In episode 163 I chat with producer and director Steve Weiss, one of the founders of Zacuto based in Chicago, Illinois. 

Steve and I get into the weeds about filmmaking and storytelling.

Steve and his founding partner, Cinematographer Jens Bogehegn have worked together for many years in the industry. The duo created Zacuto and design products together. 

Smart Z-Finder is a smartphone film industry game changer. We share how and why.

We discuss filmmaking history and the future through the perspective of a multi award-winning industry professional producer, and film director who designs filmmaking products that have become standard in the industry.
