This podcast is a voyage into the vast cosmos of the entertainment sector and behind the scenes of both big-stakes decisions and low-key storytelling. From revisiting the familiar to marveling at technical wizardry, we seek to examine how the media creates our culture — and culture impacts the screen.
On the first episode, we are excited to interview Dylan Teboe, a content creator based in Miami who inhabits the border between traditional film and contemporary multimedia. Dylan give us insights on how content creation has evolved with digital tools reshaping narration. He also predicts the future of the theatrical experience, how cinemas will need to change to remain alive in a progressively digital world.
Also present is Dr. Michael Grafals, whose scholarly experience adds a very rich and analytical dimension to our film debates. Having specialized in Caribbean and Latinx literature, postcolonial theory, and theories of subjectivity, Dr. Grafals offers a visceral insight into how identity and history are intertwined in the narrative frameworks. In addition to writing his academic paper, he is a highly enthusiastic movie lover, who is keen on closing the gap between the stern intellectual examination and the simple, gut-level pleasure of consuming a fantastic film.
Collectively, this eclectic ensemble cast provides a 360-degree view of the media world by integrating industry trends, academic wisdom, and creators’ perceptions.
