John Adams, Lulu Adams, Zelda Adams, and Toby Poser are a family who write, produce, star in, and edit all of their films themselves. Together they've produced multiple features, including KNUCKLE JACK, RUMBLESTRIPS, THE HATRED, THE DEEPER YOU DIG, and most recently HELLBENDER which you can watch right now on Shudder on The Last Drive-In with Joe Bob Briggs. With HELLBENDER, the family shot the movie around the country during the pandemic using gear they bought themselves. The Adams Family is one of the most self-sufficient filmmaking outfits I've ever seen. They make all of their movies entirely on their own and don't rely on any traditional studio ecosystems whatsoever. As filmmakers, they do a particularly beautiful job of leaning into their relatively low budgets by making very singular and unique movies where every detail feels intentional. This is a testament to one of their greatest strengths as filmmakers, which is their resourcefulness. This conversation is a great lesson in economic filmmaking and low-budget features that don't feel low budget because the filmmakers embraced what they had access to. I really loved this conversation; the Adams Family are a bunch of very enthusiastic, inspiring, and passionate filmmakers with a lot to teach all of us. Here are some key takeaways from this conversation with The Adams Family. Just do it. Toby, Lulu, Zelda, and John write, direct, act in, edit, color correct, and score all of their movies themselves. From the beginning, they didn't wait for permission or approval or for a deal; but instead, they took an inventory of what they had access to and wrote and produced movies around that. A lot of would-be filmmakers tend to have these big elaborate plans and expensive concepts for scripts that require lots of money and collaborators when sometimes the best way to get something off the ground is by using what is right in front of you and crafting a movie around that. Robert Rodriguez speaks extensively about this very concept in his book, REBEL WITHOUT A CREW, which is a must-read for any filmmaker. Use mother nature as your DP. There is a naturally beautiful aesthetic that comes with using natural light as well as a more grounded production design. (See Robert Eggers' THE WITCH). And, despite its obvious limitations, natural light is free. The Adams Family cites mother nature as their best DP and recommends not fighting against whatever nature gives you but embracing it and working with it, and using it to serve your movie. As a result, their movies have a gritty and very natural beauty to them, which gives them a very recognizable aesthetic. Channel your current state into your writing. After a family crisis, Toby was going through a very difficult time period when writing the script for THE DEEPER YOU DIG. She ended up channeling her feelings into her writing, and the experience was not only cathartic, but her emotions were palpable in the movie itself. The Deeper You Dig has moments that are so chilling and get so deep under your skin, and it's clear that the movie's power comes from Toby's real and raw emotion. Even Quentin Tarantino stated that if you're not putting your current emotions into your writing, you're doing it wrong. Thanks as always for listening, don't forget to subscribe. ----- Produced by Simpler Media

From there, we discuss the importance of embracing the creative process, what it’s like to leave your 40 hour a week job to pursue filmmaking full time, the business side of being a filmmaker, and much more.

BLAM! Can you believe it? We're already at podcast episode 91! I plan to do something really special for episode 100. Maybe the whole Greywood's crew in a drunken round table discussion?! WITH VIDEO!?.... What do you all think of that? This week, I had the pleasure of bullsh!tt!n' with filmmaker and fellow patreon filmmaker Dan Lotz. He's been an amazing inspiration as to what you can do with no budget and I haven't even seen his film yet. In this episode we discuss where budget goes on a nearly zero budget film, how he felt about not getting on Rebel Without A Crew, Dan's movie The Long Con, how you make the most of locations, how to get around the competitive urge to put down other filmmakers, and why making a feature for no money is so exciting. This is a film heavy podcast, but I think it's an interesting conversation for everyone!

Today on the show we have writer/director Alejandro Montoya Marin. He had the pleasure of being selected to be a director on Robert Rodriguez's Rebel without a Crew Television Show. If you've been following me at all over the past three years you'll know how much of a fan I am of Robert Rodriguez (check out How to Make Rodriguez's Guacamole Gun). Here's some info on the show.Armed with a ridiculously low budget and just 14 days to shoot his movie, Robert Rodriguez created El Mariachi an award-winning film that changed independent filmmaking. The 12-part "Rebel Without a Crew: The Series" follows Scarlet Moreno, Alejandro Montoya Marin, Bola Ogun, Josh Stifter, and Bonnie-Kathleen "BK" Ryan as they shoot their own feature-length film in 2 weeks with a budget of only $7,000.I had a ball talking with Alejandro Montoya Marin about filmmaking, working with Robert Rodriguez, his experience being on a reality show and making his film MONDAY for $7000 and in 14 days.Enjoy my conversation with Alejandro Montoya Marin.
While in LA, I had the opportunity to sit down with Ryan Crow, show runner and all around good guy, to discuss how he began his career in television, how the Rebel Without A Crew got started, the process in which the filmmakers were chosen, and where the show hopes to go next. We also talk about being buried underground and how I got on Rebel Without A Crew. That and so much more!
Jenny and I have been crazy busy doing screenings, taking a mini-vacation, trying to get some short films and other art done, and more... so Jenny was very, very tired on this commentary. Nevertheless, we muscled through it to talk about my favorite episode of Rebel Without a Crew yet! In this episode we talk about the importance of the sizzle reel, meeting with Robert for the last time, working together to finish the projects, and my inability to be sentimental.
Alejandro and I got together to do our commentary and answer your questions about the FINAL episode of Rebel Without A Crew. We discuss seeing our movies together, taking a photo with Robert, SXSW, what we want to do next, who we would've cast in our movies, and more. If you all want more podcasts from the two of us, make sure to comment below and/or subscribe to the patreon!

