Steve Squall - Niche (Film Director)
In this week’s episode we had the pleasure of sitting down with Steve Squall. He is a writer, photographer, filmmaker, and all-around talented artist. During our conversation we discussed Steve’s love for film and how he started from meager beginnings, splicing together video tapes and creating wonderfully unique pieces with his buddies. We also converse about the difficulties and pangs of being a director. He offers insights on how tough it can be to maneuver through the cinematic world where egos and artistic difference can be problematic. He elaborated on how he manages to do so with empathy and patience. We also talked about Steve’s inspirations for capturing images and stepping behind the camera which included some of the usual suspects like Star Wars, Jurassic Park, and any of the works from Quentin Tarantino. He also spoke on how the world inspires his every creation. I found our conversation to be light-hearted and hilarious. Steve is an incredibly humble and talented human and I hope you enjoy our chat.
