Devin Montgomery: Master of Shout Outs

We hang with actor and filmmaker Devin Montgomery and dig into how he stops waiting for permission, builds Monsters Within from a personal core, and learns every step of the indie film process by doing the work. We also spiral into community talk, post-production realities, and the kind of chaotic side segments that keep our brains broken in the best way. 
• Devin’s Air Force upbringing and how it shapes discipline and creativity 
• Starting acting later, training hard, and turning auditions into momentum 
• The 2020 reset and the decision to create instead of waiting 
• The origin of Monsters Within and using horror to explore PTSD and trauma 
• Making shorts and features with tiny crews, limited locations, and real constraints 
• Dealing with flaky collaborators, protecting integrity, and finishing what you start 
• Film festival politics, building an audience, and landing streaming distribution 
• What makes a horror movie work, fear on screen vs fear in your head 
• Tulsa vs OKC film community and why supportive networks matter 
• Post-production lessons on sound, foley, color grading, storage, and workflow 
• AI visualization tools, gear rabbit holes, and staying ready with classes and stunts 
• Toilet talks and TikTok talent show reactions that go completely off the rails

SPEAKER_30 4:31

I first learned about Devin when he was kind of doing a marketing push for Monsters Within. Yeah. And um watched the trailer and everything, and I got I got excited to see what you had cooked up. And it's a great film. I love the the premise of what you're talking about with a uh veteran dealing with PTSD. Um, and so I reached out to Devin and told him how much I enjoyed the film. It was great and congrats on its success. But you've had more success since with other projects and which we'll get into. Yeah.

SPEAKER_13 5:12

It's been a crazy ride.

SPEAKER_30 5:14

I thought it was awesome that we had a local filmmaker that said, you know what? F it. I'm gonna make my movie. And I hope we all can get to that point. Yeah. You know, because I have ideas, I know you do. Yeah. And uh Yeah. So kind of using Devin kind of like a blueprint, like, hey, man, you did it the right way. It looks great. Um cinematography was great, outstanding. And so I actually took Spencer, Spencer Sakurai. Sakurai. Sakurai was DP on that project, and I took his DP mindset uh course and then met him when I got cast for a Super Bowl commercial.

SPEAKER_14 6:05

Oh, okay.

SPEAKER_30 6:06

Yeah, yeah. So that was cool. Um LED wall, right? LED wall. LED wall. Yep, it was a boxing ring kind of setup. It was really neat. Uh but the commercial only showed like down in the Houston, greater Houston, maybe Dallas, like Texas area. So did get to see it, but it wasn't like family was gonna watch the game and see me. But anyway. So Devin. Yeah.

SPEAKER_29 7:17

Hello, hello, hello, hello. Oh boy. It's always tech issues. It is always hilarious.

SPEAKER_36 7:25

SPEAKER_32 7:35

Well we'll see. We'll see what happens. That's unfortunate. Share some headphones.

SPEAKER_30 7:40

But yeah, keep going. Wait, while I troubleshoot this real fast. You know, plug it in or unplug it.

SPEAKER_13 7:47

Right. Turn it on, turn it off.

SPEAKER_36 8:10

Maybe maybe Devin and I are related because we both just did the But it had.

SPEAKER_13 8:17

Did you the one thing with film, tech, whatever it is, whatever can go wrong will. And the thing is to power through it, which we did. That's right. We did. So we've already got over the hump. You know what? So that that means it's it's gonna be a great podcast.

SPEAKER_36 8:31

I mean it's it can't get worse, can't it?

unknown 8:34

Wait.

SPEAKER_30 8:35

We just lost power. I will get everything set an hour before the show. Everything's working, everything's fine, and then every once in a while. I would I would say every once in a while, but almost every episode, it's like something wants to lose its mind.

SPEAKER_36 8:54

I feel like people could turn that segment of the podcast into its own like drinking game or something.

SPEAKER_14 9:02

How many times our podcast? I like that and I'm done.

SPEAKER_36 9:06

See?

SPEAKER_14 9:08

SPEAKER_14 9:11

Sorry.

SPEAKER_30 9:12

I get troubleshooting, I lose my own. Okay, here we go.

SPEAKER_36 9:16

Air Force Kid.

SPEAKER_13 9:17

Air Force That's right. Born in Nebraska. Adopted Nebraska when I was born. That's cool. And then parents immediately got shipped to Germany.

SPEAKER_36 9:26

Me too! Where where were you at?

SPEAKER_13 9:29

Uh is near Dachau. I can't remember the name of the base. The only thing I remember from it, too, is rocks in our garden. That's fair. Like no grass. We live. Just a lot of rocks. I can't remember the name of the base.

SPEAKER_36 9:45

It was tiny and it shut down, and that's why we left it. Okay.

SPEAKER_30 9:48

I don't know any Air Force bases other than Rammstein.

SPEAKER_13 9:54

I can like see my dad saying the name, but it's only it it hasn't got to the front of the brain yet. It'll come to me in like an hour, probably.

SPEAKER_11 10:02

And I'll just say, and then it's gonna be like rewiring there.

SPEAKER_13 10:16

Exactly. Exactly. Unplug that. I can hear him saying it, but that's funny. There we go.

unknown 10:20

And we're back.

SPEAKER_13 10:21

But yeah, so uh moved to Germany and we were there for like two, three years. And then it's funny when you were talking earlier about the flight to Germany. I I that's like one of my earliest memories is the plane and just the sound and just crying because of just how like I I just that's one of my very first memories. But yeah, so we were in Germany and then came back to the US and then pretty much bounced around between Maryland, Virginia, Texas, Florida, went back to Virginia, went back to Texas, and then after a while, my dad he retired at Tinker. So yeah, he did he did 30 years, my mom did 20 years. Oh, they were both in. That's cool, that's super cool. They after they got married, they got shipped to Hawaii for two years, and so they call that their honeymoon. And I'm like, I couldn't have been adopted and gone to Hawaii. Like, come on now.

SPEAKER_36 11:15

Really just said Nebraska sounds like that. Exactly. Nebraska.

SPEAKER_13 11:19

Germany.

SPEAKER_36 11:20

That's right.

SPEAKER_14 11:20

I love our German fans.

SPEAKER_36 11:22

All four of you.

SPEAKER_14 11:23

Yeah. No, we there's do we have German fans? Oh yeah. Oh yeah. Oh yeah.

SPEAKER_32 11:28

I was gonna say there's the Philippines. That's not the Philippines, not the Philippines. Pump up those numbers.

SPEAKER_14 11:36

Deutschling.

SPEAKER_30 11:37

Pump up those numbers. No, but yeah. Um on that topic, the podcast, it's it's cool to see analytics where how many countries are listening to us and it's everywhere. Nice. I mean, little places. Thailand, New Zealand, Bangladesh.

SPEAKER_14 12:00

It's a big audience. Bangladesh. Appreciate you guys. Bangladesh is nice, yeah. Is that big?

SPEAKER_36 12:05

I don't I mean, it has a lot of letters in it. I feel like it's sounds based.

SPEAKER_16 12:10

But that would have been a good idea. Oh yeah.

SPEAKER_36 12:14

Wait, can you use property?

SPEAKER_32 12:15

I saw that in my head too.

SPEAKER_30 12:18

So the all words are on the table.

SPEAKER_13 12:20

Right.

SPEAKER_30 12:21

So when when did you get into any kind of acting?

SPEAKER_13 12:24

Yeah, so it wasn't really till college because I went to a lot of like small private schools. And like where I went to uh it's called Harvest Hills Christian School in Yukon, but it's like right on the borderline between Yukon and Oklahoma. But it was K5 to 12th grade. So my only real experience with acting was they recruited us or made us, I should say, help out in like the elementary school plays, and just like as the kids are doing their play, we're in the back is like the choir or stand, whatever. And then I just remember holding up signs of being like 12 hours later, or like, you know, that classic thing. Exactly.

SPEAKER_26 13:01

You were the tall trees in the floor.

SPEAKER_13 13:03

At that moment, I was like, I like this. I like because I I just remember, you know, especially as a kind of a sarcastic rebel, I would kind of do exactly the opposite of what they would tell me, but then that got the crowd more into it. And then so afterwards, I'm like, see, this is how it's done. I know all things.

SPEAKER_36 13:24

Are you an only child?

SPEAKER_13 13:26

No.

SPEAKER_36 13:26

Ah no. You gave me only child energy. I thought we were really on the same page, but whatever, we're not on the same page. So now, yeah, we've lost.

SPEAKER_13 13:34

We're done.

unknown 13:34

Oh no.

SPEAKER_13 13:35

It's over. It was a good run, though.

SPEAKER_36 13:37

That was a short romance.

SPEAKER_30 13:39

I had fun. I had fun. Nice try. It was a worthy effort.

SPEAKER_14 13:43

It was. It was. But yeah, not till college. Not till college. Yeah.

SPEAKER_30 13:47

When when did I trying to think? So when did you actually make it like a profession?

SPEAKER_13 13:56

Hmm. Yeah, so I would say uh I took Daryl Cox's uh camera class. Um I had a discussion with him after one of the classes, and I was toying around with moving. So I was in a relationship, and so she was going down to Dallas. And at the time there was and it's still kind of similar, but like they're they they had a a little bit more going on filming than we did here, but it was mainly like commercials and things like that. Uh so I had a conversation with Daryl, he gave me a referral because I guess he liked what I was doing in his class. So I got with the same Texas agent that he had, and then just really started to actually get like bigger auditions, and and that was like a real introduction of like, okay, I'm just kind of like trial by fire, and that that's kind of like how I learned how to do things. Yeah. Um, but yeah, it was it, it's I slowly started to build up a little bit of momentum, and then I booked this World War II film that uh turned into a documentary, but they were gonna go play at like IMAX's IMAX screens and all that, and they had the premiere of it at uh Oshkosh, this big air show called EAA, and they premiered it in a World War II bunker. Oh and it was like an amazing experience. It was very cool. And the thing about that though is a lot of people that go there, they bring their private plane. So obviously, a lot of people there with money just have oh, my I'm gonna bring my private plane, and just but it's cool because they would like camp next to the planes.

SPEAKER_36 15:30

Can you imagine a drive-in with private jets? That's what I'm picturing.

