Wes Eastin on SHOPPING FOR SUPERMAN
Today's guest is on the show to pick up a conversation we started last October when he screened his first feature film, SHOPPING FOR SUPERMAN, at Baltimore Comicon. He is a filmmaker - director / writer / editor / showman / dreamer / and many other things. His nearly 20 years in the film business has produced a CV too extensive to list here, so just take my word for it, this man knows his way around getting things out of the ether and on to the screen.  SHOPPING FOR SUPERMAN, a documentary that took almost a decade to see to fruition, is a love letter to the friendly neighborhood comic store and is both a wonderful reminder for some, and instruction to others, at just how important these places have been for getting comics to this point AND in taking comics into the future we all know they can reach.  The film is available to watch on various streaming platforms and on Blu-Ray from shoppingforsuperman.com, and it goes without saying we highly recommend you do so.  The director is Wes Eastin, and this episode has him sitting down with Greg to talk about the film and its subject matter so near and dear to both their hearts: the local comic book store.  [This episode is number 826 in a series.]     CHAPTERS 00:00 - Preamble 02:16 - Roles in Film Production  05:26 - The Passion Behind the Project  08:13 - Building the Documentary  13:25 - Interviewing Comic Shop Owners  17:14 - Creating a Comic Book Shop Set  23:03 - Challenges and Changes 25:59 - Future Projects and Reflections  36:12 - Remote Filmmaking and Technological Advances  36:54 - Building a Film on a Budget and Friendships  38:16 - Challenges and Experiences of Remote Interviews  41:07 - Incorporating Historical Elements in the Film  47:22 - The Role of Comic Shops in the Industry  55:16 - Personal Comic Shop Experiences  01:10:43 - Future Projects and Reflections 01:15:00 - Outro
