Part Two: Looking Forward to Smartphone Filmmaking in 2025 with Miguel Lopez de Leon

Episode 210: This episode was recorded December 21, 2024 and published December 31, 2024. New Year's Eve. Part Two of a two part series with our guest, Miguel Lopez de Leon. In part one we share who Miguel is, his passion for storytelling and his newfound challenge in mobile filmmaking. Join Miguel and myself now in part two as we discuss AI: Generating and automating as an artist, the film “28 Years Later” shot with iPhone cameras, mobile film gear in the earliest days, social media and video progress; and among other things, our mobile filmmaking community with the International Mobile Film Festival in San Diego. Miguel was one of the attending filmmakers at this year’s 13th International Mobile Film Festival in San Diego last April. His short mobile film “Ghost Leave” had the audience laughing and loving it! He’s planning to attend the 2025 edition April 25-27.  Miguel’s making a feature film and is looking for crew in L.A., if you’re interested. Thank you for listening to the podcast. I wish every one of you the very best in 2025.
