The Staffa Corner Podcast, Ep. 26 - Filmmaker Rich Ronat & Actress Laura Vale Talk About Their Film CULPRIT
Director Rich Ronat and actress Laura Vale joined me on the latest episode of The Staffa Corner Podcast to discuss their new film, Culprit.
The psychological thriller marks Ronat's directorial debut, with Vale in a starring role. We explored independent filmmaking and strategies for competing with big-budget productions in their conversation. Wanting to maintain "creative purity," the two formed Good Rebel Pictures with Culprit being their first film. We also delved into the delicate balance of being a producer while simultaneously directing and acting.
Amidst a landscape where A-list actor-driven films face challenges, it's inspiring to hear their unwavering passion for indie films that prioritize storytelling, performance, and writing. This dedication to the art of filmmaking is what sets independent filmmakers apart and resonates with audiences who appreciate the craft.
Culprit, a culmination of their passion and dedication, recently had its much-anticipated premiere at the Dances with Films festival in Los Angeles. The film's debut was a momentous occasion, marking the beginning of a new chapter in their filmmaking journey.
