Send us a textStepping into the spotlight this week is our very own Max Fosberg, fresh from his graduation at Seattle Film Institute. In this deeply personal conversation, Max opens up about the transformative journey of pursuing film education in his mid-thirties—a decision that initially felt "almost silly" but ultimately proved profoundly rewarding.The discussion reveals fascinating insights into the practical realities of student filmmaking, where location often dictates creative direction. "I think the first thing that I figured out for each idea was location," Max shares, explaining how his vampire film "Nightstock" grew from having access to a park, while other projects emerged from available spaces like a brewery. This resourcefulness represents the true spirit of independent filmmaking.Beyond technical skills, Max reflects on how film school reshapes one's relationship with cinema itself. He now studies lighting with particular fascination, noting how flat lighting in CGI-heavy productions often diminishes visual impact compared to the masterful shadow work in classics like Sidney Lumet's "Fail Safe." The conversation explores the vulnerability required when sharing creative work, the collaborative magic of production days, and how acting experiences enhanced his ability to communicate with performers.Perhaps most moving is Max's recognition that the relationships formed during this journey matter most. From his Film Institute cohort to the broader Seattle film community, these connections have become the true measure of success. "It's not about the movies," he reflects. "It's really about the relationships." As Max prepares for new adventures in Los Angeles, his story serves as powerful inspiration for anyone considering their own creative leap—regardless of when in life that call comes.What makes a truly successful filmmaker? Listen as we explore how passion, persistence, and people create the foundation for meaningful work in this challenging industry.Support the show

This episode was recorded live at e-flux on September 19, 2024. The event, hosted by the African Film Institute, featured a screening of Lumumba (2000, 115 minutes) by Haitian director Raoul Peck, followed by a conversation between Feza Kayungu Ramazani of Centre D'art Waza and anthropologist Natacha Nsabimana.  Feza Kayungu Ramazani is an artist and researcher based in Lubumbashi. She is a member of the Power to the Commons project and Another Roadmap of Arts Education Africa Cluster (ARAC), which is a network of researchers and practitioners engaged in collaborative research revisiting the history, politics, and alternative practices in arts education through literature. She is also curatorial assistant at École du soir, administrator of Centre d'art Waza, and a critical writer questioning images of African beauty and exoticism. Her research on African values, creativity, ancestral practices, and technology aligns with a desire to reinvent the conception and conservative function of museums in the Democratic Republic of Congo. Natacha Nsabimana teaches in the anthropology department at the university of Chicago. Her research and teaching interests include postcolonial critique, musical movements, and the cultural and political worlds of African peoples on the continent and in the diaspora. The African Film Institute aims to create a home and a place of intimacy with African cinema in New York, through developing gradually and organically a viewing program animated by fellowships; a growing library; an active writers' room; and an expanding catalog of recorded dialogs. The African Film Institute draws from the visual cultures that view cinema as an evening school: a popular information system in the service of education, aesthetic experience, and public dissemination—employing a methodology concerning the use of cinema's collective production, and investing in viewing methods informed by different uses of time, visual and textual histories, and social struggles and hopes in mutuality between their own locality and the world at large. The African Film Institute is convened by Christian Nyampeta and hosted by e-flux Screening Room.

Muchos recordarán “Buñuel y el laberinto de las tortugas” la novela gráfica de Fermín Solís que narra las vivencias de Luis Buñuel durante el rodaje del documental "Las Hurdes, Tierra sin pan" en Extremadura y que se convirtió en una película de animación, multipremiada, que llegó a estar en la carrera a los Oscar.Ahora, Fermín Solís vuelve a Buñuel y en compañía de Oscar Arce, director del Luis Buñuel Film Institute, en Los Ángeles y Esteve Soler, presenta “Buñuel y los sueños del deseo”. La nueva novela gráfica se centra en la época en la que Buñuel y Jean-Claude Carrière preparan el rodaje de Belle de Jour en 1967, una época especialmente interesante en Francia y todos los problemas que trajo consigo el proyecto con Catherine Deneuve. La película se convirtió en una de las más célebres del dúo, y ganó el León de Oro del festival de Venecia, pero según cuentan los autores, el proceso fue complicado porque Buñuel estaba obsesionado con que iba a morir y quería que su última película fuera muy especial. Mientras que Carriére no veía factible la adaptación y no quería que su maestro, al que tanto admiraba, acabase su carrera con una película mala.  Sobre esta novela gráfica que llega hoy a las librerías hablaremos esta tarde en La Torre de Babel.Además, pasaremos un muy buen rato con Seb Falk, profesor en la Universidad de Cambridge que publica en España con Ático de los Libros ‘La luz de la Edad Media' un ensayo en el que a través de una figura real del siglo XIV, el monje John Westwyk explica los avances científicos en la edad media. El libro sirve para romper muchos mitos y alejar de este larguísimo periodo histórico de casi mil años el prejuicio de considerarla como una época de oscuridad.

