I directed a feature once and continue fighting to do it again.
@blipstress.bsky.socialReposted by @platypusrobot.bsky.socialPeople don't realize how necessary cheap rent is to the arts.
@platypusrobot.bsky.socialThey say the secret to making a quality Indie feature is using what you have on hand and #1915House takes that to a whole other level. It's weird, spooky, and just the right amount of educational.
You can (and should!) check it out, like I did, on youtube here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=qBCJ...
@justindipego.bsky.socialReposted by @platypusrobot.bsky.social@platypusrobot.bsky.socialReally ran the gamut this week with bonkers comedies from 100 years ago to modern indies.
Also, man, I was fully unprepared for just how bonkers Altered States was. I dug it, but man…
@platypusrobot.bsky.socialWhat’s harder than making an indie film? Making one while you’re renovating your 100 year old house.
@justindipego.bsky.social pulled double DIY duty when he shot the spooky grindhouse flick #1915house and he told us all about it this week on Indie Film Lodge.

@platypusrobot.bsky.socialJust to put it out there, an unsolicited "We're not under lockdown right now" message from the school isn't as reassuring as it's intended to be. I mean, I'm glad things are okay, but I didn't know I should have been worried.
@richardkadrey.bsky.socialReposted by @platypusrobot.bsky.socialHey California! Be careful this election because the big money creeps are trying to trick you (again).
@platypusrobot.bsky.socialThe real villains are the friends we made along the way.
@platypusrobot.bsky.socialThanks man! And generally when we’re lining up a guest we create a small outline to give us guardrails as we start recording, but let it flow from there. The structure in important to stay on target, but there’s real gold in allowing the conversation to wander a bit.
@platypusrobot.bsky.socialReposted by @platypusrobot.bsky.socialWhat do you get when you mix Weird Al and naked ladies? A surprisingly poignant and empowering documentary, apparently.
This week on Indie Film Lodge, we talked to the directors of TIGHT AND NERDY a documentary about that very subject.
Come for the weirdness, and also stay for it.

@platypusrobot.bsky.socialHey INDIE FILM LODGE seems to have made the very prestigious, and not at all super niche, kid of “90 Best Filmmaking Podcasts to Listen to in 2026”. Which ain’t bad for only being seven episodes deep.
@platypusrobot.bsky.socialNormally, I would link to the movie here so you could also go watch it, but TIGHT AND NERDY is still doing a festival run.
So instead, check out this trailer and then go to their website to see how you can see the movie.

@platypusrobot.bsky.socialIt wasn’t that it was scary scary, but more that it was so weird and slightly off-kilter (probably because it was Canadian) that I thought I had imagined the whole thing for decades. But indeed, The Peanut Butter Solution is very real and very strange.
@platypusrobot.bsky.socialI just bought the last two issues of Crash Ryan but haven’t read them yet. How is it?
@platypusrobot.bsky.socialI really screwed up one portion of the recording for this episode, but through sheer force of will (and a teeny amount of technical skill) was able to fix it. Or at least, I think I totally fixed it. Can you tell that there was a major audio issue?
