Author: Marc Preston Productions, LLC March 25, 2022 Duration: 1:22:17
This week on Story & Craft, I sit down with movie director, Ariel Vromen.  Ariel is an intriguing guy with a great story.  He has directed movies such as Criminal, The Iceman and The Angel.  He has directed some of Hollywood’s biggest names, such as Kevin Costner, Ryan Reynolds, Gal Gadot, Chris Evans, Wynona Ryder and Gary Oldman.  Beyond his work as a director, he has also established a name for himself as a DJ, and regularly plays for audiences around the world.  We cover everything, from his time as a soldier in the Israeli Defense Forces, to the time he took Kevin Costner to an techno concert, to his thoughts on the craft of directing movies, and how movie making will evolve in the coming years.  It’s a great chat with a creative and cool guy with an intriguing story to tell.SHOW HIGHLIGHTS0:09:22 - Taking a Creative Path in Life0:18:57 - Challenges of Filmmaking and Changing Landscape0:24:53 - The Changing Landscape of Content Creation0:34:43 - Streaming's Role in the Film Industry0:44:30 - Build Trust, Work With a-List Actors0:51:27 - Casting and the Importance of Villains0:59:49 - Discussion on Cinematography and Personal Influences1:11:50 - Reflecting on Life, Music, and MoviesListen and subscribe on your favorite podcast app.  Also, check out the show and sign up for the newsletter at www.storyandcraftpod.com. ...#podcast #interview #ArielVromen #Director #MovieMaking #DJ #Techno #Trance #TheIceManMovie #CriminalMovie #TheAngelMovie #Netflix #actor #acting #actorslife #storyandcraft #voiceover #voiceactor

For over thirty years, Marc Preston has worked from both sides of the microphone, building a career as an actor and a nationally syndicated radio host. That unique perspective informs every conversation on Story and Craft with Marc Preston. This isn't a standard interview podcast; it's a series of deep, meandering, and genuinely connective dialogues. Marc's endless curiosity drives him to explore not just what his guests have done, but how and why they do it. He sits down with a compelling roster of creative minds-actors from film and television, voiceover artists, writers, musicians, and cultural influencers-to unpack the fascinating, often unseen work behind their public personas. Listeners are brought directly into a discussion that feels like eavesdropping on a great chat between old friends, one that naturally veers from technical craft to personal philosophy. The result is consistently entertaining and offers unexpected insights into the worlds of comedy, culture, and storytelling. Each episode of this podcast reveals the nuanced decisions, the years of practice, and the personal stories that shape art and performance. You'll hear about the awkward auditions, the breakthrough moments, and the simple love for the work that sustains a creative life. It’s that blend of professional insight and human experience that defines the podcast, making it a rewarding listen for anyone interested in the intersection of art, society, and the discipline required to excel.