Omar Berrada is a writer and curator whose work focuses on the politics of translation and intergenerational transmission. He is the author of the poetry collection Clonal Hum (2020), and the editor or co-editor of several books, including La Septième Porte, a posthumously published history of Moroccan cinema by Ahmed Bouanani (2020), and Another Room to Live In: 15 Contemporary Arab Poets (2024).

Renowned actor William McNamara, an alumnus of the esteemed Lee Strasberg Theatre and Film Institute, has left an indelible mark on the entertainment industry with a diverse career spanning over one hundred and sixty-five film and television appearances. McNamara's journey in the world of cinema began with memorable roles, including that of Joel in the teen movie "Dream a Little Dream" (1989), where he shared the screen with Corey Feldman and Corey Haim. Shortly after, he showcased his acting prowess in the Bette Midler film "Stella" (1990). The nineties marked a period of exceptional performances for McNamara, solidifying his reputation as a versatile actor. Notable among his works is the role of Derek Wolfe Jr in the Ernest R. Dickerson manhunt thriller "Surviving the Game" (1994), where he starred alongside veteran actors such as F. Murray Abraham, Gary Busey, Rutger Hauer, and John C. McGinley. In the same year, McNamara teamed up with Gary Busey and Tom Berenger in the Navy comedy "Chasers" (1994), directed by Dennis Hopper, showcasing his comedic talents. However, it was his chilling portrayal of Peter Foley, the copycat serial killer, in the psychological thriller "Copycat" (1995) that stands as one of his most prized performances. The film also featured Sigourney Weaver, Dermot Mulroney, and jazz musician Harry Connick Jr. McNamara continued to captivate audiences with roles in "Stag" (1997), alongside Andrew McCarthy and John Stockwell, and the World War II drama "The Brylcreem Boys" (1998), opposite Gabriel Byrne. The actor's career began with a bang in acclaimed cult horror director Dario Argento's slasher classic, "Opera" (1987), and since then, he has proven his mettle in various genres. Beyond his on-screen achievements, William McNamara is recognized for his philanthropic efforts as a kind spiritualist and avid animal rights activist. He passionately supports the cause of dolphins and small whales off the shores of Japan, contributing both time and resources. McNamara is also actively involved in animal rescue initiatives, Kundalini, and Yoga. Much like his co-star Henry Rollins in "Time Lapse" (2001), McNamara goes beyond the screen, actively championing causes close to his heart and embodying a commitment to making a positive impact. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/steven-cuoco/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/steven-cuoco/support

Today on The Neil Haley Show, Neil Haley and The Mike Vilardi Show with Mike Vilardi will interview actor, William McNamara. William McNamara studied at the Lee Strasberg Theatre and Film Institute and has since notched up over one hundred and sixty-five film and TV appearances. One of his first roles was that of Joel in the teen movie Dream a Little Dream (1989) with Corey Feldman and Corey Haim. He followed this up with the Bette Midler film Stella (1990). It was during the nineties, however, that William - arguably - turned out some of his best performances. He gave a great performance as Derek Wolfe Jr in the Ernest R. Dickerson manhunt thriller Surviving the Game (1994), in which he worked with a cast of talented veteran actors including F. Murray Abraham, Gary Busey, Rutger Hauer, and John C. McGinley. That same year he was again teamed with Gary Busey - and Tom Berenger - in the Navy comedy Chasers (1994), directed by Dennis Hopper. His most prized - and chilling - role, though, is that of Peter Foley the copycat serial killer in the psychological thriller Copycat (1995). The film also starred Sigourney Weaver, Dermot Mulroney, and jazz musician Harry Connick Jr.. He appeared with Andrew McCarthy and John Stockwell in Stag (1997), and made his way towards the millennium opposite Gabriel Byrne in the World War II drama The Brylcreem Boys (1998).

