$3/mo$$3 - The Cutting RoomAd-free episodes and early access, plus the complete back catalogue in one place. If you listen to everything anyway, this is the tidy version — no mid-roll breaks, and episodes land in your feed before they go public.
$6/moThe Archive — $6/monthEverything in The Cutting Room, plus the two things that don't exist anywhere else:Commentary episodes. I write for ILM and Skywalker Sound, and I'll be recording a patrons-only episode about how one of those pieces came together - who I actually sat with, what the room was like, the question that opened them up, and the material that never made the published article.Full transcripts. Every interview I've recorded, searchable. Over 150 conversations with model makers, sound designers, matte painters and production designers, in their own words. Useful if you're researching, writing, or just want to find that one thing someone said.Video Episodes. As long as the interviewees allow it, I'll post video versions here, exclusive for you!
$12/moThe Vault — $12/monthEverything in The Archive, plus the working material behind it all: research documents, location files, stills and paperwork I've dug up over years of chasing this history down. Some of it has never been published anywhere.You also get a vote on who I go after next.
$20/moSecond Unit — $20/monthEverything in The Vault, plus a monthly live Q&A where we can get into whatever you want — the interviews, the research, the documentary, the broadcast day job.And a Special Thanks credit in my feature documentary about Joe Alves, production designer on Jaws and director of Jaws 3-D. The film came directly out of this work — the podcast is how I found the story and how I got the access. Patrons at this tier for six consecutive months appear in the credits.To be clear: the credit is a thank-you, not an investment. There's no financial return or stake in the film, and release timing depends on distribution partners.You also get some merch. The longer you stay, the more you get!
