Episode 64
Quiet on the set! Fresh off the premier of his zombie apocalypse film Decade of the Dead at the Hawaii International Film Festival, Fairai hopped over from Oahu to talk story about his life as a filmmaker. We touch on DotD being a Hawaii-based production with a predominately local cast and crew, he really emphasizes the need to uplift local filmmakers and film economy in Hawaii. He also indulges me with his Mount Rushmore of favorite movies which was a lot of fun because you can always tell a lot about a person by the movies they love. His recall and knowledge of the history and operation of the film industry was on full display in this one. Punch it, Chewie!
