Film Courage: I have a quote here and it reads “I selfishly like a lot of first-time directors because they over prepare, they’re super eager, and they have very little ego,” and that quote is from none other than Mark Duplass of the Duplass Brothers.
Aaron Fradkin, Writer/Director/Youtuber: I definitely agree with that as a new director you definitely have something to prove. I think it was David F. Sandberg [a.k.a. Ponysmasher on Youtube] that said prepare 200% just to get 100% results and I think especially first-time directors because they have something to prove they’re nervous, they tend to over prepare a little bit and when it comes to filmmaking that’s definitely not a bad thing…(Watch the video interview on Youtube here).

SCIFI HORROR SEQUEL ‘MANDAO RETURNS‘ NOW STREAMING ON AMAZON PRIME
This is the third feature from Writer/Director Scott Dunn and Producer Gina Gomez Dunn. They successfully raised funds for the sequel via Kickstarter and managed to complete production only 2 days before all film productions shut down due to the pandemic. Because of the lockdowns, Scott Dunn had to tackle post-production by himself (editing, color correction, effects, and sound) and release the flick in time for the holidays.
