On this special catch-up episode of In Love with the Process, Mike pulls back the curtain on something deeply personal, the making of his upcoming film.
For the first time, Mike breaks down the real process he and his writing partner Will Simmons used to bring this story to life. From early conversations to building treatments, to the detailed director’s prep that turns ideas into something you can actually see and feel.
This isn’t theory. This is the work.
Mike dives into how he approaches storyboarding, how he visualizes a film before a camera ever rolls, and the skills he’s developed over decades to translate emotion into images.
But this episode goes deeper than process.
Mike takes a moment to reflect on the fact that he’s never been this close to making a film at this level. He looks back on the last 25 years, the people, the risks, the failures, and the lessons that all led to this moment.
It’s honest. It’s raw. It’s the kind of episode that reminds you why you started.
If you’re a filmmaker, or just someone chasing something big, this one hits.
Music: Mitch Murder & Code Elektro
