Filmmaker One-Man-Bands [RFS-FJ23]

July 19, 2016 By Ron Dawson

Filmmaking is a collaborative artform. Yet, tens of thousands of filmmakers all over the world shoot projects each week with no dedicated DP, no sound guy, and no assistants. It’s just them, a camera, some lenses, lights, and mics. They are one-man/one-woman bands.

This week on the show we hear from a small group of filmmakers who are making waves in the industry despite shooting much, if not most of their work alone — and in two of the cases, with small, prosumer cameras.

  • There’s multi-Vimeo Staff Pick recipient Brandon Li, who’s travel docs often feel like narrative shorts.
  • Salvatore “Sal” D’Alia is a New York filmmaker (by way of Italy) who’s the brainchild and filmmaker behind Adorama TV’s “Through the Lens” Series.
  • And internationally renown director and DP Philip Bloom is back to offer his two cents on what to call yourself if you wear many hats.

Share Your Story with Us

For season 2 of the show, we’re looking for filmmakers with stories about overcoming great challenges to complete their projects. Whether or not you succeeded or failed, if you think there’s a juicy and educational story with sharing, we want to know about it. The first six people we pick will each get a free music license from show sponsor Song Freedom. Just email radiofilmschool@daredreamer.fm and put “My Story” in the subject line.
