Radio Film School: Short Ends

Short Ends:
1. The unused portions of an undeveloped motion picture film reel. Frequently used by indie and student films on low budgets.

2. Short, autonomous Radio Film School documentary or narrative episodes about all things cinema.

Host Ron Dawson takes you on a journey to discover what it means to be a filmmaker. A show unlike any other for the passionate and aspiring filmmaker, Radio Film School is more of an audio documentary than a traditional podcast. Think of it as This American Life for filmmakers.