SPEAKER_13 15:36

It's very similar to that, yeah. Because they they would line it up and then have parties, yeah. And uh it because it was in Oshkosh, and the only time I'd ever heard of that was like the the clothes. The clothes I kept saying that as a joke. It got old really quick, I guess. I guess they hear that a lot. Probably I thought I thought it was exactly. I'm like, Bagosh, it didn't go over well there, but um did not like it exactly, but yeah, after that experience, I that was the first time I really saw something kind of like in that magnitude of like okay, people are responding well to like the scenes and stuff, and it was very cool because it was about the wasp pilots, and there was one wasp pilot left, and we did a pre-screening just for her. It was and there was also a Red Tails member that was there. That's cool. And so, like the history of it all was just like amazing and learning about all of that, and then also you know, acting in the scene, wearing like the actual stuff that they were wearing. Like, I just found all of that so fascinating. But she came up to me and she I in I'm kind of playing like an asshole pilot in the in the thing, and I've kind of given some shit to the the female pilots, and uh she she came to me afterwards and she like kind of she's like, Hey, you come over here and she's like, You're lucky, you're cute, because like she's like that reminds me.

SPEAKER_11 16:56

She gave me a little smack, and I was like, that that's uh that made my career right now.

SPEAKER_13 17:01

Yeah, like I feel good about that then, but um, yeah, it wasn't until that moment where I was like, Okay, like I feel like this is really something I want to pursue because I I love that history aspect telling important stories, telling stories that are very meaningful to a lot of people. But then, of course, as we all know, what happened in 2020, yeah, there's something that just made the world go hit pause. And so with all that momentum, I saw how the world just and even in people's careers and like just everybody in general, it was like everything just stopped. And a lot of people just didn't know what was going to continue, what was gonna happen, and projects that I had been auditioning for got close to, things like that, and even other actors that I met that were like really kind of ascending that like co-star, getting bigger speaking roles, everything everybody was just like back on the same playing field, and all of those things that potentially could have like if that had never happened, who knows what would have happened, but I just saw that there was like no control, and so something clicked in 2020 where I was just like, Well, I'm tired of sitting around and waiting. And then I heard somebody say once, uh, why wait around for somebody to yell action when you can do it? Yeah, and that just like really spoke to me. Yeah, and so I yeah, there was just one night I just wanted to film something for my demo reel because I was like, I'm just I want to film something. I had just gotten a camera. I was doing, I don't know if you guys kind of did the same thing in 2020. I was doing a lot of acting classes online because it did open up some ways where I was, you know, you could like take classes from teachers in LA, New York, yeah, Austin. There's a um Carol Hickey acting studio in Austin. I did a it was originally only gonna be a four-week class, but she was

Finding Acting Through School And College

SPEAKER_13 18:45

like drill sergeant, like she's like, I I see something in you and I'm going to push you. And I was I respond very well to that, you know. I guess growing up in the military aspect, I guess. But yeah, she she pushed me. And there I I'm I'm and I'm totally fine with that as long as I know the intentions are you you want to build me back up. Yeah, but she it was the first time with an acting class too. I don't know if you ever took any of the Matthew Berry classes, oh yeah, where he was kind of had that similar mentality of like, you know, but it's it's all to build you back up. But it was in that moment where I was like, okay, like I can feel the growth just in like that for so I it continued for a couple more months. That's good.

SPEAKER_30 19:28

Yeah. The that time 2020, as awful as it was, and how maybe um unknown, it brought up a lot of unknowns, like what's gonna happen. Yeah, but beautiful things came out of it for us because this podcast was born during that during that nice. And that actually for me, that that kind of pushed me into acting because about uh a year or two before that I had started stand-up comedy. Okay, yeah, and so I was I was grinding that constantly in the boom 2020. That kind of puttered out a little bit. Uh I did a few online shows. Oh, okay. There's a lot of Zoom comedy shows kind of going around, and and I did one in my uh in my living room, and uh, I mean, it was a whole setup.

SPEAKER_36 20:29

Y'all, if so quarantine hit us completely opposite. He was like, I'm not allowed to leave my house.

SPEAKER_30 20:39

Fuck, yes, that was kind of awesome.

SPEAKER_36 20:42

The best day of his life. I, on the other hand, was like, I'm gonna claw through the drywall.

SPEAKER_11 20:46

That's how I feel.

SPEAKER_36 20:47

I hate it here. So then when uh this digital show or virtual show or whatever came up, and he and I both went ballistic about over planning and creating and black buying shit that we never used again. But it was awesome in the garage.

SPEAKER_15 21:11

It was awesome. It was awesome.

SPEAKER_36 21:13

That's all that mattered. It was fun though. Like, I mean because I I don't do stand-up, sitting, I just sit and watch, and it was it was just really fun to see um him and uh friend who shall not be named anymore because he's dead to us. Uh he also did a set. In there, uh but then there were other people, yeah, and it was it was a really cool thing, and it was one of those like you know, we're used to like the Oklahoma standard. Yeah, you know, people just like rise up and we do this good good shit together or whatever. It was one of those, like it was like a teeny tiny microverse of that where it was like, We're not doing this for any purpose other than like people need to see other people's faces. Yeah, and it was just it was a really cool that was one we put together.

SPEAKER_30 21:57

Yeah, we did that one and then uh I did another one. And it was kind of my first headlining gig, I guess. Uh some other guy put on a a show with quite a few comedians, and and I was a headliner of that, so that was fun too. But then that led to I like this creativity I have here. Right. And the stand-up got a little the grind was just too heavy. Um a lot of open mics where you need to go and and and get your timing and your rhythm and what works, what doesn't work, which isn't always done through uh an open mic because trying to perform in front of other stand-ups that are competing for spots.

SPEAKER_13 22:48

That can be I can see how that can be tricky.

SPEAKER_30 22:50

Yeah it's kind of weird. They're not probably going to laugh that much. Yeah.

SPEAKER_36 22:55

Like sitting in the audience and watching other comics in the audience, watching a comic on stage, just it was just really gross. Just the people were not good supportive people.

SPEAKER_30 23:11

Yeah.

SPEAKER_36 23:11

And the ones who were they're still doing it, they're still doing it, and they're doing great, but like, good God. It was gross. And it was late.

SPEAKER_30 23:20

They like the late night. Late night. I had to keep my full-time job. And so those open mics starting at 9, 8:30, 9 30, whatever it is. And there could be 20 comics that have signed up, and you might have got there late, and now you're number 20. Yeah. And you're going on at you know, midnight. Absolutely.

SPEAKER_36 23:44

And everyone's on a Wednesday.

SPEAKER_30 23:46

Yeah. And everyone's left. So you're doing what you could have done at home. Yeah. Talking to the wall. Open the bartender is laughing. Right. Yeah. They shut down. They never laughed.

SPEAKER_36 23:57

Oh my god.

SPEAKER_15 23:58

Oh, yeah.

SPEAKER_36 23:58

Poor bartenders. I feel bad for them. The guy that worked upstairs at JJ's.

SPEAKER_15 24:03

Yeah. Like JJ. I do love JJ's. I like JJ's.

SPEAKER_36 24:06

I miss JJ's. Yeah. Big Gate Nate. That's right. Uh, shout out Big Gate Nate. Hope you are. We'll come see me soon. Uh he got to hear all the shit. All of it. And he was like, Yeah. And there were there'd be certain comedians that would get up on stage or like sign up for open mic, and he's like, book. Because he knew that that guy was gonna be doing coke in the bathroom and taking shots of shit that ought not be shot ever.

SPEAKER_30 24:34

That was part of it too. A lot of them want to the party aspect of it. And and and starting something like that, stand-up's been a dream of mine, acting's been a dream. I started late in life, and it's like I don't have time to fuck around. Right. Like I need to go in and kill every set, no matter if it's an open mic or a true gig. Yeah. I can't I can't fuck around. Yeah. And that wasn't what the scene was like back when I was in it necessarily. It wasn't super supportive. Yeah. Um, and so I I stepped back. I was like, okay, I'm I'm I can do this. Like I try to have conversations with other stand-ups too, like after the show or before the show, and it was always a competition of who can be funnier in the conversation. And it was like, ah, it's just exhausting. Yeah, it is exhausting. Like, dude, I just kind of want to find out where you're from and kind of what you do, you know, other than stand-up.

SPEAKER_11 25:39

But um they're like trying out material, right?

SPEAKER_30 25:42

Yeah. So then um a friend of mine, he had gotten um or he shared with me this thing called dinner detective. And it's like a murder mystery theater thing. Oh, okay. Yeah, those are fun. Yeah, yeah. And so you can uh they had auditions, and I was like, ooh, let's do it. And uh a lot of

Getting An Agent And First Real Bookings

SPEAKER_30 26:05

improv during kind of the audition, and that was so fun. I was I was in my element then and I got cast, and so I did that for for a little while, not a super long time, about six months though, yeah. Nice, and uh made a little bit of money and was like, dude, okay, I think this is this is the door to the acting world, right? And I want to act because this is a little this is fun. I got to perform in front of a lot of people again, so it kind of scratched that itch of entertaining people, but I need something else. Yeah, and uh a comedian friend of mine like booked a commercial, okay, and I was like, hey, how'd you get into that? And and she had said she got signed by Real Talent Studio, and uh I was like, Oh, you have an agent. Okay, let me check this out. Right. So then uh went to Real Talent's website, uh did a little submission, sent in some stand-up videos, and then uh Christina at the time was the owner, yeah, and she was like, Hey, uh let me see a monologue. Find you a monologue and give me a monologue. I I want to see how your acting truly is. And I was like, then I got stage fright. And it it took me months to get it done. I was so nervous. I was so nervous about the rejection because I knew I'd never really professionally officially acted, you know, in that sense of like film and TV. Yeah, and I put it off for months. And finally I was like, all right, we're doing it. And then I got signed. And that's that's the thing.

SPEAKER_36 28:08

He got like, I mean, of course, it's not like an audition, but it's kind of an audition, right? Um but he like nailed it in one take, and I'm like, bitch, why did it take so long? Why did you wait so damn long?

SPEAKER_32 28:23

You could have been making me money, right?

SPEAKER_36 28:25

Like you're when do I get to quit and be a stay-at-home dog mom? That's all I want to know.

SPEAKER_30 28:31

Well, I want to be a stay-at-home dog dad, so we're competing. Where's your monologue, right? Who's playing dogs? I don't even want to hear who's playing the lottery.

SPEAKER_36 28:41

SPEAKER_11 30:08

SPEAKER_36 30:18

Sounds like a refill's coming, so you said you're a fat drinker, your kitchen's empty.

SPEAKER_11 30:23

I was trying to conserve.

SPEAKER_36 30:25

That's silly.

SPEAKER_30 30:27

You talked about college. You didn't get into acting until college. This guy disturbed Brian. Yes. I did. I did. Good. Yeah. Yes. My master's degree. Thank you. Where's that button? I know that was hard work. Where's your boss?

SPEAKER_14 30:44

SPEAKER_05 30:57

Oh thank you, sir.

SPEAKER_26 30:58

SPEAKER_32 31:01

I was gonna say it though. It works.

SPEAKER_01 31:04

I'm gonna close this so I bring it all back.

SPEAKER_30 31:07

Yep. Yeah, nice. And what what's the master's in uh business management and leadership?

