In this episode, I welcome back filmmaker Nicholas Marchetti, whose work we previously covered during the Wyoming International Film Festival. We dive deep into his latest project, The Fencer, a short film serving as a proof of concept for a future feature-length film. Nicholas shares the inspiration behind the film, rooted in his wife Alyssa Lomuscio's experiences as a top-ranked fencer, and discusses the physical and mental challenges athletes face.
Nicholas provides insights into the festival circuit, including the recognition his film You Mourn Weird received, and the unique feedback from festival programmers. We also explore his journey in the film industry, from high school film courses to studying at Temple University, and the serendipitous moments that shaped his career.
We delve into the pre-production process for The Fencer, the challenges of casting for a niche project, and the excitement of working with talented actors like Bear D'Angelo and Ray Abruzzo.
Thanks for listening!
Kyler
