Ram Denison - Filmmaker, Director of "What Happened in Vegas" and "Money Machine" discusses Police Brutality, Corruption, 1 October and the Killing of George Floyd

  • Summary

  • Ram Denison is the director of the award winning film “What Happened in Vegas”. He is set to release his latest film “Money Machine” to the festival circuit in the summer of 2020.

    Both are feature length documentaries that analyze corruption in the Las Vegas Metropolitian police department. “What Happened in Vegas,” was sparked by Ram’s own experience with police brutality, which led to his investigation into reports of corruption in the LVMPD.

    “Money Machine” takes a hard look at Las Vegas and how it responded to the October 1 Mass Shooting in 2017, in light of Ram’s discoveries in the first film.

    In this episode, we talk about Ram’s trajectory from working at a small tv station in Florida to editing television shows in Los Angeles.

    We talk about Ram’s approach to filmmaking, the festival circuit, and how the market for independent film has changed over the last 20 years. We discuss the death of George Floyd at the hands of police officers in Minneapolis, Minnesota and what Ram sees as victory in his own quest against police brutality and corruption.
