but oh maybe not that like are you able to separate and just enjoy the moment?
I mean, what it's just enjoy it because I'm like I did my best. There you go. I did my best.
I want to circle back real quick on this one. So we've heard the 150 roaches the planning a year ahead
The group discussion to getting to what's in my back to then the execution. I want to hear more from
In every corner. Thank you. That's just very very about that the idea to execute because these are three completely different kinds of films
We have a documentary. We have something that's more light-hearted, but this one's a little bit
I guess for lack of it. It's more serious
You're right about nothing. Yes, definitely making it every corner was definitely an adventure, right?
Like what you guys were talking about like making sure to get the right shots and me too
I also have OCD so every single time like I want to get you know this perfect shot
Because I'm actually the cinematographer for in every corner. So I have to make sure that everything is like, you know
According to the storyboards and also according to the script and also like shooting something that I know the audience could recognize
And even more telling a story with cinematography, right? Because the way that we shoot things there's there's stuff that like can be like hidden
Meanings or like to show off like this is important and the other rest is not, you know, it's it's so
In that scope you're talking about working on focuses and
This is our critical. This is our background. This is what we're focused on this is auxiliary and getting all of those right
That's a really fascinating part of it. I want to hit your watch. She thinks you're talking to her
Okay
Is S I R I lit up
I was just basically
I was like he's gonna wind up with someone on his phone. I mean, I need to stop and
Because she'll pick up at the exact wrong moments between her and the one that's on the
The other one the one that sounds like my name. Yeah. Yes, put an extra letter on your name
I did both drive me nuts. I have to mute him in my house when I'm working
But that's interesting coming from the cinematography aspect on that, though
Do you start off with this is what we need the shot to look like or are you trying to adapt with the team you're working with?
Yes, definitely adapting with the team I'm working with since
In every corner like it says down there there was like
Four people as our group right so
Meanwhile, let's try to like you know take all these shots. I wanted to get the perspectives from the people that I was working with
Especially with my director Arthur. I think you guys talked to them right. I'm sure we did
Probably back maybe last year about not tonight
It's all it's all a blur at this point time to construct
Yeah, but Arthur he's so creative like I'm not trying to glaze or anything but like he's like
But I got that reference. I just assumed
I'm at the age. I just roll with it. Yeah, but you were saying but I just love working with people right because
Sometimes like the way I see things like it could just mean to me, but if another person could see what I'm seeing
That definitely helps especially with like the audience reaction and what you know
We're gonna see on the screen so definitely yeah working with people is
Is amazing. I love working with people. Yes
Now when you shift into like a documentary do you have less of a focus on the cinematography?
Because you're working on the content or what was the main
hurdle you felt going through that with what's in your bag?
I think like the main issue we had was it like it took us a little while to get people to actually interview
So that was been hard, and then we did have some issues similar to hard to be wise because like
It's like some stuff that was like we had a lot of issues with stabilization so that did prevent a problem
It's like with interviews you can't retake them so it's like you have to like get it perfect the first time
We definitely struggle with that a little but it's close to the pain that you can the first time
All right, we're getting the high sign to let them go. That's our last guest of the afternoon
So and we know your biggest problem was throwing roaches at each other, but
They're catching them
How do you wrangle roaches
By the fake ones very carefully. Okay fair enough. All right, you guys go enjoy the evening. We're so glad you hung out with us
Sure you get your shots on the red carpet. It is almost that time my friend. Yes, it is top of the hour of these films kick off Donald Donald
I'll help you guys out
We're gonna do this again with y'all in a couple of months. So be ready
We are so thankful to be asked to be part of the bankhead film festival this evening
This is the first thing is the first time we're doing it. I can't keep I don't want to say first annual because it's not annual until it happens a second time
That's true
That always confuses me. This is our inaugural journey the inaugural bankhead film festival
Which I said right every time
Thank you very much. Yeah, I
Could even get it right on the calendar. That's all right. We know what you meant
We're getting what what's going on. Oh

All right, we're we are gonna wrap this up because we're gonna get ready for the festival itself
