Sparksradio: Rusted Film Report

There are lots of great reasons to attend your local film festivals, and seeing amazing films that you don’t always get a chance to see on the regular should be reason enough! Just Eat It – A food waste story (Official Trailer) from Grant Baldwin on Vimeo. But for me, I’d have to say the […]

Of everyone I know working on the local film scene, Mike Wendt is my favorite. He’s undoubtedly one of the most helpful and friendliest people you’ll ever meet, and his positive attitude is paying off! Many of us know that if you want to work in film, it’s a long climb up the ladder, and […]

I must admit I had a lot of trouble cutting the video of my interview with Special Effects legend Robert Kurtzman. He had so many interesting things to tell me, it was difficult to decide what to cut…so I’ve decided to post the interview in its entirety! If you still haven’t seen the video though, […]

 I don’t want to take anything away from the main focus of this story, which is centered around the lives of three very inspiring women, but filmmaker Derek Hammeke’s documentary Finding Home is also an incredible look at a country with a terribly sad issue. What’s even scarier? Cambodia may be a long way from […]

Ever get the urge to travel? Maybe tan on the beach in Florida? A hike through the Alps…or a trek through the streets of an underdeveloped country? For Writer/Director Bart Van den Bempt, that’s his favorite kind of vacation, and it doesn’t matter how he get’s there, whether it be a rickety plane flown by […]

I’m assuming (or at least hoping) there are a few filmmakers who listen to this podcast…and if you don’t, well…how would I know, anyways? That being said, how many of you have ever entered your film into a festival? Maybe you’re not quite there yet (no worries, neither am I) but I’m sure you’ve dreamed […]

Think of the craziest place you’ve ever traveled, and then prepare to be topped! And no, I’m not talking about Daytona Beach during spring break. Seasoned travelers may tell you they’ve been “all over the world,” but I bet that few of them have told you they’ve been to the seventh continent… You know, the one […]

What does it take to start a movement? The same thing as everything else: an idea! I know, complicated stuff, right? And the very concept of a movement is something that moves us, and that’s exactly what happened to Mark Johnson…only his movement actually started because he stopped! When it comes to public transportation, we […]

If ever you were approached by the Devil, say, knocking on your door, or maybe at your workplace…or the bathroom floor of a dive bar…Try to remember every story you’ve ever heard involving the Prince, and what usually happens…Other than the one where Charlie Daniels wins a fiddle, not much good ever comes from making […]

If someone asked me how to describe Pierre Michel, I would simply respond with one simple word…”No.” And that’s because a man like Pierre needs no introduction. His work speaks volumes. At times when inspiration can be tough to find, look no further than “Fire Flower,” or “Omega,” and once your mind-gasm is blown, I’ll […]

Among a writer and director, JJ Winlove is many things…He’s a New Zealander, living in Australia! Mind. Blown. But above all else, he’s a natural born storyteller who loves to write, and he’s determined to share his work with us…So much so that he’s even willing to isolate himself in a summer home just to […]
