Welcome to special features were Micheal sits down with film technicians , actors, writers, directors and more and pulls the curtain back on the magic of filmmaking
This week The Reel Debaters starts Doug Morrow, owner of Character Illusions Inc Make Up Studio and a 30+ year veteran in the movie industry doing beauty and character makeup, puppets and prosthetics.
Doug shares stories about set life, working on such movies as Jumanji (1995) and Happy Gilmore (1996), what it takes to "make it" (pun intended) in the movie industry and coming home to Manitoba which is now a hot spot for filming in Canada and so much more we are more than likely turning this into a 2 part episode. Kind, humorous and full of knowledge, in short, Doug is the perfect guest. Joining him in the living room are Jimmy Skinner, Micheal Petrow and Mark Cowell.

Welcome to The Reel Debaters, where real life meets reel life...
Each week you’ll hear 4 debaters sit down as they come up with a new tussle where they compare, contrast and insult each other with their takes for your listening pleasure. They'll either insert themselves into a story or see how they fare or bring the characters into real life scenarios that make less than no sense. As a bonus you'll get access from within the film industry and listen to "reel talks" about our favorite moments, scenes and stories.
Tune Thursday for a new episode and if there’s something you wanna hear beaten to death send us an email thereeldebaters@gmail.com
