Filmmaker Spotlight: Anders Overgaard

This is something new I’m introducing on my blog but I believe will be beneficial to others.

It’s called FILMMAKER SPOTLIGHT.

Every month or so I will profile a filmmaker who’s movies and body of work impress me. They don’t necessarily have to be well known or making big Hollywood blockbusters. I will simply focus on individuals who display extraordinary passion, talent and commitment towards filmmaking (either shortfilms, documentaries or features).

For my first FILMMAKER SPOTLIGHT I’d like to profile…Anders Overgaard.

I recently connected with Anders Overgaard, who lives in Norway. The best way to describe Anders’ filmmaking…pure genius. This guy is creating kick-ass films by myself (one person crew) using his friends as actors. I highly recommend you take a few minutes to watch his DOP demo reel and film “The Guy With the Invisible Gun” below which he directed.

Also, you can learn more about Anders by visiting his website  www.axp.no.

ATTENTION: Ian Agard dot Com gets over 1,000 unique visitors each month and many of my website readers are film producers and established film industry individuals. The FILMMAKER SPOTLIGHT is a great opportunity to showcase your filmmaking talents to potential film financiers. Also, as a film producer myself I’m always on the lookout to work with other passionate film directors and screenwriters. So, if you have a demo reel, Youtube clip or website that showcases your work. Contact me and hopefully I can profile you on my next FILMMAKER SPOTLIGHT.

Lastly, it is also nice to get feedback. So if you enjoyed Anders’ work, go ahead and  leave a comment below in the reply box.
