Welcome to Occult of Personality: esoteric podcast extraordinaire. I'm your host, Greg Kaminsky.In episode number 208, our friends Guido Mina di Sospiro and Joscelyn Godwin return to the show to discuss their recent book, Forbidden Fruits: An Occult Novel. I want to take a moment to explain why it's been more than two months since the last episode. You see, my father had been ill, and he recently passed. I needed some time to be with family and so that's what I did. But now it's time to turn back to the task at hand, illuminating podcast interviews about the esoteric. I need you to know that I very much appreciate your patience and understanding while I've been away.Occult of Personality podcast is made possible by you, the listeners, and by the subscribers to https://chamberofreflection.com, our membership site who aid us in the cause of informed, authentic, and accessible interviews about western esotericism. Thank you again! Because of your support, we're able to bring you recordings of this caliber and many more to come.Now, in episode #208, an interview with Guido Mina di Sospiro and Joscelyn Godwin about their recent book, Forbidden Fruits: An Occult Novel, a follow-up to their previous collaboration, The Forbidden Book. You can find Guido online at http://guido-mina-di-sospiro.com/ and Joscelyn at https://sites.google.com/a/colgate.edu/jgodwin/. You may recall that Joscelyn was our guest way back in 2012 (https://occultofpersonality.net/joscelyn-godwin/) and Guido in 2015 (https://occultofpersonality.net/guido-mina-di-sospiro/). Forbidden Fruits is a wonderful and intriguing tale, masterfully told and chock full of esoteric themes and insights that you might expect from experts in esoteric research and creative writing. I really enjoyed this second novel by Guido and Joscelyn. The way that current events, the esoteric, intrigue, and a fascinating plot are woven together in a highly entertaining story is quite brilliant. Furthermore, I really love how Guido, a master storyteller and one who can communicate the subtle intimacies of humanity and life, combines his writing with the erudite and esoteric knowledge of Joscelyn, one of the most respected and highly regarded academics in this field. They are a dream team. I highly recommend Forbidden Fruits! You will not regret partaking in its tempting tale.Guido Mina di Sospiro is an award-winning, internationally acclaimed author of many books, and an erudite man with the soul of a poet.

Hubo un número incierto de Resucitadores a lo largo de décadas… quizá siglos, pero los más conocidos sin duda fueron, William Burke y William Hare.

In this episode I expand on some ideas that came up in my discussion with Brian A. Loschiavo about his documentary about the Bluebird Cafe, a now iconic music in Nashville. After I did the interview, certain subsequent news stories involving Taylor Swift came out, and they did affect my take on the film. Since Taylor Swift was prominently featured in the Bluebird documentary and discussed in my interview with Brian, I decided to do a supplemental commentary track to expand on my thoughts about her and how she affected my interpretation of the documentary. # Sponsors for this Episode nsavides productions  I make friendly, engaging videos for earnest people.

Brian A. Loschiavo, the director-producer-editor of the Bluebird documentary, was first exposed to The Bluebird Cafe through the show Nashville, a series for which he developed supplemental digital content. The now iconic country-music venue that has been instrumental to the careers of so many musicians including Faith Hill, Garth Brooks, and Taylor Swift made enough of an impression on Brian that he set out to create a documentary about the place and the community of singer-songwriters it has nurtured over the years. Bluebird premiered at SXSW 2019 but had a stronger reception at Nashville Film Festival several months later, where festival organizers ended up giving it four screenings to accommodate audience interest. I saw the film while attending the Nashville Film Festival and got to interview Brian there. Some of the things we discuss include How he was able to get a number of prominent musicians like Taylor Swift to be in his film Why The Bluebird Cafe is such a memorable venue The challenges of shooting and/or performing in a confined space Sponsors for this Episode nsavides productions  I make friendly, engaging videos for earnest people.

Premiering at Nashville Film Festival 2019, The Sheriff of Mars is a music documentary that tells the story of Daniel Antopolsky, a country and folk musician who was friends with Townes Van Zandt and who, the film suggests, helped to inspire Townes' now iconic outlaw country song "Pancho and Lefty." Wanting to escape the dark influence of the 1970s outlaw country music scene, Daniel retreated to France where he was discovered by Jason Ressler, the director of Sheriff of Mars. Jason was so captivated by Daniel's music that he became his manager, helping him release his first album at the age of 65. More albums followed as did press from the BBC, Rolling Stone, and other renowned publications. Under Jason's guidance, Daniel began getting booked to perform at prominent music events, including SXSW and the Black Deer Festival in the UK. Not content to merely be Daniel's manager, Jason also put together a music documentary to raise awareness of Daniel and his music. The Sheriff of Mars is what resulted, an affirming, on-screen demonstration of how it's never too late to start a music career or to revitalize once-abandoned dreams. If the vision is there, you need collaboration to make it happen, but if you compromise the vision—if you have a good vision—it's not going to turn out well." - Jason Ressler Jason is the first manager-director I've met, so I invited him on the show to get his take on finding success in film and music. Some of the things we discuss include How he got a BBC profile for Daniel How to persevere when beset by failure Collaborating with music producers and engineers to create an album that’s right for an artist The interview he did with James Brown before he died and the impression that left If you listen all the way to the end, you'll get to hear Daniel's song "Fish Bait Blues," which is also featured in the film.

