In the world of social media, and fast-paced journalism, knowledge is abound. But with all the noise, finding the right information is near impossible. Especially if you’re a creative working in independent film.
Produced by Cinematography For Actors, the Indiewood podcast aims to fix that. This is a podcast about indie filmmakers and the many hats we wear in order to solve problems before, during, and after production.
Every month, award-winning Writer/Director Yaroslav Altunin is joined by a different guest co-host to swap hats, learn about the different aspects of the film industry, and how to implement all you learn into your work.
"We learn from indie filmmakers so we can become better filmmakers. Because we all want to be Hollywood, but first we have to be Indiewood."

"We learn from indie filmmakers so we can become better filmmakers. Because we all want to be Hollywood, but first we have to be Indiewood."
Welcome to the IndieWood podcast. My name is Yaro. We wanted to do this podcast because we wanted to explore the ins and outs of independent film and the many hats that indie filmmakers wear in order to make their movies, because, while we all want to be Hollywood, we first have to be IndieWood.
Speaker 2:That's fun.
Speaker 1:Right, I wrote that this morning. I love that.
Speaker 1:But making indie films is hard, which is where this podcast comes in. Each month, I'll be joined by a guest host from a different filmmaking discipline Indiana here is from cinematography and we'll talk about the craft, learn things that are crucial to the filmmaking process and discover how all the different hats we wear can make or break a project. I am a writer and director. I have been doing production for 15 years, I've been editing for 20 years and I have a master's degree from UCLA in screenwriting. So with me I have Indiana Underhill, a cinematographer from Canada. Can you give me a little bit more about your background? Of course, what do you do? What are your accolades? What are your cool stories?
Speaker 2:Okay, well, I'll keep it short.
Speaker 1:We won't have the cool stories in there.
Speaker 2:Okay, got it. Yeah, indie for short and co-founder of Cinematography for Actors, originally Canadian, based in LA now for about five years, and we're here at the CFA studio, which I'm very proud of to, to have hosted this IndieWood podcast, because I think what you're doing is great. Um, but yeah, I'm associate member CSC shot over 40 things. I think I have 40 credits thus far and a lot of music videos, a lot of narrative, graduate from AFI cinematography fellow and have traveled to over 35 countries shooting in about a dozen of them.
Speaker 2:Oh yeah, and majority of it being in the Middle East. That's three or four sentences for you.
Speaker 1:I'll take it Okay, great. When I think about independent film, I think about you know projects under a certain budget amount. But by definition, an independent film is anything made outside the studio system, which at this point is fairly small. We have Warner, universal, paramount, and I think we can count Amazon and Apple and Netflix and, technically, their studios I'm sure I'm missing a couple of ones, but they buy each other up all the time. It's hard to tell who owns who anymore and so, technically, anything made outside of the studio system is an independent film, and that can range from like the movie you make in your backyard with your buddy for five bucks to a festival darling to you know, a 10 million dollar film financed by you know dentists, yeah which we're seeing.
Speaker 2:We've met those people we've know dentists, yeah, which we're seeing. We've met those people. We've met the dentists and lawyers and like private equity people who are actually like executive producing, eping on stuff.
Speaker 1:That's so interesting, which is?
Speaker 2:really funny to watch and like introduce them to the industry in a cool way. Yeah.
Speaker 1:Well, I think this is what this podcast is for. It's for those people that are making films outside of the studio system and, I would say, maybe under a certain budget level, because people that work with $20, $30 million, they know how to make movies. But as we explore the different sides of independent film who does what and, at times, who does how many things all at once hopefully we'll give you some insight into how to make better movies I'm really excited about it because yarrow to give yarrow kind of a lot of credit here is.
Speaker 2:He is a wealth of knowledge and information and the best directors know how all the other different departments work, and or should, I hope and so and I think because of your background in screenwriting, as well as working with no film school and knowing a lot of the vendors and brands, you're in a really special spot of having a cool set of skills that that can diversify into many different interviews that are going to be had on the podcast, starting with me.
Speaker 1:I appreciate you saying that. I think anybody who comes to the pod.