SPEAKER_32 31:12

Nice. So and like we were talking earlier, now it's determining whether or not I go get my doctorate just so people have to call me doctor. Dude, for no other purpose other than that.

SPEAKER_36 31:24

That's um it's all I want, but this is for mine.

SPEAKER_32 31:27

It's like dissertation, 300 plus pages. Like I see, I I don't have that much to say. Uh so it'll be 50 pages and it'll be like this is what it is, and I'll defend it for three days, but it's you know, um but no, I also um before I got into do the master's stuff, I got into uh the LA Film School. And so I am kind of debating on whether or not doing that, and and okay. So it's you can do it, it's they do part of it online and it's uh um see.

SPEAKER_13 31:58

I was gonna say that's I've I've heard of like people that are doing stuff at like USC, UCLA, and a lot of it now it's online, so that's kind of cool.

SPEAKER_32 32:06

So the the LA Film School is cool because they part of the package that you you get cameras, all of the equipment equipment, MacBooks, all of the editing software is all really sent to you as part of it. Wow. Go through. So I'm like, that equipment would be worth doing that.

SPEAKER_36 32:26

No doctorate program is giving you anything. Right. They'll give you a fancy hat at the end and uh and then the letters.

SPEAKER_30 32:32

And then a yeah, and then the letters and then probably a doctor would be cool because it would be like the first doctor on the podcast. Yeah. That would be cool.

SPEAKER_36 32:42

Wait, now I feel like there's a race. Who's gonna be the first doctor on the podcast? Hey, do you want to get your doctorate in education and then we can just do it together?

SPEAKER_32 32:51

Not at all. Not at all. Not at all.

SPEAKER_36 32:57

Organizational leadership, education, adult education.

SPEAKER_32 33:02

Listen, if if they haven't been educated at that point, I I No, that's my whole life. You're not the guy. I'm not. I am not the guy. I don't want to the reason I haven't run for political office is because this would be my permanent face. You can't be this dumb. Like you and those burner accounts for the Spurs House. Yeah, yeah. Well, I haven't made those yet. The Greyhounds for the Scottish fans are coming.

SPEAKER_30 33:30

It's pathetic watching the I saw a TikTok of a kid that was uh it was the first half that he had watched. I didn't watch it the second part of it, but he was a Spurs fan. And oh my god, just to hear him cheering like crazy because they got that 15-point lead early, and then they start losing, and he's like, Oh my god, they're getting hit in the face.

SPEAKER_36 33:56

Okay, so when you say kid, was this an actual child or just a young adult?

SPEAKER_30 34:00

Yeah, he was eight, and I was like, God, you're just no, no, no. Man, yeah, probably still time for the line, though.

SPEAKER_36 34:09

I mean, let your balls drop, or whatever.

SPEAKER_30 34:11

Probably I wasn't gonna go that far, but 17, 18, you know, something like Pinurita.

SPEAKER_32 34:16

But it was it's like 15.

SPEAKER_30 34:17

It'll get you going.

SPEAKER_32 34:18

I would love to believe it on the Pinoritas. And they're like, it was the officials, they got in a 30-point swing. A 30-point swing. Shea didn't shoot a free throw until the second half. Wimby didn't hit a two-point shot until the third quarter, and you're going to talk about it's the officials.

SPEAKER_30 34:34

Well, maybe it's also because didn't the Thunder shoot like 47% from three-point? They did last night. Yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_32 34:42

I was gonna say last night.

SPEAKER_30 34:43

Last night they shot well, but when you bring three guys at Shay Gill, I mean, like, people are open and hey, hey, Spurs fans. I know you're Texas, and you probably are ranked a little higher in education than Oklahoma. Hey, but if three guys, if three guys are triple teaming Shay, easy math says there's probably two guys open. Yeah. Right.

SPEAKER_36 35:11

Oh, because there's five guys.

SPEAKER_30 35:13

There's yeah.

unknown 35:14

Got it.

SPEAKER_30 35:14

Yeah. Five on the floor. What are you from? Texas?

SPEAKER_36 35:18

I'm an athlete.

SPEAKER_30 35:19

Oh, God. Let's not let's not start. You were you were in athletics. You were not an athlete.

SPEAKER_36 35:29

My letter jacket says otherwise. Hey.

SPEAKER_13 35:32

Letter jacket. That's it right there.

SPEAKER_36 35:34

Did you go to Allstate?

SPEAKER_32 35:36

I don't think so. Can you prove she wasn't?

SPEAKER_36 35:39

An athlete?

SPEAKER_32 35:39

Yeah.

SPEAKER_36 35:40

I can prove I was.

SPEAKER_32 35:43

We got video footage. Oh, yeah. Roll that beautiful bean.

SPEAKER_30 35:48

Oh yeah. Let's show the foot race. This will be easy. Shut up.

SPEAKER_32 35:52

It's gonna be like Martin Lawrence and Will Smith running in that last bad boys movie. Yes.

SPEAKER_36 35:58

Oh yeah. That's painfully accurate.

SPEAKER_30 36:02

One of the things I wanted to do and show on the podcast was uh driving to her parents' house a while ago, there was a one of those uh little things they put on the side of the road that detects speed limit and so it shows your speed. Yeah. I wanted to have a uh foot race run by it and see how fast each other was. I also want to do like an obstacle course because she said she can Ninja Warrior. She can at least keep up equal my time.

SPEAKER_36 36:37

I said I could keep up with you. I never said I could beat you.

SPEAKER_30 36:41

I said, Well, he said equal.

SPEAKER_36 36:43

He doesn't equal he's old and he doesn't remember what he says.

SPEAKER_30 36:48

Equal means keep up.

SPEAKER_36 36:50

Keep up. No, even if you beat me, it would be barely by any barely by any point.

SPEAKER_32 36:56

It doesn't count if you and you like time is the you know added to if you don't yell gore every time you go to a there. I mean, I feel like you don't get a handicap.

SPEAKER_36 37:07

I should, I'm only 5'2. I feel like my short legs give me a handicap.

SPEAKER_32 37:12

There are a whole lot of people nowadays that are fighting for equality. So 5'2 doesn't matter.

SPEAKER_36 37:18

I'm sorry, you're tall. You you tell me about your vertical privilege.

SPEAKER_30 37:24

Vertical privilege. Vertical privilege.

SPEAKER_36 37:26

Yeah. All y'all. White male vertical privilege.

SPEAKER_30 37:30

All right. Well, I'm gonna jump out of this academic.

SPEAKER_32 37:35

One more thing to apologize for. Yeah, right.

SPEAKER_36 37:39

I expect a list at the end.

SPEAKER_13 37:41

I'm gonna chug this and then uh then we'll have a conversation.

SPEAKER_32 37:46

There we go. We're all saying I like the boot. All of us are getting an email about that truck card. I like that.

unknown 37:56

Yeah.

SPEAKER_32 37:58

So the boot. So the boot. I like the boot out of the boot.

SPEAKER_36 38:01

See, I think we should do a public system for monsters of thing.

SPEAKER_13 38:05

I had a meeting. I had a meeting. She's like, you got a lot. HR and everything. We can do this. We can do this.

SPEAKER_36 38:12

We should do a live pod at Truckyard.

SPEAKER_13 38:16

I like that. I saw the wheels turn and I was like, that is a fantastic idea.

SPEAKER_30 38:20

I wouldn't want to take this, but I do have another uh I do

2020 Hits And Momentum Stops

SPEAKER_30 38:25

have another one up here.

SPEAKER_13 38:26

Which there is a singer that sings at Truckyard. His name is Ben McKenzie. Ooh. Amazing guy. Shout out to Ben McKenzie tag Ben McKenzie.

SPEAKER_36 38:35

What kind of music?

SPEAKER_13 38:36

Very soulful kind of just I don't want to say country, but it's like just that soulful.

SPEAKER_36 38:44

Nice.

SPEAKER_13 38:44

We heard indie.

SPEAKER_30 38:46

We heard one band or a duet. A duet of young people. Two guys. I don't remember their name though.

SPEAKER_36 38:54

Did they say their name? I don't know. I don't think so. They were young enough. They were young enough that someone said someone shouted like, play something from the 90s, and they were like, I think this is from the 90s. And I was like, oh no, no, you're so young. Go away.

SPEAKER_30 39:10

It's too young to be broke. So where did uh changing the subject off athletics still? Um politics. Where did that where did the idea for monsters within come from? Where did you get inspired from for that?

SPEAKER_13 39:25

So I I never was like interested in filmmaking or directing, like for myself. I love always loved movies growing up, but um I toyed around with the idea because horror is my favorite genre. So I there was a time in like 2016 or 15, there was a group of people that I was friends with at the time. One guy said he was a cinematographer and he had a camera and all that, and I was like, we had this crazy experience, which is a whole nother story with the Ouija board. But we had this crazy experience with this Ouija board. We're gonna bookmark that and come right back around to so I remember after that night, the next day, like we were all just like, what the fuck? And I immediately was like, we have to make this into something. And I especially at the time, found footage was very yeah, yeah, yeah. And I feel like it's kind of making it a comeback lately, which is kind of interesting. But uh, so I toyed around with this idea of making this short film, and it it was half found footage, half shot like a normal movie, but I had absolutely no fucking clue what I was doing, neither did any of these other people, and we all just kind of somehow made it. And I that was my first experience with like editing and things like that. Yeah. Well I somehow that was like logged in my brain of that was interesting. I submitted it to a couple film festivals, it played, didn't really it played out a couple, didn't really do anything though. But because of 2020, um my sister was going through some health issues at the time. And she's she's getting better now, but she's like my inspiration in life. She has Down syndrome, and she's just like the things that I've seen her go through. I'm like, man, this is like something in there that I think a lot of people could relate to. I think a lot of people are kind of going through similar things, and then I just saw the way that after 2020, and even in 2020, but like especially then, it just felt like they had this everybody had this proverbial like monster they were kind of like trying to get away from, whether that was just the uncertainty of the future, maybe people in their lives were having health issues, things like that. PTSD is a big thing. I was learning a lot more about PTSD, and as I got older, uh it made sense. Like my dad has PTSD, and so at military bases, I just remember the look on a lot of guys' faces as a kid, not really knowing what, but as you get older, a lot of stuff makes sense. But there was an instant where there was one night um a veteran or like a guy that was on base, he took his life that night. And I remember as a kid, like we were on the same street, and like that just you know, as a kid, it just doesn't, you can't really wrap your head around it. But as you get older and learn about things, so I had all these things that have always been very impactful in like my brain, and and I I've wanted to tell a certain story, but I just didn't know what that was. Well, in 2020, something just clicked, and I knew I wanted to do something where it was like a horror thriller movie, but also because I love horror movies that have a lot of heart in them or like have like a very specific message that they want to say, but it's just symbolized with the concept of in a horror movie. And I I love movies that that have that thought. It doesn't even have to be just horror movies, but for me specifically, so I just had this idea, and there was a night I had a dream where this soldier was in this kind of like desert wasteland, just completely by himself. But he didn't have his weapons, he didn't have anything, but he was in his soldier gear, he was in this desert, and it was like I don't know, just that concept of just him being alone, not knowing where he's going, feeling very afraid. It was very like artsy too. Like there's a lot of just stuff going on, but I just kept, yeah, I kept seeing that in my brain, and then randomly I was playing um The Last of Us Part Two, and I just kept seeing this backpack, you know, the character Ellie. Yeah, as she's just like, You're you know, you're going on this journey with her. I kept seeing her backpack, and then somehow I just connected the idea of like somebody running towards something or away from something, or the idea of how far would you go to protect someone that you love? Like, what would you really do? And so, yeah, we we it's so interesting too, is because what I was talking about earlier, we're going back. See, we uh I wanted to shoot something for my demo reel. And so I had my dad hold hold this camera, and I'm running around the backyard. Like I I at the time I was like, Is this gonna be like a zombie thing? So I was gonna add in all these effects, but I was just Things that I had seen in my head I wanted to try. I was just like totally, let's just try it. Yeah. And so I'm like rolling around on the ground. I'm having him like follow me, chasing me. I'm running around corners. It was just, I wish I still had the original. I probably do somewhere, but it was just it was crazy. But with the power of editing, adding effects, music, all this, I sent it to a friend who had a little bit more experience and knowledge with like, and he was just like, What was that? And I was like, Yeah, I know. And he was like, No, like that was interesting. And he's like, You filmed this? And I'm like, Well, my dad did, but I was the director. But also, give me some credit. But I'm like, no, I just, you know, I have more line credits than he does.

