Today we bring you the sixth episode of the Steal This Show podcast, with feature guest Lance Weiler. In this episode we discuss upsides of piracy and how digital distribution revolutionized indie filmmaking.

steal240This special episode features Lance Weiler – writer, director & experience designer. Lance is the creator of movies The Last Broadcast (1998) and Head Trauma (2005). WIRED magazine named him ‘one of 25 people helping to re-invent entertainment and change the face of Hollywood.’

As well as zooming through Lance’s career, Jamie and Lance discuss how digital distribution revolutionized indie filmmaking, while filmmakers resisted it; how Lance sees piracy as a positive; the challenges for discovery and attention when everyone’s a creator; and how to hijack Sherlock Holmes.
