In 2017, Ché Baker won the Grand Jury Prize for feature film at Film invasion Los Angeles for Blue World Order, a science-fiction epic that blows audiences away.  Ché Baker is the creative force behind Blue World Order and thankfully I’ve managed to meet up with this Australian during his last two visits to Los Angeles.

In 2017, the Grand Jury Prize for feature film at Film invasion Los Angeles went to Blue World Order, a science-fiction epic that blows audiences away with everything it manages to accomplish for a truly independent film.  Ché Baker is the creative force behind Blue World Order and thankfully I’ve managed to meet up with this Australian during his last two visits to Los Angeles.

As always… watch the film and then listen to the interview.  The link to Blue World Order on iTunes is right here.

This Modern Man Is Beat won the Grand Jury Prize at the Sherman Oaks Film Festival in 2016, and I never stopped thinking about how beautifully cinematic it is.  I knew from working with the filmmakers that there would be a good story behind it, and director Alex Merkin did not disappoint.  What I didn’t know is how many fils Alex has behind him and ahead of him.  I couldn’t be happier for this talented young man.

As always… watch the film and then listen to the interview.  The link to This Modern Man Is Beat on Vimeo is right here.

And if you want to go deeper into Alex’s catalog, here is his earlier short film Across The Hall.  We discuss this one quite a bit on the podcast, too.