What's Eating Ralphie May won Best of the Fest at Nashville Film Festival and Documentary of the Year at Los Angeles Documentary Film Festival. The film was initially intended to be a weight-loss documentary that followed beloved comedian Ralphie May and his family, but it turned into a raw and intimate portrait of a family dealing with addiction during the last years of Ralphie’s troubled life.  At Nashville Film Festival I had the chance to interview comedian and wife of Ralphie, Lahna Turner, and director Cat Rhinehart.

My podcast coverage of Nashville Film Festival continues in this short-films episode where I interview the directors for two different short films that got my attention at the festival. One has more of a documentary feel while the other one is a more stylized film with elaborate production design, so I paired the two interviews to explore how shorts can come together and the creative possibilities they can offer. The first interview is with Amanda Young, one of the directors behind Every Two Minutes, a compilation of stories relating to human trafficking. The short was done through StoryGive, which partners filmmakers in Nashville with non-profits that tackle various social issues. For Every Two Minutes, StoryGive connected local filmmakers with End Slavery Tennessee, a non-profit dedicated to caring for survivors of human trafficking and tactically addressing the issue. The second interview is with Chilean director Vicente Manzano. His experimental short Bubble uses bubble framing in a novel, story-driven way. Virtually everything in the film was custom-designed for the film, which involved careful planning to pull off. Some of the things we discuss include Using film to address a social issue in an impactful way How to collaborate with accomplished filmmakers and crew members on limited budget How to make a short film that is driven by stylized production design Sponsors for this Episode nsavides productions  I make friendly, engaging videos for earnest people.

A couple of weeks ago I had the opportunity to attend and do podcast coverage at the 50th Nashville Film Festival. While there, I interviewed a number of filmmakers and filled an entire notebook with observations about the various films and events I attended. My Nashville Film Festival podcast coverage began with this interview I did with some of the filmmakers behind Lost Bayou. More filmmaker interviews are coming soon. Here, I'll recap some of the notable films and experiences I had at the festival and share some of the things I learned while attending. The filmmakers, musicians, and creative people who I aim to serve with this podcast are those who seek truth and care about exploring big ideas, and so I will strive for both, as I've done with other festivals I've covered. The first pass at my podcast commentary of Nashville Film Festival came in close to three hours, so I've broken it up into three parts. Part I includes General observations and strengths of the festival Music insights from a few panels and films Reactions to Marriage Story, the new Noah Baumbach film; Speed of Life, a narrative film in which the death of David Bowie causes a disruption to the space-time continuum that threatens the romance of a young couple; and Chuck Berry, the documentary about the founding father of rock n roll that premiered at the festival. This is Part II, the meat of the coverage, where I go through a number of feature films I saw at the festival and discuss what worked for me and what didn't. Some of the related topics that come up include doing the right thing in spite of social pressure, police brutality on screen, gender identity issues, and more. In Part III, I will share my top five films from Nashville Film Festival and why I picked them. Part II and III will get added to this page in a couple of days.

My podcast coverage of Nashville Film Festival begins with Lost Bayou, a film that premiered at Tribeca and went on to win Best Picture at the El Dorado Film Festival. Lost Bayou tells the story of a struggling addict who returns home to the Louisiana bayou to reconnect with her faith healer father, only to discover he’s hiding a troubling secret aboard his houseboat. During the Nashville Film Festival, I had the chance to interview director Brian Richard, writer-actor Hunter Burke, and actor Jackson Beals about the film. Some of the things we discuss include Honoring not exploiting the Cajun faith-healing community Getting the Cajun accents right and using them for story purposes Working with the Grammy-winning band Lost Bayou Ramblers on the soundtrack Nurturing a family-like atmosphere on set Exploring a crisis of faith on screen Sponsor for this Episode nsavides productions – I make friendly, engaging videos for earnest people.

