This episode also gets into how Brexit, the Academy’s diversity invitations, and new drone laws could change the face of indie film, and we mull over the state of the commercial industry according to AdAge's most recent compilation of A-List production companies. It is hosted by yours truly, No Film School Editor-in-Chief Liz Nord, along with our Producer Jon Fusco and Managing Editor Emily Buder. As always, it also includes our Ask No Film School segment, plus grant and festival deadlines, gear news, upcoming indie film releases, and other notable things you might have missed while you were busy making films.
