Jeffrey Moore, Isaac Pingree, Samiat Salami, Andrew Schrader and Colin Levy to this very special 200th episode of Making Movies is Hard!

Meet Our Round Table Guests!

There's too many of us to deal with a bio pic for each, so here is the link to the intro episode to each of our guests.

Timothy Plain and Alrik Bursell discuss independent filmmaking, everything from writing, producing and directing to working as crew. But this is not just a podcast about "making it," it's also about struggling with rejection, self-doubt and everything else that comes with pursuing a career in film. Follow along as we forge our own way through the industry and talk to guests who are also making it happen.
