Ep 560: Andrew Cumming

PUBLIC VERSION. Filmmaker Andrew Cumming joins Adam, Joe, and Arwen to discuss the journey to making his debut feature film OUT OF DARKNESS (in theaters now). From starting out with commercials and shorts… to moving into directing episodic television series (RIVER CITY, CLIQUE, COLD FEET)… to getting the inspiration to make a horror/adventure set 45,000 years in the past… to working with his co-writers to create a new language for his characters to speak… to how he pulled off such an ambitious, gorgeously lensed film with limited time and resources… to how he managed to shoot in so many remote locations across Scotland… Andrew is full of great advice for other filmmakers on knowing what your "trailer moments" will be and the art of creating the proper creature shriek!

Meet Adam and Joe at ASTRONOMICON in Livonia, MI April 12th - 14th! Adam will also be appearing at HORRORHOUND WEEKEND in Cincinnati, OH (March 22- 24), NEW JERSEY HORROR CON in Edison, NJ (April 19 - 21), and TEXAS FRIGHTMARE WEEKEND in Irving, TX (May 17 - 19)!
