For today's episode, I had a bit of serendipity. I went to the Produced By conference this summer and happened to sit down next to today's guest. Marquette Jones is a filmmaker, an attorney, a professor, and she hosts a podcast called Directing Magic, where she interviews female filmmakers. As you can imagine, we had a lot in common, so I invited her to come to my table and have a conversation. Not only did I learn a lot about her and her career, but we also talked about podcasting and what drives us to do this, and it gets to be very inside baseball. We interviewed each other just enough for both of these hosts to be uncomfortable. Enjoy. For her full bio, go to my website, which you can find at: www.theotherfiftypercent.com.

Marquette Jones is from Youngstown, Ohio, not far from where I grew up. She’s an alumna of NYU’s graduate film program, but before becoming a filmmaker, Marquette was a public interest attorney in Oakland, California. Her work includes her most recent film, Forgiving Chris Brown, along with Round on Both Sides, Tunk, Heroes Wanted and Streets 2 Suites. She has also produce many other projects from short films, to commercials and PSAs for the Women in Film program. When she is not busy writing, producing, or directing, Marquette indulges her obsession with color through her ever-growing nail polish collection. In this conversation we get into everything. When it comes to filmmaking, we learn her thoughts on grad school – the good and the bad, her strategy for submitting to film festivals – they are detailed, how she writes, directs and staffs up for her films, and some writing advice she received from Spike Lee himself. We talk about her winding path from law degree to a creative career, her advocacy for women in film, and we even learn about her desire to read minds as a child. There is a ton valuable information and Marquette is a joy to listen to. If you want to hear more shows like this, rate us on iTunes and let us know. - - - - - 6 Key Takeaways 1. At grad school take advantage of the community and the equipment. Don’t wait be assigned a project. Make as many things as you can. 2. When staffing up for a production, only hire people you don’t have to watch. 3. Your eyes should be on the thing after the thing. Always be prepared with your next project. You must be ready when opportunity strikes. 4. When writing ask yourself, “What would really happen in this situation?” Use music to put yourself into the mood of the characters. Write a draft from each characters perspective. 5. Movies made by women filmmakers make up a small percentage of what makes it to theaters. Support your women filmmakers. Listen to Marquette’s podcast Directing Magic. 6. The film festival circuit gives you something to talk about and promote on social media. Being accepted legitimizes your film, brings awareness and attracts potential support for future projects. - - - - - Follow Marquette Jones Twitter @Marquette_Jones Facebook.com/marquettejones.filmmaker Marquette on IMDB Hotcomb Pictures Directing Magic Podcast - - - - - Show Notes (Ep 14) The ins and outs of Directing the NYU thesis film, Round on Both Sides.
