Em Weinstein is a writer/director of new plays, films, musicals and interactive installations. They have a list of credits and awards a mile long. Their new short film, “In France, Michelle Is A Man’s Name” is a heartwarming story of a young trans man visiting his folks. I loved it. A great father-trans son story that made me tear up. Email Em for a secret link.

We chat about stories from LGBTQ+ filmmakers, how they are represented in media, how advertisers have started embraced the LBGTQ+ characters in commercials and more.

Happy Pride, especially to those just coming to terms with their true selves. We love you.

My friend and collaborator Adam Elder of Visual Effects and Finishing house Spiffy drops by to tell us how effects enhance spots in ways we never see. Other assignments are more obvious, obviously. You’ll learn a lot of how that process flows. Check out Spiffy’s VFX showreel.

Please share these with filmmaker friends and hit me up with topics to chat about. 

Thanks,