Even in the early days of the internet, Brian Solis was advising prominent companies about how to use social media to connect with potential customers. He's been called "one of the greatest digital analysts of our time” and has been sought out by the likes of Oprah, Shaq and Ashton Kutcher.  Brian is also an award-winning author and world-renowned keynote speaker. I met Brian at SXSW 2019, during his book launch event for Lifescale: How to Live a More Creative, Productive, and Happy Life. As Brian explains in our interview, the book developed out of a conversation he had after speaking at SXSW 2018: He was challenged to provide an answer to the questions he had raised about the dark side of social media. Lifescale became his answer. Writing the book made him rethink his priorities and pursue deeper, more meaningful connections with the people in his life. The book had a similar effect on me and helped me prepare for new creative possibilities, so I brought Brian on the show to discuss it. Some of the things Brian and I discuss in this episode include How social media can rewire people and societies When the personal approach can be right approach Using design principles to create a more reading experience The life-changing impact of Walt Disney a certain animated short How to develop deeper, more meaningful connections with others Practical things we can do to rekindle our creativity # Sponsor for this Episode   nsavides productions – I make friendly, engaging videos for earnest people.   # This music video I shot for Long Division, a post-rock band from Virginia, was nominated for an award by Veer Magazine. # More of my videos are here. # Say hello: podcast@nsavides.com # Related Episodes Todd Henry, founder and CEO of Accidental Creative, came on the showto discuss how to get past writer's block, live with purpose, and discover our life's work. # Related Things I met Brian at his Lifescale book event at SXSW 2019.   Brian's site LinkedIn, Instagram, Twitter lifescaling.me Alikeanimated short Lifescalegot included in this cnbc.com list of notable books in 2019 "Human Contact Is Now a Luxury Good"as explained in The New York Times Brian's Lifescaleevent at SXSW got mentioned as one of my highlights of SXSW 2019 Shortcut for the podcast: nicksav.show Additional music for the show provided by Rob Costlow. # Books Mentioned Lifescale: How to Live a More Creative, Productive, and Happy Life What’s the Future of Business?

Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse developed a new approach to computer animation so as to translate the comic-book experience for the big screen. Academy voters took notice and awarded the film an Oscar for Best Animated Feature. One of the last things that moviegoers see before leaving the film is the hyperkinetic title sequence animated by visual studio Alma Mater. The sequence was featured at SXSW 2019 in a compilation of compelling title sequences, and it made enough of an impression that it won SXSW's jury-awarded Excellence in Title Design accolade. As part of my festival coverage of SXSW 2019, I sat down with title sequence co-director James Ramirez to learn more about what went into making the sequence. Some of the things we discuss include The different styles of animation that went into the sequence and how they put it together in Cinema 4D How they worked with the filmmakers behind Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse to supplement the ideas and characters of the film The way they implemented the half-tone look What filmmakers should keep in mind when planning for a title sequence # Related Episode To hear more about how vintage animation styles have influenced computer animation, check out this interview with Limbert Fabian and Brandon Oldenburg, Oscar-winning directors from Moonbot Studios, in Shreveport, Louisiana. # Sponsor for this Episode nsavides productions – I make videos and tell stories.

Jack Kirby, an early Spider-Man artist, provided design inspiration for both the film and title sequence of Into the Spider-Verse.  While we didn't get to discuss this in the interview, James also did some motion graphics work on Stranger Than Fiction, a film that has been a big inspiration for me.

On this episode, I explore some of the big ideas and political discussions I heard at SXSW 2019. While this is not an inherently political show, political outlooks inform the films, music, and art we take in and strive to create, whether directly or indirectly. SXSW isn't just a prominent film and music festival. It's also where presidential hopefuls and thought leaders gather to share their perspectives on the world, and so the festival can serve as a bellwether for where the culture is heading. This episode is a little different than the typical coverage I do, but it does allow for a more in-depth discussion on some of the ideas behind the films and music at the festival. It also gave me an opportunity to share some things on my heart. I hope some of you will find it helpful. # Related Episode The first episode I did on SXSW 2019 highlights some of the memorable films, music, and experiences that stuck out for me. # Sponsor for this Episode nsavides productions – I make videos and tell stories.

First-time directors face all kinds of unexpected challenges. For Alex Ferrari, host of the Indie Film Hustle podcast, that meant trying to shoot a $20 million feature film in Louisiana and across the country for a bipolar, egomaniacal gangster. The dream of becoming a feature-film director turned into a nightmare for Alex, and it led to a textbook example of how not to make a film. That traumatic experience went on to forge Alex's interest in helping other filmmakers avoid similar heartaches. He provides a detailed account of what happened and the lessons he learned along the way in his new book, Shooting for the Mob. # Alex came on the show to discuss some of the life lessons he learned from that experience and his years in the industry. Some of the things we discuss include How his schedule helps him stay prolific What to avoid when making a feature film The important role that meditation plays in his life How to follow our dreams while being true to ourselves How to build meaningful relationships in a industry filled with shallow ones # Related Episode If you want to hear more about Alex, check out the first interview I did with himwhere we discuss his work as a post-production supervisor and his insights about building an engaged community. # Sponsor for this Episode nsavides productions – I make videos and tell stories.

Our SXSW 2019 podcast coverage continues with two representatives from film-financing company Forest Road. The company sponsored one of the filmmaker dinners at SXSW this year. More importantly, they are a financing company that puts the filmmakers first. Forest Road Company's CEO Zach Tarica and Director of West Coast Operations Eric Boshart came on the podcast to break down the film financing process and what filmmakers should know when preparing to secure financing. Financing is a huge aspect of filmmaking, but for all kinds of reasons film financing companies are often hesitant to go on record about how they do business. Defying those tendencies, Zach and Eric spoke openly about their process and advocated for more transparency in the industry. # Some of the things we discuss include How to protect the equity behind a project Fees to watch for during the budgeting process What should a good term sheet and opinion letter include How to determine which states have the best tax incentives for film Highlights from SXSW 2019 # Related Episode  If you appreciate Zach and Eric's transparency about the filmmaking process, you might also appreciate the transparency that 1091 (formerly The Orchard), a prominent film distributor, brings to their filmmaker collaborations. When I met Richard Matson during SXSW 2017, he was the vice president of theatrical distribution at The Orchard. # Sponsor for this Episode nsavides productions – I make videos and tell stories.

