Carter Smith On Making His Latest Micro-Budget Genre Feature, Finding Festival Success, Landing Distribution & More
Today I am thrilled to have writer/director/photographer Carter Smith back on the show to talk about his latest micro-budget feature film Swallowed.
Carter’s first short film (Bugcrush) won Sundance in 2006, and led to his feature film work which includes The Ruins, Jaime Marks is Dead, and multiple recent Blumhouse movies. His latest feature though, is a departure from larger studio productions to say the least. It was produced with a skeleton crew using very DIY tactics, yet managed to find incredible success at festivals and beyond.
Throughout the interview, Carter and I discuss his experience in the micro-budget realm, his approach to creativity, and much more.
