The Crew Up North Podcast- Producer Justin Kelly
The Crew Up North Podcast with host Jennifer Tocheri takes you inside the world of the Northern Ontario film industry and features one-on-one interviews with some of the talented and hardworking film crew of the Northern Ontario. Many award-winning shows have been produced right here in the North. But not without some grit and perseverance. And maybe a few shadflies. Episodes are released bi-weekly.
Welcome back, Crew!
Producer and Production Manager, Justin Kelly,
joins TCUN and host Jennifer Tocheri for episode 4 to talk about his incredible 30-year career in the film industry!
With tasty sandwiches from local spot Gd2Go, we get into the dynamics of producing films in Northern Ontario.
Justin reveals the skillsets of a good producer, his passion for set safety and
fostering collaboration on set. We also discuss developing the labour pool in
this region, advice for anyone thinking about getting into the industry and
encouragement for those who are already in the grind. Plus, Justin's love
for Northern Ontario and… would a studio really attract more shows here??
Justin Kelly has worked on over a hundred shows including the
Emmy nominated TV series, What We Do in the Shadows and Indie film, Antibirth,
which premiered at Sundance!
It was an honour to have Justin on the show and I certainly learned a lot!
