Rob Apse Rolls Out "The Freelancers" on Substack

Joining host Michael Azevedo on this episode is filmmaker Rob Apse. Rob was on the podcast way back in 2021 to talk about his beautifully made documentary The Last Lightkeepers, which chronicles the preservation of New England lighthouses and profiles some of those who have taken on the responsibility of caring for and occupying them. You can still check out that documentary on Amazon Prime. Rob and Michael discuss a new venture that he launched earlier this year: a substack newsletter called "The Freelancers." Rob launched the substack with the goal of profiling and interviewing creatives of all sorts and helping fellow creative freelancers connect and learn through shared stories and experiences. Since its inception earlier this year, The Freelancers has featured stories about animators, voice-over artists, and cinematographers and offered practical and useful advice for those embarking on the freelancing route.

Making Media Now is sponsored by Filmmakers Collaborative, a non-profit organization dedicated to supporting media makers from across the creative spectrum. From providing fiscal sponsorship to presenting an array of informative and educational programs, Filmmakers Collaborative supports creatives at every step in their journey.
