Anna Keizer and Derek Dehanke are the co-hosts of ‘80s Movie Montage. The idea for the podcast came when they realized just how much they talk – a lot – when watching films from their favorite cinematic era. Their wedding theme was “a light nod to the ‘80s,” so there’s that, too. Both hail from the Midwest but have called Los Angeles home for several years now. Anna is a writer who received her B.A. in Film/Video from Columbia College Chicago and M.A. in Film Studies from Chapman University. Her dark comedy short She Had It Coming was an Official Selection of 25 film festivals with several awards won for it among them. Derek is an attorney who also likes movies. It is a point of pride that most of their podcast episodes are longer than the movies they cover.

As an experienced producer having created content all over the world from the lush jungles of the Congo to the paved jungles of Times Square, Michael Anderson has spent years building his career in a variety of roles within production across commercials, branded content, documentaries, and narrative features. As the current Head of Global Production at Beautiful Destinations and having been the Senior Executive Producer at Cutaway Creative, Michael has worked with clients spanning Fortune 500 companies to Global Nonprofits and National Ministries of Tourism to create award-recognized projects. Outside of short-form content, Michael is an energetic contributor to both on-and-off-Broadway as well as independent feature films having successfully produced and/or directed films including: A Southern Haunting, Manson Family Vacation, G.B.F., He’s Way More Famous Than You, Somewhere Slow, Exquisite Corpse and several more.
