In this episode, we welcome Bindu Madhava, formerly of AV Tech at Stanford Medicine and currently a senior digital media specialist at Stanford EdTech. We discuss his upbringing in Bangalore, India when 16mm and video cameras first arrived, the cinematographer who became his first mentor, the Bollywood and Hollywood films that have inspired him, and the "Hollywood Dream." We also talk about his reasons for emigrating to the United states, his professional career leading up to Stanford, the projects he has been recently working on, and his process for incorporating storytelling into everything he does.
Our Treat of the Day concerns the Facebook group, Every Spongebob Frame in Order, and the joy that it provides William while quarantining. This leads to a discussion about the online communities that have sustained us, from virtual theatre to TV-show-related memes to online film blogs, not just during shelter-in-place, but throughout our lives.