SPEAKER_36 44:44

Exactly.

SPEAKER_13 44:44

But he was just like, Um, well, what what do you want to do with this? And uh, because he, I guess, was very inspired by it. And he was like, I I kind of want to like refilm it because lighting and all that type stuff. He was thinking about that. So we filmed another version of it and had no real plan other than like probably demo reel, something like that. But then when I edit it together, did a couple things, he was just like, What if we just make this into a short film and then submit it? And then he's like, Do you have an idea? And I was like, Oh yes, I do. Uh, but I was like, I don't know how to everything that was in my head. I was like, I there's there's no way I can like logistically even uh monetarily pull this off with just me. So I just kept it like super bare bones. This guy has something crazy that happened to the world, and his the only thing he really cares about is his sister's okay, and he wants to protect his sister. As this, so I it just kind of turned into this like these monsters were just like kind of like overtaking this world, and every you know, everybody was like trying to get away from them. Uh, but then the sister started to get some health problems, so he had to get some medicine. So he heard about you know, some location that had this medicine. So whatever he was gonna do, he's just gonna break into this house, get the medicine, try to save his sister, but then he has that proverbial clash with a monster, and then sort of realizes okay, do you have to become a monster to defeat a monster? And you know, all these kind of thoughts. So I made like a nine-minute short film of that, yeah, and got to actually have my sister on camera and be in some scenes with her. There was a time where uh and this was around the time too. I I love I've learned so much when it comes to filmmaking and all this, but I wrote stuff for certain people. Yeah, and it's the it's it's happened even with making the future film. You get the oh yeah, dude, this is amazing. I'll be there. What time is it? Oh, dude, I'm I'm I'm on I'm on my way. Well, we're ready to film. I'm I'm like literally right around the corner. An hour, two hours go by. I'm ready to go. I'm just sitting around waiting. So I just finally the couple times I just had to like pull the plug on that idea, and I had I was like, Mom, you're stepping in. And she's like, Oh, I got this. She's like, I she calls herself Sally Field all the time. She's like, I'm I'm Sally Phil. She's like, I'm gonna, I'm going to take the attention away from you. People are gonna be like, oh, they're gonna put her in this. They want her to be. Exactly. I like it. So I wrote a character where it it wasn't like she was my mom in the movie, but it had the character just had that proverbial like mother figure type thing, and she's kind of trying to talk me out of it, but also the be careful, all that. And uh, we felt I remember filming that and being like, that's pretty good. Like, mom, that was hey, that was great. Like, yeah, and so um, and she actually listened to me. I'll cut this clip. She actually listened to me, and then doesn't happen all the time.

SPEAKER_26 47:48

Shout out to you, mom.

SPEAKER_13 47:49

Mom, yeah. But so we made this 10-minute thing. I edited together, started submitting it. Um, saw it do very well on the film festival circuit. And uh, at the time, a lot of the short films, like you were talking about with comedy, a lot of them were still just online. So there was one where uh they set it up as like a zoom, and so they did a screening, and then people so the screening's like the main thing, and then you could watch people watching it, like on Zoom. Oh, that would be I was like, I'm trying to play cool. Well, I I don't really get nervous. Yeah, like I'm not like the nervous, like I've learned if if I'm nervous, especially with acting or something like that. I actually tried stand-up comedy one time, but with that um nervousness, I I kind of learned like try to like utilize that, especially like when we did live auditions, you know. So I'm like, oh, I got this, that's fine. I can't sit through a screening, like I'm I I run out of there, but I had that first experience where like as soon as it started playing, I'm like, oh, this is exciting, this is cool. As soon as it started playing, I was like, I gotta throw up 100%. And that's when I learned like it is a very different thing when it especially when it means that much to you, and you put you're like and two, I didn't realize how vulnerable I was being. And I because I was like, it felt very cathartic, it felt great to get it out there and stuff, but then I'm like, oh shit, people are gonna watch this.

SPEAKER_32 49:16

Oh there are parts of the world. That's how that works I haven't told anybody about.

SPEAKER_13 49:21

That's how that works. Okay, but yeah, it but it was that moment where I'm like I can't leave. I gotta sit here. I also couldn't move though. I couldn't physically get up, but I'm watching people watch it and like you know, you have the people that are like, but then you'll every once in a while you have the person that's like and then I'm like But it's that journey of like that was like a moment of where I was like, okay, this is interesting because if people are somehow relating to this or seeing this or being impacted by it, because I had people like messages of people being like, Man, that's that's like something I want to be a part of. Like, how how can I work with you or da-da-da-da-da? Yeah, and it yeah, there was just something that clicked, and um, so that's how that that's how the idea really started. But then same thing happened. Well, I won this award at uh film festival. They gave me it was like $500 towards at the time, this uh website called borrow lenses.com, which is now lens rentals, which they helped out on the feature a lot. Shout out to Lens Rentals. Nice, nice. But they uh I won this award. I planned it with these people where I'm like, hey, we got this weekend, we're

Why Wait For Someone To Yell Action

SPEAKER_13 50:40

gonna get like a little bit bigger of a cinema camera, a little bit bigger of lenses, things like that. Airplane. Hold for plane.

SPEAKER_36 50:46

What great that's not what we normally hear.

SPEAKER_30 50:54

I'm I don't know if we've ever had the whole personnel.

SPEAKER_13 50:58

That's what that taking was that I thought there was Donnie Darko turns into Donnie Darko. That's right. Who's the rap? Who's the room that did like to you?

SPEAKER_11 51:08

I feel like that you could be a prank.

SPEAKER_32 51:10

I think something we're turning this broadcast into. We're going on location. Right.

SPEAKER_11 51:18

Like we're at truckyard. That would be a funny.

SPEAKER_36 51:21

Sorry, I'll come back to it. Nope, cross my fingers. I'll come back to it. You continue with your very moving story. Mine is so stupid.

SPEAKER_13 51:31

So I won this award. I remember. I won this award, uh, planned it out with a couple people, and I was like, okay, we're gonna we literally have the location, like it's my attic, and you know, it's like kind of the street in front of the house. Like, I was very good about trying to do things that I knew I could pull off. Well, so I'm like, all right, I got this camera, I got this lens. It's a really nice like cinema lens where it's not no autofocus, like it's it is, I mean, it's massive. I just wanted that experience of like trying to work with it. But I was like, I gotta have somebody to like make sure I'm in focus and things like that. I can't do this myself. Well, what happens? Guy never shows up. And I'm like, the first night I remember being like my mentality with all things, and this is a reason why I'm on the journey that I am now. I don't wait around. Like, I don't like the idea of like trying to like let somebody else dictate if you want to do it or not. And so when I heard that thing of the guy being like, um, why wait around for someone to yell action when you can do it yourself? So it kind of pissed me off where I'm like, For sure, I'm gonna just film this myself. So the the supporting actor that I cast, I met him in a uh acting class, and he showed up, and so I kept texting, I'm like, dude, I think we're just gonna start filming. So we just did it again, super bare bones while I'm setting up the camera, and I I like I lit everything, I'm running sound, I'm even cinematographer, even for scenes that I'm in. And I'm like, okay, I gotta, I gotta, I wanted to keep the performance very subtle, very grounded, anyways. So with my close-up and stuff, I'm like, I can't move at all, which was a very interesting challenge. But as an as an actor, when you're on camera and you have a close-up, that taught me a lot just doing it. And it's so we made this, or I guess you say I made this short film, the second one, called Dog, which is currently on YouTube. But I I I did everything on it, and I I didn't think I would be going on this journey, but there was something about like doing all of this, it it made it even more impactful. And I started to appreciate like cinematography, directing, editing, sound, all of those things. Like I just started to learn more and more and more. So I put that on the festival circuit, and then that got into even more film festivals, started to meet people where they were like, Hey, have you thought about making a feature film? And I'm like, No, but sure, why not? But then it I kept hearing all the stories, and uh can't think of his name off the top of my head, but oh, the Duplas, I think it's is it Mark Duplas, the DuPlas brothers, they're they're these independent filmmakers. But he there's a very famous clip of him saying after he made his first feature film, he was like, The Calvary's not coming. Like, you can even if you do get all these meetings with all these Hollywood people and stuff, what happens is you'll do this for a year and they'll promise you all these things, and you're gonna have all this budget, so and so. But then a year's gonna go by, two years are gonna go by, three years are gonna go by. So, something about listening to that, hearing that I was I had a conversation with a a guy that hasn't become a very close friend of mine, his name's Curtis Gardner. Shout out to Curtis Gardner, but he has the exact same mentality that I have, and him and I was just like, Well, my parents instilled in me budgeting and shout out to my mom. See, I got my mom a lot of it. She's gonna like this, she's gonna like this.

SPEAKER_36 54:54

You are you are cashing in all the criticism.

