Meet Filmmaker Jude Rawlins from the U.K. to Making Movies in Iowa

Tuesday May 16, 2023
This was one of those "out of the blue" connections that we really love. Several weeks ago I was contacted by a former guest of the News Hour, Nancy Vetter, who told me about a man who had moved from the United Kingdom to Marshalltown, Iowa and was making some really good independent films. We followed up with Rebecca Haroldson, an Iowan and cast member who took it from there and we met for coffee and this conversation. Jude Rawlins has created a number of films with more coming out soon and he uses all Iowa talent and tells us...why. Here we touch on his films, his creative ideas and, of course, the business side of making independent films. You're going to enjoy meeting Jude Rawlins...
