About The Show
A filmmaker-to-filmmaker conversation about the work behind the work.
Past Present Feature goes beyond the standard film-promo conversation, giving directors room to talk about process, pressure, influence, and the cinema that shaped their work.
Hosted By Marcus Mizelle
Interviews shaped by someone who knows what it takes to get a film made.
Marcus is an Emmy-winning director, producer, and editor whose work moves between narrative film, branded storytelling, documentary, and conversations with filmmakers about the choices behind the finished frame.
On Past Present Feature, Marcus approaches interviews from inside the craft. The questions come from a working understanding of directing, editing, collaboration, limitations, festivals, audiences, and the fragile middle space where a film becomes what it is.
