What You Need to Know About the Sony Alpha 1

This week on the No Film School Podcast, we are joined by Jo Light and Katherine Tolentino to discuss what the post-pandemic Sundance is looking like and why it may be an improvement on the old model. (By the way, Boots Riley has some great advice on how to get the most out of Sundance 2021.)

Also, the CEO of AMC takes a major risk on the future of theatrical, which leads us to a vital question: why do theaters not show episodic content?

In Tech News: the Sony Alpha 1 makes a big splash in the cinema camera market.

Let's get started.
