2024-03-03 19:06:22 +0000 UTC View PostHi everyone!
You may have noticed the lack of eps and B-Roll last month! We’re sorry for the delay and are at work editing to drop the next Fifth Element soon! There were a few sudden life ...
2024-03-03 15:40:23 +0000 UTC View PostMy prep is very much world-building based. I try to completely understand intuitively the circumstances and geography so that I can improvise in the world of the movie. I don't plot events or scene...

2024-01-29 02:12:57 +0000 UTC View PostI've long thought that this was a perfect movie for this show, with its tight adventure plot and its imaginative world, not to mention its iconic visuals that help ground the listener in a very spe...

2023-12-23 18:44:54 +0000 UTC View PostWe did it. We completed this one. No one's a winner here, but no one is really a loser. The ending of this one really left me feeling like I took the juicy steak rather than humanity's future, but ...

2023-11-30 18:52:27 +0000 UTC View PostI love how strange and meta this whole movie has become. There's a lot of ways of connecting disparate threads in a story, and doing it purely thematically is a valid approach. I never would have h...

2023-11-01 06:56:05 +0000 UTC View PostI feel like we're all having a lot of fun with this one. An aspect of the movie which I hadn't considered, is that a lot of the main characters are kind of terrible people to start with. Particular...
