    2025/01/24

    This week, Ken and Anthony sit down with Jack Cox (director) and Cole Hewlett (producer) to talk about their incredible microbudget horror film, The Stickman’s Hollow. Made on a $30,000 budget, this found footage feature captures the eerie tale of Clara Hall, a child allegedly suffering from demonic possession, told through four chilling perspectives.


    🎥 In this episode, we cover:

    - How Jack and Cole developed the concept.

    - Turning a short film into a proof of concept for the feature.

    - Challenges of shooting on a $30k budget, including remote locations and creative problem-solving.

    - The intricacies of directing a found footage film and treating the camera as a character.

    - The post-production journey and how intentional sound design elevated the horror.

    - Navigating the festival circuit and finding a distributor through smaller festivals and networking.
