Indiewood

What if AI could transform the tedious tasks of filmmaking, letting creatives focus on storytelling? Join us for a special mid-season episode of the Indiewood Podcast with Michael, a versatile talent back in LA after honing his skills in Seattle and Texas. With experience in live productions and technical direction in drag queen theater, Michael shares unique insights on AI’s evolving role in indie film.
We explore how AI tools, like machine learning and neural engines, have been quietly shaping workflows. Looking ahead, we discuss AI’s potential to reshape storytelling, even allowing viewers to prompt new episodes of their favorite shows. Reflecting on past industry fears, we highlight how mediums adapted and thrived.

In the world of social media, and fast-paced journalism, knowledge is abound. But with all the noise, finding the right information is near impossible. Especially if you’re a creative working in independent film.

Produced by Cinematography For Actors, the Indiewood podcast aims to fix that. This is a podcast about indie filmmakers and the many hats we wear in order to solve problems before, during, and after production.

Every month, award-winning Writer/Director Yaroslav Altunin is joined by a different guest co-host to swap hats, learn about the different aspects of the film industry, and how to implement all you learn into your work.
"We learn from indie filmmakers so we can become better filmmakers. Because we all want to be Hollywood, but first we have to be Indiewood."
