Notes can make your script sing or send it off key. We sit down with producer and creative development exec Andrew Lang (Dark Horse, Paramount, Montecito) to unpack how feedback actually works inside the industry. What helps, what harms, and how writers can use notes to sharpen intention, clarify stakes, and protect the heart of their story.

If you’re a screenwriter learning to navigate feedback or a producer wrangling creative alignment, this conversation gives you the tools you need to make your collaborations stronger.

In the world of social media, and fast-paced journalism, knowledge is abound. But with all the noise, finding the right information is near impossible. Especially if you’re a creative working in independent film.

Produced by Cinematography For Actors, the Indiewood podcast aims to fix that. This is a podcast about indie filmmakers and the many hats we wear in order to solve problems before, during, and after production.

Every month, award-winning Writer/Director Yaroslav Altunin is joined by a different guest co-host to swap hats, learn about the different aspects of the film industry, and how to implement all you learn into your work.

"We learn from indie filmmakers so we can become better filmmakers. Because we all want to be Hollywood, but first we have to be Indiewood."
