This episode is a continuation of my conversation with Jonathan & Josh Baker [TWIN]. Specifically, we dive into some of the hard-won learnings that they discovered while making their first feature film, KIN. Making films is trial by fire and the debrief after the dust settles is such a critical component to growing as a director. It's a rare thing to be able to be a part of such a candid and open conversation about the highs and lows of bringing a feature to life. Huge thanks to Jonathan and Josh Baker for letting us in on their process and all the things they've learned that they'll take into their next film, URSA MAJOR. Recorded in the summer of 2020.

004 - Jonathan & Josh Baker [TWIN] - Part 1

A conversation with directing duo, TWIN. Jonathan and Josh Baker are Australian-born identical twins who have been creating incredible work across both film and commercials. Their first feature, KIN, was a studio feature based on their short film, Bag Man. It is an amazing debut - ambitious and original in a world clogged with pre-existing IP. We spoke about their start in commercials, betting on themselves, what lessons they learned from their first feature, and how they plan to continue to evolve across multiple mediums. The future is bright for these guys and I'm grateful they made the time to chat.