SPEAKER_13 54:56

I know, I'm like, but so I was like, if I just if we keep this as much as we can control as far as like locations, keep it small, all this type of stuff. If I got a direct act, edit, produce whatever, I'll do it. Because I don't want to sit around and wait for somebody to again say, Can you do this or not? And so I just got a lot of people that I met on the journey of they just believed in it too. And very luckily, we got some amazing actors and actresses that wanted to be a part of it, like Katie Hayes here in Oklahoma City. She did a fantastic job. She was the very first person that I ever I did a casting call for it, and as soon as she sent in her uh audition, that was that first experience of being like, That's exact that's the character. And then I we did a uh a callback over Zoom, and it was like that's that's it. And so it was things like that that just really, really um fell into place, and then yeah, we just started making the future film from there.

SPEAKER_32 55:58

So and it's it's frustrating when when you hear that other people have heard you, you oh, I'm gonna do this, I'm gonna, I wrote this for you, I wanna work with you, I want to do this, and then they not show up. Yeah, when when and and we've all heard it. Yeah, oh man, I can't wait to work with you. Yeah, uh, we gotta work on this project, we gotta do this, and then they do 17 other projects, and there's 37 different things that you could have done. Yep, and your phone didn't even friggin' ring. Yep, yeah. Like that pisses me off. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Well, I don't lie to my face. I think don't tell me you want to work with me if you don't.

SPEAKER_30 56:33

Right. The integrity is what I start seeing people lacking. It's the integrity. Like, don't piss down my back and tell me it's raining. Yeah. Like, if if you truly don't want to work with me, you can either just fuck off and ghost me, that's fine. Right. Or you can tell me, nah, yeah, we're just not, it's not. And that's cool.

SPEAKER_32 56:57

And that's fine. But don't be like, yeah, we're gonna work.

SPEAKER_13 57:00

You know, this like well, and it there's things too, like there's a very specific moment that when I think about it, I remember specifically being like, I don't ever want to have this feeling ever again. But you know, obviously, there's especially with independent film, projects can fall apart all the time, or or they don't get completed, or you know, I've I can't tell you how many things I've been in when I'm you know, you gotta build up your demo roll food, you gotta build up so you're part of these like student films, and you can't get it, or they just never come out, and you can never get a hold of somebody. And so it's like so many of I know a lot of actors, we all have like those stories, but there is a there was a a film that I was a part of that uh I got cast in the supporting role, and it was like this big scene. They were gonna film the big scene first and then kind of like figure out how they were gonna go from there. Well, I showed up on the day. Well, we had multiple rehearsals, so I got to see the two lead actors just I mean, I'm talking pages of dialogue, like probably 30 pages of a back and forth scene, but it was all gonna be at this one location. I I was it it was an interesting role. I I at the time I was still kind of new, and so I was kind of learning, and so I was like, oh, this is gonna be amazing just to be able to watch and like be a part of. So I showed up the day when they wanted to actually film, and you know, we had like three, three, four rehearsals where that was almost like a play where it was like uh hours of rehearsals. Wow. Well, I showed up. I mean, people, you know, you got the guys like like putting the gaff tape on the wires on the ground. You got like the lighting people that the I remember the cinematographer was there and he's like rigging up his camera, and they're all you know, they're doing like the light tests of like and they're doing like they're doing all the things, the sound guys like getting all of his stuff like figured out, and like I mean, it's ready to go. Like the two actors are rehearsing and blocking, and I mean they're I'm just sitting there, they're killing it. And the director is just kind of like doing his director thing and like following him, doing the and I'm like, oh, this is this is gonna be fun. I'm excited. Like, I mean, the two actors, they were killing it. And then after a while, though, I could tell that like and we're gonna start filming, or like, and I'm like, cameras. I I remember the cameras on the ground, and the director and the cinematographer, I mean, everything's ready to go. They're talking, and they're still like the two actors they wanted to like keep it, you know, they don't want to like take a break or anything. So they are still doing it. I just remember thinking, like, can I just pick up this fucking camera and like hit record and like go? Because we're ready. And I just remember that feeling, and then a couple hours, nothing's happening, and then all of a sudden, that same gap tapes coming off the ground, all the lights are coming down, uh da da da, and then we're like, What? What happened? They're director was just like nope, nah, and they're like, Why? And he's like, Nope. And then he just left. And I just I just remember that feeling.

SPEAKER_09 59:56

I'll do it.

SPEAKER_13 59:56

Yeah, I was like, I would pick this camera. I'm like, I was like, if you guys just want to write there, I'll record this on my phone so you guys can get it on your demo rail or something. But I just remember that, and that nothing ever came of that. Like, there was like that, they had it right there. Like, even if let's say that project never would have come or or finished or whatever, they could have at least filmed the scene because everybody was there. But I I saw there was just a lot of like uh I don't I don't want to say like the there's just I could tell the the the vibe of the crew and stuff. Maybe they didn't jive, maybe the cinematographer didn't want to work with it was just like one of those things where the the air didn't feel right. But I just remember thinking like I do not ever want to be a part of something like this. So I I pretty much in that moment I was like, if I this is and this was even before I started making stuff, but I was like, if I if I make something, we're always gonna finish. I'm always gonna at least put it somewhere because as an actor, that's just like the worst.

SPEAKER_32 1:01:03

It it that is one of the most frustrating, difficult things as an actor is just trying to get footage. They're like everybody's like, you need a reel, you need to update your reel, you need to do X, Y, and Z. And especially an independent film. Oh, yeah. You almost have to go hold somebody hostage to get your footage.

SPEAKER_36 1:01:20

I mean, that feels wildly disrespectful to it is not only not only the the actors and the talent that are on screen, but yeah, the immense amount of talent that's on crew and on set.

SPEAKER_32 1:01:33

Yes, like that is especially when that's part of your when that's your pay. Yeah, like no kidding, yeah. Yeah, I mean like the footage part footage.

SPEAKER_36 1:01:43

That's gross.

SPEAKER_13 1:01:44

But yeah, I just I I had a couple other instances, nothing quite like that. But I just I that is a moment that I when I think about that, it still pisses me off, but it makes me like the I don't ever want in people that I work with or or you know, like I don't want them to ever have that feeling of something that we're doing. So that's why with something that I'm writing or producing or whatever, even if it's a small role, I want I I'm writing it to almost also kind of let them show what they can do. Like I wanna if I if I do write something for someone like um the guy that his name is Brendan Smith, the singer in the movie. Okay, so we we I wrote that specifically so he he could sing a song at his band. Like I I just saw that in my head, and but I wanted to show off what he's doing also as actor, performer, singer. So it's like it's things like that. But um, because I think you know Trey Sweeton. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So he auditioned for the sheriff role, and I loved like our vibe that we had, but I just remember thinking like this isn't quite the vibe of what I wanted for the sheriff, because I knew it needed to be somebody a little bit older, had a

Monsters Within Origin And Core Themes

SPEAKER_13 1:02:55

little bit more like bigger presence than I did. Him and I, we felt very like almost like brotherly. Yeah, and I was like, that would be interesting. So we explored that, but then uh when we ended up getting Skeeta Jenkins, who has just been in a lot of amazing things, so he he had the or he booked the sheriff role, but I was just I kept thinking about Trey, and I was just like, you know what? I I want him a part of it no matter what. So I wrote a role specifically for him, and I remember him being like, Really? I'm like, yeah, dude, I'm I want to work with you. I want to work with you, you know, and so it's like you get those people, and then you can feel when they show up and you just see them like killing it. It's like that's like the magic of kind of just seeing a big part of this journey, has just been seeing the magic of working with other amazing people. And it's it's not even it's still weird like hearing them say words that like I wrote and that's why that's why I'm like nope, I get that. I'm like this, but it's you're like, oh, actually, it actually worked pretty well. That sounded good. Thank you for making that actually work, right?

SPEAKER_11 1:04:00

Like thanks for making me look good. Right, that's right.

SPEAKER_30 1:04:02

It is so refreshing to work on um work on a project that has a crew that is just yeah, it's beautiful, they're all in sync. Yeah, it's beautiful. When recently I booked a true crime documentary. Uh one of the executive producers is Ridley Scott. Whoa. Okay, um shout out Ridley. Shout out Ridley.

SPEAKER_36 1:04:28

Are you doing big things?

SPEAKER_16 1:04:31

We've got a we've got a short screw over here, but I've heard of it.

SPEAKER_36 1:04:37

This is on the indie circuit, right? Right, yeah. Up and cover.

SPEAKER_16 1:04:40

Up and cover. Up and cover. Yeah. Oh my god.

SPEAKER_32 1:04:45

He might do so.

SPEAKER_36 1:04:46

Don't ruin it for me. I'm sure this is number one on Ridley Scott's podcast.

SPEAKER_32 1:04:52

If he's in the Philippines, I was gonna say, is he in the Philippines? He's gonna hear it.

SPEAKER_30 1:04:56

If he's never there, he's gonna hear it. Right. Um but that crew market over the Devin Parks is a director. And so first time working with that crew, they do a lot of things together. But that crew was so awesome to work with. Yeah, and they were they were so kind, no matter like, because I had to I got shot, I get beat up, I got a hit, a crash pad, and she's pissed because it wasn't her. Right. I was gonna say she did do a little run through.

SPEAKER_36 1:05:27

I think she was wish I would have been there.

SPEAKER_30 1:05:29

Uh yeah, she does. Um but like I'm smelling this life insurance policy expire. Oh, she makes sure it's up to date. It's up to date. It's up to date, it's for our own good. Which is sketchy in its itself. That's its own documentary. Hey, I need you, you don't need to fully read these documents. I just need you to stop right here.

SPEAKER_36 1:05:49

Yeah, I'm just saying I have Keith Morrison on speed dial for whichever end of the documentary I am on.

SPEAKER_30 1:05:55

That's true. Um But I I kept smelling cigar smoke. And then I look around and almost everyone on the crew has just got a stogie and they're just we're shooting shit and they're just and they're like, Oh, does this uh cigar smoke bother you? And I was like, No, no, if someone had an extra, let a guy know. Exactly, because this is great.

SPEAKER_32 1:06:21

We're smoking Cubans. You get one from Cleveland. And uh here's a Swiss shirt.

SPEAKER_36 1:06:27

I was gonna say swish is sweet.

SPEAKER_30 1:06:28

Here's a switch and sweet.

SPEAKER_36 1:06:30

Listen, black miles are delicious.

SPEAKER_30 1:06:32

Yeah, it is so nice working with a crew like that. Yeah. That is just all in sync. They know what's going on. It's so yeah.

SPEAKER_32 1:06:41

It's the R form within the R form within the R form, right? Right. Like because if one of them doesn't work right, none of it goes properly.

SPEAKER_30 1:06:49

And and I I actually shot my first little thing, I guess, a little micro. I'd call it a micro short. I was gonna say you should finish that sentence. Faster.

SPEAKER_32 1:07:02

She's going to I know I looked at her.

