We're Making a Movie: Filmmaking Chat with Evan Miller
Welcome, Director Evan Miller, to the podcast to sit down and tell us all about his adventure making his first feature, Due West. From developing the project to bringing it across the finish line, we can't wait to dive in with another filmmaker on their process and learn as much as we can.
Bonus! Due West JUST hit the streaming platforms, so not only has Evan made his first feature film, but he has also crossed the ever-daunting task of distribution. A feat that we haven’t even begun to unpack, but we are already looking for tips!
Join us as we dive into the realities of independent filmmaking, learn from Evan's journey, and explore what every first-time filmmaker should know before stepping onto set.

Evan Miller is a Texas-based filmmaker drawn to stories of moral tension and quiet reckoning. His Oscar-qualifying short Thoughts and Prayers, starring Adrianne Palicki and Zachary Levi, was followed by his debut feature Due West, starring Adrianne Palicki and Henry Thomas, which won best feature film awards at the Burbank International Film Festival and El Paso Film Festival, earned Best Texas Film at the Lone Star Film Festival, and was acquired by Cineverse for distribution in late summer of 2026.
