In this episode, Daren and I sit down (remotely¹) with Blaž Semprimožnik — a Slovenian engineer who invented a new way to shoot movies on regular 35mm film — the kind we buy for our still cameras!
¹ — Please note that this is our first podcast interview — expect some echoes and a few hops around the topic 😅. We’re still learning. That said, the episode delves deep into the inner workings of the camera and Blaž’s ideas behind it. As we warm up, the conversation gets more interesting!
