Fade In To Film: New Tech for Smartphone Filmmakers and Sound Design

Episode 160 is our bi-weekly panel discussion. This episode was recorded September 27, 2023.
The iPhone 15 Pro has features that can help you meet the criteria to qualify getting your feature film into Netflix, and maybe win an Oscars. The new Blackmagic Camera free app is packed with features but I lament it’s not available for Android smartphone filmmakers. We talk about Joey’s awesome sound design with his iPhone web series shot with an iPhone. Plus more!  Panelists in this episode: Ryan McDonald and Joey Min. Learn more about all our panelists: http://fadeintofilm.com

iPhone, AI and Camera Apps with Arthur Mikheev

Episode 159 of the SBP Podcast is jam-packed with tips. I had the privilege to speak to our friend in Moscow, Arthur Mikheev. Arthur won the First Prize Award with his short film, War is Not A Game in San Diego’s International Mobile Film Festival’s 2021 edition.
Arthur teaches smartphone filmmaking with his school, Pocket Film. Just last week, he shot a video that shows the beautiful potential of what you can do with the new Blackmagic Camera App released less than two weeks ago.
We discuss:
AI
Camera apps
Storytelling
Festival categories
Smartphone film and video
Arthur is also a musician, and we share a clip of one of his songs, Blank in the opening. Link to his music in the show notes.

Fade In To Film: Your Brand and Filmmaking

Episode 156 is our biweekly panel discussion. This episode was recorded August 30, 2023.
We tackle a few topics with our panelists, but we begin with Levi’s well informed message, as a union member, about the WGA and SAG-AFTRA strikes and how they affect indie filmmakers. We discuss what self branding implies and the shift it’s taken for creators, artists and filmmakers during the popularity of social media. This topic led us to discuss self-distribution as an individual and as a community. Could community distribution be the next new thing for indie filmmakers and creators? I share a bit about white label OTT streaming distribution.
We congratulate Levi Austin Morris for winning an award for his mobile feature film, Paralysis. And Ryan McDonald shares his upcoming film festival in Ogden, Utah.
The panelists: Ryan McDonald, Levi Austin Morris, Jason Rivera, Joey Min.
