Filmmaking Central Podcast was one of the first podcasts on filmmaking and has had a solid audience since then. For those in the dark about a podcast it’s a show prerecorded that can be played on a computer, streamed from the website itself, or downloaded to portable media players like Apple’s iPod or Sony’s PSP.

The Filmmaking Central Podcast has interviews with top industry players like Academy Award nominated screenwriter Stephen J Rivele, Casting guru Valerie McCaffrey, and award winning actor Jon Polito. The show also reviews new products that listeners can use in their filmmaking process. Sponsoring the show are industry heavies Final Draft, Red Giant Software, Maxon Cinema 4D, and FrameForge 3D Studio.

The new site will soon include a video pitch nite where members can pitch their projects, screenplays and more via Skype to Dave and industry guests. “I like to educate our members who are interested in how films get made, this is after all a business” Dave said.

The show and the site are completely free. Members can download the show from the site by subscribing to it on iTunes.

The site has a very active forum as well. Members really try to help each other out. Along with many topics on filmmaking, Dave has monthly giveaways. “I try to help new filmmakers out whenever I can, its just good karma!” says Basulto.
