Anna Keizer and Derek Dehanke are the co-hosts of ‘80s Movie Montage. The idea for the podcast came when they realized just how much they talk – a lot – when watching films from their favorite cinematic era. Their wedding theme was “a light nod to the ‘80s,” so there’s that, too. Both hail from the Midwest but have called Los Angeles home for several years now. Anna is a writer who received her B.A. in Film/Video from Columbia College Chicago and M.A. in Film Studies from Chapman University. Her dark comedy short She Had It Coming was an Official Selection of 25 film festivals with several awards won for it among them. Derek is an attorney who also likes movies. It is a point of pride that most of their podcast episodes are longer than the movies they cover.

The idea for the podcast came when they realized just how much they talk – a lot – when watching films from their favorite cinematic era. Their wedding theme was “a light nod to the ‘80s,” so there’s that, too. Both hail from the Midwest but have called Los Angeles home for several years now. Anna is a writer who received her B.A. in Film/Video from Columbia College Chicago and M.A. in Film Studies from Chapman University. Her dark comedy short She Had It Coming was an Official Selection of 25 film festivals with several awards won for it among them. Derek is an attorney who also likes movies. It is a point of pride that most of their podcast episodes are longer than the movies they cover.

Anna Keizer and Derek Dehanke are the co-hosts of ‘80s Movie Montage. The idea for the podcast came when they realized just how much they talk – a lot – when watching films from their favorite cinematic era. Their wedding theme was “a light nod to the ‘80s,” so there’s that, too. Both hail from the Midwest but have called Los Angeles home for several years now. Anna is a writer who received her B.A. in Film/Video from Columbia College Chicago and M.A. in Film Studies from Chapman University. Her dark comedy short She Had It Coming was an Official Selection of 25 film festivals with several awards won for it among them. Derek is an attorney who also likes movies. It is a point of pride that most of their podcast episodes are longer than the movies they cover.

Anna Keizer and Derek Dehanke are the co-hosts of ‘80s Movie Montage. The idea for the podcast came when they realized just how much they talk – a lot – when watching films from their favorite cinematic era. Their wedding theme was “a light nod to the ‘80s,” so there’s that, too. Both hail from the Midwest but have called Los Angeles home for several years now. Anna is a writer who received her B.A. in Film/Video from Columbia College Chicago and M.A. in Film Studies from Chapman University. Her dark comedy short She Had It Coming was an Official Selection of 25 film festivals with several awards won for it among them. Derek is an attorney who also likes movies. It is a point of pride that most of their podcast episodes are longer than the movies they cover.

Andrea (Andy) Smith Peek is a comedy writer/director/producer/actor/donut eater/lover of cheese/improv artiste/sketch enthusiast/human being trying to survive never-ending existential dread. This may explain why she writes dark sci-fi comedies and why she is eating a donut as she writes this. Andy studied writing and film at Vancouver Film School, Writing for TV at UCLA’s Professional Program, Film Production at UCLA’s Summer Program, and studied improv and sketch with The Second City Conservatory, UCB, and The Groundlings. She has performed at Canada’s Just For Laughs Festival and won a Telus Storyhive grant to produce and direct her short film Married & Isolated, as well as the pilot of her web series See Through Daddy. Her new content creation outlet is character comedy on TikTok: @AndysCharacters. On Dec 10 2018 she won the showcase showdown on The Price is Right, no joke! She worked as an assistant on A&E’s Ruby Laundry Series and as a script/clearances coordinator on Netflix’s Emmy-nominated MAID. She currently lives in Victoria, BC and working as a drama teacher for middle school students who make her laugh every day!

David Michor grew up in a video store and knew right away that he wanted to be a filmmaker. He started making movies when he picked up a video camera at just 7 years old, and he hasn’t stopped ever since. David attended film school at Columbia College Chicago and majored in Directing. For his final semester, he was chosen out of a large pool of applicants to attend the Semester in LA Program. Studying on the CBS Radford Lot, he honed his craft and got a job in the mail room. This eventually led to a writer’s assistant position on the WB sitcom, “The Help,” working directly for the show’s creator, Ron Leavitt, who also created “Married with Children” and “Unhappily Ever After.” David went on to write and direct several short films that premiered at the Columbia College Film Festival held at Sundance, including “H1N1” about a zombie apocalypse, “Snooze, Charlie” about an addiction to the snooze button, and “The Hoarder” about a demonic lamp that attacks its possessor. David is currently developing his feature directorial debut and resides in Los Angeles as a writer, director, and editor. In the meantime, you can catch his cinematic TikToks starring his baby and his dog at @albertsbucketlist.

