It’s a busy episode of #BTLRadioShow as we’re talking Oscar nominations, plus. . .
ALEXANDRA LORETH and KEVIN PONTUTI are live talking about their new film making its world premiere at the virtual Cinequest Film Festival, THE YELLOW WALLPAPER. Mesmerizing and hypnotic, the film dazzles with its meticulous and methodical sound design and rich cinematography. Take a listen as we dive into not only the excitement and anticipation of a world premiere but “the making of” THE YELLOW WALLPAPER, starting with the challenges of adapting this acclaimed gothic feminist horror story by Charlotte Perkins Gilman which essentially takes place in the mind of the protagonist, giving a fully tapestried identity to her, and then crafting meticulous tactical visuals that bring the story to life. In addition to discussing the stunning and metaphoric visual design both from a cinematographic and production design standpoint, we delve into the use of sound and the film’s overall soundscape, all of which fuel the pacing as it progressively spirals into frenzied intensity. This is definitely one of my “Must See Films” of 2021!
And then RYAN BARTON-GRIMLEY is back with us talking about one of my indie faves of 2020, HAWK & REV: VAMPIRE SLAYERS, which now has distribution and is available on VOD and DVD. While everyone will enjoy Ryan’s neverending amiability and sense of humor, filmmakers, in particular, will appreciate some of Ryan’s pearls of wisdom on making the “lo budget/no budget/micro budget” indie and the challenges to anticipate when trying to get the film to market. Some valuable lessons to be learned today.