Compositor Travis Nobles wanted to work on films ever since he saw The Lord of the Rings. Through an unexpected journey that led him from the United States to Germany and then to New Zealand, he finally got to work for the company that brought CG Gollum to life: Weta Digital. Before Weta, Travis's resume includes several Emmy-winning seasons of Game of Thrones, where he got to composite a number of the show's iconic dragon shots. Travis came on the show to discuss his work and the role of a compositor on an effects-driven production. Some of the things we discuss include How someone can get started as a compositor Skills a compositor needs to work on big effects-driven projects How filmmakers can make things easier for their post-production teams Ways indie filmmakers can save money on visual effects What it was like working on Hugo and why the stereo 3D on it turned out better than most films How some of the dragon shots in Game of Thrones came together Dealing with unsettling content that comes with an adult-show like Game of Thrones  Travis’s transition to Weta Digital and how he prepped for his work on Mortal Engines, Weta’s upcoming film slated for release in December 2018   # To hear more about how the miniatures in Hugo were created, check out this interview I did with Jeff Jasper, the digital effects supervisor who oversaw the film's train crash.  # Sponsor for this Episode nsavides productions – I make videos and tell stories.

The 26th Cutting Edge conference concluded a few weeks ago, and for my podcast coverage I had the opportunity to interview the festival's founder Eric Cager, along with some musicians performing at the conference and a filmmaker who screened work there.

Do U Want It? is a music documentary that tells the story of the New Orleans funk band, Papa Grows Funk, their residency at The Maple Leaf Bar, and then their indefinite hiatus that they announced in 2013. The film doesn't just capture a band in transition and the creative differences that came along though. It also offers an insider's glimpse into what makes the New Orleans music community so special, which the film sometimes accents with New Orleans-styled animation. No surprise then that the film won the audience award at the New Orleans Film Festival when it screened there in 2017. The film has also screened in festivals across the country including San Francisco Indie Fest, Oxford (Mississippi) Film Festival, and Chicago International Movies & Music Festival. Just a few weeks ago, the film won Best Music Documentary at San Francisco's Frozen Film Festival. I had the chance to catch the film when it screened at the Louisiana International Film Festival in April.  That's where I met the film's directors, Josh FreundandSam Radutzky. I was captivated by their affection for the New Orleans music scene and by the way their film explores Papa Grows Funk's creative collaborations, both when they work and when they don't, so I invited them to come on the show. Some of the things we discuss include How to connect with bands at shows What makes the New Orleans music scene so distinct The tension that arises between musicians who are content to preform locally and those who want to build a national following How much footage and editing goes into shooting a feature-length music documentary The way that Josh and Sam resolved their own creative differences during post Budgeting for animated clips in a film and an indie tip for getting a lower rate How to shoot a band on tour   # Want to hear from a band that played at Jazz Fest this year?  Then check out this interview I did with Daniel and Jesse Reaux from The Rayo Brothers.  # Sponsor for this Episode nsavides productions– I make videos and tell stories. #   This is the video I shot of The Rayo Brothers at Jazz Fest this year.   Say hello: podcast@nsavides.com # Related Things Do U Want it?

Wumbo is a word coined on SpongeBob SquarePants. It is also an indie-rcok band that The Advocaterecently included in their list of 10 bands to check out in Baton Rouge. The band has played at most of Baton Rouge's esteemed music venues including The Varsity, Spanish Moon, Mid City Ballroom, Happy's Irish Pub, 524 Studios, and more. In a few days they'll be starting their tour across the South and Midwest. There’s no blueprint to being a band.” - Jake Heflin The band describes their hard-to-pinpoint sound as "space-indie-rock-jazz-pop" and released their self-titled EP back in December 2017. I heard them play at 524 a few weeks ago and liked their show enough to invite them on the podcast and to pick up their EP, which has come to remind me of Radiohead's seminal album, OK Computer.  I had the opportunity to interview band members Kevin McCabe (drums), Jake Heflin (vocals, guitar), Mitchell Mobley (vocals, guitar), Tanner Yeldell (synth, percussion), and Zak Ocmand (bass) at Jake's place, where the band usually practices. Some of the things we discuss in this episode  include How to riff on a song until it's right Influences that have shaped their songs Using digital effects to emulate an analogue sound Conventions of shoegazing music and how that influenced the band’s approach to mixing  How to work through the challenges that come up when booking a tour Why innocent nonsense is worth celebrating Tips on how to book more shows at venues   Want to hear from another band in Baton Rouge with a distinct sound?  Then check out this interview with another local music darling, Ship of Fools. # Sponsor for this Episode nsavides productions – I make videos and tell stories.  # The right music video can open doors to venue owners, agents, and other decision makers.

