  • Episode 20 - LIVE from Los Angeles Comic Con w/ DEMONETIZE: Tim Drake, Alex Watson, Janine Hogan, and Terrence Kirokos
    Dec 18 2024

    On today's episode we are coming to you LIVE from Los Angeles Comic-Con! This episode was recorded as part of Tim's show On the Mic Podcast with Tim Drake, but since it was 100% J-WAT focused and talking about our new film Demonetize, we're making it available here as well!

    Producer Tim Drake, Director and Co-Writer Alex Watson, Actress and Co-Writer Janine Hogan, and Producer Terrence Kiriokos are the guests for this episode. We were two days from our first prep week on the film and this was a great way to really get things going. This episode was recorded back in October, but since we immediately went right into production on Demonetize it's just seeing the light of day now.

    On the episode we talked about how the film came about, what inspired Alex and Janine while writing the film, how Terrence approaches our budget, ghost hunting and location scouting, finding our crew, and so much more.

    Thank you to Los Angeles Comic Con for having us and allowing us to do the show. I was thrilled I was able to bring Alex, Janine, and Terrence to the convention and to be able to talk about making Demonetize. As we wrapped on the film back in November, we couldn't not have asked for a better shoot. Our cast and crew were absolutely phenomenal. Please make sure to follow Alex, Janine, Terrence, and Demonetize on all of the links at www.onthemicpodcast.com We will eventually have an episode all about making the film, but for now, I hope you guys enjoy this episode LIVE from Los Angeles Comic Con.

    Thanks for having us!

    Enjoy the episode.