SPEAKER_16 1:07:04

I didn't think we recorded the tried.

SPEAKER_32 1:07:06

I will neither confirm nor do anything.

SPEAKER_16 1:07:08

And so at first I thought you were saying it's the camera.

SPEAKER_36 1:07:11

At first I thought you were saying the white angle. It was a wrong lens. At first I thought you were saying Mike Rowe. And I was like, Yeah, you did that, but you didn't just do that. Oh, micro? Wait.

SPEAKER_30 1:07:22

Micro. Yeah, like a micro short.

SPEAKER_11 1:07:25

I called it out to micro.

SPEAKER_30 1:07:27

I called it punishment. Called it punishment. And my son is is my little actor in it. Just to get a sense of making your own thing. And uh Spencer's gonna probably kill me because um I'm also a part of his community on school.

SPEAKER_11 1:07:48

Yeah.

SPEAKER_30 1:07:48

And um I asked. I asked him or asked in that uh chat just what's like a good beginning, like cinema camera type thing, right? Yeah. And of course, the budget I had in mind, there's basically nothing. Yeah. So I think I specifically talked about a Canon C100, which is old. Yeah, it's very old, and it does have limitations, right? But at the price point, it's perfect, I could not pass it up. Yeah. And so, Spencer, don't kill me. Um, but it also has the look that I see my projects kind of having. Right. I don't, I'm not worried about 8K, not even really too worried about 4K, right? Um, and what Spencer is amazing at is his lighting and nailing his exposures. And so I learned that with the C 100, you have to be fairly good at those things.

SPEAKER_13 1:08:57

Yeah.

SPEAKER_30 1:08:58

So that's what I want to work on.

SPEAKER_13 1:08:59

It gives you gives you that experience of doing that.

SPEAKER_30 1:09:02

And so if I can make something with that C100 that looks good, then when I step up to something truly cinematic more of um I should be in a good spot. Right. If if I keep wanting to shoot my own things, which are a perfect example of why you should. Yeah.

SPEAKER_13 1:09:28

Yeah. Well, and just so it is it is one of those interesting things because you can go down like the camera, like wormholes, and it's and it's hard, it's like the iPhone or like the new phone. Every year something's gonna be done at like there's 16k now, and it's like why are there so many Ks? Well, the in theory, if you're doing a lot of like VFX or like that's a lot of X.

SPEAKER_11 1:09:54

It is, it is, and it's it's way too many to be oh yeah, and that's the thing too. Storage.

SPEAKER_36 1:10:00

We were talking about SD cards.

SPEAKER_30 1:10:02

Oh yeah, that was one of the cool things about the C100. Now it it films in ABC H D or something like that. It's a weird format.

SPEAKER_36 1:10:12

Is that me straight HD? Yeah, okay.

SPEAKER_30 1:10:15

But you can shoot all the file sizes of those are so small you can shoot all day and not even worry about it.

SPEAKER_13 1:10:23

Well, and so you should watch a movie that so when I was kind of getting into this, so am I gonna actually make my own stuff? I've I've realized I always have loved movies where it's like you see like the lead actor in it is also the director or the writer or things like and so I started to watch more movies where I was like, okay, obviously there's people out there doing it.

SPEAKER_30 1:10:46

Oh, where they're wearing multiple.

SPEAKER_13 1:10:47

Yeah. So I'm like, let me let me just watch it. But then obviously you have like your Ben Affleck, who's like on that high scale of and which I can't even imagine being director and lead actor on like something with that budget, because that just blows my mind. Right, yeah, oh yeah, no kidding. But there is a movie that uh I think he did it right after um Game of Thrones because I think he was only in season one, Jason Momoa. Okay, so I think it was so he had like the Game of Thrones kind of uh kind of push behind him. Well, he made this movie called Road to Paloma. Write it down. Yes, you should because then they shot it on a Canon 5B, and which for what they did, like it it one of the most beautiful movies that I've seen. Very, and it's very indie style. It's very it's a road movie, so it's kind of crazy. A lot of it's like natural lighting, like you can tell they just pulled up on motorcycles and was like, oh, this looks great. Let's film.

SPEAKER_11 1:11:53

And I love that. That's cool.

SPEAKER_13 1:11:54

Like that's how my that's how my style is. So that's why it's interesting. Like with Spencer, like he has such a like his style. We have very differing styles, but it's cool when we work together because it's like we both push each other out of like what we normally do, and so we find that like balance. And it that was something really cool to work with someone like him who because on Monsters Within, like we had four crew members at the most, maybe, and like half the time I'm in front of the camera. Which, if the things that I know now, I'm like, man, I don't know why I kept writing myself in all these scenes. Where I'm like, I'll just can I just step back a little bit. But I learned though, too, it's like I I at first when we started filming, like if I was in a scene with somebody else, I always wanted to get their coverage first because it took me a while to be like, they're killing it, like this is amazing.

SPEAKER_11 1:12:42

And then I'm like, yeah, and then I'm like trying to, it's my turn. I gotta be here.

SPEAKER_13 1:12:47

Well, and in some ways, it pushed me to be better because I'm like, man, they showed up. Like, I remember Skeeta in our scene when we did a rehearsal, you know, it was just kind of we did over Zoom because he wanted to do a quick little read through, totally fine with. I like to just I don't like to rehearse, I like to just get that one take and to see what it feels like and then kind of work from there. But I saw his script and all of the notes and stuff, and so I'm like, I didn't sleep at all this weekend, but here we go. And it it it gave me the juice that I needed to like do that scene. But it was things like that that I learned to just keep motivating you. But the people that you work with, it's very important.

SPEAKER_32 1:13:27

Yeah, yeah, it's very now. You guys have gotten some distribution pull with that.

SPEAKER_13 1:13:34

Yeah. So it the the and that was the thing too. So we made it. We weren't even quite sure what was even gonna happen, but I knew I had experience a little bit with like the film festival circuit. So I was like, no matter what, I'm gonna submit it to film festivals. Obviously, you got the big A tiers, which and and the more that I've learned about that, the more it it is like it's even crazier to get into things like that, even if you had like someone that I know somebody that knows somebody. That that doesn't even matter much anymore. But I I was like, well, if we what I learned with the first two was I would almost rather get into like let's just say 40 film festivals rather than like that one big one, because with the 40 film festivals, and especially if it's playing all around the world, you really are kind of building like an audience of like people that like it and kind of appreciate what you're doing, and so that was kind of what I decided to do. But very luckily, we got into I would say two of kind of like the B tier film festivals. One was called the Montreal Independent Film Festival, and then the other one was uh World Fest Houston, and we actually won bronze for best first feature film, and because we won that, I noticed that got us some attention, and I started to get like emails from people where I'm like, Oh, who is this? Is this real? Like yeah, it was like that kind of thing, but then yeah, we ended up uh I had a bunch of distribution meetings, and and that's a whole that's a whole nother story because it's it is like the wild, wild west out there, and it's crazy even because so we released in October, it's changed even more since October. And so it's like it's so hard to navigate, and uh I've learned to just kind of go with my gut, but yeah, we we are on Amazon Prime, uh Fandango, uh Tubi, which has been very, very cool. But then my the what I will say is probably the thing where I'm like I'm one of those like I don't really I can't really be like, oh, we did a good job. Like I'm

Doing Everything Yourself On Set

SPEAKER_13 1:15:40

always looking at I don't want to ever say that, but we got on Screambox, which is a uh a very big up-and-coming horror streaming service. And so that was technically our streaming service debut. And the fact that we got on there, like I think that really grew our audience a little bit too, because that's what's cool with the horror audience, is they're so supportive. Yeah, and that opened my eyes to it even more of like, okay, well, if we can do this with what we just did, and everything that I learned, and especially if working with somebody like Spencer, I'm excited to see what could happen. But no matter what, even if it's we got to do it the exact same way, totally game for that because we have we have a lot of things that we're planning on the future, but like, yeah, it's just it's been a crazy journey.

SPEAKER_32 1:16:28

There's a lot of cult, a lot of cult followings for different types of oh yeah.

SPEAKER_30 1:16:32

So, what do you think makes makes a film a horror movie?

unknown 1:16:39

Alien.

SPEAKER_13 1:16:40

So, and see that's the interesting thing too, is because uh I would not really classify Monsters Within as like a straight up horror movie, but it it I guess it kind of just depends on like that. A lot of it some somehow it's like the audiences can dictate that a little bit, but because of uh I viewed like for monsters within a lot of what the horror is, is like what's going on in here. Sure, yeah, and it's like that PTSD trauma, you know, everybody's kind of going through something something, yeah. And so that's what I viewed it as. And then I just kind of I wanted I knew I wanted to show like glimpses of this monster, whatever it was. I knew I I needed to show something like that so it could be like somehow visual, but yeah, I I view it more as like a thriller, but because I guess the shell of it's a horror movie, that has got people intrigued enough, I guess, to be like, okay, let's check this out.

SPEAKER_30 1:17:37

Yeah, you know, yeah, and film festivals are weird. Oh, yeah, because real weird. Yeah. So I have a feature film script that's been finished for a while. Okay. I'm I may do some rewrites on it, but not much. Where it's at right now, I feel like it's in a good spot. Yeah. And I submitted it to the um international indie filmmakers and screenwriters festival. Okay. And I think that's in is it Italy or Greece, France, maybe? I can't remember. Anyway, um, it got a semi-finalist. Very nice. I was like, awesome. And then I submitted to some local film festivals, and I'm not gonna name them, even though they upset me. Yeah. Um and others where let me drink it. Yeah, where just handing the picture.

SPEAKER_11 1:18:32

Yeah, I think it's gone. It's even going to town. No, I just know that.

SPEAKER_36 1:18:38

It's only refilled once, thank you.

SPEAKER_11 1:18:39

Like, I haven't left. It's a job. What are you what do you think?

SPEAKER_36 1:18:44

It isn't even halfway full. Listen, if I have to sit here and listen to you actors talk about acting.

SPEAKER_11 1:18:51

That's true. No, I'm ready. I that is very understandable. We yeah, we didn't drink.

SPEAKER_32 1:18:56

That's a thing. I mean, like, we're she makes a valid point. We are an acquired taste. Yeah, God is there.

SPEAKER_30 1:19:03

But like most people shouldn't acquire. It it it didn't get selected, you know, and and I know it's it's all about who's reading it at the time or whatever, but there's there's people gotta understand a ridiculous amount of politics with some of them.

SPEAKER_32 1:19:18

Yes, which is so weird.

SPEAKER_13 1:19:20

You you submitted yours to a bunch of stuff.

