Isis’ Incredible Drive-By Interviews

Ice Skating Cinematographer 'On Ice Perspectives'

April 17, 2021 - In the last few years, I've gotten back into watching ice skating, thanks largely in part to the incredible On Ice Perspectives, aka Jordan Cowan. He's a retired skater who has revolutionized the way skating fans can see their favorites on the ice (check out his YouTube [https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCj0Vi2KOhULmQ0YrcL17GKw] and Instagram [https://www.instagram.com/oniceperspectives/] accounts). We chatted about his start in skating, the creation of On Ice Perspectives, and the importance of ice skating as an international sport.

The Complete Conversation: Mary Vogt

February 5, 2021 - It's been a while since my last podcast (thanks Covid), so to celebrate my first podcast of 2021, I did a special full length conversation with the one and only Mary Vogt, costume designer for many movies I love, including Crazy Rich Asians. She and I had a blast chatting away over the phone about how she got her start, some of the movies she's worked on/talent she's worked with, and so much more!
