So much better
Now that you can download the movie it's so much better to listen to this series since you know what there talking about. If your a fan of the movie, check this out!
There is no spoon, ignore the man behind the curtain, etc.
The point of this podcast is twofold. Firstly, to promote the new Kevin Smith flick 'Red State'. Between audio clips and the video trailer of the movie, this is part viral marketing campaign and part world building backstory. For a movie no one has seen yet, he has generated tons of buzz just from honest background discussion about creating. This is the second bit: creating a filmmakers bible. Kevin sees the digital revolution and guerilla style that has arisen and is embracing it. This is his way of handing back to the kids dreaming with their point-and-shoot digital camcorder making backyard cinema! I wish I was in Cali rather than Oregon so I could visit the live Q&A filmschool. My fiancee and I love the podcast and has made her want to see it sight unseen! You've made fans of us Smith.
A great film school
I think a lot of people are missing the entire point of this podcast. It's not a podcast to market his new film Red State (though it helps) but mainly a film school for those who want to learn things about filmmaking from not just Actors, producers, and writer directors, but the other important people on a film set that really make the magic happen. The episode with Adam Druxman was not only hilarious, but was insanely informative to me personal for I've been cutting my teeth lately as an AD, so it was great to pick up a few tricks just by listening to that episode. And I didn't have to spend 20 grand for a semester of school to learn the same thing.
So thank you Smith and team for putting this out there. This is better than any commentary or behind the scenes featurette. I hope he does this with every film he makes thus forward.
