Ep 573: Sebastien Vanicek

The Movie Crypt

PUBLIC VERSION. Filmmaker Sebastian Vanicek (INFESTED) joins Adam, Joe, and Arwen to discuss his career journey and the making of his first feature film. From making short films… to how Netflix fully funded the film… to why Ridley Scott was such a big influence on him… to the advantage of shooting widescreen for such a “vertical” film… to shooting in a real apartment complex and working with actors big and small… to how he approaches scares and tension on a budget… to INFESTED’s world premiere at the Venice film festival… to the excitement of getting a “Stephen King Tweet” about his film… to gearing up for his next feature (part of the EVIL DEAD series)… Sebastien is making quite an impact right out of the gate!
