Matt Yoka, director, producer and editor of Whirlybird discusses why he made a film centered on high-speed chases and the family behind this medium of reporting and filmmaking, and how he mastered zen and the art of movie marketing during lockdown.

In this episode, we talk about…

  • How Los Angeles Plays Itself sparked the creation of Whirlybird
  • Focusing on high-speed pursuits and providing an emotional character-focused experience vs. intellectual experience
  • 45 minutes of beautiful VHS glitches
  • Matt’s experience at the Sundance Film Festival and Covid’s impact on marketing the film
  • How excessive film-watching during quarantine inspired Matt as a filmmaker
  • Why it’s almost impossible to end a documentary
  • Advice to approach filmmaking focused on the story you want to share with a “less is more” mindset
