It is Oscars week and so my guest today is Omar Lopex, a local San Diego video artist and now filmmaker. Omar came onto the podcast to discuss his first feature length film titled “Ana, Who They Pulled Out of the River”. We also discuss his previous work which employed analog formats including: wet-plate photography & 16mm / Super 8 film and has exhibited at the San Diego Art Institute, LOW Gallery, La Jolla Athenaeum, San Diego Museum of Art, Oceanside Museum of Art, and Santa Monica Museum of Art.

To learn more about Omar and his work visit his production studio website at www.standardfantastic.com.
