Zac Cino: The Actor-Director's Lens

Want to connect with Tj & Plaideau? Send us a text message.

From childhood VHS movie-making to crafting indie films with a distinctive voice, actor-director Zac Cino takes us behind the scenes of his creative journey on this episode of NOLA Film Scene.

Zac shares the story of how a prop gun pressed against an actor's face created an unexpectedly authentic moment - which leads to a fascinating discussion about unconventional directing techniques, including how asking an actor about Spider-Man right before a take can elicit the perfect confused expression.
