This week’s episode takes a bit of a different turn. I’m diving into the story of how I made my first feature film, The Witches Hammer, and sharing my best advice for getting your own debut project off the ground. Filmmaker Michael Marco joins as a guest host, putting me on the spot with questions about the production. I had no idea what he’d ask, but I did my best to stay true to the spirit of The Honest Filmmaker and open up about the lessons, challenges, and behind-the-scenes knowledge I gained while making my first indie feature.
