On this podcast we have director, producer and editor Jennifer Steinman. In our search for epic sports documentaries we stumbled across Jennifer's film, Desert Runners. Being of the Ironman discipline, I instantly gravitated towards the idea of running my legs off over hundreds of miles a week in four different deserts around the world. Because that to me is Fun with a capital F!
Please.
Even I'm not *that* crazy.
So it behooved me to find out who these crazy people were and what makes for crazier people than Ironman triathletes.
Throughout the conversation Jennifer revealed many parallels between documentary storytelling and fashion photography/videography (and pretty much all forms of storytelling). It was only after editing and listening to the conversation that I realized Jennifer gave us so much depth and insight into the process of putting together a story that moves the audience. From shooting to editing, Jennifer knows it all and imparts a ton of knowledge especially when it comes to getting good interviews!