Filmmaker Joshua Overbay's first film, As It Is in Heaven, was a Critics' Pick in The New York Times and favorably reviewed on rogerebert.com. Luke & Jo is Josh's third film, and it continues the tradition of exploring big questions while telling an intimate, character-driven story that Josh started with his first film. Nathaniel Glass was one of the producers on As It Is in Heaven, and he returned as producer on Luke & Jo. This time around, he was also the director of photography, his first feature-length cinematography credit. The film has a memorable look, a testament to the work he did as a cinematographer and colorist. ... filmmaking is about telling truthful stories that change the world" - Nathaniel Glass  Joshua and Nathaniel came on the podcast along with Andie Morgenlander, who was a co-writer, co-producer, costumer designer, and the lead actress in Luke & Jo. Having the three of them together allowed us to explore the filmmaking collaborative process in a really detailed way. Some of the things we discuss include What to do when conflict arises during a shoot How to shoot a film that allows for improvisation from the actors The importance of a good camera operator on a micro-budget shoot Whether creative people should be more like brick walls or rubber bands Why asking for and receiving forgiveness is so important but so difficult to do Whether the coincidences or serendipities have higher significance How to not be that guy at film festivals As I mention in the episode, Josh was one of the judges of our #KnowMonologues challenge that I did with actress Laura Cayouette. This is the episode with Laurathat led to the challenge.

Michael Berry is the writer-director of Stuck, an original character-driven musical set in a New York subway that stars Giancarlo Esposito, whom Breaking Badfans might recognize as the cunning owner of Los Pollos Hermanos. Giancarlo plays a very different character in Stuck: a mysterious, seemingly homeless man prone to break into song, who may or may not be on some kind of cosmic special assignment to impact the lives of the passengers who share his New York subway car. Someone breaking into a song is truly not the strangest thing that happens on subways." - Michael Berry It's an ensemble film, so all the main characters get their solos, and the film includes memorable performances from Amy Madigan (Field of Dreams), Arden Cho (Teen Wolf), Ashanti (Coach Carter), Gerard Canonico (Fred in the Broadway production of Groundhog Day), and Omar Chaparro (Overboard). Michael has a background in theater: He's performed on Broadway in shows like Les Misérablesand Next to Normal, and he credits his theatrical background with training him to get the most out of his indie-sized film budgets. His theater experience also helped him to work with marquee talent when he transitioned into film.  Frontera, the first feature film that Michael directed, includes performances from Ed Harris, Eva Longoria, and Michael Peña. Some of the things that we discuss in this episode include Why the musical is an inherently fantastical genre but one that can also be grounded in reality The recording technique that allowed his performers the freedom to riff on the musical numbers How he was able to shoot a memorable musical with a budget that was a fraction of La La Landand The Greatest Showman What went into recreating a New York subway car and how that helped the crew get ready for shooting in a real New York City subway for a few days How Stuckwas able to depict characters with opposing viewpoints without demonizing anyone I was moved by how the film depicted its assorted characters with depth while undercutting stereotypes.  The film also suggests that to get unstuck we might need each other, even those whose outlook is different than ours, and that reminded me of a certain show. I initially mentioned Stuckin my recap of Louisiana International Film Festival 2018. Stuckwas my favorite film that I saw at LIFF, which is where I met Michael. As mentioned above, Gerard Canonico also has a role in the Broadway production of Groundhog Day. To learn more about that production came together, check out this interview I did with Danny Rubin, the writer of the film and musical adaptation of Groundhog Day. # Sponsor for this Episode nsavides productions – I make videos and tell stories.

Some songwriters would kill for the chance to work with just one multi-platinum artist. Songwriter Brent Baxterhas worked with a handful of them. One of his songs even made it onto Rolling Stone's list of the 40 Saddest Country Songs of All Time. How does a songwriter get to write for multi-platinum artists, and what's it like writing songs for Alan Jackson, Lady Antebellum and Randy Travis? I brought Brent on the podcast to find out. You want to make friends you can rise with not friends you have to rise above." - Brent Baxter Some of the things that we discuss include How to write for songs for superstars Songs Brent admires for their craftsmanship How songwriters are like Special Forces Practical tips for moving to an industry hub like Nashville and getting connected with the community there The business side of being a songwriter and some challenges involved Why being a successful artist is all about being in the service industry Why sync licensing can be more profitable for songwriters When does it make sense to sign a publishing deal How to prepare for a collaboration with a big name What a well-written song involves We also discuss these songs that Brent wrote: "Monday Morning Church" (Alan Jackson), "When Your Lips Are so Close" (Gord Bamford), "A Woman Scorned" & “Last Night Last” (Lady Antebellum), and "Every Head Bowed" (Randy Travis). At the end of the episode, you can hear a demo of a song Brent co-wrote with WILKES, who is currently featured on NBC's The Voice.

