Episode 47 of "On Film...With Kevin McCarthy". A film podcast featuring longer form interviews with filmmakers discussing craft. 20-year-old filmmaker and VFX artist, Kane Parsons, joins the podcast to discuss his incredible story from making short films on YouTube to now directing the feature film, Backrooms, for A24. The film stars Chiwetel Ejiofor and Renate Reinsve. Kane joins the podcast to breakdown his history with Backrooms, filmmaking craft, score, cinematography, VFX, clues to look for in the film, mental health and so much more. Kane was only 16-years-old when he made his first Backrooms short, "The Backrooms (Found Footage)", in 2022. Just 4-years later, he has a major feature getting a wide release in theaters. Note: This interview contains VERY MINOR spoilers. Though, since they're vague enough, and without context, it's perfectly suitable to watch this interview prior to seeing the film.#kaneparsons #backrooms #filmmaking #thebackrooms #chiwetelejiofor #renatereinsve #youtube #a24 #film #mentalhealth #ocd #obsessivecompulsivedisorder #therapy #loops #rewireyourbrain

Ep. 44 - Greig Fraser (Oscar-Winning Cinematographer) talks Project Hail Mary, Dune, The Batman, The Beatles, Cinematography, Lighting, Lenses, Matt Reeves, Movies, Cinema, IMAX 70mm, Film-Out Process

TWO IMPORTANT NOTES: Since this interview was done via Zoom, in two different countries, there are some expected connection issues. Greig Fraser was nice enough to record solo audio on his end so that, in the event that the connection dropped, we could fill that audio in. Therefore, there will be times where you will hear his audio change slightly as I take his solo audio to cover the connection drop. It's only a few times during the episode but I wanted to point that out. You will also notice times where Greig's image freezes, slightly, while his audio is catching up. In those moments, you can still hear what Greig is saying. The second note is that when I spoke about the cinematographer of The Batman 2, I couldn't remember who had been announced. According to reports, Eric Messerschmidt will be the cinematographer on Matt Reeves' sequel.Episode 44 of "On Film...With Kevin McCarthy".
