Devin Montgomery: Master of Shout Outs

Send Studio Toot 'n Scoot a Text Message! We hang with actor and filmmaker Devin Montgomery and dig into how he stops waiting for permission, builds Monsters Within from a personal core, and learns every step of the indie film process by doing the work. We also spiral into community talk, post-production realities, and the kind of chaotic side segments that keep our brains broken in the best way.  • Devin’s Air Force upbringing and how it shapes discipline and creativity  • Starting acting later, training hard, and turning auditions into momentum  • The 2020 reset and the decision to create instead of waiting  • The origin of Monsters Within and using horror to explore PTSD and trauma  • Making shorts and features with tiny crews, limited locations, and real constraints  • Dealing with flaky collaborators, protecting integrity, and finishing what you start  • Film festival politics, building an audience, and landing streaming distribution  • What makes a horror movie work, fear on screen vs fear in your head  • Tulsa vs OKC film community and why supportive networks matter  • Post-production lessons on sound, foley, color grading, storage, and workflow  • AI visualization tools, gear rabbit holes, and staying ready with classes and stunts  • Toilet talks and TikTok talent show reactions that go completely off the rails  Like subscribe  Comment  Visit BlendersEyewear.com and use the code: LUWF at check out to receive a sweet 16% discount on your total purchase price!
