How Filmmaker Joshua Caldwell Moved From DIY Feature Films To Theatrical Releases
Description
Today, I’m thrilled to have Joshua Caldwell return to the show to discuss his latest feature film Mending The Line.
Josh is a prolific filmmaker who got his start with the $6000 feature film Layover, before leveraging its success to develop numerous subsequent features that have each grown in scope and budget. His latest feature Mending The Line (now in theaters) marks his biggest production to date, and stars Brian Cox and Sinqua Walls.
Throughout the interview, we discuss Josh’s process developing, producing, directing, and selling his latest feature. Josh also shares critical lessons for filmmakers looking to build long term careers - from managing rejection to navigating the business of film, and much more.