Anna Keizer and Derek Dehanke are the co-hosts of ‘80s Movie Montage. The idea for the podcast came when they realized just how much they talk – a lot – when watching films from their favorite cinematic era. Their wedding theme was “a light nod to the ‘80s,” so there’s that, too. Both hail from the Midwest but have called Los Angeles home for several years now. Anna is a writer who received her B.A. in Film/Video from Columbia College Chicago and M.A. in Film Studies from Chapman University. Her dark comedy short She Had It Coming was an Official Selection of 25 film festivals with several awards won for it among them. Derek is an attorney who also likes movies. It is a point of pride that most of their podcast episodes are longer than the movies they cover.

As an experienced producer having created content all over the world from the lush jungles of the Congo to the paved jungles of Times Square, Michael Anderson has spent years building his career in a variety of roles within production across commercials, branded content, documentaries, and narrative features. As the current Head of Global Production at Beautiful Destinations and having been the Senior Executive Producer at Cutaway Creative, Michael has worked with clients spanning Fortune 500 companies to Global Nonprofits and National Ministries of Tourism to create award-recognized projects. Outside of short-form content, Michael is an energetic contributor to both on-and-off-Broadway as well as independent feature films having successfully produced and/or directed films including: A Southern Haunting, Manson Family Vacation, G.B.F., He’s Way More Famous Than You, Somewhere Slow, Exquisite Corpse and several more.

Owen Croak is one of those screenwriters who thought he was too responsible to be a “real” writer. Then he had emergency surgery, got fired and decided he’d rather spend his time writing about time-travelers, aliens and superheroes. His work has placed in the 2022 Creative Screenwriting Unique Voices competition and in the Austin Film Festival Script competition.

Anna Keizer and Derek Dehanke are the co-hosts of ‘80s Movie Montage. The idea for the podcast came when they realized just how much they talk – a lot – when watching films from their favorite cinematic era. Their wedding theme was “a light nod to the ‘80s,” so there’s that, too. Both hail from the Midwest but have called Los Angeles home for several years now. Anna is a writer who received her B.A. in Film/Video from Columbia College Chicago and M.A. in Film Studies from Chapman University. Her dark comedy short She Had It Coming was an Official Selection of 25 film festivals with several awards won for it among them. Derek is an attorney who also likes movies. It is a point of pride that most of their podcast episodes are longer than the movies they cover.

David Perez Babich is an award winning actor, director, and musician who thrives on story-making in all forms. Recent television appearances include Grown-ish, American Crime Story: Impeachment, Liza on Demand, and American Housewife.  He will be appearing on Season 2 of Killing It to be released later this year.  His Tech-Horror short film, A Unique Opportunity was a nominee in Atlanta Shorts Festival and a Platinum winner in Spotlight Film Festival in 2021.  His current projects include a mysterious silent short film about past lives and a tennis drama.

Some say Jeff Fong sprouted out of the womb with a tennis racket in his left hand and a small roll of black and white film in his right… but this is not certain. Others believe Jeff sat up and asked for a notepad to immediately begin writing the stories that had been rattling around in his brain for the past 9 months, but many think this is silly and potentially untrue. One fact we believe comes from truth is that the next 37 years were spent honing his craft of screenwriting and directing in order to tell the stories that mean the world to him while also creating better representation for his Asian American half, along with anyone he believes is underrepresented in the media. Today, one might find Jeff working with his production company in Sacramento, California, "The Film Squad," writing his next feature script, pitching said to get funding, or gearing up to shop his ideas around Los Angeles to gain interest. He hopes to keep telling his silly stories until the days of old and senile.

The idea for the podcast came when they realized just how much they talk – a lot – when watching films from their favorite cinematic era. Their wedding theme was “a light nod to the ‘80s,” so there’s that, too. Both hail from the Midwest but have called Los Angeles home for several years now. Anna is a writer who received her B.A. in Film/Video from Columbia College Chicago and M.A. in Film Studies from Chapman University. Her dark comedy short She Had It Coming was an Official Selection of 25 film festivals with several awards won for it among them. Derek is an attorney who also likes movies. It is a point of pride that most of their podcast episodes are longer than the movies they cover.

Their wedding theme was “a light nod to the ‘80s,” so there’s that, too. Both hail from the Midwest but have called Los Angeles home for several years now. Anna is a writer who received her B.A. in Film/Video from Columbia College Chicago and M.A. in Film Studies from Chapman University. Her dark comedy short She Had It Coming was an Official Selection of 25 film festivals with several awards won for it among them. Derek is an attorney who also likes movies. It is a point of pride that most of their podcast episodes are longer than the movies they cover.

