Episode 75 - Alex Oshmyansky

Thursday Aug 11, 2016

On today's episode, I talked with filmmaker, Alex Oshmyansky!

Alex was on the show today to talk about his debut film, "Career Opportunites in Organized Crime". This film is the first ever feature-length virtual reality film, but before I could talk to him about the film, we had to talk with him about his backstory.

Alex has such an incredible story before he even made the jump into filmmaking. Alex graduated college at the age of 18, earned a PHD in Mathematics, went on to Medical School at Duke, and then did his residency at Harvard Medical School and John Hopkins University.

I talked with Alex about graduating at 18, what the experience was like to be so young finishing college, missing out on the normal high school & college experience, getting into film, what goes into making a VR film and so much more.

A huge Thanks to Alex Oshmyansky for taking the time out of his incredibly busy schedule to talk with us about "Career Opportunities in Organized Crime". The film goes live on Wednesday, August 31st on Reelhouse.org for iOS, Android, and on your desktop. I am really excited to finally see this film and get the full VR experience with it. Make sure to check it out and follow Alex on the links available on onthemicpodcast.com.
