Some really great content recently

I have been following Stu Maschwitz for years now. I first heard of him listening to the fxguide podcast a few years ago. He was a grad from Art Center and one of the youngest hires at ILM at the time. He went on to one of the co-founders of The Orphanage, a great effects company that has created a lot of great work for film as well as television. These days, Stu runs a site called Prolost where he comments on everything from digital cinematography to screenwritting apps.

One day he had mentioned that he was on a podcast called, SpotCast, hosted by Ron Small of Sway Productions. He did an awesome interview with Stu covering everything from Stu's days working on the Star Wars - Special Edition movies, music video work after 9/11 and his thoughts on where he sees his career taking him. Ron asked all the questions I wanted to know and he did it in a no nonsense kind of way. Ron has done other great interviews with guys like Vincent Laforet and Jason Wingrove. If you haven't heard the podcast, you should definately check it out.
