In this episode 130 I invited my pioneer colleague Max Schleser, in Melbourne, to share some uplifting history of 2011 versus today. Where do we go from here? This episode is based on the news late last week that Filmic Pro has been acquired by a company and it has moved into a subscription based app. The pricing is out of touch with mobile filmmakers worldwide.
Some things we discuss:- What Filmic Pro has done to grow mobile filmmaking- Mobile Filmmaking efforts in 2011 by pioneers- Some options available and what is to come
