In this weeks episode I sit down with husband and wife filmmaking team Erin and Kyle to talk about their latest indie horror project, Zombie Con Vol. 1 a blood-soaked, heartfelt, and surprisingly funny take on fandom, filmmaking, and the undead.
We chat about what it’s really like to make a feature film together as a couple, the creative challenges behind the story and the nitty-gritty of getting a movie made on your own terms. From E&O insurance and copyright pitfalls to fundraising, distribution and film festival strategies, Erin and Kyle share what they’ve learned (and what they wish they knew sooner).