Kathrine Barnes Co-Stars in the New BET+ Series, 'Average Joe', which premiered last night following the BET Awards. The BET Awards aired on almost every single Paramount Global owned cable station, including Nickelodeon, which was quite confusing, but what wasn't confusing is that Barnes had such an impact on the BET executives that her character was extended to 7 or the 10 episodes during the first season. Barnes has been seen on such TV shows like, 'Queer As Folk', 'Candy' and the Sundance film, 'The Glorias', as well as, 'Moonshot: Faceless After Dark and Walden.' She has also appeared on Cartoon Network's Adult Swim, Christmas Special, 'Adult Swim Yule Log.' A mega Julie Andrews fan, Barnes was only slightly impressed that I knew of Andrews' film, 'SOB', which shed her Mary Poppins image in the early 1980s. However, she did talk about her architect sister and where she would throw a, "Don't you know who I am?" celebrity style tantrum once she is more readily recognized.  Barnes is also a Co-founder & Producing Partner at Vernal & Sere Theatre, she recently partnered with the Luis Buñuel Film Institute to mount the world-premiere stage adaptation of Buñuel's 1962 surrealist masterpiece, The Exterminating Angel, in which she played Silvia, the Duchess of Avila. In the series 'Average Joe',Barnes co-stars with leading man, Deon Cole, Tammy Townsend, Cynthia McWilliams, Malcolm Barrett and many others. Kathrine plays the recurring role (7-8 episodes out of 10) of 'Arina' which is nicknamed, "The Chameleon," a former KGB assassin and enforcer for the Russian mob who is dragged out of retirement and back into the world of fighting for her life in Pasha Lychnikoff's world. 'Average Joe', which premiered on BET's new streaming service BET+ last night following the BET Awards. 'Average Joe' will stream once a week for the next 10 weeks on Sunday nights.

SEASON 2 EPISODE 54 HOST: Sheila Glavee GUEST: Joseph Corella Using his dance, theatre, and fitness background, Joseph has traveled the globe, spreading this love and understanding of the importance of movement to such places as Japan, France, England, and Canada, as well as dozens of cities across the United States.  Joseph's connection to movement started in his early childhood with extensive training in jazz, tap, contemporary, and ballet. At thirteen, he became a member of famed choreographer Marguerite Derricks' prestigious dance company, Tremaine Teen Company, and shortly thereafter appeared in Disney's Geppetto alongside pop superstar Usher. In 1997, Joseph was named American Dance Awards' Teen Male Dancer of the Year. Soon after, the band Tropic Zone was created around Joseph and 2 others, with whom he toured extensively, including the US. Building on his dance and vocal talent, Joseph studied at the Lee Strasberg Theater and Film Institute and honed his comedic skills with Upright Citizens Brigade. He debuted on Broadway in All Shook Up and subsequently toured the US with productions of Grease (Dance Captain) and West Side Story. Other theatrical credits include: Surf: The Musical, CATS, Altar Boyz, Guys and Dolls, and much more. Joseph has been featured as a choreographer in the hit HBO special A Quinceañera Story.  Joseph was also featured on NBC's The Today Show promoting this HBO Doc.  As well, he teamed up with fitness guru, Cassey Ho of Blogilates and Pop Pilates creator, for a YouTube collaboration, seen by her 4.4 million followers. Joseph has worked with Rebel Wilson where he choreographed a CATS routine dubbed “Catzercize” which has been shared by Rebel and her 6 million + followers.  That viral video was soon followed up with a choreographed routine to “Greased Lightnin” from Grease, complete with Rebel piloting a pantomime race car. Joseph has been seen on television in Disney's Wizards of Waverly Place, MTV Dance Marathon, and the CW's Hart of Dixie.  Joseph's choreography has been seen on the CW's hit TV show Hart of Dixie, MTV Video Music Awards, the Neon Trees music video Feel Good, 98 Degree's music video Microphone, Julie Brown's hit musical Homecoming Queen's Got a Musical, I Totally Know What You Did Last Donna Summer starring Drew Droege and much more! Joseph's proudest accomplishment to date is creating 567BROADWAY! an all-levels dance fitness class. This idea was born out of Joseph's desire to create, encourage, and provide an inclusive sense of community where EVERYONE could have a safe space to dance and start their fitness journeys. 567BROADWAY! is a fun dance fitness experience that fuses the magic of Broadway with cardio and strength training to give you a full-body workout!

