We have a 'Special Edition' of @EchoChamberFP https://www.instagram.com/echochamberfp/ for you today, people!!!



It's a bit of a revisit, because we first looked at this film during Sci-Fi London 2023, but looking back at that review: https://youtu.be/Yh1aM4iPxsY I didn't really do things justice. So thanks to the great Matt Hulse, we were able to not just take another look at the feature, BUT, sit down with the creative mind (one of them) behind the project and really get into the mechanics of the creation, production, casting, all that good stuff. We also touched upon A.I, creative techniques, and the perception of material. It was a really fun time, which could have been a lot longer, you won't want to miss it!!! Watch the conversation: HERE! https://youtu.be/dgix9eiMoBM



'The Bystanders' is the feature directorial debut from Gabriel Foster Prior, which he co-wrote with Jack Hughes. Peter Weir (Scott Haran) – a former child genius at chess who is now an inconspicuous office drone – is recruited precisely for his anonymity to become a Bystander, a kind of empowered guardian angel tasked with watching over, and invisibly helping, an individual subject.



Peter is trained by jaded Bystander Frank (Seann Walsh), who out of boredom proposes that they swap subjects, so that Frank now has ‘middle-class girl from Kent’ Sarah (Georgia Mabel Clarke), and Peter has feckless loser Luke (Andi Jashy), whom Peter hopes to transform into a winner so that Peter himself can win the award for Bystander of the Year, and make up for losing a chess contest decades earlier.



Hilarious rivalry ensues, as misanthropic Frank, who can only see the world through ‘Frank-tinted glasses’, sets about, purely for the lulz, undermining Luke’s – and Peter’s – newfound success.

Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/eftv/message

It's the last installment of this week's @EchoChamberFP https://www.instagram.com/echochamberfp/ podcast, and we're getting physical!!!



In 'Part THREE', thanks to Vision Films we have a sports drama, that's all about friendship, relationships, addiction and love. THEN, we conversate with two of the stars, who also were behind directing, writing and producing the feature. Their story goes back over a decade though, as it was sport that brought them together. And since that friendship has helped create an environment which has enabled them to evolve into rising film stars and the support system to create their own vision! We go into this and a LOT more, so chalk up and get ready for another immersive confab!!! Watch the conversation: HERE! https://youtu.be/g7KcAASclJs



'Final Heat' is the feature directorial debut from Jeremy Gimenez, which he also wrote. The married owners of a struggling functional fitness gym, Cam (Brad Benedict) & Laney (Molly Cerne) have the perfect plan to raise money: they’ll bring in the best athletes to compete in "The Games" to win the huge cash prize. They record everything documentary-style as the athletes confess their secrets. As the team trains, egos clash, tempers flare, and a figure (Jeremy Gimenez) from the past threatens to destroy the team, the gym, and their lives.