Speaker 2:I'm going to ask them to say something nice about me you know, honestly, affirmations, we love it, whether they're self or others.
Speaker 1:Let's, let's get into affirmations more often so I have a question for you, my biggest question, because we, when we, we haven't worked together not yet fingers.
Speaker 1:I think there's something in the works. But my, the one thing I noticed about your workflow is you go out of your way to not operate a camera, and I think in the independent film world, where you know, directors are also their, writers are also their, dps are also their editors. It's interesting to be like no, no, I also their editors. It's interesting to be like, no, no, I. I'm a director of photography, but I don't operate a camera, and so why?
Speaker 2:it's so funny the way you put it too, because it's like you go out of your way to not operate, and it's it's true to actually an extent, and um, and it's funny to hear it being said like that, because I just have to like soak in the truth there um, but yes, so out of like the 40 credits I have, I say that maybe 80% of them I have an operator on, and that doesn't mean I have the budget to have an operator. Um, but we find that budget somewhere. The reason I do it is because film is a collaborative art form and I got in trouble when I got into film when I was 15, from an art teacher who's?
Speaker 2:pairing me up as a cinematographer on my first project and I said, well, I want to direct and I want to DP and I want to produce. And she goes you can't. And I was like, why? And she's like because film is collaborative and you need other people in order to tell the story better. And after throwing my little fit with that art teacher, she was right Miss Bedali, who is now retired and built a garden in her backyard, fun fact. So what was great about that lesson was that I realized collaboration is not just HOD's heads of department, but it's also the crew that work with you.
Speaker 2:And I know I tell better stories when I am able to delegate and streamline my workflow, and a lot of streamlining that workflow is having the right people in place.
Speaker 2:The way I look at it is that I want to support the director as much as possible. I'm normally one of the first people they go to, if not the actor or the AD, and I want to know exactly on these tight budgets where we have to go next. And so if I have my gaffer and key grip running that department and I'm able to delegate those notes out, I should have on camera side someone to delegate those notes out so that we can make our day, and I think that allows me to work really quickly as a DP as well, which is cool. Um, I, I will operate, um, but I prefer having someone there that is focused on or managing that frame at all times, where I'm not jumping from giving notes to someone or talking to you as the director or my PD on set and then going over to camera last minute jumping on and being like let's go for it.
Speaker 1:I think it's important. I think it's important to give yourself space and time to not only collaborate with the folks you're working with, but also make sure that every task you're doing is what's the word I'm looking for, not disciplined, dedicated, no.
Speaker 2:I mean, it's both of those things.
Speaker 1:Deliberate, deliberate, that's the perfect word, yeah because, you know, I've done work where I was on camera and then jumped off to talk with a filmmaker I was collaborating with and then jump back on camera to fine-tune things. And it gets really hard to be creative with intention, you know, but sometimes you might need to do that. Sometimes you might need to be like, hey look, it's me and you and we got to get this done and it's going to be fun, let's have a good time. So yeah.
Speaker 1:I guess my follow-up to that would be how does that approach work in a setting where you just can't have a lot of people and you have to wear many hats?
Speaker 2:I mean I think then you wear many hats. I I think you know I would probably caution the director, depending on the number of people on set and what their experience level is. I would probably caution the director and the producer and ad and say if you want x amount of setups a day, we're gonna have to look at where that I you know. Highlight things on my shot list where orange shots mean what we could possibly cut or merge or combine.
Speaker 2:So the AD and the director and the PD always have that with them, and so I probably am more realistic than about the setups that we can accomplish and not over promising. Accomplish and not over promising um, and that's kind of, I think, what happens if you, if you reduce the number of people on set to an extent where every department isn't fully supported, um, if it's a budget factor, I I have, like, reduced shoots by a full day because I've been able to guarantee that we can do x amount of setups, um, and that saved production money. But I could also hire an operator, um, and that streamlines the workflow. So I think it's just like working with the different hods in order to figure out what works best for the film and the director.
Speaker 1:I like that. I don't think I've ever thought about cutting things and combining things in that way to help schedule.
