About This Podcast
Talk film sh!t. Then go film sh!t.
Film Sh!t is where working professionals in film and television tell the truth about how they got here—and where the industry is headed next.
Hosted by cinematographer Nate Caywood, the show features conversations with both below-the-line technicians and above-the-line creatives. You’ll hear origin stories, hard lessons, industry forecasts, and practical insight from people who’ve built lives in this business.
The title says it all. We talk film sh!t—craft, careers, technology, storytelling, survival—and then we challenge you to stop waiting and go make something. Because at the end of the day, the only way in, is to film sh!t.
