I am really eager to see what this guy does next, I think he is bound for big things. I was especially surprised when I found out he is only 23 years old!!! Anyway, here are the clips:

I asked Roger about a lot of stuff, but basically just tried to get his take on making a career in film, and some of the work he has done so far. This is the first ever podcast from Film School Student.