My coverage of LIFF2018 continues with Tinker producer Tom Bhramayana.  It was a sci-fi film that started as Kickstarter campaign which brought in over $100,000. A few year later, it has won 19 best-of awards at festivals around the country, and all three screenings at this year's Louisiana International Film Festival have sold out. The term producer has many connotations, but Tom wasn't just in charge of getting the money. He was also one of the writers, did a voice-over for one of the character, and his other on-screen credits include unit production manager, line producer, travel coordinator, assistant editor, props, locations, and cast.  All that to say, Tom has been intimately involved with Tinker from pre-production to post and foreign sales, and he offered lots of helpful filmmaking insights when we spoke a few days ago.  It doesn't matter what your belief is, it doesn't matter how you were raised, who you are, if you help people, anybody can do the smallest things and make a big difference in someone's life." - Tom Bhramayana My coverage of #LIFF2018 continues with this interview I did with Tom Bhramayana. Some of the things that we discuss include How the filmmakers behind Tinker were able to raise over $100,000 in their first Kickstarter campaign  The way the filmmaking team shot the film in spurts that were months apart How feedback from festivals helped them to refine their film and increase their festival acceptance rate  What the visual-effects process was like  What goes into developing a DCP that can be screened in theaters  How the film was budgeted and how Tom anticipates they will make a profit from VOD and foreign sales  # Sponsor for this Episode nsavides productions – I make videos and tell stories.

Brimstone & Glory is a documentary produced by the Department of Motion Pictures that tells the story of Tultepec, a town in Mexico that is dedicated to the making and celebration of fireworks. It's a poetic, visually stunning film that the National Board of Review recognized as one of the top five documentaries of 2017, and it is one of the films screening at this year's Lousiana International Film Festival. Director Viktor Jakovleski initially conceived of the film as something that he would produce and his friend and colleague Benh Zeitlin (Beasts of the Southern Wild) would direct. As the concept developed though, Benh decided to come onboard as producer and composer so that Viktor could direct it. My coverage of #LIFF2018 continues with this interview I did with Viktor. Some of the things that we discuss include How the film came about because of a coincidental or serendipitous encounter at a party The distinct shooting style and challenges that arise when shooting with a Phantom camera that can shoot at 1500 frames per second What it was like collaborating with Benh who was both a producer and composer on the  project, an unusual combination Why the documentary is a kind of musical and the unique way that the music was developed during post production How to approach dangerous things with reverence I continue my coverage of #LIFF2018 with director Viktor Jakovleski: Brimstone & Glory will be playing at #LIFF2018 on Friday, April 20 at 7:00 PM.

My podcast coverage of Louisiana International Film Festival 2018 continues with director Maya Washington. She's the filmmaker behind Through the Banks of the Red Cedar and the daughter of Gene Washington, the wide receiver who played for Michigan State and then the Minnesota Vikings and the Denver Broncos. Gene's storied football career led to an induction into the College Football Hall of Fame, two Pro Bowl appearances and one Super Bowl game. He was also one of 23 African Americans who were brought onto the Michigan State team in 1963 by Coach Duffy Daugherty. That was an unprecedented move in college football that helped to turn fully integrated football teams into the norm. Some of the things that Maya and I discuss in our interview include The way segregation affected college football and the transition past that How her relationship with her dad became the emotional hook of her documentary What making the documentary taught her about football and how it brought her closer to her dad What it takes to include footage from NCAA College Football and NFL events in a documentary How one considerate gesture from a competitor changed the life of Gene Washington, his family, and countless others.

My #LIFF2018 coverage continues with makeup artist and documentary filmmaker Tiffany Bartok. She's the director behind Larger Than Life: The Kevyn Aucoin Story. Prior to seeing the documentary and doing the interview, I wasn't aware of Kevyn, but then the few makeup artists I'm aware of tend to be special-effects luminaries like Jack Pierce (Frankenstein, Bride of Frankenstein) or Rick Baker (An American Werewolf in London, Hellboy). It turns out that Kevyn was quite the makeup trailblazer and one of the early makeup artists who was on a first-name basis with a number of celebrities. He would eventually become a celebrity in his own right during an era when just a handful of people were making a living as professional makeup artists. Some of the big names Kevyn worked with include Cindy Crawford, Janet Jackson, Liza Minnelli, Naomi Campbell, and Winona Ryder. As Larger Than Life: The Kevyn Aucoin Story reveals, sometimes those high-profile collaborations would cause ripples throughout the fashion industry that would reverberate for years. Tiffany's documentary doesn't just highlight Kevyn's achievements and put them in historical perspective though. It also reveals some of the struggles Kevyn faced as an adopted child who would come to feel twice rejected by his biological mother, once because she put him up for adoption and then later in life when he  reunited with her and discovered that she had reservations about his sexual identity. Some of the things that Tiffany and I discuss in our interview include What she learned about filmmaking as a makeup artist How to deal with celebrities ready to throw a tantrum Some of the ways that Kevyn changed the dynamic between celebrities and their makeup artists How she was able to get a number of high-profile people to participate in the documentary and share honest perspectives about Kevyn The way that Kevyn redefined how we think about and perceive beauty Below, my podcast coverage of #LIFF2018 continues with director Tiffany Bartok: [spp-player url="http://traffic.libsyn.com/nsavides/director-Vincent-Grashaw-and-then-I-go-filmmaking-podcast.mp3"] Tiffany will be attending LIFF 2018, so if you plan to attend then you can continue the conversation there. Larger Than Life: The Kevyn Aucoin Story will be playing at #LIFF2018 on Saturday, April 21 at 5:00 PM, and Tiffany will be participating in a filmmaking discussion earlier in the day, from 3:30 - 3:45 PM. Tickets are available through LIFF's website. Makeup artists are often paired with hair stylists on films, so if you enjoyed this episode, you might also appreciate hearing from film stylist Dana Boisseau, who has worked on projects including Ray, Django Unchained, and The Butler. As it happens, I also met Dana through LIFF, and my podcast started as a result.     Sponsor for this Episode nsavides productions – I make videos and tell stories.

