Hey there gang, welcome to Six Questions With Matty C, a new short form interview show from the fine folks here at What Am I Making. The premise for the show is pretty simple; I’ll ask the same six questions of each guest, allotting five minutes of discussion per query.
I have crafted a set of questions for both the film and music lovers in the crowd. For our pilot episode, we’ve opted for the cinematic route.
With these half dozen questions about film I hope to learn more about the cinematic tastes of each guest, as well as getting a bigger picture about the emotional and artistic impacts left behind.
This week’s guest is Dr. Barry Hummel of the terrific Pop On Hops podcast. Barry is a longtime friend and supporter of What Am I Making as well as being a repeated guest on the WAIM Pod. He also spent a portion of his career in Hollywood working as a technical advisor on a variety of productions, including a string of work with director James Cameron.
As more of these episodes are recorded, we’ll be sharing them in their own podcast feed. In the meantime you can watch the full episode with Barry Hummel right now in the video player below.
Come join me and Barry, as he agrees to play guinea pig for our brand new project. And be sure to let us know what you think of the format of the show. We would love to hear your thoughts, ideas, and comments.
You can also watch a video version of our chat here.
Cheers,
Matty C
