Welcome to the Santa Barbara Film Festival! We were unable to join in person, but we still got to cover two very different yet captivating films, A Place in the Field and Fresh to Frightening: The Sharon Green Story.
The feature film A Place in the Field follows veteran Gio Scuderi as he receives a package in the mail that sends him on a road trip to fulfill a promise, but ends up fulfilling so much more. We were honored to be joined by director Nicole Mejia, co-writer and star Don DiPetta, producer Heliya Alam, and cinematographer Kadri Koop. We discuss the significance of having a woman direct (and other key roles in the crew) a story about a military vet, how the film's many beautiful locations (much like the film itself) came together in a serendipitous way, the power of horse therapy, and how life imitated art during the making of the film.
In the short film Fresh to Frightening: The Sharon Green Story, we're introduced to Sharon Green, one of the best yacht racing photographers in the game. Director Gareth Kelly and Sharon Green herself joined us to share how they met and decided to make this film, Sharon's fearlessness and success in a world dominated by men, and some of her scariest "oh shit" moments while photographing a yacht race from a helicopter.
