In this episode, we speak with phenom filmmaker, David Kirkman. David's newest film Underneath just premiered at St. Louis International Film Festival and was nominated for an award. We learn about the making of this film and David's next steps, but we also dig into his personal life and where he started out. David, though he swears no one will ever see it, made his first feature in High School and has gone on to make several other major projects (including a few more features) and he's not even 30 years old . His film Static Shock went viral online both domestically and internationally.  We talk about his slate of films, his tips and tricks for marketing and building a fan base and how he is able to create such production value with small crews and conservative budgets. You will surely leave this episode inspired.   You can learn more about David at https://www.instagram.com/davidkirkmanfilms.
