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.

Episode 154 with Joshua R. Lastine of Lastine Entertainment Law PC in Beverly Hills, will hopefully provide you with some of the assurance you need to create films you can distribute, and help keep you out of legal trouble.
Many smartphone filmmakers and indie filmmakers may not be aware of the obstacles that can come along with trying to get your films distributed into film festivals and streaming services. After all that work, you want to get it seen. Maybe even earn some revenue.
I sat down with Josh Lastine, an entertainment attorney in the Hollywood industry. We went over the basics to help clarify some misconceptions and information that we hope will help you navigate the filmmaking and content creating landscape from a legal perspective. 
We discuss copyrights, AI, music use, and more. Join us for an enlightening discussion.