This is the first part of my coverage for Louisiana International Film Festival 2018, which happens in Baton Rouge from April 19-22. In this episode, I talk to director Vincent Grashaw about his film And Then I Go. His film tells the story of two young people who contemplate a potential school shooting against their classmates as retaliation for the slights they've endured. Unfortunately, the Parkland shooting and other recent events have made And Then I Go all too topical, but unlike certain outspoken figures who have argued the issue, the film doesn't point fingers or offer easy answers. Instead it explores a difficult issue in a thoughtful, nuanced way. It's the kind of contemplative approach that could serve us well to emulate, whether in discussing school shootings or in broaching similarly polarizing issues. After all, the answers to the troubling problems that plague our society, if any answers are to be found, probably won't come from more heated vitriol. They seem more likely to emerge from the quiet determination in enough hearts to stop searching for someone else to blame and to start taking responsibility for making things better. Vincent's film subtly asks us all to consider what that might look like, and he expands on that in his interview with me. If that's not the ultimate solution to a vexing issue that has sadly become all familiar, then it's at least a step in the right direction, and even a small step forward is a welcome one at this point. In addition to how Vincent's film wrestles school-shooting issue, we also discuss How Vincent prepared his young actors to explore a challenging issue The way the cinematography and music in the film helped him tell the story Why he likes to bring the composer early in the development process How he partnered with The Orchard to get the word out about his film My podcast coverage of #LIFF2018 begins below with director Vincent Grashaw discussing his film And Then I Go: [spp-player url="http://traffic.libsyn.com/nsavides/Gothic-Tropic-nsavides-podcast-inteview-at-sxsw-T2.mp3"] Vincent will be attending LIFF 2018, so if you plan to attend then you can continue the conversation there. And Then I Go will be playing on Saturday, April 21 at 2:15 - 4:00 PM and on Sunday, April 22 at 4:15 - 6:00 PM, and he will be participating in a filmmaking discussion on that Sunday from 12:30 - 1:15 PM.

Cecilia Della Peruti has played guitar for and gone on tour with acts like Beck, BØRNS, and Charli XCX. That's helped to prepare her to launch her own band, Gothic Tropic. The band has a guitar-driven 80s pop sound infused with some R&B and funk influences. Elsewhere, Gothic Tropic has been compared to Blondie, Fleetwood Mac and Haim. I had a chance to catch two sets that Gothic Tropic did at South by Southwest this year, one at the M&M house that had been set up on Rainey St. and one at the Whole Foods terrace. I liked the band's sound and was impressed that they did a handful of shows at SXSW, so I sat down with Cecilia at the tail end of the festival to do an interview. Some of the things we discuss include How growing up in a musical family shaped her artistic development What she's learned from going on tour for other bands How she collaborated with producer Todd Dahlhoff to put out her first album, Fast or Feast What she looks for in a manager and how her manager has allowed her to stay focused on the music How she worked with her team to set up and get the word out for her multiple sets at SXSW At the end of the interview, you can hear "Stronger," one of the tracks off of Gothic Tropic's Fast or Feast album. Without further ado, here is the interview I did with Cecilia Della Peruti from Gothic Tropic at SXSW 2018: [spp-player url="http://traffic.libsyn.com/nsavides/SXSW-2018-recap-nsavides-podcast.mp3"] Want to hear another interview with a band that has a guitar-driven sound?

PODCAST LA ALDEA IRREDUCTIBLECAPÍTULO 16 - CHARLES ROBERT DARWINEl próximo 12 de Febrero se cumplen 200 años del nacimiento de una de las mentes más curiosas y observadoras de la Historia de la Ciencia: Charles Darwin.Un bicentenario que no podía pasar de largo por este Podcast y al que voy a dedicar un tratamiento algo especial... Dos capítulos dedicados a repasar la vida y obra del padre de la evolución.En este primer Podcast nos centraremos en su biografía y el próximo, que espero tener preparado antes de ese 12 de Febrero, estará dedicado al viaje en el Beagle.Aprovecho la ocasión para agradecer a todos los que pasáis por este Podcast los correos que he ido recibiendo con felicitaciones o sugerencias para próximo capítulos y, también para darle las gracias a Rogelio Botanz la posibilidad de utilizar su música para acompañar este archivo sonoro de Historia y Ciencia.

