BEHIND THE LENS – May 22, 2017 – SHOW #121 (VIDEO)

Featuring special guests:  BYRON BEANE and STANLEY JACOBS.

An entertaining, enlightening and fun BEHIND THE LENS with producer/talent manager BYRON BEANE in town from NY to co-pilot the show.  And what a show!  Always a delight to have Byron on board,  his industry expertise as a producer and talent manager adds such a great dynamic to every interview and discussion and does so with this episode.

Joining us live at the mid-point of the show is STANLEY JACOBS, writer/director/producer and jack-of-all-trades of 96 SOULS!  Filmmakers will appreciate hearing what Stanley has to say about his filmmaking process, putting out a quality film with a very minimal budget, casting  a film without benefit of a casting agent and some resources to aid you, the visual design and benefits of the Red Dragon camera and Leica lens for in-camera visual effects, plus things he learned that will change his approach in the future.

Also, hilarity ensues as we hear clips of Kevin Hart, Thomas Middleditch and Ed Helms as they chime in at the recent press conference about CAPTAIN UNDERPANTS: THE FIRST EPIC MOVIE.  And we get a bit serious talking about the upcoming MEGAN LEAVEY directed by Gabriela Cowperthwaite.  Marking her narrative directorial debut and follow-up to her award-winning “Blackfish”, hear Gabriela in her exclusive interview with film critic debbie elias talk about her decision to make MEGAN LEAVEY and what makes it a perfect fit for her.
