Living Legend Steve Panama, Longtime Head of Kaleidoscope Films Group

Trailer Geeks and Teaser Gods

Steve Panama was not only the CEO and Creative Director of Kaleidoscope, which established the standard for what a modern trailer shop could be before there really was such a thing as trailer companies; he is also the trailblazer who was the first in the industry to transition from film to non-linear computer editing systems, as well as the first to bring fiber into the process as a way for creative execs at the studios to collaborate in real time with their creative partners on the agency side. On this episode you'll hear about all of that as well as stories about the many films he worked on and all the other people who Steve worked with along the way and made the trailer industry what it is to this day.
