Welcome to our interview series with filmmakers with film projects in the 2021 Santa Fe Film Festival.
In this interview, we are speaking with director, Lucas Mathew Stein, who has worked on movie sets and television shows for the past 21 years in various departments, learning the craft that he uses to create concept films from ideas to help bring them to life. Of course, Stein doesn’t just direct, he is also a well-known photographer in Albuquerque with a passion for creating stories and supporting storytellers, no matter the medium. Find out more about him here https://www.lucasstein.com.
This short film is also the first step in the storytelling process. “It was an honor to be asked by Dennis Blanford, Sergeant Hammer, to shoot the prelude to his movie. We look forward to producing the full pilot episode soon,” said Stein.
