Full Episode Transcript
In this update episode, Reginald Titus Jr. addresses the podcast's hiatus, shares personal and professional updates, outlines plans for resuming weekly episodes, and discusses future content strategy for Filmmaker Commentary.

Introduction and Acknowledgment of Hiatus
Reginald Titus Jr.: Hello everyone. Thank you for tuning in to Filmmaker Commentary. I'm Reginald Titus Jr. I wanted to quickly give you just a few updates. We are, I know we've kind of been A-WOL with our episodes for quite some time. During the 2020 kind of threw our whole scheduling off. And in that time, we've had some big updates in our own personal lives. But I did want to reach out to you to say that we have not abandoned our podcast and we are hoping going into the next quarter that our goal is to have, going back to a weekly podcast where we're delivering every single week, like when we first started, and having a consistent day where we're recording and a consistent day where we're actually publishing and releasing to the public.

Commitment and Future Schedule
Reginald Titus Jr.: We have been recording during our downtime. We have about 20 episodes that are just like on backlog, but because how busy our lives have gotten, we have haven't gotten around to editing and publishing those. So, I wanted to apologize for that, but just kind of let you know that we are not abandoning this podcast. We are aware where we would like to go in the vision for the podcast and new launches for our for the Filmmaker Commentary brand. But I want to say thank you all for sticking with us, listen to the older episodes. We have quite a bit, but I wanted to at least give you an update and let you know kind of where we're at. We are not abandoning the podcast, but we are looking on taking it to the next level.

Seeking Production Support
Reginald Titus Jr.: And I know the next level is also finding a producing partner that can help us push them out quicker because our schedules have gotten busier as we've gotten more opportunities. We still don't want to fall behind on pushing out the podcast, so we are going to definitely need help editing and producing our episodes. If anybody out there is listening and you know somebody that works in the audio and producing field, that would be interested in partnering with us, let us know. You can reach us at Filmmaker Commentary at Instagram or on Facebook, Filmmaker Commentary.

Content Strategy and Outlook
Reginald Titus Jr.: Again, I definitely appreciate it. Thanks for sticking with us and just want to let you know that we have some big and better things coming up in the next quarter of 2021 for Filmmaker Commentary. Stay tuned for any of our for our newer episodes. It may seem kind of weird. Some on some of the episodes that we drop, we're deciding on if we're going to leave the news in or not. By the time you listen to the episode, the news is going to be quite dated. So, thinking about taking that part out and maybe our opinions on like the reviews from movies that we watch and things like that. We're going to keep in, but probably the news you will see that segment taken out on quite a bit of these episodes because of how dated the news was at the time of recording. But anyway, I appreciate it. You enjoy your March and we'll, hey, don't worry about it. We're going to get right into this thing. Talk to you all later. Thank you so much.