SPEAKER_32 1:19:22

Yeah, yeah. I got told, I got told by one that because it didn't push an envelope and it didn't try to make a political statement was the reason that it didn't make it in. Which is it was like Which is the worst. And I watched a bunch of the ones that made it in, and I was like, look, I don't want to toop my own horn or the horn of the team, but AUGA! Yeah, like this. There was not even a button for that. Yeah, there, yeah, right. I should have gotten it. I mean, not that one. But you go watch them, and it's like, okay, I'd like, you know, I want to see what they're and it's like this is the dumpster fire that okay.

SPEAKER_36 1:20:02

Yeah, yeah, yeah. No, that's the same thing.

SPEAKER_30 1:20:05

It's a thing. Same thing. Yeah. Like there's I don't get it.

SPEAKER_36 1:20:08

There's been several since Shane's gotten into the the acting space and the film space and stuff. Uh-huh.

SPEAKER_15 1:20:15

Yeah.

SPEAKER_36 1:20:16

There's been a lot of indie film or just up and coming up and up and coming films that we've watched that I'm like, listen, like the guy Ridley Scott.

SPEAKER_32 1:20:29

I'm not trying some I don't Riley Ridley, I don't know.

SPEAKER_36 1:20:33

Um like and I'm not trying to be biased. Like, I'm very honest with Shane about like if he when he was doing stand-up comedy, he would tell a joke, and I'm like, that's fucking stupid. But you should still tell it because someone else will laugh. Or that was really awful. Don't say that ever out loud again.

SPEAKER_30 1:20:49

And I feel like I'm That'll get you shot 100% by certain audiences.

SPEAKER_36 1:20:53

But I feel like I've been pretty unbiasedly honest in the feedback and stuff from from when he does write stuff.

SPEAKER_14 1:21:02

Yeah.

SPEAKER_36 1:21:03

And there's things that we watched, and I'm like, how the fuck did that get funded?

SPEAKER_14 1:21:07

Yeah. Right.

SPEAKER_36 1:21:07

Like there's absolutely no way that that shit gets funded when there are other things.

SPEAKER_32 1:21:16

And I'm not even saying like there's like nine Shark Nados. Seriously. Oh yeah. Over the three. And over again. Like, what is happening?

SPEAKER_36 1:21:25

Like Jason Statham is just, don't get me wrong, I do love me a Jason Statham movie because they're predictable and they're fun to watch. And I don't have to think about anything.

SPEAKER_32 1:21:33

That he does really well.

SPEAKER_36 1:21:34

And and it's great. And I love that he is good with that. But like, what's the new one we saw preview for?

SPEAKER_30 1:21:39

Oh god, we just saw it at Mandaloren and Grogu. Meet me.

SPEAKER_36 1:21:42

I was just waiting for like, if not the beekeeper, the first maker. You know what I mean?

SPEAKER_11 1:21:48

Like just to stow.

SPEAKER_36 1:21:50

Like you said, like that shit gets keeps getting made. Yeah. I'm like, how? But so then to circle all the way back around, I think one thing that's really cool from being able to watch all of this from the very outside perspective is that where the comedy space or the music space or even the theater space to a point is really competitive internally and not in a push each other to be better competitive.

SPEAKER_15 1:22:18

Yeah.

SPEAKER_36 1:22:19

I think the film industry, especially the the indie, the small, like you said, like you have to step out of your director and actor self for a minute to go, oh my gosh, they're like really good at this. And I just want to be as good as them.

SPEAKER_26 1:22:32

Right.

SPEAKER_36 1:22:33

And I think that's something that's really interesting and very neat about the film industry as an art, is that even though of course you're competing because it's the same space, at no point when you're on even a half decent set is it competing with each other. And I think that's just a really I it there is. I know that there is, but like it's not as overtly toxic, I think.

SPEAKER_32 1:22:57

Not in public.

SPEAKER_36 1:22:58

That's yeah, so that's what I mean.

SPEAKER_32 1:23:00

Like there's there are there are still a good number of people in especially on the NDC that are that are real good, honest people and will be strong with you, right? Like Devin and I will go up for a lot of the same roles, right? Where where he knows that if if if he gets a role, I'm legitimately going to be happy for my no vice versa. Absolutely. Oh, it's Devin's good people, right? There are people not the same.

SPEAKER_36 1:23:32

Oh, absolutely.

SPEAKER_32 1:23:33

Yeah. And oh yeah.

SPEAKER_36 1:23:34

Oh, for sure.

SPEAKER_32 1:23:35

And in and into your face to be like, oh man, that's great. And then not so much you hear conversation. Well, and that was the thing I'm supposed to hear.

SPEAKER_13 1:23:43

I was just talking with somebody about this. Uh so, and see, I thought you were in Tulsa. Oh, and I don't know if that was the real talent connection. Oh, we didn't. Maybe I just thought you were in Tulsa.

SPEAKER_10 1:23:54

Maybe we just spent a lot of time up there.

SPEAKER_13 1:23:56

Okay. Maybe because I maybe I've seen a lot of posts and I'm like, oh, he's in Tulsa. Yeah. But like go to Cody. Oh, okay. Yeah. But see, I feel like Tulsa, like I love the film community there. Yeah. So do we. It is what you were saying about being super supportive. Yeah. Like that is I didn't, I didn't even even kind of know what that feels like. Like, there's great people in Oklahoma City. Like, I love what like Kenny Pitts, he has a uh networking event in Brooktown. Yeah. Like that's that we need more of that in Oklahoma City because I do feel like there is a lot of just kind of I don't know if there's just not a lot of camaraderie between like you'll have like people that you kind of know, but then like it used to be you would run into them like during live auditions or something. Yeah, but like you don't even really get to like see people anymore, yeah, unless it's at like a film festival or something like that. But like what I love about Tulsa is just they are just so supportive. And it's like there's been times where I felt like like when I first found out or people found out I was going to be making a feature film, I reached out to a couple of people that I I was like, oh, could they made feature films? I would love to like pick their brain and see and kind of feedback. Either I just never heard anything back, or it was just like, Why you you're making a feature film? Why? What do you mean? Like and it it's it's I don't doubt that at all, but it just still is so gross. But then somebody that said that to me, you know, after I was somewhere and they I saw them and they came up to me, didn't give me the time of day beforehand, but now they're like, oh man, we gotta work together sometime.

SPEAKER_10 1:25:35

Like congratulations, that's so cool. It's got on all these big things, and you're da da da.

SPEAKER_36 1:25:40

I just would like to find a new niche for myself. Where when you go, when people go to meetings, that I can just be like, think stepbrother style, sitting behind, but instead of you're interviewing both of us, anytime someone says something gross, I can go ew, and then just like fade back into the background so that none of you guys lose any of your professionalism. This is just some dumb chick that like showed up. That's about big differences. I would be down for that. So make me a business card.

SPEAKER_32 1:26:14

I um will go with some signal right now. Just grab your ear and you're like, oh yeah.

SPEAKER_30 1:26:21

Spend a lot of time in Tulsa going to Cody's acting uh studio. Yeah. Um but what you're what you said about that is that's spot on. There is there is something, there's something about the OKC market that it's competitive to be competitive. And in Tulsa, it's competitive to make each other better, right, and not to step on someone's head to to elevate yourself. Right. If you have to do that, then you're not that good. And so I kind of stopped going to the networking events here in Oklahoma City because I didn't like the feel I got from them. Yeah. Yes. Every I can do that. I don't want to say everyone.

SPEAKER_13 1:27:14

Yeah, because it's there's like there's still a lot of people chunk of good people here.

SPEAKER_32 1:27:19

Yes. And you're right. There's a ton of I mean, we act.

unknown 1:27:25

Yeah.

SPEAKER_36 1:27:25

That's literally your it's kind of in the name.

SPEAKER_30 1:27:28

You know what I mean? Like, but right. And I've heard someone before talk about how they were able to get in with certain people and maybe find the people that had funds available by brown nosing. That's how I call it in my world. Um they would like they would really research these people and find out what they're into. Even outside of film, and that's not me. Right. That's not me at all.

SPEAKER_36 1:28:06

That's social engineering at that point.

SPEAKER_30 1:28:08

I'm

No Shows And The Integrity Problem

SPEAKER_30 1:28:10

gonna say there's a button that says I am not I am not going to I'm not going to act fake to anybody. No. I don't care what level you're at. Right. The me that these people see on camera and that everyone sees right now. Yeah. That's it's what you get.

SPEAKER_32 1:28:35

Yeah. And the good part is is you when you're that way, you end up running in and great that are Ron. Ron. Dunbar.

SPEAKER_16 1:28:44

I love Ron. I love Ron.

SPEAKER_32 1:28:49

You know, teach Alexander. Well, Tulsa. Oh, yeah. That's one of those ones you go on set and it's like, these this is my people.

SPEAKER_30 1:28:58

I have way more actor buddies up in Tulsa than Oklahoma City. Now, there is part of a reason is because I've gone to multiple classes up at Cody's and met more of them. But I've done a few classes here at Freehoffer. Yeah. Um I've met some wonderful people, but it's not like we connected any further. It was we were cooling class and now it's kind of it's just gone from there. So um I haven't tried the OFA and I don't know about that one. Yeah. So um maybe a discussion off camera just to find out. Because I I I like hitting up different ones at times. Yeah, just to get that. But one of the things I'm I got coming up on the 30th next weekend is I'm doing a stunt class, level two stunt class. So is that gonna be at Stormfront?

SPEAKER_13 1:30:04

That's a stormfront. That's a stormfront.

SPEAKER_30 1:30:05

Great people. Yeah. Tulsa. So again, Tulsa. Um so we'll see how that goes, but I'm I'm looking forward to that one.

SPEAKER_13 1:30:13

Well, and so a very so a guy that I I think is doing things really great. And it's it's hard to like um because he's just so busy. And so there are people where it's it that's part of it where it's like they're busy not only pursuing what they're doing, but then also like living their life. But um uh Adam Hampton, yeah, like that's a guy that like I really look up to here because it's interesting, amazing actor, but it's like his focus is almost like writing, which is which I find fascinating. But he came and saw Monsters Within at uh the bare bones, yeah, it was the bare bones film festival. And we had a conversation. Like I I didn't know he was gonna watch it, and so we went and we were like we grabbed a beer before it, and they were talking it was him, Kenny Pitts, and his uh outsider crew. It's like the outsider productions. But they were uh they were like, Yeah, we're here to watch your movie. And I'm like, oh boy. But like uh I didn't again, I ran out of there. I was like, I I went back to the bar while the game Yeah, let's skedaddle. I say that all the time. So I I went back and I uh skedaddle on it. Skidaddle. But I uh I told them I was like, Well, I hope you guys enjoy it. I'm gonna run back to the bar skedaddle and nothing. But I came back for the QA and then they hung around for a little bit. But uh I talked to Adam. That was I think one of our first real conversations that I had with him because I booked a supporting role in this World War One feature film, horror feature film called Worm, which uh Ryan Scott, yeah, who was at the we shot on that LED wall. Yeah, Spencer. That's where I first met Spencer. Oh, really? And I'm I'm so excited for that to come out. But um, I talked to Adam after that screening and just I got a story about that.

