EP. 1896: Filmmaker/Stunt Peformer Kent Lloyd (USE YOUR WORDS)
Matthew Toffoll chatted with Kent Lloyd about his background in stunt coordination and his short film, "Use Your Words." Kent explained that he started stunt coordination 17 years ago and now owns the only stunt school for film in Utah. He described how "Use Your Words" evolved from a student film project into an original piece after university funding fell through. Kent detailed the film's unique "inside-out" perspective, which was shot entirely on a GoPro Black 13 with unconventional camera angles. He discussed the challenges of the shoot, including actors serving as their own camera and audio operators. Kent also credited Nick Fry for the sound design and Archie Crescento for the music. The two discussed Kent's martial arts training in Krav Maga, Muay Thai, Taekwondo, and jiu-jitsu. Kent shared that he is working on a feature-length script called "Tactical Nanny" with Archie and Monica Moore-Smith. They also discussed the film "Nobody" and the importance of emotional connection in action cinema.
