Faith-Based Film: Paul Long Seeks Direction, Not Perfection
Paul Long, founder and president of Kappa Studios, shares his thoughts on not just post production but also faith-based filmmaking and even faith.
Paul Long is a native Angelino but not a native post guy. His first college experience was for architecture. It wasn’t until a bit later in life that he got into post-production and eventually founded Kappa Studios (you know it, down on the corner on Magnolia). On this episode, Paul shares the genesis of Kappa, from the early days through to today and their current slate of projects, which includes a move into producing faith-based films. After all of that, we dive into the fishbowl and pull until our hearts content.

Faith-Based Film: Sonja Piper Dosti Heard The Best Pitch At Age 8
Sonja Piper Dosti found her faith at 8 years old and never turned her back on it, even through a long and successful career in filmmaking. How does that work? Listen and find out!
Sonja didn’t grow up a Christian; she discovered her faith at 8 when a stranger introduced her to The Bible. She’s held that faith close through her life, even as she moved through a career in film. We talk about the gap between the quiet austerity of religion and how that squares with a career in the film industry, which isn’t exactly known for its quiet austerity. We also take a swim in The Fishbowl and answer some humdingers from that arena. And, of course, empathy!
