LA Stories w/Matt & Oren - Just Shoot It 459

Matt & Oren chat about the LA fires and their impact on freelancers, filmmakers, and the industry. It's a conversation about navigating so-called 'normalcy' -- where normalcy is lacking. And the tough decisions around where you're needed most when friends and so many others have lost so much in the fires, It's firsthand and unfiltered. With that backdrop, Matt and Oren take up a broader conversation about bringing more commercial work into LA. What's some of the math for shooting outside LA? Outside the country (USA)? And when does it pay off and under what circumstances? And they challenge SAG-AFTRA and FilmLA to think about what's best for helping the industry and the entire LA filmmaking community, rebuild.
