SBP Podcast Mobile Filmmaking

High Quality Short Filmmaking with Ryan Camp

Ryan Camp Films has a notable vast library of video tutorials online. When you search how to’s for audio, mics, videos and filmmaking, his videos usually come up on the first page. There’s a good reason for that, he’s really good at explaining things so the non-experts understand. That’s because expert’s are not the ones who search for help and Ryan knows that.
Join a gripping, fun and inspiring conversation with myself and Ryan discussing what you can do to make better short films, and perhaps better feature films, too. Ryan uses Adobe Premier for editing and shares some tips for the post production process. 
In Episode 169 recorded December 8, Ryan and I discuss two of his short films. 2AM was shot with iPhone and was part of the International Mobile Film Festival in San Diego. Trophies was shot with a DSLR. Ryan shoots and stars in both films.

Fade In To Film: Why Film Production is A Rush

Episode 168 is our bi-weekly panel discussion. This episode was recorded December 6, 2023.
It’s a rush! If you have the privilege to work on an indie film and you don’t feel the rush, something’s not right. Joey Min and Ryan McDonald sit with me and discuss our first filmmaking experience and why we loved the challenge. We were thrilled to do it again and again. We share what to expect and how to get started, if you’ve never made a film before. When we say, “Just do it,” we know it’s easier said than done if it’s your first time.
We share some funny mishaps on set, from vacuum cords and high rise stunts, to ants in pants—laugh along with us. We also discuss not so funny at all news, “Filmic Pro, No More?”

Before you pull your phone out of your pocket to film, you should have a story in mind. Our panel discusses where to get ideas for stories from, write a screenplay and make that movie!

 How we generate our ideas for films
Differences between short and feature film stories
Why indie filmmakers don’t sell their screenplays
Algorithms for film marketing online
Will AI help producers predict marketability of a story
What inspires filmmakers to keep making films
