This week on the podcast I'm talking to filmmaker Mitch Laing. Mitch is the owner of Open Heart Productions from North East Louisiana. His recent micro-budget feature The Bogman has been released on streaming through Green Apple Entertainment and has amassed over two hundred thousand views.
With a second film already in production and ten films already slated to be made with Green Apple Entertainment in the same extended universe. I spoke to Mitch about what it was like to make the film, his experiences with sales and distribution, his plans for the future and why America is so obsessed with Bigfoot. Enjoy!
