Ep 97: Landon Fiscus - From Mascots to Moviemaking

Cinematic Heartland: A Filmmaking Podcast

Landon Fiscus, a 15-year-old filmmaker from Benson, NE sits in with us on Cinematic Heartland: A Filmmaking Podcast. This episode went off the rails several times but was so much fun to record... from technical difficulties to the three of us discussing strange high school mascots. We do talk filmmaking as well. Landon was an absolute pleasure to chat with and is a shining example of how bright the future of filmmaking is in the Heartland. He explains how he went from playing his high school mascot to filmmaking and his first feature film ‘F.’ We discuss the filmmaking scene in Nebraska, his first short films which he dubbed his teenage triple feature, the influence and encouragement his dad has had on his filmmaking career, and why his company is called 1 Poe Productions. Also, being a young filmmaker, do people look at him differently? We had way too much fun with this episode.
