An in-depth interview with horror/punk rock filmmaker, Jason Zink.
Today on Filmmaker Freedom, an interview with Jason Zink.
Jason's directed several micro-budget, DIY features, all in the realm of horror and punk rock. His latest is called Straight Edge Kegger, which looks awesome.
He's also experienced first hand just how predatory some traditional distribution deals can be.
So in our wide-ranging conversation, we go deep on Jason's ethos for making cool, grungy flicks that he and his team can be proud of, what to watch out for when offered distribution, his plan for staging a DIY tour for his current film, and a whole lot more.
It's a fun conversation, and I hope you dig it.
Each solo episode of Filmmaker Freedom (not the interviews) has a complete written transcript so that you can revisit the ideas quickly and easily.
You can find those transcripts, as well as the full archive of shows, right here:
Every Sunday morning, I send out a handful of stories, carefully picked to help you make films you care about, build a business, and master your psychology. Plus I share a short film I love, and various other bits of inspiration. Get it here:
