Episode 8 - If they want Scare Me to be seen by anyone (other than their families) they need distribution. And for that, getting into a festival would surely help. Luckily, Brendan Banks’ 2-minute trailer gets a shocking level of interest from Shudder and the film lands a coveted premiere at Sundance in a haunted theater. Lean in as the MCS crew struggles to find their footing amongst the Hollywood elite, while a buzz starts to build around Scare Me. Grab a drink at the premier party, and join host Aaron Kheifest as he takes you to Park City Utah and beyond, along with next steps for Josh Ruben, Aya Cash, and Chris Redd in the season finale of MAKE COOL SHIT.

EPISODE 7 - Good news: the movie is all shot! Bad news: there’s no money to edit it. And with Josh having cashed in his 401K, Scare Me is in danger of dying in post-production limbo. Meet editor Patrick Lawrence in his Ghostbusters-laden den, learn the importance of audio with sound designers/mixers John Moros and Ian Stynes of Great City Post, and hear composer Chris Maxwell try to one-up the greats. Plus, it’s time for the first test screenings and ooooh boy do people have opinions! Join host Aaron Kheifets as he leads you through post-production and beyond on Episode 7 of MAKE COOL SHIT.

Episode 6 - The days are long, conditions are rough, and our drill sergeant (1st AD Jay Williams) has left production. But the show must go on, and the final shoot day will be a doozy. We move locations for a demonic song and dance number, and Josh’s nerves get to him while Chris Redd has to teach him how to dance. Meet composer Chris Maxwell, Laurent Rejto and Sage Higgins of the Hudson Valley Film Commission, along with the ever-charming owner of the sound stage, Dean Holterman, as he recalls his influence on pop culture.
