It’s a fascinating episode of BEHIND THE LENS as we dig deep into the 4th Annual SLAMDANCE DIG with our guest, co-founder and curator of media showcase, DEKKER DREYER. Then we go in-depth with writer/director/editor ANDREW ROWE talking about his new film CROWN AND ANCHOR.
But before we get to today’s special guests, take a listen to our exclusive interview with PEPPERMINT director, PIERRE MOREL. From action to locations to cinematography to the importance of color to sound, we dig into one of the hottest action films of the year.
It’s very exciting having DEKKER DREYER join us for this episode. He’s a writer, director, producer, artist, and he loves to push the envelope with visionary melding of live performance, film, digital and interactive media, something that is the core of SLAMDANCE DIG. A showcase FREE TO THE PUBLIC in Los Angeles on September 13, 14 and 15 in the LA Arts Collective and Ace Hotel, Dekker talks about the founding of the showcase as the “next step” beyond the Slamdance Film Festival, the concept, the type of “art and technology” involved in the various exhibits, the interactive nature of them, not to mention the various panels being presented which are also open to the public.
Then ANDREW ROWE joins us talking about his first feature film, CROWN AND ANCHOR. Already opening to critical and public acclaim, listen as Andrew talks about story development, the visual design and working with his cinematographer, the use of punk rock for the soundtrack and how the music serves to help define and craft each of the two main characters, crafting not only two integral character studies but the world in which they exist and then developing distinguishing differentials, and of course, casting and working with a veteran like Stephen McHattie.