Ian Tan hails from the Midwest and graduated from Washington University in St. Louis, MO. After graduating with a BS in Biology, he attended Florida State University for his MFA in Film Production and Television Recording. He moved out to Los Angeles, CA, in early 2002 and has been working as a television picture editor ever since.  Some of his more well-known works include CSI: CRIME SCENE INVESTIGATION, MARVEL’S CLOAK & DAGGER, LOVECRAFT COUNTRY and the upcoming Netflix remake of AVATAR: THE LAST AIRBENDER.

David Michor grew up in a video store and knew right away that he wanted to be a filmmaker. He started making movies when he picked up a video camera at just 7 years old, and he hasn’t stopped ever since. David attended film school at Columbia College Chicago and majored in Directing. For his final semester, he was chosen out of a large pool of applicants to attend the Semester in LA Program. Studying on the CBS Radford Lot, he honed his craft and got a job in the mail room. This eventually led to a writer’s assistant position on the WB sitcom, “The Help,” working directly for the show’s creator, Ron Leavitt, who also created “Married with Children” and “Unhappily Ever After.” David went on to write and direct several short films that premiered at the Columbia College Film Festival held at Sundance, including “H1N1” about a zombie apocalypse, “Snooze, Charlie” about an addiction to the snooze button, and “The Hoarder” about a demonic lamp that attacks its possessor. David is currently developing his feature directorial debut and resides in Los Angeles as a writer, director, and editor. In the meantime, you can catch his cinematic TikToks starring his baby and his dog at @albertsbucketlist.

Josh Garvin is an independent filmmaker from Long Island raised on John Ford and Howard Hawks. He was the only five-year-old in his life who's favorite movie was "Babes in Toyland" and the only 10-year-old who loved "The Searchers." When he went to film school for his MFA at Columbia College Chicago, he realized that every major interest he had in his life could ultimately be traced back to a movie he'd seen. His (entirely practical) philosophy BA, for example, came about because he fell in love with "Dogma" after seeing it in junior high school. Filmmaking was an inevitability.

Anna Keizer and Derek Dehanke are the co-hosts of ‘80s Movie Montage. The idea for the podcast came when they realized just how much they talk – a lot – when watching films from their favorite cinematic era. Their wedding theme was “a light nod to the ‘80s,” so there’s that, too. Both hail from the Midwest but have called Los Angeles home for several years now. Anna is a writer who received her B.A. in Film/Video from Columbia College Chicago and M.A. in Film Studies from Chapman University. Her dark comedy short She Had It Coming was an Official Selection of 25 film festivals with several awards won for it among them. Derek is an attorney who also likes movies. It is a point of pride that most of their podcast episodes are longer than the movies they cover. 

Adam Gonshorowski is a writer, photographer, and filmmaker from the Cornhusker State of Nebraska where they have "the good life."  In 2014, he founded Kesshi Studios and went to work producing original plays and films, including The Truman Decision, which is about the first 118 days of Harry Truman's presidency and his decision to use the atomic bomb on Japan. The film adaptation is currently in post after a successful play run.  His other projects include Killer Prom, an Agatha Christie meets John Hughes high school whodunit, as well as hours of symphony concerts, chamber music and more for SCSO.LIVE.  Adam is a member of the Writers Guild and Dramatists Guild, and his life ambition is the pursuit of winning an Academy Award; right now he only has a LEGO one because everything is awesome.

Owen Croak is one of those screenwriters who thought he was too responsible to be a “real” writer. Then he had emergency surgery, got fired, and decided he’d rather spend his time writing about time-travelers, aliens, and superheroes. In addition to being published in the Los Angeles Times, his work has placed in the 2022 Creative Screenwriting Unique Voices competition and in the Austin Film Festival Script competition for the last three years in a row.

On a (slightly) lighter note, Chris and his co-writer and producing partner, Bethany Fletcher, are currently in pre-production on their short film, SHARPS, which shows just how far one woman will go to get a wad of $100 bills out of a medical waste disposal container.

The idea for the podcast came when they realized just how much they talk – a lot – when watching films from their favorite cinematic era. Their wedding theme was “a light nod to the ‘80s,” so there’s that, too. Both hail from the Midwest but have called Los Angeles home for several years now. Anna is a writer who received her B.A. in Film/Video from Columbia College Chicago and M.A. in Film Studies from Chapman University. Her dark comedy short She Had It Coming was an Official Selection of 25 film festivals with several awards won for it among them. Derek is an attorney who also likes movies. It is a point of pride that most of their podcast episodes are longer than the movies they cover.  

