EPISODE 209: FUN FILMS

"3 AM"

Airs Feb 25 at 9:00pm
Featuring "3 AM," "Tolerance," "Light the Tree," and "Pickles" with Andy Bailey, Mark Hedengren, Bryce Randle, Jackson Barlow, Jacob Moffat, Jared Cardon, and Derek Pueblo with faculty hosts Brad Barber and Jeff Parkin.

These films are short and fun--often the result of spontaneity and a love of making movies. Their narratives range from a high stakes night of making a sandwich to a bizarre late night conversation between two tired friends. Two of the pieces, "Tolerance" and "Light the Tree" developed from the demanding "24 Hour Filmmaking Marathon" at the LDS Film Festival, where participants write, shoot, and edit a short film in 24 hours.

EPISODE 205: COMEDIC NARRATIVES: MISFITS & OUTSIDERS

"285: The Movie"

Featured "285: The Movie" and "Hoagies" with filmmakers Matt Kammerer, Tyler Weston, and Brandon Arnold with faculty member Jeff Parkin

In this episode we feature two unique comedic narratives. "285: The Movie" and "Hoagies" both reflect a sense of funmaking in the process of filmmaking. While humorous, they emerged from classroom discussions on film history and aesthetics, at times even commenting on larger issues than may initially meet the eye. The filmmakers join us to discuss the genesis for their work, the traditions they were drawing on, as well as how some of the films' quirky characters came to life on screen.
