Film Sense

A lot has changed for actor Misty Rosas since she portrayed two instantly iconic characters on "The Mandalorian"... Kuiil, the wise Ugnaught, and the endearing Frog Lady.  You could even say, "The Force is strong with this one." And you'd be right.

When a filmmaker enjoys a certain amount of success, it most likely means they have some fans that have rallied around their work.  In this new age of branding, however, a true fan has become a much bigger part of the filmmaking process. 

Filmmakers CHRIS MANCINI and GARY DEOCAMPO join us in a discussion about the role of fans in our lives and work.

Fans are more than just our audience.  They can also finance a project via crowdfunding or promote a movie thanks to word of mouth on social networks.  The dark side of fandom is that those same supporters can also be a destructive force.

Listen to some of our experiences with fans and ways to build a beautiful friendship.
