Thirteen and 1/2 Questions with Director Mike Goubeaux

For the continuation of our Thirteen and 1/2 Questions series, we recently caught up with an enthusiastic Mike Goubeaux coming down from the excitement of being a finalist in the Doritos Crash the Super Bowl Contest. His winning spot was featured in a previous Video Militia article. Mike's story is becoming increasingly common as high-end production becomes more and more attainable to the independent filmmaker, first brought on by a revolution in desktop post-production and in recent years with cameras finally becoming affordable. Like many featured here at Video Militia, Mike represents the future face of filmmaking, rooted in DIY skills that make him savvy with every aspect of the process from principle to post.