Speaker 1:As someone who's wrote and directed some of my work, yeah, and some of others, I've always been like, oh no, the story is key, like it's important for the story to have this scene oh yeah, for sure but I feel like from other people's perspective who don't have I don't want to say skin in the game, because everyone should, but maybe someone who isn't as close to the material they can be more objective and be like, oh hey, this one scene of a couple talking and this other scene of a couple talking could be one scene of a couple talking right and then you save time and money, yeah and I think it.
Speaker 2:I think it's that, but I think it's also like, if I look at how many setups are in a scene and I look at I I know we've spoken about this that I I like to work in dogmas so I have a dogmatic approach to every part of my process, so you know, when we're breaking down a script, it's a lot easier when you have rules around it and how to, how to break, when to break those rules, how it's going to happen, what those rules change to, um.
Speaker 2:And so when I talk about, like, combining and merging, it's less, I think, scene-wise and it's more okay. We have 12 setups in the scene. What rules are we adhering to? Are we is ticking the box of all of them? And if we are, why do we have these four shots still? Um, is this something that we can lose if we don't have the time on set? It's not me saying no to things. It's more like okay, if, if we're down to the wire and you know we have 30 minutes left before wrap, um, what are we going to be able to get?
Speaker 1:and what's the most important for the for us to tell the story do you think those are issues that come from a lack of planning or a lack of budget, or it's something that maybe isn't refined in the script and so when you get on set you're like this is too busy, we're just shooting things that may or may not need to be kind of a part of the story yeah, it's, it's, I think it's dependent on and everything in this industry is always like it depends when you're in a panel, but I think it's dependent on the type of person that's leading the set.
Speaker 2:Um, I think you made a first-time director joke, which is funny because it is it is accurate. I would say with the like what do you think? Because people are looking for experience and support and they're in a very vulnerable space and a lot of that.
Speaker 2:What do you think is me reassuring them that it's a safe space in my answer? And so if it's about lack of, you know, time or money, um, I think that's very different to a first-time director who probably doesn't know how to navigate a shot list yet, or knows what they want out of it from references and visual design, but doesn't know how they actually need to achieve it and is worried about getting into the edit and being like I don't have enough to cut this scene together, so I need backup options and it's important to have safety, but it's also important to understand, like, how many days you have, what your budget is and what you can expect of people. Um, and yeah, so I think it depends on how experienced that director is that's leading the set it is.
Speaker 1:It is a world of it depends, isn't it? It is yeah um, here's a follow-up. What, um, what things do you expect to have a director ready? Uh, between a shot list, storyboards, uh, you know, I know some folks even don't even bring a screenplay. They're like here's an outline, let's go have a good time. So what is your expectation from a director, and does it change from when you are working on something that's low budget to something that's, you know, over a million?
Speaker 2:I would. I don't think my expectations would ever change because it's a way of I'm. I try and be very efficient, um, and streamline every process, and that doesn't mean rush it. I think that just means like let's be smart about what we're doing, because no matter if you have a million or you have a dollar, people are going to try and stretch that and make it look higher than it is.
Speaker 2:I just interviewed for this week for a million dollar project that would shoot in the summer, and you know that director had the exact same notes about the directors I work with that have $25,000. And that's. We just have to make it look like it's it's worth a lot more. And it's because, at the end of the day, you're making it for an audience and that audience has such high expectations now of the content that's delivered to them whether it be through user generated content or socials, or like the actual documentary documentaries, have a higher standard.
Speaker 2:Now, resolution wise, like how, how, um, how things are shot, and aesthetic and and I think you know your audience, you, in order to sell it to producers or distributors or sales agents, you have to have that higher value and so, um, and so I think that that plays in into a lot of my decision making, um, as a dp on, like, if that's our end goal, how do we? How do we attain that? And we need to streamline the workflow in order to do so I like that approach.
Speaker 1:I think, uh, you know, for me it's been a lot of rushed, rushed work in the past. There has been a lot of rush work yeah, yeah, of course and it's like, okay, well, we'll just do it on set. You know I'll wing it and you know what it's worked a couple times and sometimes it hasn't. And uh, you know there are happy accidents, that that can come from that, yeah, but um, and to add to like what the physical items I need, like whether it's shot list or storyboard.
