Ep959: THE CALL SHEET Volume 2 w/ Rebecca Martin Fagerholm and Erica Duffy
Chicago has a vibrant indie film community, and in their annual magazine, The Call Sheet, Co-Publishers Rebecca Martin Fagerholm and Erica Duffy feature stories of unique and under-represented talents--both in front of and behind the camera!
The recently released second volume focuses on "Unconventional Superheroes", looking at real-life heroes in the film industry, and spotlighting creatives whose indie film work helped propel them to the blockbuster leagues--such as cover subject Samantha Bailey (Ironheart) and The Marvels director Nia DaCosta. In this interview, Ian talks with Rebecca and Erica about how they combined their passion for film and entrepreneurship (Rebecca founded Cinema Femme magazine and Erica founded Camera Ambassador) to create a new film magazine that you can actually hold in your hands!
They also talk Hollywood hypocrisy; movie coverage between the coasts; opportunities for varied storytelling at the cineplex in the wake of DC/Marvel's historically rotten 2023, and...the Barbie movie!
