Happy Hump Day , Folks!<\/p>\n
One thing I\u2019ve been noticing for the last few decades \u2014 hey, I first got involved in indie film in the late 90\u2019s \u2014 is that scripts with two names on them are almost always better than those with one.
\nNo offense to the infinite number of solo writers out there, but I cannot help but notice that the maxim \u201ctwo minds are better than one\u201d especially applies to screenwriting.
\nIt just might apply to film directing as well.
\nWriting and directing team Mike Sorce and Matthew Kic sat down with me at the DIF mic\u2019s and shared the very interesting story of how these two came out to L.A. from Arizona and
\nTexas, ended up in the same mail room, teamed up to write together, and then reached the pinnacle of their careers when the Sherman Oaks Film Festival presented the World Premiere of their short film \u201cManifesto\u201d in 2023.
\nMainfesto took home the Grand Jury Award \u2013 Best Screenplay \u2013 Short Film, and the Filmmakers Award \u2013 Outstanding Short Film \u2013 Drama.<\/p>\n
Sarcasm aside, Mike and Matt have accomplished a lot of great things since their arrivals in L.A. and it was an absolute delight to have them onto the podcast to share their stories.<\/p>\n
During the podcast I promised to share these links:
