Episode 20: The Next Big Damn Chapter Begins
After more than a decade, Michael and Logan are stepping back onto set — and they’re bringing Big Damn Films into a bold new era.
Their latest episode of The Big Damn Podcast dives into why they’re making Arbor Day: The Root of Evil — a micro-budget horror anthology featuring six indie directors, one terrifying new villain, and a plan to build the kind of loyal, thousand-true-fan audience that keeps indie films alive.
They reflect on lessons learned from their cult hit Browncoats: Redemption, the excitement (and nerves) of returning to pre-production, and how family now plays a role on set. They also share how Big Damn Films is evolving beyond single projects to become a sustainable, creator-friendly production and distribution hub.
Fans can expect:
Behind-the-scenes shoot diaries starting this October
Costume and FX tests, director interviews, and production breakdowns
Updates on other Big Damn projects like The Fright Before Christmas 2 and Z*Con
“We’ve proven that what seems impossible in indie filmmaking can be done — from making Browncoats: Redemption a globally known film to supporting new creators. Now we’re focused on building a sustainable, self-powered ecosystem for indie storytellers and the audiences who crave something real.” – Michael & Logan