PODCAST IRREDUCTIBLE 11LA TEORIA DE CUERDASVuelven los Capítulos del Podcast, y en este caso es algo especial, porque no sólo volvemos a la Ciencia sino que nos adentramos en una de las facetas más actuales de la física moderna: La Teoría de Cuerdas.Una teoría controvertida, aplaudida, criticada y una manera diferente de afrontar el Universo. Una visión revolucionaria que podría ofrecer la solución a uno de los problemas más interesantes de la Ciencia: la unificación de todas las fuerzas de la Naturaleza en una sóla Teoría Global... La Teoría del Todo.Un podcast que tenía ganas de realizar, porque es importante que se hable de Ciencia y no sólo por parte de los científicos. Es un paso que debemos dar y al igual que cualquier aficionado a un deporte puede hablar de tácticas y jugadores sin ser un especialista, sería realmente bueno, que la gente comenzara a hablar de Ciencia...La Ciencia en todos sus aspectos, biología, física, astronomía, tecnología es interesante, por mucho que se empeñen en decirnos desde la televisión... es mucho más interesante que cualquier estupido programa rosa o cualquier gran hermano... Si se consigue hacer llegar al público de una manera entretenida y fácil, la Ciencia es mucho más interesante que cualquier otro contenido de los que nos "arrojan" desde la cajatonta.Por eso, y partiendo de la base de un aficionado a la astronomía, a la física y a la Ciencia me aventuro a hablar en este Podcast de La Teoría de Cuerdas... Un paso hacia la Teoría del Todo con sus ventajas y desventajas.DESCARGAR EL PODCAST:- 66MB DESCARGA DIRECTA FORMATO .MP3 - 29MB DESCARGA DIRECTA FORMATO .OGG- 17MB DESCARGA EN FORMATO COMPRIMIDO .ZIP- 66MB DESCARGA MEDIANTE MEGAUPLOAD- DESCARGA EN OTROS FORMATOS- DESCARGA EN iTUNESTodas la música de este Podcast está bajo licencia Creative Commons:- Jaime Heras- Rob Costlow- Tryad- Evan- Jamison Young: How Far------------------------------------------------------SUSCRIBETE AL PODCAST DE HISTORIA Y CIENCIALA ALDEA IRREDUCTIBLE

Erst so lange nix, dann gleich zwei Folgen auf einmal *grin So isses halt. Auf vielfachen Wunsch unseres einzigen Hörers nochmals die Folge 26 aus unserer ersten Staffel. Schwule Väter im Waldschlösschen: Mit dieser Sonderfolge berichte ich aus dem Waldschlößchen bei Göttingen, von der Veranstaltung "Zwischen den Welten", dem Treffen schwuler Väter und deren Partner. Am Wochenende vom 12. - 14. Mai 2006 fand die Veranstaltung zum 41. mal statt. Nun war ich auch da (und die zwei darauf folgenden Treffen auch) und habe die Gelegenheit genutzt ein paar Vätern verschiedene Fragen zu stellen und diese aufzunehmen. Die Antworten habe ich bewusst nicht kommentiert und "so stehen lassen". Weitergehende Links: www.waldschloesschen.org Veranstaltung: "Zwischen den Welten" www.schwule-vaeter.org Übersicht der Selbsthilfegruppen schwuler Väter in Deutschland. Die Musik ist wie immer aus dem Podsafe-Musik Network. Passend zum Thema die Lieder "Family" und "Friends" von Rob Costlow. ...wunderschöne Klaviermusik im Stil von George Winston. Nur zu empfehlen!!!!

Die erste von drei Folgen, die komplett aus dem Rahmen fallen. Quasi ein Trilogy! Nun sind wir ja bekannt, dass wir hin uns wieder auch mal ein ernstes Thema bringen. Es ist mal wieder soweit: Mit dieser Sonderfolge berichte ich aus dem Waldschlößchen bei Göttingen, von der Veranstaltung "Zwischen den Welten", dem Treffen schwuler Väter und deren Partner. Am Wochenende vom 12. - 14. Mai 2006 fand die Veranstaltung zum 41. mal statt. Nun war ich (wie die letzten 2 Veranstaltungen) auch da und habe die Gelegenheit genutzt ein paar Vätern verschiedene Fragen zu stellen und diese aufzunehmen. Die Antworten habe ich bewusst nicht kommentiert und "so stehen lassen".

Hört aber selbst. ;-) Die Musik ist mal wieder aus dem PodSafeMusik-Network. Diesmal etwas ruhiges: "I do" von Rob Costlow ....schmacht, was für'n Frühling.
