VR Nazi Hunters & How Much To Charge Your Clients [PODCAST]
This episode of Indie Film Weekly reveals how virtual reality is being used to take down the last living Nazi war criminals, and gives practical tips on starting your freelance production business.
Co-hosts Jon Fusco, Charles Haine, and yours truly, Liz Nord get into these topics, as well as New York City’s groundbreaking film fund, the most exhaustive lens test we’ve ever seen, an update from Austin's Fantastic Fest, and the controversy around Nate Parker’s historical slavery drama The Birth of a Nation. As always, the show brings more news you can use about gear, upcoming grant and festival deadlines, this week’s indie film releases, our Ask No Film School segment, and other notable things you might have missed while you were busy making films.
