  • Lights, Camera, Disruption: Breaking Taboos By Challenging Status Quo

    Lights, Camera, Disruption: Breaking Taboos By Challenging Status Quo
    Jul 4 2025
    In this episode of the No Film School Podcast, GG Hawkins presents two riveting conversations that push boundaries and challenge cultural taboos. First, she interviews Michael Taylor Jackson, writer, director, and star of the radically inventive film Orange Underground (Bajo Naranja), a satirical, punk-infused narrative born out of the Argentine quarantine. Then, she speaks with Kate Downey, creator and host of the podcast CRAMPED, which explores the hidden pain and social invisibility surrounding menstruation. Together, these conversations highlight how bold, personal storytelling can become an act of protest and empowerment. In this episode, No Film School's GG Hawkins and guests discuss... How Orange Underground merges satire, street art, and protest cinema to confront U.S. neocolonialism The creative process of blending real-life social media storytelling with scripted filmmaking How Argentina's unique film funding system and underground economy supported an international indie film Kate Downey’s journey from theater to podcasting, and how CRAMPED sheds light on the mystery of period pain Why menstruation remains a cultural and cinematic taboo, and how media can normalize it through better representation The power of representation in shaping societal understanding of women's health and lived experiences Memorable Quotes: “We were able to develop a virtual community because we couldn’t obviously live together.” “When half the population experiences something regularly, shouldn’t they be reflected honestly in our storytelling?” “There is no word other than an ignorant word to describe ourselves.” “Is there any more common experience that has not been hit to death, right?” Guests: Michael Taylor Jackson Kate Downey Resources: Bajo Naranja on Instagram CRAMPED: Why Doesn't Media Talk About Period Pain?

    Why 'Atlanta' Works: Emmy-Nominated Editor Isaac Hagy on Crafting Great Story
    Jul 3 2025
    In this episode, GG Hawkins sits down with Emmy and ACE Eddie-nominated editor Isaac Hagy, whose emotionally charged and visually inventive work includes Waves, Atlanta, Mr. and Mrs. Smith, and The Friend. Known for his moody and immersive editing style, Hagy shares how he found his voice as an editor, the unconventional path that led him to Atlanta, and the creative and technical strategies that shape his work. He also dives into his Adobe Premiere workflow, the importance of collaboration, and how intuition—and his pit bull Blue—help fuel his storytelling. In this episode, No Film School's GG Hawkins and guest Isaac Hagy discuss... How Hagy’s religious upbringing led to his first foray into filmmaking The unorthodox path from critical studies major to documentary editor Jumping from music videos to the groundbreaking series Atlanta Why Hagy chooses Premiere Pro and how he builds intuitive workflows Collaborating remotely and the magic of edit dogs like Blue The creative process behind The Friend and working with indie auteurs The importance of collaboration, mentorship, and finding your crew Memorable Quotes: "My dog carries so much emotional baggage. Yeah, he's an essential part of the editing room." "I try to think like... what is the conventional way of cutting this? And then maybe what is an interesting outside-the-box way of cutting it?" "You're not going to come crashing through the back door by doing something very conventional." "Premiere works the way my brain works... I don't think about editing when I'm editing in Premiere."
