There is a new podcast on the block for creative media producers called MacMediaTech. I was honored to be invited by the host, Kenn Bell, to be a guest on the premiere episode a couple of weeks ago. The other two guests were Paul Del Vecchio, and Matt Jeppsen. This is how Kenn describes the show:
Every episode will have four filmmakers discussing three topics. One about the Mac, one about Media (film, TV, Web) and one about filmmaking tech.
If you are a Media producer that loves Macs and Tech, this is the podcast for you. You can find the podcast at Graphic Planet Creative, or subscribe in iTunes.
If you are involved in post-production, or in filmmaking in general, you should lend an ear to That Post Show. Host John Flowers invited me and Scott Simmons on this week’s show to talk about some post-production goodness. John, Scott, and I have a great discussion about the current state of the NLE software landscape. We talk about some of the projects we use Avid Media Composer, Final Cut Pro and Premiere Pro for, and why we choose one program over another based on the needs of a particular project. We all take turns airing some of our major grievances with some of the software and hardware that we use. It’s a good show, so give it a listen.
I am producing a new audio podcast entitled Film Dojo. It is a film critique show featuring Ramon Santos and Mike Spence. You can listen to the first two episodes at filmdojo.tv, or you can subscribe to the show in iTunes. Here is the show description from iTunes.
In this weekly, in-depth cinema review and analysis show, Ramon Santos and Mike Spence take look at the movies that shape our lives in a no-holds-barred fashion. In these discussions, Mike and Ramon critique aspects of the film and entertainment world that other shows ignore by going head to head with the actors, directors, artists and studios that bring us some of the best and worst movies. They also take it a step beyond traditional critique by sparring with the way design elements, visual effects, editing and cinematography come together to create a work of art. Whether discussing mainstream Hollywood motion pictures, or low budget independent filmmaking, Film Dojo Takes Movies to the Mat.
Here are direct links to the first two episodes. Give the show a listen, and let me know what you think.
