We're looking at this film, A Peak Inside, and it's nominated for an award at the Austin
00:08
Short Film Festival, which is coming up soon.
00:11
Oh, cool.
00:12
Yeah, it's pretty awesome.
00:13
What category is it in?
00:14
It's in the Best Documentary Microfilm category, which we'll talk about later.
00:17
But what's so cool about it is it's about this costume designer, Linda Cho, for Broadway.
00:23
For theater.
00:24
Yeah, for theater.
00:25
Okay.
00:26
And she won a Tomei Award for it.
00:27
Oh, wow.
00:28
That's impressive.
00:29
So it's like-
00:30
Like the Oscars of theater?
00:31
Exactly.
00:32
Wow.
00:33
So what's this film about?
00:34
So the film is directed by her husband, Brian Hamilton Chadwick, and he's a fine artist.
00:41
Interesting.
00:42
Yeah.
00:43
So he wanted to make this film about her creative process, but he wanted to do it in a really
00:47
unique way.
00:48
Okay.
00:49
I'm intrigued.
00:50
How did he do that?
00:51
So he focuses on her sketches that she does.
00:54
Her design sketches?
00:55
Yeah, exactly like the preparatory sketches for her costume designs.
00:58
So before she actually makes the costume, she sketches it out.
01:03
And he wanted to use those as a jumping off point.
01:05
Oh, wow.
01:06
So it's like we get to see the very beginning of the creative process.
01:09
Exactly.
01:10
That's so cool.
01:11
Yeah.
01:12
And it's not just static images of the sketches, he actually brings them to life.
01:16
What do you mean?
01:17
Well, he uses these miniature models and sets, almost like a dollhouse, kind of.
01:22
Her designs are coming to life in this miniature world.
01:25
That's incredible.
01:26
I bet the visuals are amazing.
01:27
They are.
01:28
I thought so too.
01:29
Oh, really?
01:30
Yeah.
01:31
They actually praised the cinematography in the film.
01:32
That makes sense.
01:33
It's really unique.
01:34
So we've got a fine artist making a film about a costume designer using her sketches
01:39
as inspiration.
01:40
Yep.
01:41
And bringing them to life in this miniature world.
01:43
It reminds me of how artists have always been inspired by each other.
01:46
You know, Picasso painted a portrait of Matisse.
01:49
Oh, that's right.
01:51
And throughout history, we've seen so many examples of artists influencing and inspiring
01:55
each other.
01:56
This film is a modern take on that tradition.
02:00
Exactly.
02:01
So tell me more about this microfilm category.
02:03
Oh, yeah.
02:04
So that actually refers to the length of the film, not the budget.
02:07
It's under seven minutes long.
02:08
Wow.
02:09
So they have to tell a whole story in under seven minutes.
02:12
Yeah.
02:13
It's pretty amazing how much they pack into such a short amount of time.
02:16
So this film is about a fine artist making a film about a costume designer.
02:20
Right.
02:21
Hmm.
02:22
And you guys will soon find out if A Peek Inside wins at the festival.
02:27
Yeah.
02:28
If you get a chance, you should definitely check it out.
02:29
It sounds really visually compelling and thought provoking.
02:32
Totally.
02:33
I'm really interested to see how they blend all these different artistic elements together.
02:37
Yeah.
02:38
And how they capture the essence of Linda Cho's creative process.
02:42
Exactly.
02:43
And it's awesome that this film is getting recognition and inspiring these conversations.
02:47
Definitely.
02:48
It's a testament to the power of art and collaboration.
02:52
Are you submitting your creative work to film festivals?
02:59
There are small details that could potentially be the difference between getting selected
03:02
or rejected on the film festival circuit.
03:05
Hi, this is Michael Fair, and I've been a film festival director for more than 15 years.
03:10
I've reviewed thousands of submissions.
03:12
Would you like me to show you how to present your work in a way that every film festival
03:16
director loves to see?
03:18
You wouldn't believe how many submissions have incomplete information that negatively
03:22
affects your chances of getting selected.
03:25
Avoid common, costly mistakes that other filmmakers and screenwriters are making every day.
03:31
Before you spend another dollar on submission fees, you should purchase the Film Festival
03:35
Submitters Handbook, now available on Amazon in paperback, ebook, and Kindle formats.