Speaker 2:I have rarely worked with directors that actually do storyboards. I think I've worked with two that come and they're like I've boarded this out and I'm like, okay, cool, we worked with for a virtual production shoot.
Speaker 2:I just did that for no film school we had a storyboard artists block everything out for the more difficult shots, and that was because, um, because you can't change the world once it's built um on a short notice on a stage, on a virtual production stage or led volume, um. But rarely do I have directors um board things out, cause I don't work commercial, and so I always expect them to come with an idea of what story they want to tell. I don't expect them to come with a shot list. I expect to build that with them because I want to know it as a second language, I want to be in their head when we're on set and I want to be able to anticipate, if something goes wrong, what world we're working in where I can develop a shot for you that suits that story and doesn't feel out of place in the edit. And so all I expect from directors is to be kind, considerate of other people's ideas, but also know what they want.
Speaker 2:You can have a last minute change and change your mind, but it has to be motivated. So everything anyone does in our industry needs to be motivated by telling that same story that the director wants, including the director. They need to support that they're like. This is my vision and this is the aesthetic I want and this is the story I want to tell, and it's this person who's the protagonist. And I think, as long as we can adhere to that form or that term sheet, then we're kind of groovy and I can supply the rest of the knowledge we need where needed.
Speaker 1:I like that. You mentioned about making a project look better than it is for the value. Yes, yes yes, it brought me back to two films, one recent that got nominated, two recent films that got nominated for an Oscar. Congrats the Creator.
Speaker 2:Yes, oh, I thought you were saying that I worked on it. I was like congrats. I didn't know this. Let's celebrate you. You got nominated for two oscars. My friend.
Speaker 1:Yeah, okay, got it, got it. Uh. So, uh, the creator and godzilla minus one. Yeah, so both films that look a lot bigger, yeah, more expensive than they are but worth you know, a fraction of the cost. Allegedly godzilla minus one is 15 million and looks what 100? And then Creators 80?
Speaker 1:80 and looks 150. Yeah, you know, and I think the importance of stretching that dollar, whether you're working on something that's, you know, 25 bucks or 25 million, is important. And coming in with you know intention, coming in with everything kind of planned out but with room for improvement, is important. I think, that is very valuable, and sometimes I'll go into a project without that and kind of try to wing it on set. And it doesn't always work.
Speaker 2:Well, I think it's because in your mind you're like I know exactly what I want, but then in everyone else's mind they're like how do we get there? Do I have the right supplies? How can I support him? And I think the pressure then gets added on to your, to your, to the HODs.
Speaker 2:it's funny you bring up the creator because, um, we're doing a workshop with disability film challenge next week with at Sony and I was just emailing with Oren, one of the the producers the well, one of the DPs yeah yeah, and, and I just want to uh say that, as we're talking about all this and we're talking about collaboration, he has always been someone on cinematography salon on facebook who has been one of the most educational people on there, always answering the technical, always supporting the community and it's so wonderful to see people in their journeys and also that that knowledge pays off, because he made a film, look, you know, from an $80 million budget to, like you know, 200 million, and I think it's because he's so tied into the community and so tied into the to the constant like progression of knowledge you need in this industry to use the tools that are coming out.
Speaker 1:It is. It is, uh, it feels like going to school just to kind of keep up with everything that's going on and being the tech editor for no Film School.
Speaker 1:I feel like I'm having to. You know, and I used to do this before, where I would just wake up in the morning and be like what's new, what's happening in the world, and now I'm kind of like the creator of that, which is kind of fun, but keeping up with it is difficult, because everyone has a weird innovation and everyone's trying to sell something as an innovation when it hasn't really been innovated on.
Speaker 2:Like lenses. Yeah, catch up with lenses all the time we have this new lens.
Speaker 1:That's blah blah blah.
Speaker 1:It's like, well, they made it in the fifties and you're just kind of copying a design that's been in the public domain. Not trying to write anybody, and I did, though, talk with a major lens company recently Not to segue too much, but it's a lens company that makes very expensive lenses and we discussed, kind of what this influx of affordable cinema glass is doing to the market, and it's really changing how we look at the tools we need, and, um, it's difficult now, I think, for companies to make very expensive products for even for the niche market, because everybody wants to get into it, you know well, as you know and I didn't mention the beginning I come from a lens background building lenses, um, with hawk, and it's interesting because they have a very niche market um, they're some of the most expensive glass on the market and they're the most expensive glass to rent and purchase for rental houses and hard investment.
Speaker 2:They also don't sell to everyone and then for dps it's like sometimes a dream lens, because it's just it's like up to a thousand dollars a day, lens sometimes that's insane which is wild and you know. For people who are listening but don't know, lenses range from 150 to maybe 500 if you're getting into anamorphic territory, um so that's but that's.
Speaker 2:But we're at a thousand for like hawk 750 to like a thousand um, depending on what it is and when I was working there. You know they're all about brand and they're about like we're bespoke and we only make x amount of sets and you know it's never going to be a factory and there's only two people in the basement making those lenses and it feels very black magic, doesn't it?
Speaker 1:because with black magic they have like two guys working on resolve. I didn't know that well, don't quote me on it. I think maybe there's more people now, but at one point it was like two engineers like oh, we're gonna go fix some bugs.
Speaker 2:I didn't know that. That's cool.
Speaker 1:Speaking of bugs, yeah do you know where they call it um bug fixing?
Speaker 1:no so back in the day, when people made really rudimentary memory, it was copper wires that connected, were pinched together by circles of some sort of metal. It escapes me. Long story short, you had people kind of build this weird large network of wires that would connect and and make make memory right, okay, and the problem is you'd have moths to get in there, so people would actually go in and clean out these moths and clean out these bugs, and so that's what I call bug fixing, that's what I call bugs that's really fun, right.
Speaker 2:That's also like imagine like you're interviewing for a job and they're like a lot of your job is gonna revolve around cleaning bugs like cleaning moths, like I wonder how that would. Yeah, but anyway, that's cool wow not to digress even further. I love it, yeah I love a fun fact. Um, now for indywood. When you had the idea for it and like at cfa, the company I co-founded with Haley Royal, who's sitting behind our camera over there with Jack- Hello.
Speaker 2:You know, we are all about bridging the gap between talent and crew, and the reason I loved the idea for IndieWood because you were like let's bridge the gap between departments and have people better understand each other, and so what can we expect to get into for my co-hosting?
Speaker 1:So for this month, I wanted to see what we would do, what we could do with things that you weren't comfortable with. Okay, and we talked earlier about this, this kind of season, quote-unquote, the next four episodes. We talked about screenwriting, color grading and music, and so I think for the next couple episodes, we'll explore all these things and more, see what I know and what you know and how'll explore all these things and more, see what I know and what you know and how we can combine these things to make better movies that's great, yeah, cool, yeah, I think.
Speaker 2:I think there's like definitely a necessary. This is like a necessity within our the podcasting world and also our industries, because the way we tell better stories is being on the same page and so understanding how, uh how, we do.
Speaker 1:That, I think, is what you're answering, and that's what I'm really excited about I've always been, uh, a weird nerd that liked a lot of things like recently I've gone into machinists machining like I'll go and like watch a bunch of videos about people like making stuff on lathes. There's a guy out of australia who's like making he's remaking the antithecara mechanism, if I pronounce that correctly, which is like this 3 000 year old mechanical computer, and he's making everything you, he's making the tools to then make the parts as they would have been made 3,000 years ago. It's fascinating.
Speaker 2:That's wild.
Speaker 1:And so this weird like ADD thing that I have, where I just need to learn things and I just like love, like you know, filling my buckets of knowledge with like random stuff, has led me to this place, where I have been an editor, I have been a director of photography, I've been a director. I have now fairly trained as a screenwriter, I've done props, I've gripped, I've been a sound mixer, I've been a sound recorder, sound recordist.
Speaker 2:Recordist yeah.