In this Between The Frames segment, Chris discusses some specific production topics including: Filmmaking as jazz Improvisation Knowing your actors personally Asking for input Self-care Problem solving/conflict resolution Being present He covers their importance and some best practices to get the most out of each. He also recommends a list of tools and resources in the form of books, apps, and podcasts that serve the pre-production process, from organization to time management and communication. Here they are: The Q&A With Jeff Goldsmith.This podcast is an invaluable resource. The back-catalog is astoundingly large and you’ll have inspiration for weeks. Goldsmith knows how to ask the right questions of his guest filmmakers, actors, writers, etc. The Treatment.Host Elvis Mitchell has been around for a while and is a great lover of cinema. He’s done some great interviews from the past and, in this regular show, he dives into true filmmaking craft and appreciation.

There’s no shortage of information here. Off Camera With Sam Jones.Sam Jones sits down with great actors and film/TV artists to discuss process. Not only is it fascinating from a fan perspective, but you’ll get many little gems about onset dynamics and how-tos. Rebel Without A Crew, by Robert Rodriguez.I don’t think there’s a more reputable or important book on independent filmmaking out there. This one is like a bible of sorts. If you haven’t heard of it before, you just need to read it. That’s all there is to it. The Daily Show (The Oral History), by Chris Smith, forward by Jon Stewart.This book was a great peak inside how an American institution grew, evolved, and engendered a collaborative production environment, even under great pressure and scrutiny. It’s a great example of production health being a top-down enterprise. The Friedkin Connection: A Memoir, by William Friedkin.This was not only a remarkable walk through a truly remarkable period in cinema history, but also a powerful reminder that your filmmaking principals should be firm. The audiobook is also read by Friedkin himself. Robert Altman: The Oral Biography, by Mitchell Zuckoff. Altman is one of American cinema’s truest pioneers—a filmmaker’s filmmaker in the classic sense. This book cobbles together interviews with his family, friends and collaborators—many of whom belong to multiple categories. Through their testimonials the reader gets a comprehensive sense of Altman’s unique and collectivist process. The truest example of filmmaker as jazz band leader. Headspace app. This app got me through some very stressful times while producing Counterintelligence. You can do the 10 day beginners course for free, then pay to access advanced and specific courses, like meditations to enhance focus, reduce stress, calm anxiety, and sleep better. I’ve tried many of these to great results. If you’re about to undergo a production, this definitely will not hurt you to try. Click here to visit this info on ShoHawk.com!

This dude helped me so much on the show, from talking through what I should get for the shoot, to just relaxing with a beer to blow off some steam. Also, we made lots of inappropriate jokes together. I can say with complete honesty that in the last 4 months we've known each other, he's become one of my best friends. On this episode, we ramble about filmmaking, discuss the honesty and integrity of Rebel Without A Crew, feeling pride for your own work, and getting mugged.

Sorry, got to keep playing. Go listen to the whole thing, if you want the answer.

Not long ago, I was in a job I didn't like. I was stressed out. I was taking my life for granted. I was taking everything so seriously. Everything was serious and intense. It's always about the next thing. No matter where I was, there's always some place of to get to. I never could really enjoy the process because I was always looking for the next thing. To compound matters in 2006, my sister Sue died suddenly from a brain aneurysm. After my sister's death, I hit rock bottom. This was a huge wakeup call for me. I needed to make some serious changes on my life. If I didn't change, nothing would change. I turned my focus inward. I believe change is an inside job. Gandhi once said "You must be the change that you want to see in the world.” Change needs to occur on the inside before it manifest on the outside. I took a long hard look at the direction and purpose in my life. I asked myself some of that soul-searching timeless questions people have asked themselves throughout history – what am I here for? What do I want to give back to the world? What legacy do I want to leave? What do I want to do, be and have the time I have left? I pictured myself at the end of my life on my deathbed and asked myself, "Would I regret it if I didn't play full out and live a life of passion, fun, purpose and adventure?" Yes, I would regret it big time. If I didn't live my life to its fullest, I was going to regret it. I had to really learn to lighten up, to shift my state. That’s what a lot of these programs going to be about, is providing tools for how to actively shift your state.
No filter. It’s a way of discovery. Robert Rodriguez embraced digital filmmaking, not because it was “better” but because he was able to spend less “downtime” between thought and creation. Creating at the speed of thought can speed things up, but it can also help you take more risks and rely on instinct. The ability to create at the speed of thought reduces snags and barriers.
