We’re here to talk about all aspects of film, good or bad, from the perspective of wannabe filmmakers. Every episode we’ll dig into a movie, a performer, a director, or whatever, in an attempt to unpack themes, rank favorites, and discuss successes and failures. The goal in part, as amateur filmmakers, is to walk away with a lesson about the medium in each episode. Find all our social media at hallkonmedia.com