As we binge through our favorite shows, watch that go-to comfort movie for the 150th time, and curiosity scroll through the protagonists' real life social media pages, we often find ourselves wondering what the actor life is like. Daydreaming about how we would be in front of the camera for the whole world to see. Working alongside people that we have been enthralled and entertained by. Forgetting that most of the individuals we love and love to hate through our endless streams have had to fight and claw to the position they are in. This week on The Malliard Report, we get a rare chance to pull back that curtain and see just how life as an actor really…plays out… with special guest Sean Dillingham. Sean Dillingham “…has appeared in over 135+ commercials and 70+ films and 25 national television series. He's had network television appearances on Operation REPO, Discovery ID, Buried in the Backyard, The NightShift, Longmire, Brooklyn Nine-Nine, This is Us, There's Johnny, Yellowstone & Better call Saul! He has acted alongside Kevin Costner, Tony Danza, Jane Seymour, Patrick Duffy, Roger Bart, Don Ameche, Stacy Keache, John O'Hurley, Andre Braugher, Andy Samberg, Milo Ventimiglia, Bob Odenkirk, Aidan Quinn, BJ Novak, Ashton Kutcher and more. Sean has trained with the top Improv Theatres in the country including The Second City, The Groundlings, Upright Citizens Brigade and I.O. West. He also studied acting with both the prestigious Lee Strasberg Theatre & Film Institute and the Stella Adler Studio of Acting.” This is a fantastic episode because we are able to glimpse into a realm so few actually get to see. Sean also shares about how moving different places regularly as a kid can be difficult, the status of (or decline of) the entertainment industry today, and so much more.

Using his dance, theatre, and fitness background, Joseph has traveled the globe, spreading this love and understanding of the importance of movement to such places as Japan, France, England, and Canada, as well as dozens of cities across the United States. Joseph's connection to movement started in his early childhood with extensive training in jazz, tap, contemporary, and ballet. At thirteen, he became a member of famed choreographer Marguerite Derricks' prestigious dance company, Tremaine Teen Company, and shortly thereafter appeared in Disney's Geppetto alongside pop superstar Usher. In 1997, Joseph was named American Dance Awards' Teen Male Dancer of the Year. Soon after, the band Tropic Zone was created around Joseph and 2 others, with whom he toured extensively, including the US. Building on his dance and vocal talent, Joseph studied at the Lee Strasberg Theater and Film Institute and honed his comedic skills with Upright Citizens Brigade. He debuted on Broadway in All Shook Up and subsequently toured the US with productions of Grease (Dance Captain) and West Side Story. Other theatrical credits include: Surf: The Musical, CATS, Altar Boyz, Guys and Dolls, and much more. Joseph has been featured as a choreographer in the hit HBO special A Quinceañera Story. Joseph was also featured on NBC's The Today Show promoting this HBO Doc. As well, he teamed up with fitness guru, Cassey Ho of Blogilates and Pop Pilates creator, for a YouTube collaboration, seen by her 4.4 million followers. Joseph has worked with Rebel Wilson where he choreographed a CATS routine dubbed “Catzercize” which has been shared by Rebel and her 6 million + followers. That viral video was soon followed up with a choreographed routine to “Greased Lightnin” from Grease, complete with Rebel piloting a pantomime race car. Joseph has been seen on television in Disney's Wizards of Waverly Place, MTV Dance Marathon, and the CW's Hart of Dixie. Joseph's choreography has been seen on the CW's hit TV show Hart of Dixie, MTV Video Music Awards, the Neon Trees music video Feel Good, 98 Degree's music video Microphone, Julie Brown's hit musical Homecoming Queen's Got a Musical, I Totally Know What You Did Last Donna Summer starring Drew Droege and much more! Joseph's proudest accomplishment to date is creating 567BROADWAY! an all-levels dance fitness class. This idea was born out of Joseph's desire to create, encourage, and provide an inclusive sense of community where EVERYONE could have a safe space to dance and start their fitness journeys. 567BROADWAY! is a fun dance fitness experience that fuses the magic of Broadway with cardio and strength training to give you a full-body workout!
