E07 | J. Todd Anderson | "Cinema's Jedi Master of Storyboards."

J TODD.jpg

Ben speaks with his friend, J. Todd Anderson. The Coen Brothers’ storyboard artist since 1987's Raising Arizona, J. Todd’s proven track-record of making the film on paper first is what attracted Ben to adopt J. Todd's tricks-of-the-trade into his own film making. After Ben spent two weeks in 2016 with J. Todd at his tranquil home in Dayton, Ohio planning  one of his upcoming films, Ben will never go back to another method of prep for any production.

To all you filmmakers out there. J. Todd brings with him endless boots-on-the-ground experience making movies.  Consider this conversation a rich opportunity to extract a train car full of film-making gold. So with that, sit back, relax and absorb the wise and humor-laden words of the one and only, J. Todd Anderson.
