Hey folks! The Rosebud Film Festival is hitting DC and Arlington, VA next week, January 26-28th. Be sure to go to rosebudfestival.org to get information on tickets and the films we’ll be screening. I’m keeping the Rosebud themed interviews going this week and beyond. This week on the show should be very motivational to indie filmmakers and anyone who has had a dream. As I was cutting together this particular episode there was this theme of turning a passion into something real, and using the art of film as a way to bring about healing. I have the director of Aimee, Lee Whitaker; director of the video series She’s Got Grit, Dara Padwo-Audick, director of Trumps Got No Tact, Callison Slater; and no stranger to Picture Lock, Chad Eric Smith, director of Rumination, all on to talk about their films. Get ready to be inspired!

Picture Lock Unlocked: Antony Beilinsohn Rosebud Film Fest interview

The Rosebud Film Festival is hitting DC and Arlington, VA next week, January 26-28th. Be sure to go to rosebudfestival.org to get information on tickets and the films we’ll be screening. Because I have so many hours of interviews with Rosebud filmmakers, I had to do an unlocked episode and release something outside of the regular Friday episodes. I have Antony Beilinsohn of "Free Advice" to talk about his comedy web series with 11 year old stand up comic Adam Chernick, and my oh my, get a piece of paper out or get prepared to write on the tablet of your mind because he gives some nuggets of wisdom that will stick with you as far as career and life! I just think the value in this episode is ridiculously awesome! So happy to talk with Antony and I definitely want to hear your feedback on what he had to say.

Picture Lock Radio: Ep. 60: Coco, The Last Jedi, This Christmas, Almost Christmas

Folks it’s my favorite time of year! Christmas! So happy holidays. Whatever you celebrate, Christmas, Kwanzaa, Hanukkah ...may your holidays be filled with love, family, friends, and some good food. I wanted to put together a holiday episode of Picture Lock and I figured, what better a way to do it then to call on some of my family members. So this episode will give you a feel for films you can go see with your family while you’re on break in the theaters or from the comfort of your own home.

I’ve got Ella and KJ (my kids) to come on and talk about Pixar’s Coco, which is still holding strong in the box office. They also interviewed two of the film's stars...I’m trying to train 'em young! I also talk w/ my brother Mike S., who you may remember from the last episode. We talk about Star Wars: The Last Jedi. And for the first time ever, I convinced my wife, Alexandra, to come on the show. We talk about This Christmas, Almost Christmas, and The Best Man Holiday.

Picture Lock Radio: Ep. 59- Mike S., Beats, and Movies

I've got one of the most fun episodes I've recorded to date. Simply because over the Thanksgiving break I was able to spend some time with family, and interview my brother, Mikhael Sampson, for the first time ever! If you’re a listener of the radio show and podcast you know that I always give him a shoutout at the end of the show for providing the music. It’s no surprise that if I’m such a huge lover of film, he must be too, although on a smaller scale, but you can hear it in the music he creates. We’ll talk about his career as a music producer and listen to some of the tracks that he’s sampled from movie scores...and if you’re a fan of Stranger Things, you’ll get the exclusive listen to his latest track, The Return!

This is uncut as it happened and I hope you enjoy and keep the conversation going.

Picture Lock Radio: Ep. 55- Paige Tolmach & Peter Spirer

Today I’ve got an amazing line up of interviews for you. This might be one of my most important episodes ever honestly. I’m talking w/ Paige Tolmach, director of What Haunts Us, an incredibly important film about the child sexual abuse that happened at her high school in her hometown, the silence surrounding the issue, and the resulting suicides that led to her creating the documentary. You can see this weekend at the Washington West Film Festival if you live in the DMV area, and the Austin Film Festival if you live in Austin, TX.

Speaking of films you can see. You can log in to your Netflix streaming account right now and see the film Feel Rich. This is an eye-opening documentary directed by Peter Spirer in which the hip-hop community opens up about why health is the new wealth.

These are some great conversations on important topics and insightful films!

I'm dropping this one a couple days late because I was at the always awesome Middleburg Film Festival. I talk with festival founder Sheila Johnson and executive director Susan Koch on this episode. With so many interviews from the Reel Independent Film Extravaganza, I couldn't fit them all on the radio show prior. So you'll hear the final two interviews with director of Solomon Dasko, Yaphet Jackman, and director of A Time Before, Zhibo Lai. Plus you'll hear from Director Dean Devlin and actor Gerard Butler of Geostorm.
