With Halloween just around the corner, we thought we would focus on one of the success stories of the Nickel 48-Hour Horror Challenge - Mike Fardy! In a conversation with fellow Horror Challenge regular Elizabeth HIcks, they talk about how the brakneck pace of making a short film over a weekend can help kickstart a bigger career in filmmaking.
Watch Mike's horror film challenge and some others from past years over at watch.eventive.org/nickelfestival.
For our first episode of the Nickel Independent Film Podcast we wanted to chat with one of the most impactful filmmakers of our province: Gerry Rogers. While Gerry spent the last few years as a political power house she got her start making personal documentaries that weren't afraid to dig in to challenging subjects with humor, humility and honesty.
