    Terrific insight as to how films are made
    As someone who is interested in filmmaking these podcasts give you great insight as to how films really get made. The interviews are by people who work in the trenches of film production. The average person has no idea how much work and skill it takes to make a film they are watching. Brandon Riley has given us a great opportunity to peak behind the curtain to watch masters who practice their craft, learned over many decades. I love listening to these podcast and learn from every one of them. Well done, Brandon! Thank you!

    So so good!
    Don’t stop! This podcast should be required listening for those that love filmmaking. It’s even good for those knee-deep in production every day to know (or refresh) what others do and their best practices. Lots of valuable insider info.

    Excellent Resource!
    Only just getting started, but already a great resource for on-the-ground shop talk for this crazy industry. Well worth the time even if you’re a busy production person with little of it. First few episodes have been great - can’t wait to see what comes next.