Sara Strange specializes in female-driven comedy and genre-bending films and TV shows. Her feature WHERE THE LOVE-LIGHT GLEAMS was co-written with John Cassavetes Award-winning director Martha Stephens (LAND HO!) and is being produced by Mynette Louie (THE TALE) & Laura Smith (IT FOLLOWS). Her '21 Slamdance finalist feature WELCOME HOME is being produced by Nick Moceri (A GIRL WALKS HOME ALONE AT NIGHT).

Anna Keizer and Derek Dehanke are the co-hosts of ‘80s Movie Montage. The idea for the podcast came when they realized just how much they talk – a lot – when watching films from their favorite cinematic era. Their wedding theme was “a light nod to the ‘80s,” so there’s that, too. Both hail from the Midwest but have called Los Angeles home for several years now. Anna is a writer who received her B.A. in Film/Video from Columbia College Chicago and M.A. in Film Studies from Chapman University. Her dark comedy short She Had It Coming was an Official Selection of 25 film festivals with several awards won for it among them. Derek is an attorney who also likes movies.

Danielle Schwartz is a comedy writer who lives in Los Angeles. She works for Disney and has two cats named Simba and Nala. She really enjoys sitting on the couch with her cats while watching TV, but sometimes she ventures outside for a brief walk.

After running Movietime Video for 15 years, Dan and Nancy Morrow weren't sure what their next adventure would be for the 1908 Craftsman house they purchased in 2001. A couple of artist friends told them the building would make a great art gallery and wine tasting room so in July 2016, The Gallery at Ten Oaks was launched. Over 40 artists from Oregon and Washington are represented with over 900 pieces of art to choose from. The Craftsman house is the perfect setting as art can be viewed from the main floor and upstairs - including lit closet areas! Dan and Nancy also founded and ran the McMinnville Short Film Festival for 11 years and are huge movie nerds!

Anna Keizer and Derek Dehanke are the co-hosts of ‘80s Movie Montage. The idea for the podcast came when they realized just how much they talk – a lot – when watching films from their favorite cinematic era. Their wedding theme was “a light nod to the ‘80s,” so there’s that, too. Both hail from the Midwest but have called Los Angeles home for several years now. Anna is a writer who received her B.A. in Film/Video from Columbia College Chicago and M.A. in Film Studies from Chapman University. Her dark comedy short She Had It Coming was an Official Selection of 25 film festivals with several awards won for it among them. Derek is an attorney who also likes movies. It is a point of pride that most of their podcast episodes are longer than the movies they cover.  

Davide Tomei is a production professional based in Los Angeles, working as a production manager by day and moonlighting as an indie line producer. Davide loves a good story, be it a dark, messed-up family drama or a show that’s making his gut hurt from laughing so hard. You can find Davide neck-deep in a Movie Magic budget, a Philadelphia Eagles beat article, or out on a walk around town with his girlfriend, Lacey, and their Dog, Oliver.

Anna Keizer and Derek Dehanke are the co-hosts of ‘80s Movie Montage. The idea for the podcast came when they realized just how much they talk – a lot – when watching films from their favorite cinematic era. Their wedding theme was “a light nod to the ‘80s,” so there’s that, too. Both hail from the Midwest but have called Los Angeles home for several years now. Anna is a writer who received her B.A. in Film/Video from Columbia College Chicago and M.A. in Film Studies from Chapman University. Her dark comedy short She Had It Coming was an Official Selection of 25 film festivals with several awards won for it among them. Derek is an attorney who also likes movies. It is a point of pride that most of their podcast episodes are longer than the movies they cover.

Krishna Smitha is an actress-producer based in Los Angeles working on stage and film. She is a company member at The Road Theatre and a founding member of The Artists Playground. She works regularly in television, most notably recurring on Seasons 5 and 6 of Silicon Valley. Krishna loves writing, producing, and creating all sorts of stuff with other artists, whether it be films, theatre, or podcasts! www.KrishnaSmitha.com

Anna is a writer who received her B.A. in Film/Video from Columbia College Chicago and M.A. in Film Studies from Chapman University. Her dark comedy short She Had It Coming was an Official Selection of 25 film festivals with several awards won for it among them. Derek is an attorney who also likes movies. It is a point of pride that most of their podcast episodes are longer than the movies they cover.  

Daniel Strange first established himself as a unique comedic voice as the Director/Editor of "Between Two Ferns with Zach Galifianakis", and has gone on to a varied career: directing 100+ commercials, writing video games ("Spider-Man: Shattered Dimensions"), producing shows ("Written by a Kid", "KISStory"), even giving a presentation about his animated short, "Scary Smash," at Walt Disney Animation.