Speaker 1:What's the credit for Recordist? Mixer Sound recorder, sound mixer.
Speaker 2:It's sound mixer, isn't it? I think so yeah. Boom, recordist mixer, recorder, sound mixer, it's sound mixer, isn't it? I think so yeah.
Speaker 1:Boom, up there we go, it's one of the ones we're gonna have to dive into, apparently, yeah and uh, you know, I I think that's what kind of made me, uh, attracted to this job at no film school and this podcast, because it's like I can share that with a lot of people and continue growing my knowledge base yeah and, and I think the, the importance of having a cross-discipline knowledge, especially in filmmaking, especially especially in independent film yeah is is so invaluable, because I've met folks that are like oh hey, I'm gonna send you this cut of the film and you know, I want your expertise on it, whatever, or, or, please cut this film and they'll cut it and they'll do things that may necessitate the need for someone in VFX, someone in sound, someone in color.
Speaker 1:But they're like, oh, I don't do that, I just edit.
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 1:And I was like, cool, I don't have the budget for half of those people.
Speaker 2:Yeah, so, so, maybe next time.
Speaker 1:Yeah, when I have the budget.
Speaker 2:I'll come back, but I just yeah, it's not going to work.
Speaker 1:Why did you do the things that necessitate the need for hiring those extra people, when you know I can't afford?
Speaker 2:it yeah.
Speaker 1:And so I think I think you know, as we talk with with each other from composers to directors to writers, to people that have done everything under the sun I want to explore what really makes an independent filmmaker, and I think it's the person who not only can wear multiple hats but can understand what other hats are doing.
Speaker 2:Cool.
Speaker 1:And in this case, hats are disciplines. I guess are disciplines? Yes, it really is I'm I will.
Speaker 2:Before we wrap up this episode, I want to tell you an idea I had for a short film. Okay, because I'm never gonna direct or write you know what?
Speaker 2:that's gonna be an amazing end to the podcast fun segment you pitch a short yeah you pitch your film idea, I'm gonna pitch a, do okay okay, I had it last night well, um, well, on my five milligram, so, um, okay, so it starts with it's gonna be very relatable. Um, I hope it starts with a girl in the bath with on her phone, with like one candle, and it's like almost completely dark and she has like the shower curtain pulled and she's lying down in the bath and it's like there's like barely any bubbles.
Speaker 2:It's kind of sad bath. You can tell she's been in there way too long because she's high and it's gotten a little cold. But she's like doesn't really want to get out and she's on her phone and it's like almost in the water, like right above the water line, and um, you just hear the audio and you're in a why you see I'm a dp but um, you're in like a wide from like the corner and it's kind of pathetic. And she's just holding her phone and it's a how it's made video on potato chips and she's just like kind of like watching it. And you know how tiktoks now can get up to like five minutes long. So the first three minutes is just her like literally in the bath watching it and it's just like goes like a close-up on her face with like the water line here and it's like she's kind of all scrunched together. You can tell she's just like really high and it's just like and then one potato equals 36 chips. And then it's like and then they go through and you see the video and it's like goes to the processor and it's like and from raw potato to two potato chip. You have 15 minutes and it's like it almost.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I yeah, this happened last night. And then what happens is the conflict here we are everyone. Act two um is. She gets out of the bath. It's like quiet. She turns her phone off.
Speaker 1:I'm not good at pitching, okay but I'm gonna pitch it to you. Yeah, I'm doing great okay, but I kind of feel like you're just telling me what happened. Yeah, but yeah, yeah, but like, but, like.
Speaker 2:I pictured it while I was in the bath about it being how funny it would be if it was like a little short. And then you get up, and then you get out of the bath and you walk and you don't know where she's going. And she goes in the living room where her boyfriend's watching like an oscar nominated film after she just watched like a potato chip thing, and she sits down and she's like, okay, I'm ready to like resolve this fight, and then it ends and then that's my.
Speaker 2:You know what I like that tell the stories you know, you know, and I think it would be funny and I think I would frame it in a way where the girl would be pathetic but also funny and relatable.
