BYOL 59 - JAMES E. OXFORD

INTERVIEW WITH AN OUTLAW!

This week Dave chats with executive film producer James E. Oxford (The Demon Deep in Oklahoma, The Taking of Ezra Bodine)!

James is the co-founder of Watergun Outlaw Productions, a company that has found tremendous success as an independent film company in a short period of time. He tells Dave about the company, how he splits responsibilities with his husband and fellow co-founder Lance R. Marshall, and how they've managed to have their films screened at top festivals including Sundance and Cannes. He also talks about how he and Lance make films on their own terms, how his own financial background (and lack of artistic expertise) gives the company an edge, and how his unique upbringing on the cattle ranches of Oklahoma is surprisingly similar to filmmaking!

Plus, Dave talks about how a simple LIKE got him an audition, and how using social media in a positive way can open up opportunites!
