Ever pivoted halfway through a software project? It happens in filmmaking too! Carl and Richard talk to Shawn Wildermuth about his experience making Hello World the Film. Shawn talks about starting out wanting to make a love story about being a programmer - and how anyone could be one.

The conversation then dives into how the film explores the problems in diversity in software and the things we can do to get better. Go see it!
