Echo Chamber - 381 - Part Three (Found Footage: The Making of the Patterson Project)
It's a monster week at @EchoChamberFP and we're now dropping 'Part THREE' for your enjoyment!!!
Now, thanks to the great folks at Falco, we're looking at a film about filmmakers making a documentary about a film. Not saying this is proof of 'Simulation theory', buuuuut......WE also have the incredible team behind the film stop by to pull back the curtain, and really break down the process. This was a lot of fun, and crazy interesting, so you'll dig it f'sure!!!
'Found Footage: The Making of the Patterson Project' is the feature directorial debut from Max Tzannes, which he also co-wrote with David San Miguel. A crew of documentarians (Marie Paquim, James Simmons) chronicle an amateur filmmaker's (Brennan Keel Cook) quest to make the world's greatest found footage horror film.

As early as I can remember, I’ve had a deep connection with music. Growing up, my grandma and great-grandma would fill the house with song, transporting me to exciting and wondrous places with their mastery over the piano. Every time they sat down to play, I wanted nothing more than to take people on those magical, emotional, and otherwise impossible journeys they so effortlessly crafted with only their fingertips. It was in those notes I discovered what I wanted to do with my life. And the dream was set in motion.
After years of dedication to the study, the practice, and a well-fed imagination, I finally found my way into that mystic realm of unparalleled story-telling.
Still to this day, nothing hits home more than a perfectly crafted score. There is no greater universal language, nothing that can compel an audience in such a deeply visceral way. That’s why I make music. Composing and discovering that perfect sound is so satisfying. I sometimes can’t believe that I’m lucky enough to be a part of that magic!
