Do You Think Filmmakers Today Need to Be Entrepreneurs in the Film Business?

Today on the show we have filmmaker Andrew Kortschak. In today’s digital age, where ‘releasing’ a film involves putting it on Vimeo, new filmmakers often struggle to rise above the noise and break into the exclusive industry.Andrew has a unique approach to this problem and in fact joined forces with a Silicon Valley venture capitalist to build End Cue like a tech startup: via a bi-coastal incubator model where directors cut their teeth and build their portfolios doing commercial work.

On such alum of this approach is Jon Watts – Andrew co-produced his NBR award-winning film Cop Car Spiderman: Homecoming.To further address the pain points of young producers, End Cue even sprouted groundbreaking Artificial Intelligence (AI) technology to save time during the scriptwriting process. This was a fascinating conversation.

Enjoy my talk with Andrew Kortschak.
