S3E47. Interview | WRECKED A BUNCH OF CARS, HAD A GOOD TIME Directors James P. Gannon & Matt Ferrin

  • Summary

  • Please rate & review The Movies on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, or wherever else you listen to the show! --- For their short, WRECKED A BUNCH OF CARS, HAD A GOOD TIME, directors James P. Gannon & Matt Ferrin had to learn to place faith into their film stock. The movie, which documents a Connecticut demolition derby through driver interviews and on-the-ground footage, was filmed in one frenzied evening with sub-optimal light and only a handful of chances to nab the right shots. In the moment, there's no way to certify quality, so having faith in their film stock and skills was the only solution. The result was a frenetic joy of a piece, molded with a similar scrappy love to the kind that demo derby drivers employ in gutting their junkers and designing them in a manner suiting their larger-than-life personas. In my interview with Gannon and Ferrin, they discuss the do-or-die attitude that got this short made, the strange benefits of using expired film and provide an update of the feature film for which this short would be a proof-of-concept. These gents were a fun hang and you, my podcast-devouring friends, have the luxury of diving on in! --- Follow The Movies on - Twitter: @TheMovies_Pod Facebook: The Movies Instagram: @themoviespod Letterboxd: The Movies or boxd.it/Ptop (looks weird to me too but hey, typing it into Google works)
