    Len Sanqui: behind the lense

    Len has been doing photography since they were old enough to handle their mom's camera — and now they're branching out into freelancing, documentary, and maybe even some zine-making. We talked about building communities in new places and the power of media to connect people. You can check out Len's photo documentary project here. She keeps her Instagram up to date with her current work and freelancing availability.  Find the SPNN podcast on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and at our website.

    Katherine Vo and Charlie McCarron: Film Score Fest

    UPDATE: The 2023 Film Score Fest screening will be on June 10th at 7 p.m. at the History Theatre. Selected films will be announced and tickets will go on sale on April 17th. Check out the Film Score Fest website for the info.  Film Score Fest is pretty unique. The annual festival randomly pairs filmmakers and composers  to make a five-minute film and score, and selected films are screened with a live orchestra in downtown St. Paul. This year, five BIPOC creators earned scholarships to make films for the festival. Today, we’re talking to Katherine and Charlie about what it takes to pull off this event — and why it's so cool to have an accessible, collaborative celebration of film and music. You can keep up with Film Score Fest at their website and Facebook.   Find the SPNN podcast on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and at our website.
