In this exciting episode of the BTS Creative Academy, I, your host Martin Colton, dive deep into the world of independent film with two incredibly talented guests: the visionary writer and director Leif Johnson, and the brilliant composer Andrew Chappell. 🎥🎶 Today, we explore their latest masterpiece, Mr. Doom. This gripping film takes us to the fringes of society, where life’s rejects, the undesirable, and the debauched live out their days in a haze of bars, hustles, and fleeting moments of glory. 🌟🍻 Mr. Doom tells the story of an unlikely pair on a perilous path of self-destruction, clinging to a bygone lifestyle centered around the green felt of a pool table.

This film is a raw, unfiltered look at the beauty and chaos of living on the edge. 🎱💔 Leif Johnson shares his unique approach to storytelling, emphasizing the importance of strong sound design, vibrant colors, and dynamic editing. Andrew Chappell complements this vision with a powerful musical score that brings the film’s gritty world to life. 🎨🎵 Andrew Chappell, with over 20 years of experience in the music and audio industry, has worked as a writer, composer, artist, performer, producer, and engineer.
