Poser movie5/31/2023 ![]() ![]() I think the artists and musicians in Columbus do have a good sense of humor about that stuff and it's both a love letter to the music scene, but also poking fun in that balance. We told everyone that they'll be playing a version of themselves, but they can exaggerate that version and make it fun.ĭixon: I think it definitely helped that we're friends with most of these artists and already had a good relationship with them. Segev: I think we're making fun of what it is to be an artist and poking fun at ourselves and having fun with our friends. We shot at this restaurant called Commune. We had a house that we turned into the party house for the film, a house that I had rented, but I wasn't living in it. Segev: We shot at this one place called Cafe Bourbon Street, which is a great little local bar and venue. The people that we know and are incredibly talented, we couldn't have done without all the people we worked with. I think because of that, it's definitely a smaller scene that everybody knows each other in some way or knows people in the same circles.Īre there a lot of filmmakers there, too?ĭixon: It's definitely small. If you're in New York or L.A., or these bigger cities, there's a punk scene and those are all the punk bands, but because Columbus is smaller, you see a lot of different types of musicians collaborating and you'll go to a show and see a bunch of different types of musicians. Those are all our friends.ĭixon: We made the movie with, like Ori said, just real bands and our friends, but I think because it is a smaller scene, there's more crossover between genres too. Is that a similar creative community as depicted in the movie? Most Midwest cities have something like that. I think that this film highlights a lot of those things that if you're from here, you've probably gone to that party at that warehouse. I think the overall vibe of being in a Midwest city, there's a lot of really creative people and there's opportunity here for them to have a warehouse or do these things that you couldn't do in a big city. Segev: I think a lot of that comes through in little things in the VO where she says "Old North." If you're from Columbus, you know exactly where that is, but it also could sound like a place in any city. What are little details that are very specific to Columbus that anyone from the city will recognize? It just wouldn't have worked, getting the locations, being able to shoot at all our favorite venues. Besides the subject matter, we could have never made this movie in a big city. Segev: It's such a good place to have our homebase. We do work all around and we're open to do projects anywhere, but we definitely have our roots here. The artists that we've worked with and the crew and the film people that we made this film with, we really like. Do you foresee telling more Columbus stories?ĭixon: We definitely have a solid crew here. ![]()
