NEW FAVORITE HOBBY: TALKING TO FILMMAKERS I LIKE
I’ve been doing some interviews this year, and it’s really fun. I think I’ll keep it up. Here is a link to an interview with Jim Finn. Here is an interview I did with Jackie Goss. More coming up with Benj Gerdes & Jennifer Hayashida, James T. Hong, Sam Green, Eric Daniel Metzgar, and Adele Horne. I learn a lot from these conversations, and hope that other people will find them interesting also.
