Customer Reviews
Really informative, and tremendously listenable!
What's great about this is that it's smart and educational, but not too intense that it makes for a difficult listen. I'm a big fan, and eager to see more of this podcast from the Jacob Burns Film Center!
5 stars!
Great podcast. This successfully conveys the feel you get from going to the center or arts lab. Easy to listen to but educational. Keep it up! :D
