Film Fights With Friends - Episode 12 | Artists Known

Steve and Paul sit down with Cinder Chou (Writer/Director) and Kerry Lacy (actor) about their feature film Artist Unknown.Cinder Chou is a Taiwanese American writer, director, and producer originally from the oft-maligned state of New Jersey and currently resides in Brooklyn. An early love for comic books turned into a passion for visual storytelling. Her work explores themes of otherness through a comedic and surreal style. Cinder’s early career as a production coordinator (The Big Sick, Jack Ryan, Red Oaks) gave her the professional know-how to launch her own films. Her work has screened at many festivals in the U.S. Artist Unknown is her debut feature film and has won numerous awards, including the Jury Award at the Art of Brooklyn Film Festival, Best Feature at the Broad Humor Film Festival, and Best Narrative Feature at the Artists Forum Festival of the Moving Image. Kerry Lacy was raised in Malibu, California, by two professional actors and fell in love with acting at a young age. Her childhood was spent in theaters and television studios, and dinner table conversations included lessons on comedic timing and notes on dialects and accents. Kerry studied Tang Soo Do for twelve years, earning her third-degree black belt and working as an instructor before moving to New York City, where she studied acting at NYU's Tisch. She is a graduate of The New School, where she studied film, fine arts, and Spanish. In addition to acting, she is also an artist and DJ based in New York City. Artist Unknown is Kerry’s first leading role in a feature and she has been nominated for the Iris Prize Best Female Performance and won Outstanding Performance in a Feature Film at Art of Brooklyn Film Festival.Cinder’s Website: https://www.cinderama.com/Cinder’s IMDB: https://www.imdb.com/name/nm3364818/Cinder’s Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/cinderblockade/Kerry’s IMDB: https://www.imdb.com/name/nm7466039/?ref_=tt_rv_t0 Kerry’s Website: https://www.kerrylacy.com/ Kerry’s Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/kerry_lacy/Kerry’s short film Viola: https://vimeo.com/225143857 Artist Unknown IMDB:  https://www.imdb.com/title/tt24329424/reference/ Artist Unknown Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/artistunknownfilm/ Artist Unknown Trailer: https://vimeo.com/843981392Do you listen to our show as an audio podcast?
