We have a great discussion with the leading voice for smartphone movie making in Russia, Maxim Mussel. He’s made three feature films with smartphones and launched the only festival for mobile films in Russia.
Incredibly, Maxim was inspired when he made a short film which won an award at the International Mobile Film Festival in San Diego, California in 2014. He was so impressed with the festival in San Diego that he went all in on smartphone filmmaking. He launched the Filmmaker’s International Festival about four years ago. He’s written a book and has been teaching mobile filmmaking.
What we discuss:
* How the pandemic affected both our festivals* Storytelling in film* Developing your story before shooting* Teaching filmmaking for mobile* The need for good experienced actors in mobile filmmaking* Submissions deadlines for their festival* Special effects in mobile films, does it work?* The many instructors for mobile filmmaking today* Selling your mobile film

2021 has been a great year for our podcast. We passed a couple of milestones like our 100th episode. But another milestone is how many wonderful guests we’ve had on the show. We also introduced our listeners to a new series called “In The Weeds” with Jason C. Marshall discussing story structure and formula for narrative screenwriting. The series aims to help filmmakers make unforgettable captivating films.
In our episodes with Jason, he brings up his partner in filmmaking: Julian. In this episode, you meet Julian and enjoy a wonderful conversation about filmmaking, best microphones, character development for screenwriting and how the character’s perspective literally drives the twists and turns of the story. We discuss Christmas movies and how they’ve gone from children’s stories into the the horror genre.
What we discuss:- Microphones and audio capture process- Storytelling with your characters in mind- How crucial character development is in story- Developing concept from ideas- Get “Failure” out of your mind- Jason and Julian’s new podcast and 24 films in 2022- The best moment of 2021 for each of us

What is NFT? It’s a Non Fungible Token and it authenticates your digital media as yours. This is one of the most attractive features. The other attraction to this is that you can build in a royalty to your art and media. If it gets sold, built into the code is that royalty so that you are paid as the original creator.
Filmmakers are accustomed to royalties but most original creators are now able to gain the benefits of affirming ownership and receiving royalties for your work online.
There are ways you can save an NFT, of course, just as any art or photograph online. However, collectors or buyers now have a way to verify they own a genuine work of art.

Making movies can feel intimidating. One way to reduce that overwhelming feeling is by understanding there is a process which will guide you into believing in your idea. Coming up with an idea for your movie will lead you into creating the concept. You may need to go back to your idea as you develop your concept. But here’s the magic though. It’s while you are developing your concept that you may realize it’s not such a great idea! And isn’t it great to find out before you start writing a screenplay? Episode 113 of the “In The Weeds” series with Jason C. Marshall is a great conversation that brings us back to the origin of film and story development.
So don’t start writing your screenplay before you have your concept. Go back and get a new idea if you need to. If you write a screenplay and get lost in in the process and find yourself not finishing what you started, it doesn’t mean you failed. It could be that you didn’t first develop your concept. Jason and I discuss the difference between idea and concept and why conceptualizing your idea is so important to succeed. This series can help you make some incredible and memorable films!