SPEAKER_30 1:31:55

The LED wall that I want to tell off camera.

SPEAKER_13 1:31:58

Oh somebody remember, write it down.

SPEAKER_36 1:32:01

Fingers crossed, I remember cross.

SPEAKER_11 1:32:03

I remember it was the micro short, huh? Yeah, we get a preview of it. Yeah.

SPEAKER_30 1:32:12

Yeah, it was. But I'm I'm thinking we take a brief intermission. Yeah, refresh some drinks. I want to turn the AC on in here and then water now.

SPEAKER_32 1:32:23

And then I just gotta go make another tequila.

SPEAKER_30 1:32:29

And then we will uh come back and we are going to pop Devin's cherry on some toilet talks, and then some TikTok talent show. Oh we'll be right back.

SPEAKER_36 1:32:42

All right, you wave in your car. That's the extent of it. So they had lived there for a month, maybe. Maybe not even that long. Maybe not that long. A few weeks. We go out to put something in our dumpster, like in our trash cans. He's out putting something in his trash cans, and they are right next to each other, and you could feel all three of us go. Oh now we have to talk to each other. So we all turn around and do that. I guess we should say hi.

SPEAKER_15 1:33:10

Start that way though.

SPEAKER_36 1:33:11

And he he's 19 feet tall, I'm pretty sure. And his hands are triple the size of mine. I shook his hand and it was like dwarfed. And he's just the quietest, oh yeah, coolest dude. And he's like, we don't mean to be bad neighbors. We just don't talk to people, and we were like, oh, thank god, us either. So if you need something, I guess tell us.

SPEAKER_30 1:33:36

Right. No pressure. Right. There's no pressure then. This would be one of our last conversations.

SPEAKER_36 1:33:41

But his wife and I, Nikki and I, we text often, mainly about his nice their teenage daughter, because we caught her sneaking out on our camera. It's great.

SPEAKER_30 1:33:52

Uh oh. So after I filmed Punishment, it was like weeks later, uh, our neighbor across the street over here uh needed a tool or a drill or something, and he goes, Man, were you filming something a few weeks ago? I was like, Yeah. He goes, Yeah, I was watching from the window. It looked cool as shit, man. Your son had all that fucking gear on, dude. That looked cool. Nice. I was like, Yeah, it was it's it's kind of cool. It's just like a was a fun thing to try to what I was really also working on was sound. You know, all of that. Uh that's what I was really um well, not only the sound, but a little bit of the VFX and how to do the masking and get that explosion in there. And that stuff is that's some work. It's hard. Holy cow. But yeah, you can't.

SPEAKER_36 1:34:48

There's a reason there's a whole person that does that. Right. Or a whole team of people that just do that post and you see why they charge what they charge. Oh, yeah. For sure.

SPEAKER_32 1:34:58

Yeah. I mean, there what is it? Worth the money. What do they say? Make sure you get at least 30% of the budget set aside for post. Yeah.

SPEAKER_13 1:35:07

Yeah, I lucked out on post because, like, you know, we were just figuring it out along as we were going. But then when I got to actual posts, I was like, I pretty much taught myself how to edit. So I was like, I think I can handle the editing. But then when it was getting around to like the sound posts or foley and all that type stuff, but then also the color grading, I was like, let me at least figure out what I want to somebody that knows exactly this is what they do. But then I started getting like numbers of like, oh, we charge this, this, and this. Well, just randomly came across this girl posted something on Instagram that it was like her kind of like color is real, I guess you could say. But I reached out to her and I was like, hey, I love the look that you have. It's exactly what I I just made this feature film. It's kind of like I think we I think we're aligned with because I was looking at the other stuff she's done. I was like, I think we are on the same wavelength. Here's a link to the RAW of the full feature film. Watch it, see what you think. If you don't get back to me, totally no problem. But I just want to throw that out there. And she responded to me like a couple days later, and she watched the movie, watched the entire thing, and she was like, Hey, so I like this is what I do for a career. I just shadowed somebody on like an A24 film because she was in New York. Cool. And I was like, You then we already know like exactly what I'm the style, and then uh, but I was like, uh, this is maybe someday down the line. I was preparing for that, but she was like, But I watched the movie, I have somebody in my family with Down syndrome. Like, I love the message and like what it's about. And she was like, What throw me a number and we'll try to make something work, and so we were able to make it work, but then I was like, How do I get you this footage? And like I didn't even know that concept of like it because it's like our our final movie's like almost a terabyte, and so I'm like, and then she doesn't use what I was using to edit, so I learned all that type of stuff. But so I luckily again just passed cross at the right time and she was able to make it work. But that's cool.

SPEAKER_32 1:37:08

Yeah, did you like so if it's a terabyte, did you you've got you, you've got your standard and you've got your backup, so you've got a copy of it.

SPEAKER_13 1:37:16

So if she needed you to ship it, well, and that's what we did is I just exported it, I put it on an SSD, also sent her the XML file, and then she plugged that into so I I edit on Final Cut Pro just because like I know everything about it, it's so easy for me to use. It also, if somebody hits a button and things delete, because that happens sometimes, but it automatically saves it, which is saved my ass numerous times. But yeah, I just sent that to her and then she uh it's crazy because the we shot in 4K, but the file that she so I sent her, it was maybe like eight hundred uh gigabytes, and then when the file she sent back to me, it was uh a terabyte and a half almost because of like all of the it wasn't really any like crazy special effects or anything, it was just the detail of the hats on it, yeah, for sure. So it was it was I learned so much about stuff like that too. But the the foley, like you were talking about, it was the same thing, guy that was working our sound. He was like, Hey, you got you don't have any foley in some scenes, and I was like, Yeah, we're gonna work on that. And then so he was fixing the sound. He was like, I just kept hearing stuff when I was like fixing the sound, so he's like, So I did it, and I was like, What? And he was like, I did, and so like when I'm walking through the grass, it's like you hear me walking through the glass. Is that what foley is?

SPEAKER_36 1:38:37

Is like the the realistic sounds of cool.

SPEAKER_13 1:38:42

So like if somebody is walking through the grass, you hear the grass.

SPEAKER_32 1:38:47

You hear a storm and they're gonna be tin pan of awesome.

SPEAKER_36 1:38:52

It's old school radio show sound effects.

SPEAKER_30 1:38:59

Yeah, effects, not our putting. Not the audio, but yeah, like I put all that in in post, and that was that was just cool to figure out.

SPEAKER_13 1:39:11

And it's when you when you listen to it when it's silent, and then when you play it back and you're adding in like the pudding into the holster or something, you're like, oh that's it.

SPEAKER_30 1:39:20

And you put it in the right spot, yeah. Let me get it right perfectly.

SPEAKER_36 1:39:29

Oh filters. So I feel like I should start marketing myself.

SPEAKER_11 1:39:33

You should. It's a big market right now. Canva, yeah. Specializing canva. Oh, we've got resume.

SPEAKER_30 1:39:40

It's on my resume.

SPEAKER_36 1:39:43

Okay, on Brindley, I do have a PA credit.

SPEAKER_30 1:39:47

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_36 1:39:48

Oh, uh this is the poster. Yeah, it's fucking cool. Everybody should watch it. It's like it's a super dope story.

SPEAKER_10 1:39:56

Adapted from the man and his escape.

SPEAKER_30 1:40:02

Legit. It happened, it was legit. This guy lived in Tahlequah, Oklahoma, and just wreaked havoc.

SPEAKER_36 1:40:11

Bombs, bombs, cattle rustling.

SPEAKER_30 1:40:14

He looks like that kind of guy. He owned a c a bar and a steakhouse, and he had the best steaks at the best prices in town, and he could do that because he was stealing other ranchers' cattle.

SPEAKER_36 1:40:31

And then he was it How did I not sign this? How did you not sign that? We were sitting next to each other. Did not sign it. I don't know.

SPEAKER_30 1:40:39

Bowl it out, pull it out. Take it out.

SPEAKER_36 1:40:42

Take it out of the frame and sign it. What was your pull it out, pull it out?

SPEAKER_32 1:40:47

Something in your mouth? Or like the mouth, put it in your mouth. Put them in your mouth. No, it was it was too much. But yeah, I got to put them in

The Day A Set Just Quit

SPEAKER_32 1:40:55

your mouth was that's that's all I say learned for. For sure.

SPEAKER_36 1:40:58

This is but on that one, I got to do uh special effects, special effects makeup, which really was just Jeremy saying, Hey, you did theater, right? And I'm like, Yeah, and he was like, You can make it look bloody. Did you do makeup? And I was like, kind of, yeah, and he was like, Cool, well, you're gonna he's gonna punch someone's eyeball out, and I need you to make it look like that. Gouged out, gouged out, whatever. So fake eyeball. It was pretty cool.

SPEAKER_30 1:41:22

This is my other little uh AI tool that helped me kind of get this. I have this fan film uh screenplay I'm working on of the crow. Oh, okay. It's called Mother of Crows. My one of my favorite, my second favorite. Oh, wow. And so this is called this is kind of my idea. Oh, yeah.

SPEAKER_12 1:41:42

Tonight's story isn't finished.

SPEAKER_23 1:41:55

They think you won't listen. Names I'm about to say.

SPEAKER_33 1:42:00

She's hot.

SPEAKER_30 1:42:01

If anything happens to me, you should so AI as a tool to help you visualize something so that you can you you keep that creativity going. Oh yeah.

SPEAKER_32 1:42:22

I guess is is as long as terms and conditions don't own your idea. Oh, for sure. Yeah. Which is where like Suno for like music and stuff like that gets in.

SPEAKER_30 1:42:38

I did that with um cap cuts AI. So that little uh kind of like uh it's more of a social media editing program.

SPEAKER_13 1:42:49

Instagram, yeah, like people make their videos, yeah.

SPEAKER_30 1:42:51

Yeah, they have like uh you know uh text to AI video. Interesting did actually pretty damn good. But it kind of helped me visualize that character. I said, I need a character that that is based off Rhea Ripley. I was gonna say WEMA.

SPEAKER_11 1:43:06

Remind me of Rhea Ripley.

SPEAKER_30 1:43:07

Because if I if I actually got to shoot it, which is probably hard to get done, but I'd I'd see Rhea Ripley as that uh that kind of dark sorry, can we caveat into something far more important?

SPEAKER_36 1:43:19

You're a wrestling fan?

SPEAKER_13 1:43:20

Yes. Absolutely.

SPEAKER_36 1:43:23

Absolutely. Okay, that's all that's all that mattered.
